텍스트 읽기는 방어운전과 아주 비슷해요. 3가지 작업을 동시에 수행하는 일입니다. 일단 눈앞을 주시해야 하고, 더 먼 곳을 동시에 볼 수 있어야 하며, 수시로 좌우를 살펴야 하죠. 특히 어려운 텍스트를 읽을 때는 이 3가지를 동시에 하는 것이 중요해요. 현재 구절에 집중하면서 동시에 앞뒤에 어떤 내용이 있는지 함께 읽어야 하고, 되도록 더 커다란 맥락을 조망할 수 있어야 합니다. 처음에는 어렵지만 연습할수록 점점 더 자연스러워집니다.

Reading text is a lot like defensive driving: you’re doing three things at once. You have to keep your eyes on what’s in front of you, you have to be able to look further away at the same time, and you have to look left and right from time to time. It’s important to do all three at the same time, especially when reading difficult texts. You have to focus on the current passage, but you also have to read what’s in front of you and behind you, and you have to be able to see the bigger context as much as possible. It’s hard at first, but it gets more and more natural with practice.
