activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical and medieval words, while during the fifteenth century the term “ reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become commonplace One should be wary, however, of assuming that silent reading, came about simply because reading aloud was a distraction to others Examinations of factors related to the historical development of silent reading have revealed that it became the usual mode of reading for most adults mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character The last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers As the number of readers increases, the number of potential listeners decline and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the flourishing of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries, railway carriages and offices, where reading aloud would cause distraction to other readers Towards the end of the century, there was still considerable agument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully and over whether the reading of materials such as newspapers was in some mentally weakening Indeed, this argument remains with us still ineducation However, whateverits virtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was 11 replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and periodicals for a specialised readership on the other By the end of the twentieth century, students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books and to use reading skills which were inappropriate, ifnot impossible, for the oral reader The social, cultural and technological

reading materialswas an indication of……………………… A a decline of standards of literacy B an alteration in educationalists’ attitudes C a change in the reader’s interest D an improvenent of printing techniques 61 The phrase “ a specialised readership” in paragraph mostly means “……………” A a reading volumn for particular professionals B a status for reader specialised in mass media C a requirement
