特别提示：思维导图的布局和路径的走向比较清楚和熟悉后，才可以忆图。要从整幅图中剥离出图像的框架（即图像的关键图符及其位置和大概关系），要在脑海中浮现这个框架并逐渐细化，要从整体上把握这个图像。
课文原文：
Last week at a dinner party, the hostess asked me to sit next to Mrs. Rumbold. Mrs. Rumbold was a large, unsmiling lady in a tight black dress. She did not even look up when I took my seat beside her. Her eyes were fixed on her plate and in a short time, she was busy eating. I tried to make conversation.
‘A new play is coming to“The Globe”soon,' I said.‘Will you be seeing it?’
‘No,’she answered.
‘Will you be spending your holidays abroad this year?’I asked.
‘NO,’she answered.
‘Will you be staying in England?’I asked.
‘No,’she answered.
In despair, I asked her whether she was enjoying her dinner.
‘Young man,’she answered,‘if you ate more and talked less, we would both enjoy our dinner!’
