A selection line selection circuitand a column selection circuitinclude first and second selection portions that perform selection operations simultaneously and independently. The first selection portion selects a first pair of main bit lines and selection lines in order to select the memory cell to be read. The second selection portion selects a second pair of main bit lines that is different from the first pair of main bit lines and selection lines for selecting a sector different from that for the memory cell to be read in order to select a line to be used for reading a reference voltage.
