Read the passage and choose the best answer from 31 to 35

Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the learned in the early days
of history, while during the fifteenth century the term “reading” undoubtedly meant reading aloud.
Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become popular.
One should be careful, however, of supposing that silent reading came about simply because
reading aloud is distraction to others. Examination of reasons connected with the historical
development of silent reading shows that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading
tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.
The last century saw a gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers. As readers
increased, so the number of listeners dropped, and thus there was some reductionin the need to read
aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the popularity of reading as
a private activity in such public places as libraries, trains and offices, where reading aloud would
disturb other readers in a way.
Towards the end of the century there was a still heated argument over whether books should be
used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as
newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in
education. However, whatever its advantages, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was
replaced by the printed mass media on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized
readership on the other.

By the end of the century students were being advised to have some new ideas of books and to use
skills in reading them which were not proper, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social,
cultural, and technological developments in the century had greatly changed what the term “reading”
referred to.

Câu 31: Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth century?
A. Because silent reading had not been discovered
B. Because there were few places for private reading.
C. Because few people could read to themselves.
D. Because people depended on reading for enjoyment.

Câu 32: The development of silent readingduring the nineteenth century showed _________.
A. a change in the position of literate people.
B. a change in nature of reading.
C. an increase in number of books
D. an increase in the average age of readers

Câu 33: Educationalists are still arguing about _____________________.
A. the importance of silent reading
B. the amount of information provided by books and newspapers
C. the effects of reading on health
D. the value of different types of reading material
