And the all these make the revolution of reading possible. However, university students and high school students often feel confused when they face the variety of network literature reading. In the present situation of deficiency in theories of network literature reading, it is my original intention to put forward the theories for the readers to consult. This article expounds differences between network literature reading and traditional paper medium reading, deeply analyses the producing process of the meaning of network literature reading, and points out "the trap" which network literature brings up. In view of this the author poses five problems: problem of aesthetics, problem of the norm of ethics, problem of "fast food" and "no thinking", problem of "illusion" and "reality", and problem of "choice".
