N2 - Mechanisms of understanding of a text, which are the basis of text processing while reading, are among the main problems of modern psycholinguistics. This study is one of the first eye-tracking experiment on Russian language material, checking out if a text type is among the readability categories and if it influences the effect of reading perspective. The hypothesis is based on the assumption that the processes of perception, including reading, processing and reproduction, in texts of different types (static and dynamic) are different. Two text types were used: a static text (descriptive sentences) and a dynamic text (sequence of events following swiftly on one another). In the experiment participants (32 native speakers of Russian) read eight texts of the same length written in different styles (3 static texts and 3 dynamic texts), presented randomly, and retell them afterwards. The following measurements were considered: first fixation duration, average saccade velocity, a percentage of regressions (return
