Full Focused Reading

Today in my English class we were reading the book entitled "Who has seen the wind". My teacher told us, out of the blue, that a good reader is a focussed reader who blocks out every distraction while they read. She told us that ANY distraction (such as someone opening the door or someone walking past you) should NOT under ANY circumstances distract you. I found this really funny because what if we were reading and she told us to stop reading and listen to her. Would her interruption not count as a distraction? Did she not just tell us to ignore all distractions? I got that funny scenario in my head and thought I'd share it with the internet. Do with that what you will. Until next time, Cheemo!
