  A strange woman comes to my door one day in early March.It’s a rich area so we often have people selling things   1  -dusters, make-up, frozen foods-but she doesn’t look like   2   saleswoman.She hasn’t got the patter(喋喋不休)either.She   3   smiles shyly and puts a card in my hand:“Amy Turner.Pet Portraits Undertaken.”

  I   4   my fingernail along the cheap gold edge of the card and look at her, waiting for   5  

  “I’ll paint any animal in the   6   of your own home,” Amy Turner says.“Wouldn’t you like a nice picture of your loved one? I’ve had   7   of dogs, cats, parrots, prize bulls…”

  “Prize bulls!” I can’t   8   looking up and down our street.The   9   of any of my neighbours   10   bulls in their back gardens makes me smile.

  “I don’t have any animals,” I say as we look past each other.She must be   11   some little cat or dog would come running down the hall to give the game away   12   it is the first chance I’ve had to   13   the air outside.It is one of those spring mornings when you wake up and find winter’s gone.Even the camellia in the garden   14   has flowered over-night, pink blossoms which look shocking   15   the quiet greens and greys.

  “Why are you still in your dressing gown?” Amy says, turning her   16   back to me.“It’s nearly lunchtime.Are you ill?”

  “I’m fine,” I   17  .I’m not going to tell a stranger I’ve just been sick in the toilet upstairs and would still be   18   my fingers down my throat if the doorbell hadn’t rung.But now I’m not sure what to do next.Amy is still standing there.She doesn’t seem to think that not having a pet is a good enough   19  

  “I’m starving,” she says and I smile politely, nodding the   20   you do before you say goodbye.

What actually happens when we read? Some people think that we read one word   1   ,

understand it and then go on to the next. Other people think that our eyes smoothly   2   over each line from left to right, then back to the beginning of the    3    line, and so on. In fact, the physical action of reading usually doesn’t work in    4    of those ways.

   5    you do this experiment with a friend. Get hold of a book with a large page

  6   and with lines that go right   7    the page.    8    your friend to    9    the book up and to read it with the top of the book just    10     his eyes level. This   11    that you can watch the movement of his eyes as he read the page.   12    you do this, you will see that your friend’s eyes do not make a continuous forward sweep.   13    they progress(前移) by little “jumps”, moving, then stopping, as they progress along the line.

   14    to be this starting and stopping movement    15    the eye can see only when it is not moving. Every time the eye    16     it sees a phrase or even a sentence, then jumps to the next part of the line, and so on.

There is another interesting fact about eye movement. You will notice that,    17    , the reader goes back and looks again at something he    18     before, in other words, he returns to an earlier part of the text probably because he    19    he is not understanding it properly. Then he comes back to    20     he stopped and continues reading.
