2、te,while progressing from left to right across the line,they see a certain number of words or letters.The amount you see during each fixation is called your eye span.vEye spans varies individually according to the type of material you are reading.5ppt课件vWhen your eyes reach the end of a line of prin

3、t,they return to the beginning of the next line.This return motion is called the return sweep.Although your eyes are already trained to return automatically,the speed with which they make this return is variable.6ppt课件vYour eyes normally progress in a left-to-right direction,seeing each word in the

4、order it was written.Occasionally,your eyes will move back-ward,or regress,to a word already read instead of moving to the next word.vRegression is often unnecessary and slows you down.7ppt课件vExperiment 1:Observing Eye MovementAsk the other person to hold up the book so that you can see his or her e

5、yes as he or she reads.Then direct the person to start reading a paragraph.As he or she reads,notice how the eyes move and stop,move and stop.Also notice the return sweep to the beginning of the next line.Eye-Movement Patterns8ppt课件vExperiment 2:Counting FixationsAs the person reads,count the number

6、 of eye stops or fixations made on each line.By counting the average number of words on the line and dividing it by the average number of fixations per line,you will be able to work out the persons eye span.Eye-Movement Patterns9ppt课件vFrequent regression interferes with your comprehension and slows

7、you down.You can reduce regression by using the following techniques:Eye-Movement Patterns10ppt课件v1.Force yourself to move your eyes only from left to right.Do not regress in the middle of a sentence.Instead,if the meaning of a sentence is unclear after you have finished reading it,reread the entire

8、 sentence.Eye-Movement Patterns11ppt课件v2.Use a card to prevent regression to previous lines.As you read,slide the card down the page so that it covers what you have already read.Eye-Movement Patterns12ppt课件13ppt课件 Key word reading is a new technique.Although it is faster than most of the careful rea

25、y find that you frequently lapse back into word-by-word reading.This is a natural happening since your attention focuses on the content of the material rather than the technique of reading.Once you realize that you have lapsed into word-to-word reading,just switch back to cluster reading and continu
