in response to detecting the first movement of the first contact on the touch-sensitive surface:
in accordance with a determination that the respective direction of the first movement of the first contact is a first direction, scrolling the first content in the respective region of the display based on the first movement of the first contact to reveal a second portion of the first content that was not displayed in the respective region of the display prior to detecting the first movement of the first contact, wherein an amount of scrolling of the first content is determined based on an amount of movement of the first contact in the first direction during the first movement of the first contact;
in accordance with a determination that the respective direction of the first movement of the first contact is a second direction, different from the first direction, scrolling the first content in the respective region of the display based on the first movement of the first contact, wherein an amount of scrolling of the first content is determined based on an amount of movement of the first contact in the second direction during the first movement of the first contact;
