I was lazy and took the first test without the comprehension. I got about 222 wpm.

I don't really care too much about how fast I read. I mostly read for pleasure, therefore, I'm not in a hurry to finish my book. When I read at work, it's usually short parts of technical documents or websites looking for a solution to a problem. I can easily skim and know if I've already tried it, or if it might work for me.

As far as what I see when I read, after I get into a book, I don't even know that I'm reading. I can see the story play out in my head like a movie and seldom realize that I'm reading text on a page (or screen).
