Different tests require different kinds of effort

The Norton Field Guide to Writing with reading states "Different texts require different kinds of effort." When I read this I thought of several different things. First, the statement is very true. Reading a childrens book is not challenging to most college students. Reading a 160 page document on cell reproduction would be hard for students not interested in science. A short story with small words will be easier to read and understand than a medical document. Those are just a few examples of the effort put forward in reading different things. Another thing the quote reminded me of was that even if your reading a simple piece you still need to look at all the details and be sure not to read to fast or you might miss a piece of important information.
