Step S208, marking the auxiliary label on the target content point, wherein the auxiliary label marked on the target content point is used to provide the reader with an auxiliary reading service for reading other content points having relevance to the target content point when triggered. .

It should be noted that, in the present invention, the reading object may be any reading, including but not limited to books. Further, the target content point can be any content point that has relevance to other content points. Specifically, the target content point may be acquired when the e-reader loads the reading object, or may be obtained when the reader reads a certain target content point.

For books, the relevance of content point A of a book to content points B, C, ... of other parts of the book (including but not limited to plot relevance, name relevance, etc.) can be pre-edited. After each content point is edited by relevance, the above correlation data file is obtained. In implementation, the content files in the book may be correlated and described by using a data file of a specific format, wherein the correlation data file includes but is not limited to the following key format segments: chapter number, chapter all auxiliary tag lists, and each auxiliary tag The start and end of the text of the corresponding chapter The number of the chapter where the text of the corresponding section of the auxiliary label 1 starts from the 50th word to the end of the 70th word, and the other content points that are related to the content points marked by the auxiliary label The starting and ending positions of the text of the chapter in which it is located (such as other content points that are related to the content points marked by the auxiliary label 1 include: the 120th word of the twentieth chapter begins to the end of the 200th word; The 65th word of the thirty-fifth chapter begins to end with the 120th word).

Wherein, during implementation, the relevant data file may be prepared by a staff member of a reading object (such as a book), or the related data file may be pre-written by other personnel in a specified manner. Once written, it can be uploaded to the server or stored directly in an eReader. Thus, the data file can be downloaded from the server of the book content provider prior to reading the relevance data file of the target content point, which can be performed, for example, by the user using e-reader software. The downloaded data file can be saved in a designated location on a terminal device (such as a mobile phone) running the e-reader software so that the user can correctly load and generate the specified auxiliary tag when reading with the e-reader.

After generating the auxiliary tag, the e-reader can display the auxiliary tag by the following steps:
