A. One should be wary, however, of assuming that silent reading came about simply because
reading aloud is a distraction to others. Examination that factors related to the historical
development of silent reading reveals that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult
reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.
B. By the end of the century students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to books
and to use skills in reading them 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.
C. Reading to oneself is a modern activity which was almost unknown to the scholars of the
classical and medieval worlds, while during the fifteen century the term “reading” undoubtedly
meant reading aloud. Only during the nineteen century did silent reading become commonplace.
D. 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 material such
as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in
education. However, whatever its virtues, the old shared literary 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.
E. The last century saw a steady gradual increase in literacy, and thus in the number of
readers. As readers increased, so 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.

It is a common saying that we do not fully value a thing until we lose it. We often value the
love and worth of a friend when he has been taken from us by death more than when he was with us
in the flesh; it is only when we have left school or college that we understand the greatness of our
opportunity of education, which has gone forever; it is the sick and the ailing who realize the value
of good health. When we are young and strong, we cannot imagine what it is to be weak and ailing.
We are so used to vigorous health that we take it for granted. The organs of our body work so
smoothly that we scarcely know we have lungs and liver, heart and stomach. But when any of these
gets upset and gives us pain and sickness, we learn by bitter experience what an unspeakable
blessing it is to be well.
Loss of health makes us miserable and a burden to ourselves and our friends. It cripples our
efforts so that we cannot accomplish many of the good and great things we might have done. It
spoils our life. What must we do to keep our health?
We must be moderate in eating and drinking and wise in the choice of plain, wholesome
simple food. Gluttony has killed thousands, and strong drink tens of thousands. We must, when
young, get plenty of sleep, which is “nature’s sweet restorer”, and not try to burn the candle at both
ends. We must live as much as possible in the open air and keep our rooms well ventilated. We must
get sufficient and regular physical exercise, and keep our body clean. And we must avoid bad habits
and secret sins as we avoid the devil, and keep our thought clean, our bodies pure. Our ideal must be
the sound mind in the sound body.

A. they are with us B. they are good to us

A. useless and selfish B. unable to fulfill our expectations
C. a shame to our friends D. fail to become famous
44. According to the author, having plenty of sleep when young …..
A. is wasting our time B. can help us regain our strength
C. may cause loss of health D. can reduce our vigour
45. The best title for the passage is …..
