This the process we want to account for. As we read each sentence, we build an increasingly complex web of ideas representing the text already read. I will, with a remarkable lack of creativity, call this an idea‐web (Figure 5.5). (Researchers actually call it a textbase.)

Figure 5.5. Model of reading expanded to include the idea‐web. The idea‐web is a representation of the ideas in the text, connected. There's an arrow going from the idea‐web to the sentence representation because the idea‐web—your ongoing understanding of the text—can influence how to interpret a particular sentence, as we saw in the “cut up a slice of cooked ham” example in Chapter 4.
