A memory and method for charging a word line thereof are disclosed. The memory includes a first word line driver, a first word line and a first switch. The first word line driver is connected to a first operational voltage for receiving a first control signal. The first word line comprises a start terminal connected to an output terminal of the first word line driver. The first switch is connected to a second operational voltage and an end terminal of the first word line. The second operational voltage is not smaller than the first operational voltage. When the first word line driver is controlled by the first control signal to start charging up the first word line, the first switch is simultaneously turned on to provide another charging path for the first word line until the first word line is charged to the first operational voltage.
