Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of the classical and medieval worlds, while during the fifteenth century the term "reading" undoubtedly meant reading aloud Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become common place 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 reveals 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 increased, the number of potential listeners declined 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 argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of materials such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening Indeed, this argument remain with us still in education However, whatever its virtues, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was 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 century, students was being recommended to adopt attitudes to books and to use reading skills which was inappropriate, if not impossible, for the oral reader The social, cultural and technological changes in the century had greatly altered what the term "reading" implied

29 The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century indicated
A A change in the status of literate people
B A change in the nature of reading
C An increase in the number of books
D An increase in the average age of readers
30 Educationalists are still arguing about
A The important of silent reading
B The amount of information yielded by books and newspaper
C The effects of reading on health
D The value of different types of reading materials
31 The emergence of the mass media and of specialised periodicals showed that
