- Please help me check the paragragh. not only grammar, but ideas and logic. Thank you very much. Firstly, it seems that reading some message in fragmented time helps us gain information and knowledge, but in fact it doesn't. On most of the occasion, we read short messages on a bus, taxi, car or when we are waiting for someone or even walking home. At those moments, we cannot concentrate on the information we are reading. On the one hand other people around us may loudly talk and laugh, so we cannot really absorb the information on the screen as we are immersed in reading in a quiet environment. Imagine when we take an examination, if someone outside the window is exclaiming, we may be suddenly distracted, not to mention read on a noisy bus. On the other hand, we are skimming the screen while we are doing something else, such as taking a walk, going upstairs or chatting with others. We are not in our best state to receive new information. In light of the two reasons, we cannot one hundred percent focus on what we are reading in a fragmented time. Consequently, we won't remember the facts or information the digital devices provide us, which doesn't count truly gaining knowledge. In another case, we know that we do not have enough time to read a serious book, and then we choose to read some gossip news or update status quo on network, which just infuses us with tons of useless information. On the whole, fragmented reading cannot really enable us to absorb knowledge.October 5, 201630
