If your brain i

13、s taking in material quickly, youre clever; if not, well, that doesnt say great things about your IQ. But science shows context (上下文) and technique (技術) actually play a big role in how fast we learn, and even small changes like the way you use to read can make a big difference.Audio (音頻的) books have

14、 plenty of advantages: you can enjoy them anywhere, even in the car, and not printing books saves trees. Poor readers also often find them more interesting. But according to the latest research, if your goal isnt to pass the time in traffic, but instead to learn something difficult, you should choos

16、ut the same number of distracting (分散注意力) activities while they absorbed the information, they scored very differently on a 10-item quiz later. Generally, the readers scored 81 percent but while the listeners scored 59 percent. Why does listening vs reading material have such a great effect on learn

17、ing?Willingham explains that first, most of us read more slowly than we listen (especially when pausing and rereading), and when youre trying to absorb new information, slower seems to be better. “About 10 to 15 percent of eye movements during reading are actually regressive meaning the eyes are goi

Things like chapter breaks, subheadings, and lists help us in making sense of the material and understanding how it fits toge

19、ther. You lose all that when you go the audio way.The bottom line is simple: Dont feel shame about passing your time in traffic with an audio book. However, be aware of audios limitations when it comes to studying, and seriously consider choosing good old-fashioned reading instead.1According to the

This music was not written down, and at first only blacks played it. It was hard for white musicians to

50、learn the new style. But soonthey, too, were playing jazz.The popularity of this music spread. From New Orleans, it traveled up the Mississippi to Chicago, then to Kansas City and New York.
