B
Retrieval of LTM into STM awareness
C
We try hard to remember
D
Another way of learning
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The capacity of the central executive has never been measured. Working memory only involves STM, so it is not a comprehensive model of memory (as it does not include SM or LTM).

Detailed explanation-2: -Working Memory and Learning In early theories of information processing, up through the current period, working memory was viewed as a portal to long-term memory. In order for information to enter long-term memory in a form that allows later retrieval, it first must be present in working memory in a suitable form.

Detailed explanation-3: -Information moves from STM to LTM when it is encoded in one of three ways: through sound (acoustic encoding), imagery (visual encoding), or meaning (semantic encoding). Encoding in STM tends to be primarily acoustic, secondarily visual, and much less often semantic.

Detailed explanation-4: -Working memory is short-term memory that’s used to execute specific tasks. Working memory is a system that’s designed to manipulate and use short-term memories. Working memory is attention that’s designed to manage short-term memory.
