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 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 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 mentally weakening. Indeed, this argument remains 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 specialized 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, if not impossible, for the oral reader.
The social, cultural and technological changes in the century had greatly altered what the term “reading” implied.

Đáp án C
Thông tin: 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.
Dịch nghĩa: Các cuộc kiểm tra của các yếu tố liên quan đến sự phát triển lịch sử của việc đọc thầm đã tiết lộ rằng nó đã trở thành chế độ đọc phổ biến cho hầu hết người lớn chủ yếu là bởi vì chính nhiệm vụ đó thay đổi trong bản chất.
Như vậy sự phát triển của việc đọc thầm trong thế kỷ trước đã thể hiện một sự thay đổi trong bản chất của việc đọc. Phương án C. a change in the nature of reading = một sự thay đổi bản chất của việc đọc, là phương án chính xác nhất.
A an increase in the number of books = sự gia tăng số lượng sách.
“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 specialized readership on the other” = văn hóa đọc viết chung cũ đã biến mất và được thay thế bởi các phương tiện truyền thông đại chúng in ấn trên một mặt và bởi những cuốn sách và tạp chí cho độc giả chuyên môn trên mặt khác.
Thông tin trong bài chỉ cho biết số lượng sách, báo, tạp chí tăng lên thay thế cho văn hóa đọc chia sẻ. Đây là hệ quả của việc đọc thầm phát triển chứ không phải nguyên nhân gây ra nó, vì nếu trình độ học vấn không tăng lên thì số lượng sách tăng lên cũng không có nhiều người có thể đọc nó.
B. an increase in the average age of readers = sự gia tăng về độ tuổi trung bình của độc giả.

D. a change in the status of literate people = một sự thay đổi trong địa vị của người biết chữ.
