英文摘要：

It is well known that our eyes move to different locations in text reading to obtain the useful information for comprehension. The basic oculomotor events are composed of successive fixations and saccades. However,all the eye-movement behaviors are based on two types of decisions： when to move the eyes and where to move next. A large number of studies have demonstrated that the ＂when＂decision is largely driven by lexical properties of words. But there is typically no correlation between how long the eyes remain fixated and how far they move. Therefore,findings from when to move the eyes cannot be directly extended to where to move next. The aim of this research is to review the advances in terms of where to move the eyes,which is one of the basic issues of eye movement control in reading. Some evidence in reading of alphabetic languages has suggested that the ＂where＂decision is generally to be made based on word,selecting a word as the next saccade target. The most cited finding for supporting word-based eye guidance is the observation of the ＂preferred viewing location （PVL） ＂effect,which can be seen when one plots the distribution of initial landing positions in a word. Researchers found that the eyes most often land at a position slightly to the left of the center of words. In contrast to the PVL,the optimal viewing position （OVP） represents the location in a word at which recognition time is minimized. A number of researchers have been endeavoring to explain the landing position effect by constructing computational models of eye movement control during reading. In the present paper,advances in the landing position effect research were reviewed during reading of different languages, including whether this effect was influenced by word length,inter-word spacing,frequency and predictability and the age in reading of alphabetic and other writing systems （such as Thai and Japanese） . And then advances in Chinese reading research were further reviewed,including whether the effect existed o
