A system and method for controlling the presentation of words on an electronic reading device to assist in speed reading. A portion of the display screen on the device is reserved for the serial presentation of the words in accordance with the speed reading method. The remainder of the screen contains the current text of the content being read, but is shaded, darkened, so as to not distract the reader. The presentation of words is momentarily paused at sentence and chapter transitions. This momentary pause allows the user to maintain perspective as to the user's location in an electronic text (e.g., a book) and enhances the reading experience and ultimately enhances the speed of the reading exercise and the retention of content.
