When we read a printed text, our eyes mov

20、e across a page in short, jerky movement. We recognize words usually when our eyes are still when they fixate. Each time they fixate, we see a group of words. This is known as the recognition span or the visual span. The length of time of which the eyes stop -the duration of the fixation -varies con

21、siderably from person to person. It also varies within any one person according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the text. Furthermore, it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness.Unfortunately, in the past, many reading improvement courses have concentrated too mu

22、ch on how our eyes move across the printed page. As a result of this misleading emphasis on the purely visual aspects of reading, numerous exercises have been devised to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation. For instance, in some exercises, words are flashed on to a screen for, say, a te

23、nth or a twentieth of a second. One of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point, taking in the words on either side.

The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following facts except _ .A. ones fa

26、miliarity with the textB. ones purpose in reading C. the length of a group of wordsD. lighting and tiredness42.
