They suggest that many of us no longer have the concentration to read articles through to their conclusion.
   So are we getting stupider?Actually,our online habits are damaging the mental power we need to process and understand textual information.Round-the-clock news makes us read from one article to the next without necessarily engaging fully with any of the content.Our reading is frequently interrupted by the noise of the latest email and we are now absorbing short bursts of words on Twitter and Facebook more regularly than longer texts.(2)

A desperate bunch of academics want us to take our time while reading,and re-reading.They ask us to switch off our computers every so often and rediscover both the joy of personal engagement with printed texts,and the ability to process them fully.What's to be done then?Most slow readers realize that total rejection of the web is extremely unrealistic.They feel that getaway from technology for a while is the answer.(4)

   Personally,I'm not sure whether I could ever go offline for long.Even while writing this article,I am switching constantly between sites,skimming too often,absorbing too little.Internet reading has become too rooted in my daily life for me to change.I read essays and articles not in hard copy but as PDFs.I suspect that many readers are in a similar position.(5)

  • 2.How Not to Annoy Wild Animals at National Parks National parks are a treasure that offer the chance to view native plants and animals in their natural habitat.However,as the number of visitors and wildlife populations increases,humans and animals too often find themselves in close distance.(1)

       Remember that the animals living in national parks are wild.Wild animals can be unpredictable and in national parks and many state parks,they are not contained.(2)
    Never think that it is safe to approach them.
       (3)
    Stop by the visitor's center and take the time to read about the types of wildlife in the park and what to expect,The park service posts these signs to protect you and the wildlife.So,if you see the warning signs,take care.
       Make sure you give animals space.The general rule is to keep 25 yards away from all wildlife,and minimum of 100 yards away from wolves and bears.(4)
    If you're out hiking and you encounter wildlife,stick your thumb out and hold it out at eye level.If your thumb covers the entire animal,you're a safe distance away from that animal.
       Some wild animals look adorable and maybe you think handing them a snack two won't hurt.(5)
    Feeding wildlife is a bad idea and you risk getting a bite.Plus human food is not healthy for animals and it makes them learn that people aren't the threat.This becomes a vicious cycle(惡性循環(huán))that results in people getting too close and getting hurt.Wildlife have all they need to eat in their environment.
