Subjects were asked which word fitted best with a circle and which with a square. From the 35…… volunteers, everyone thought a circle fitted ‘soft’ while a square fitted ‘hard’. However, only 51% of the 36…… volunteers assigned a circle to 37……. When the test was later repeated with 38…… volunteers, it was found that they made 39…… choices.

　　我们把题目的在文章中作了定位。我们可以看到，如果按照平行阅读法来做，先看每种题型的第一题，不但无法记忆很多的信息，还会产生一系列的问题：
　　1.选择题的题目选项信息太多，会导致做完一题以后后面题目的信息基本已经遗忘， 还要再看题目，因此会浪费时间。
　　2.第二种题型是图表描述配对题，按照平行阅读的方法应该看图到文章中寻找描述信息，但这种方法明显会浪费很多时间。如果按照选项来做，那么平行阅读法就消失了。
　　3.在第三种的题型中，在文章中的信息定位中我们可以看出：用平行阅读法作题就完全不能理解文章最后两段的大意。从而作题准确率就会大幅下降。
