The book that he borrowed from the library was renewed for a month and will not be expected to expire. Two months, i can't finish a 200-page paper book. Where's the reading time? It seems that the time has not changed, and that the cell phone has taken over. The 16th national reading survey, published recently, shows that in 2018 more than half of china's adult citizens preferred digital reading, with a marked increase in the percentage of readers who preferred to read mobile phones; the adult national online activities focused on reading news, socialization and viewing videos, and the recreational and fragmentation features were evident, with a low percentage of deep book reading behaviour. Today, screen reading is becoming mainstream。
Despite the importance of digital reading, long-term mobile phone screen reading presents many problems. First, there is a risk of fragmentation reading. What is fragmentation reading? This refers mainly to incomplete and intermittent reading methods based on new reading media such as electronic books, mobile phones and networks. The content of the reading is fragmented, short-form text, or long-form content is broken into different pieces and is read in “suture needles” over piecemeal time. A lot of people don't have the patience to read on their cell phones, either “one-on-one” or “one-minute” to read. On the surface, fragmentation reading is the maximum use of time, but in practice this reading behaviour has a negative impact on the digestive understanding of the work being read and on the development of reading habits. Second, “low-quality” reading goes a long way. Of course, this cannot be generalized, but most of the content provided by electronic reading products currently available on the market is of varying quality, and many more are miswritten, diseased and even cheap。
Reading is free, and whatever medium is used, as long as it draws nutrients and triggers reflection, it is commendable. Digital reading itself extends people's ability to read, but “low-level reading” requires vigilance. First, the community must promote in-depth reading, urge web platforms to provide high-quality psycho-food items and severely combat “flow creation”; secondly, for management authorities, the regulations for web publishing need to be improved as soon as possible to manage content like paper-based publications; and thirdly, the government must use digital media and tools to connect digital and paper-based reading barriers to in-depth reading。
The author believes that reading can lead to questions and shape his own thinking and conclusions, even if it is read in depth. On-line surfing is not bad, but it is worthwhile not to let information that is widely entertained consume too much time and energy, even if reading on a mobile phone produces a little bit of a gain that can inspire thought, interest and interest. Of course, reading a book is a meaningful thing, not to read short texts lightly, but also to be able to read books over and over again. (poncho)
