Does reading great literature expand our imagination and better our moral and social sensibilities? For most people, it’s just wishful thinking because there’s no evidence that people are morally or socially better for reading Tolstoy or other great books.
But just hold on a second there. Actually, there is such evidence, says US writer Annie Murphy Paul. She argues in Time magazine that “deep reading”, as opposed to browsing web pages, makes us nicer and smarter.
Her evidence includes several studies carried out by some psychologists.
One is based in Canada. Two psychologists found that individuals who often read fiction appear to be better able to understand other people, sympathize with them and view the world from their perspective.
But this improvement is only possible if we do deep reading, which isn’t just about understanding the meaning of each word, Paul explains. Deep reading is “slow, devoted, rich in sensory detail and emotional and moral complexity”. Through processing details, comparisons, and other literary device, the reader’s brain creates a mental representation as if the scene were unfolding in real life.
It’s said that reading a good book is like falling in love with the writer. Paul cites another study by psychologist Victor Nell from a university in South Africa, who found that when readers are enjoying the experience most, the pace of their reading slows.
The combination of fast, fluent understanding of words and slow, unhurried progress on the page gives deep readers tie to enrich their reading with their own thoughts, analysis, memories and opinions. It’s as if reader and writer were engaged in a deep and real conversation, like people falling in love.
None of this is possible when we browse web pages. We will eventually lose the ability to appreciate our literary heritage because novels, poems and other kinds of literature can be understood only by readers whose brains are trained to read them. And even some educators just meet young people where they are by adapting education to their onscreen habits.
With the electronic devices spreading universally, Paul warms, deep reading has become an endangered practice. We should care about how we read as much as what we read. So pick up a book, sit back, and let a spiritual journey begin that will take you places only deep reading can.

小题3:proved。根据第一段It’s just wishful thinking because there’s no evidence that people are morally or socially better for reading Tolstoy or other great books. 没有证据可以证明阅读托尔斯泰或其他著作的人们在道德上或精神上优于其它人。也就是说这种情况还未被“证明”，故填proved。
小题4:seem/appear。根据第三段One is based in Canada. Two psychologists found that individuals who often read fiction appear to be better able to understand other people, sympathize with them and view the world from their perspective. 两个心理学家发现经常读小说的人似乎表现得更加理解他人。故填seem/appear。
小题5:creat。根据第四段Through processing details, comparisons, and other literary device, the reader’s brain creates a mental representation as if the scene were unfolding in real life. 可知深层阅读，读者的大脑会产生一种精神上的表象，就像那个场景在现实生活中发生过。也就是说深层阅读会在读者的大脑中产生一种精神上的表象。故填creat。

小题8:training。根据倒数第二段We will eventually lose the ability to appreciate our literary heritage because novels, poems and other kinds of literature can be understood only by readers whose brains are trained to read them. 我们最终会丧失欣赏文学的能力，因为人们只有对大脑进行相应的阅读训练后才能理解小说，诗歌和其他文学作品。可知大脑没有受过相应的阅读训练，人们就没没有能力欣赏文学。故填training。
小题9:adapt/adjust。根据倒数第二段And even some educators just meet young people where they are by adapting education to their onscreen habits. 甚至一些教育者调整教育方式，只为迎合青少年在屏幕上阅读的习惯。可知一些教育者盲目调整教育适应青少年的屏幕阅读习惯。故填adapt/adjust。
