但是，控制身体只是最小的要求。您还必须学会不关注页面上字母的形状。可以这么说，您必须看到它们，以便您可以直接介绍它们形成的单词的含义。如果您全神贯注于字母的形状，那么您将是一个效率低下的读者，可能会被认为是愚蠢的。
(Controlling your body is, however, only a minimal requirement. You must also have learned to pay no attention to the shapes of the letters on the page. You must see through them, so to speak, so that you can go directly to the meanings of the words they form. If you are preoccupied with the shapes of the letters, you will be an intolerably inefficient reader, likely to be thought stupid.)
