People read on the web
用户在网站上阅读
People only read word-by-word on the web when they are really interested in the content.
用户只有对他们感兴趣的内容，才会一个字一个字的去阅读
They usually skim the pages looking for highlighted keywords，meaningful headings，short paragraphs and scannable list
他们通常会在浏览的页面中寻找高亮显示的关键词，有意义的标题，短段落和可观察分析的列表
Since they’re in a hurry to find the very piece of information they’re looking for, they’ll skip what’s irrelevant for them.
因为他们急于找到有价值的信息，他们会跳过无关紧要的内容
So don’t expect people to read content that seems neither easily scannable nor relevant for them， therefore long text blocks，unnecessary instructions, promotional writing and “smalltalk” should be avoided on the web.
所以不要期待用户在阅读内容的时候，那些即不容易也不相关的内容会入他们的法眼，大段的文本，不必要的措辞，宣传用语，“smalltalk”应该避免出现在网站中
How little do users read?
用户能阅读多少东西？
In 2013, analytics vendor Chartbeat analyzed Slate and other websites and found that most visitors scroll through about only 50-60% of an article page. What’s more interesting，people readily share your articles even without reading them
在2013年，分析了供应商“Chartbeat” 和 其他站点，发现大部分游客在文章页中只滚动了50%-60%的位置，更有意思的是，分享和滚动这两个动作看上去似乎没有关联。即使不阅读，人们依然会分享你的文章

Research shows that if people read a piece of content for pleasure, they read more thoroughly and find reading effortless even on a computer screen.
