1．The Art of Slow Reading If you are reading this article in print，chances are that you will only get through half of what I have written.And if you are reading this online，you may not even finish a fifth.（1）

They suggest that many of us no longer have the concentration to read articles through to their conclusion.
   So are we getting stupider？Actually，our online habits are damaging the mental power we need to process and understand textual information.Round-the-clock news makes us read from one article to the next without necessarily engaging fully with any of the content.Our reading is frequently interrupted by the noise of the latest email and we are now absorbing short bursts of words on Twitter and Facebook more regularly than longer texts.（2）

But we are gradually forgetting how to sit back，think carefully，and relate all the facts to each other.
   （3）

A desperate bunch of academics want us to take our time while reading，and re-reading.They ask us to switch off our computers every so often and rediscover both the joy of personal engagement with printed texts，and the ability to process them fully.What's to be done then？Most slow readers realize that total rejection of the web is extremely unrealistic.They feel that getaway from technology for a while is the answer.（4）

   Personally，I'm not sure whether I could ever go offline for long.Even while writing this article，I am switching constantly between sites，skimming too often，absorbing too little.Internet reading has become too rooted in my daily life for me to change.I read essays and articles not in hard copy but as PDFs.I suspect that many readers are in a similar position.（5）

You can download a computer application called Freedom，which allows you to read in peace by cutting off your Internet connection.Or if you want to avoid being disturbed by the Internet，you could always download offline reader Instapaper for your iPhone.If you're still reading my article，that is slow reading.

A.The Internet is probably part of the problem.
B.Now some campaigns are advocating slow reading.
C.These are the two findings from the recent research projects.
D.But if you just occasionally want to read more slowly，help is at hand.
E.Some of them have suggested turning their computers off for one day a week.
F.Slow reading can help connect a reader to neighborhood and become popular.
G.Because of the Internet，we have become very good at collecting information.
