"인터넷이 우리를 멍청하게 만드는가"라는 질문에 관한 책과 서평, 토론들이 있었습니다. 이를 둘러싼 이야기들을 보시려면 멀티태스킹과 '스위치 비용'이라는 글을 읽어보시고요. 이 글에서는 이런 글을 원문으로 읽고는 싶은데 영어 때문에 머리가 뱅글뱅글 도는 분들을 위한 키워드 트리를 소개하려고 합니다.
Socrates started what may have been the first technology scare. In the “Phaedrus,” he lamented the invention of books, which “create forgetfulness” in the soul. Instead of remembering for themselves, Socrates warned, new readers were blindly trusting in “external written characters.” The library was ruining the mind.
영어로 쓰인 글을 아래처럼 바꾸어보았고요, 키워드 트리라고 이름을 붙였습니다. 키워드 트리만으로 글을 정확하게 이해할 순 없겠지만, 키워드 트리를 참고하면서 원본을 읽는다면, 좀 더 수월하게 읽힐 거라고 생각합니다 ^^ 물론 영어 본문을 읽고 바로 이해하실 수 있다면 키워드 트리가 굳이 필요 없겠지요?

Needless to say, the printing press only made things worse. In the 17th century, Robert Burton complained, in “The Anatomy of Melancholy,” of the “vast chaos and confusion of books” that make the eyes and fingers ache. By 1890, the problem was the speed of transmission: one eminent physician blamed “the pelting of telegrams” for triggering an outbreak of mental illness. And then came radio and television, which poisoned the mind with passive pleasure. Children, it was said, had stopped reading books. Socrates would be pleased.

우선은 첫번째 두 문단을 바꾸었습니다.
글을 이해하는데 도움이 된다고 생각하시는 분이 계시면 다음 부분도 바꾸겠습니다. ^^
