      So it seems paradoxical to talk abouthabits in the same context as creativity and innovation. But brain researchershave discovered that when we consciously develop new habits, we create parallelpaths, and even entirely new brain cells, that can jump our trains of thoughtonto new, innovative tracks.

      Rather than dismissing ourselves asunchangeable creatures of habits, we can instead direct our own change byconsciously developing new habits. In fact, the more new things we try——the more we step outside ourcomfort zone——the moreinherently creative we become, both in the workplace and in our personal lives.

      But don’t bother trying to kill off oldhabits; once those ruts of procedure are worn into the brain, they’re there tostay. Instead, the new habits we deliberately press into ourselves createparallel pathways that can bypass those old roads.

   这三段内容明显以说明为主。快速扫读的结果是“…habits…creativity and innovation”立刻映入眼帘。粗略知道此处在谈习惯与创新之间的关系。可以不求甚解，立刻进入下一环节。刚刚开始这样的跳读训练的同学可能会有些不习惯，会觉得每个细节不仔细看有些可惜。事实上，在任何一篇繁难复杂的文章阅读中我们都必须学会取舍。什么都抓的结果就是重要的信息反而凸现不出来。贪多务得是很多人的小毛病。但是，天道有常，什么都想要，真的就什么都能得到吗？
