Explain what could have contributed to your forgetting the first four options.

Encoding and Retrieving Memory
Mnemonics is the art of helping memory in retaining information using aids such as rhymes, phrases, acronyms, figures, and other tools.
Mnemonics is derived from the Greek words mneme (memory) and mnemon(mindful).Learning Strategies to Your Aid
Mnemonic devices can help you organize otherwise unorganized information such as lists of
words. They can also be used to give prompts to recall specific items associated with broader
terms.
Some Psychology Concepts Can be Simple.
The first letter of each word (except be) prompts you to remember similarity, proximity, closure,
continuity, and symmetry.
Use this sentence to memorize the Gestalt principle of perception.
The method of loci, an ancient imagery technique of the Greeks and Romans, uses visualization
instead of just language. Using this method, you mentally walk around a familiar place (such as
your living room) and imagine that the items you need to remember are located throughout the
room (when actually they are not).
Therefore, bread could be on the television set, apples could be on the coffee table, and milk
could be on the chair. When you need to remember the items, you walk through the environment
and see the objects you need to recall.
Odd combinations tend to be remembered better (for example, apples on the coffee table instead
of apples in a basket on the table.) Many improve-your-memory books and software are based on
mnemonic devices.
