It never feels like there are enough hours in the day. If someone__________ (1)you a button to get things done at twice the speed to free up time, you’d probably jump at it. In November, Netflix introduced a feature to let users fast-forward their shows, playing at 1.5x speed. People are already watching university lectures and their favourite YouTubers on double time and those that speed-listen to podcasts –podfasters –are commonplace.

But fast forward __________ (2)an option since the days of VHS tapes. What’s so different now? In 2018, Netflix released 1,500 hours of original content and to watch it all, it would take you four hours of streaming a day for a whole year. With the same number of hours in the day, speed-watching seems a logical solution, for both viewers and the streaming giants, to the information and entertainment glut.

‘The brain is very capable of adapting to changes in experience,’ says neuroscientist Prof Edvard Moser. Yet time is different from other sense data we adapt to, like sightand smell.The body doesn’t have in-built sensors to measure time the way a clock does. It may __________ (3)like we can sense time. But that’s a helpful illusion. Regardless of how time feels, there’s nothing stopping us watching and consuming information at faster speeds than we do currently. ‘But maybe the pleasure or enjoyment wouldn’t be the same.’
