Quiz: What Type of Reader Are You?
In a world where information surrounds us everywhere, the way we absorb texts reveals more about us than we think. Imagine: one person immerses themselves in a novel for hours, completely losing track of time; another browses dozens of articles over morning coffee; a third methodically studies specialized literature with a pencil in hand. They are all readers, but so different! Our quiz “What Type of Reader Are You?” will help you discover a new facet of self-knowledge and, perhaps, change your approach to the world of texts and information.
