　　 What actually happens when we read? Some people think that we read one word　 31　 , understand it and then go on to the next. Other people think that our eyes smoothly　 32　 over each line from left to right, then back to the beginning of the　 33　 line, and so on. In fact, the physical action of reading usually doesn't work in　 34　 of those ways.

　 　35　 you do this experiment with a friend. Get hold of a book with a large page　 36　 and with lines that go right　 37　 the page.　 38　 your friend to　 39　 the book up and to read it with the top of the book just　 40　 his eye level. This　 41 　that you can watch the movement of his eyes as he reads the page.　 42　 you do this, you will see that your friend's eyes do not make a continuous forward sweep.　 43 　they progress (向前) by little "jumps", moving, then stopping, as they progress along the line.

　　 44　 to be this starting and stopping movement　 45　 the eye can see only when it is not moving. Every time the eye　 46　 , it sees a phrase or even a sentence, then jumps to the next part of the line, and so on.
