Reading these days is often a few minutes on the phone in the grocery-store line, not an hour curled up with a book on the couch. This quick-hit reading is sparking a renewed interest in the art of speed reading.

在当下，阅读常常就是在超市排队时拿着手机看上几分钟，而不是蜷在沙发上拿着一本书读上一个小时。这种快餐式阅读重新引起了人们对速读艺术的兴趣。

People read more than ever on mobile devices and usually in 10-minute bursts, according to research by e-reading subscription services. To tap into this, there's a revival in traditional speed-reading classes as well as new apps that promise to make reading on a small screen easier.

据电子书订阅服务机构数据，如今人们在移动设备上读书的频率比以往任何时候都高，每次通常是读上10分钟。为了利用这一点，传统速读课程正在复兴，旨在使小屏幕阅读更加便利的新应用软件也在不断涌现。
