24.8According toGuglielmo CavalloandRoger Chartier,reading aloudwasacommon practiceintheancient world,the MiddleAges,and aslateasthesixteenth andseventeenth centuries.Readers were^listeners attentivetoareading voice/9and“the textaddressed tothe earas much astothe eye.The significanceof reading aloud continuedwellinto thenineteenth century.Using CharlesDickenss nineteenth century asa pointof departure,it wouldbe usefulto lookatthe familialand socialuses of reading aloudand reflectonthefunctional changeofthe practice.Dickens habituallyread hiswork toa domesticaudience orfriends.In hislater yearshe alsoread toabroader publiccrowd Chaptersof reading aloud alsoabound inDickenss ownliterary works.Moreimportantly,he tookinto considerationthe Victorianpractice whencomposing hisprose,so muchsothat hiswriting ismeant to be heard,notonlyread onthe page.Performing aliterary textorally ina Victorianfamily iswell documented.Apart frompromotinga pleasantfamily relationship,reading aloudwas alsoa meansof protectingyoungpeople(孤独的)fromthedanger ofsolitary reading.Reading aloudwasatool forparental guidance.Bymeans of reading aloud,parents couldalsointroduce literaturetotheirchildren,and assuch the practice combinedleisure andmore seriouspurposessuch asreligious cultivationintheyouths.Within thefamily,it wascommonplace forthefather toread aloudDickens readtohischildren:oneofhis survivingand often-reprintedphotographs featureshim posingonachair,reading tohis twodaughters.Reading aloudinthenineteenthcenturywas asmuchaclass phenomenonasafamily affair,which pointstoawidespread beliefthat Victorianreadership primarilymeant amiddle-classreadership,Those whofell outsidethis grouptended tobe overlookedby VictorianpublishersoDespite this,Dickens,withhispublishers Chapmanand Hall,managed todistribute literaryreadingmaterials topeople fromdifferent socialclasses byreducing theprice ofnovels.This wasalso madepossiblewith thetechnological andmechanical advancesin printingandthespread ofrailwaynetworks atthe time.Since theliteracy levelof thissection ofthe populationwas stilllow beforeschool attendancewasmade compulsoryin1870by theEducation Act,a considerablenumber ofpeople fromlowerclasses wouldlisten torecitals oftexts.Dickenss readers,who werefrom suchsocial backgrounds,might haveheard Dickensin thismanner.Several biographersof Dickensalso drawattention tothefact thatit wastypical forhis textstoberead aloudin VictorianEngland,and thusilliteracy wasnotan obstaclefor readingDickens.Reading wasnolongera chieflycloseted formof entertainmentpracticedbythemiddle classat home.A working-class home was inmany waysnot convenientfor reading:there weretoo manydistractions,the lightingwas bad,andthehomewasalso oftenhalf aworkhouse.As aresult,theVictorians fromthe non-middle classestended tofind relaxationoutside thehome suchas inparksand squares,which wereideal placesforthepublic togo whileaway theirlimited leisuretime.Reading aloud,in particularpublic reading,to someextent blurredthe distinctionsbetween classes.The Victorianmiddle classdefined itsidentity throughdifferences withother classes.Dickensspopularity amongreaders fromthe non-middle classescontributed tothe creationofanew classofreaders whoread throughlistening.Different readersof Dickenswerenotreading solitarilyand“jealously,touseWalterBenjamins term.Instead,they oftenenjoyed amore communalexperience,anexperience thatis generallylacking intodays world.Modem audiobookscanbeconsidered acontemporaryversion ofthepractice.However,while thetwentieth-and twentieth-first-centurytrend forindividuals tolisten toaudiobooks keepssome characteristicsof traditionalreadingaloud-suchas“listeners attentivetoareading voice”andtheear beingthe focus—itisafarmoresolitary activity.、1What doesthe authorwant toconvey inParagraph1A.The significanceof readingaloud.B.The historyof readingaloud.C.The developmentofreadingpractice.D.The rolesof readersin readingpractice.、2How didthepracticeofreadingaloud influenceDickenss worksA.He started to writeforabroader publiccrowd.B・He includedmore readablecontents in his novels.C.Scenes ofreadingaloudbecame commoninhisworks.D.His workswere intendedtobeboth heardand read.、3How manybenefits did readingaloud bring toa VictorianfamilyA.
