'do' is a syntactic sugar of monadic operations.
The original form can be written as
main = myReadFile >>= \s -> putStrLn s
That's correct. In this case, the 's' has type String. So the IO String 
has been 'converted' into a String, but only within the context of the IO 
monad.

I think ultimately everything is syntactic sugar.
