According to a study by Brooks described in your text book, it was easier for participants to remember a sentence to the degree in which it provoked a mental image
 
  (e.g., the 3 is to the right of the 7 versus the 3 is to the slow of 7). It was easier to remember the imaginable sentences because
  a) it is thought that the information is being held in the visuospatial sketchpad component of working memory.
  b) the phonological loop stores information that sounds familiar for longer periods of time.
  c) the participants all tested high on aesthetic ability, hence they all had vivid imaginations.
  d) Brooks had showed the sentences that provoked a strong mental image for longer periods of time.
