People who remember (a)(to~doydoing everything 
they have planned are usually people who organise 
their tasks in some way, and avoid (b) to get/getting

technique, provided you remember (c) to take/taking 
the list with you when you go (d) to shop/shopping.
It’s sometimes possible to remember a fact, for

styles, that some are ‘visual learners’ and others are 
auditory; some are «left-brain» students, others «right-
