图忆是国防科技大学高云博士2001年就创立的理论。本文向您解说图忆的奥秘，让博士级的思维能力植入您的大脑！如果您的英文比较困难，可以下载带有Google工具栏的Firefox浏览器，利用工具栏的翻译功能，鼠标指向不认识的英文单词时，立即显示出汉语翻译。点击这里看示范！
图忆将课文转变为图形，即将课文中的关键词抽出来，用图标、照片和图画表示，将其在平面上艺术地布局，再用一条曲线将其串连起来，形成一幅画面，从而直观地表达了课文的全貌。学习者的直观思维能力和全局控制能力将由此得到极大锻炼。
读图方法：从实心圆点开始，顺着曲线念，一直到该曲线终结为止。观察带有文字的图大约三到五遍，即可利用不带文字的思维导图进行复述甚至背诵。
特别提示：不要被复杂的表面迷惑，要遵循“总体把握，局部突破”的原则。结合课文，从整体上把握该思维导图的布局，弄清图像的每个区域和课文段落之间的对应关系。
课文原文：
The great ship, Titanic, sailed for New York from Southampton on April 10th,1912. She was carrying 1316 passengers and a crew of 891. Even by modern standards, the 46,000 ton Titanic was a colossal ship. At that time, however, she was not only the largest ship that had ever been built, but was regarded as unsinkable, for she had sixteen water tight compartments. Even if two of these were flooded, she would still be able to float. The tragic sinking of this great liner will always be remembered, for shewent down on her first voyage with heavy loss of life.
Four days after setting out, while the Titanic was sailing across the icy waters of the North Atlantic, a huge iceberg was suddenly spotted by a look out. After the alarm. had been given, the great ship sharply turned sharply to avoid a direct collision. The Titanic turned just in time, narrowly missing the immense wall of ice which rose over 100 feet out of the water beside her. Suddenly, there was a slight trembling sound from below, and the captain went down to see what had happened. The noise had been so faint that no one thought that the ship had been damaged. Below, the captain realized to his horror that the Titanic was sinking rapidly, for five of her sixteen water tight compartments had already been flooded! The order to abandon ship was given and hundreds of people plunged into the icy water. As there were not enough life boats for everybody, 1500 lives were lost.
