"Every time you read a text you read it the same way, right? Novels, textbooks, magazine articles and Internet web pages are all the same if they are written in the same language, aren't they? The answer to both of the questions is "not really". Readers employ different reading strategies and prior knowledge based on the genre (type of reading) and topic of the text.
