Problems with IO

My task is to write a parser for some language (TSG). I'm using an
UU_Parsing library.
I wrote that parser even tested it by using some example provided, but I
have problems with using my parser.
I wrote a function:
> test :: [Char] -> IO ()
> test inp = do res <- parseIO pTSG inp
> print res
parseIO :: InputState a b => AnaParser a Pair b c -> a b -> IO c
is provided by the library, pTSG is my parser and inp is a String that
I'm parsing.
How can I use that function "test" while using readFile?
Is it something like:
> test1 file = do inp <- readFile file
> test inp
Why should I use that "do" thing? What is so "magical" in it?
PS: Please, don't say that I'm stupid, I just have problem with
understanding IO/Monad part, besides that is just me second week of
Haskell... :)
PS1: "Haskell: The Craft of Functional Programming" didn't make that
part clear to me. That's why I'm writing...
