Twilight Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I've seen this with the letters out of order, but this is the first time I've seen it with numbers. Good example of a Brain Study: If you can read this OUT LOUD, you have a strong mind. And better than that: Alzheimer's is a long, long way down the road before it ever gets anywhere near you. 7H15 M3554G3 53RV35 7O PR0V3 H0W 0UR M1ND5 C4N D0 4M4Z1NG 7H1NG5! 1MPR3551V3 7H1NG5! 1N 7H3 B3G1NN1NG 17 WA5 H4RD BU7 N0W, 0N 7H15 LIN3 Y0UR M1ND 1S R34D1NG 17 4U70M471C4LLY W17H 0U7 3V3N 7H1NK1NG 4B0U7 17, B3 PROUD! 0NLY C3R741N P30PL3 C4N R3AD 7H15. PL3453 F0RW4RD 1F U C4N R34D 7H15. To my 'selected' strong-minded friends: If you can read the following paragraph, forward it on to your friends with 'yes' in the subject line. Only great minds can read this. This is weird, but interesting! If you can read this, you have a strong mind, too. Can you read this? Only 55 people out of 100 can. I cdnuolt blveiee that I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd what I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in what oerdr the ltteres in a word are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is that the frsit and last ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can still raed it whotuit a pboerlm. This is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the word as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? Yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt! If you can raed this frowrad it. Quote Link to comment
Jeepers Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I read them both just fine. Kinda (soothing- can't think of the correct word). I am having a real problem thinking of the right words today so I'm glad I passed this one without any problem right now. I still can't think of the word. When something eases your mind. In another post I couldn't think of the pressure cookers 'vent'. All I could come up with was 'blow hole'. I'm always close. Quote Link to comment
dogmom4 Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 First time I've seen one with numbers. Took reading the third line first...then looked back and it was all there. Interesting how the brain works. Quote Link to comment
CrabGrassAcres Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 No problem. If you learned to speed read, you don't really read each word separately. You read groups of words, even paragraphs or sometimes, if the subject matter isn't convoluted, you can read an entire page at a glance. I taught myself to speed read before I was 8. I didn't think anything of it until my uncle came over one day and was talking about the speed reading course he was taking. Mom told him that I could already do it and he wanted me to show him. I remember him quizzing me to find out if I really read it that fast and how astonished he was. I think the way children are taught to read is very poorly done. I believe that they get caught in the tangle of complexity when it is really quite simple. Quote Link to comment
