问题                Eye Movement and Several Faults in Reading
    Suppose you do this experiment with a friend. Get hold of a book with a large page size and lines that run right across the page. Get your friend to hold the book up and to read it with the top of the book just below his eye level. This means that you can watch the movement of his eyes as he reads the page. If you do this, you will see that your friend’s eyes do not make a continuous forward sweep. Instead, they progress by little "jumps" moving, then stopping, as they progress along the line. This kind of jumping movement is called a saccadic movement(跳跃).
    There has to he this starting and stopping movement because the eye can see only when it is still motionless. Every time the eye pauses it sees a phrase or even a sentence then jumps to the next part of the line and so on.
    There is another interesting fact about eye movement. If you record the eye movements of someone who is reading, you will notice that, from time to time, the reader goes back and looks again at something he has read before; in other words, he regresses(回视) an earlier part of the text, probably because he realizes he does not understand the passage properly. Then he comes back to where he left off and continues reading. At one time, it was though that regression was a fault, but it is in fact a very necessary activity in efficient reading.
    There are several different kinds of faults in reading, which are usually more exaggerated with foreign language learners. The most common one is that most people read everything at the same slow speed, and do not seem to realize that they can read faster or slower as required. Other people say the words to themselves, or move their lips-these habits slow the reader down to something near speaking speed, which is of course much slower than reading speed. Another habit that can slow you down is following the line with your finger, or with a pen.
This passage is about______.
选项 A、the way people’s eyes move in reading
B、eye movement and several faults in reading
C、some bad habits in reading
D、Saccadic movement and regression
答案B
解析 本题考查考生概括文章主题的能力。考的是本文的主旨。通观全文，文章第一段讲的是一个实验，并由此谈到人眼在阅读时的跳跃式移动这一有趣的现象；文章第二段解释了其中的原因；第三段又讲了另外一个有趣的现象：人眼在阅读时会回视，并简短地提到人眼回视其实是一种有效的阅读习惯；第四段谈到人们在阅读中的几种错误习惯。所以，整篇文章基本上谈到了两个主要内容：阅读中人眼移动的现象和阅读的错误习惯。A选项说人眼在阅读时移动的方式，C选项说人们在阅读中的几个坏习惯，D选项说跳跃式移动和回视。通观全文，可以看出这三项文中都有涉及，但都犯了以偏概全的错误。所以，正确答案是B。
