careful,however,of supposing that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is distraction(分散注意力)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.2020年10月2日59The last century saw a gradual increase in literacy(读写能力)and thus in the number of readers.As readers increased,so the number of listeners dropped,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 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.2020年10月2日60Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully,and over whether the reading of material such

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.2020年10月2日63III.Grammar1.The predicate 谓语谓语1)He arrived here a week ago.2)Ill be back in five minutes.3)He has been here for a week.4)I cannot get him to
