问题                        WHAT’S INVOLVED IN RAPID READING
     Investigations of eye movements have shown that the rapid reader’s eyes move rapidly across the lines, pausing briefly two or three times on each line, picking up an "eyeful" of words at each pause, while the eyes of the poor reader pause on every word or on small word units.
     It is the mind, of course, that controls the eye movements.  The great value of eyemovement investigations is that they furnish us a picture of the different ways in which the mind works in perceiving reading symbols. They tell us that the mind of the poor reader loafs along, picking up very small units at a time, while the eyes of the excellent reader race over the lines, gathering an entire, meaningful idea at a glance.
     Cultivating the habit of reading for ideas not only increases speed, but also increases understanding. A person who reads one word at a time thinks in terms of the meanings of these separate words and thus "can’t see the woods for the trees." The first and most important instruction is, "Read for Ideas!" If you can cultivate the habit of rapidly picking up one complete thought unit after another, the eye movements will take care of themselves.
The author of the selection believes that eye-movement investigations are___________.
选项 A、valuable because they provide a picture of the ways the mind works in perceiving word symbols
B、worthless because eye movements have nothing to do with skillful reading
C、worthless because they tell us little about how expert readers’ functions are
D、valuable because they tell us much about the way the eye is put together
