You simply have to affiliate the three gadgets (the phrase, the pegword, and the season) into one visualization. For instance, the pegwords for 34 can be a door (4) and a winter scene (31-40). So, when you needed to memorize “carrots” at this spot, you’ll make an affiliation with all three issues (carrots, door and winter).

A — Apple

B — Boy

C — Cat

D — Dog
