阅读 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 阅读 aloud.Only during the nineteenth century did silent 阅读 become commonplace.
One should be wary,however,of assuming that silent 阅读 came about simply because 阅读 aloud was a distraction to others.Examinations of factors related to the historical development of silent 阅读 have revealed that it became the usual mode of 阅读 for most adults mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.
The last cnetury saw a steady gradual increase in literacy and thus in the number of readers.As the number of readers increased,the number of potential listeners declined and thus there was some reducion in the need to read aloud.As 阅读 for the benefit of listeners grew less common,so came the flourishing of 阅读 as a private activity in such public places as libraries,railway carriages and offices,where 阅读 aloud would cause distraction to other readers.
Towards the end of the century,there was still considerable argument over whether 图书 should be used for information 或者 treated respectfully and over whether the 阅读 of materials 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 literacy culture had gone and was replaced 由 the printed mass media on the one hand and 由 图书 and periodicals for a specialised readership on the other.
由 the end of the twentieth century,students were being recommended to adopt attitudes to 图书 and to use 阅读 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.

I'm looking at the black ceiling, in this empty room I sit.
I'm leaning my back on cold 墙 where light of the sun can't reach me.
I don't have any peace, same pictures are repeating in my head.
The grey clouds rise above and I'm goin out for the rain.
Let the cold drops from the skies give me peace and break my sadness.
But even hard rain can't clear thoughts of you.
And feels like I'm falling in deep abyss, dark water swallowing me as I close my eyes and turn my head up to sky.
It's eating my mind, taking away my dreams.
Oh please pull me out, stay with me.
Today I'm not goin out, I'll reamin in the dark waiting for you.
I'll defy to all my desires cause I can't ask anymore from you.
I'll be 唱歌 only for 你 my angel.
Oh please pull me out, stay with me.

I have this image in my head of a girl who spent the first 17 years of her life being loved. Loved 由 her parents, her brother and sister, and everyone in school. She doesn't know the meaning of hate. Then this mysterious guy come to her school. He doesn't say much and the only person he notices is her. But he is different then the other guys at her school he is too sexy to be real. They fall madly in 爱情 but what she doesn't know is that he has been alive for the last 268 years. He is no vampire but something that can scare the helll out of you. And he has a immortal enemy, and that enemy is the boy who is filled with so much hate all the immortals call him...The deffinition of hate(his real name being Marcus) And the girl so finds out that Marcus will stop at nothing to take her away from him and 显示 her what it's like to be hated
“You can’t!” I screeched, griping the thick 草 beneath my paws.
“The whole forest will belong to the Pack of Shadows!” the dark 狼 exclaimed enthusiastically, his 毛皮 flickering like shadows, “No 狼 will stop us!”
I have to do something! I couldn’t let it end like this! Not with the alpha in this state! Not with the pack 分裂, 拆分 in four!
“Out of my way pup!” he tossed me aside like a tiny mouse.
“No!” I leaped at him, biting and clawing with all my strength.
“This is pointless! 你 cannot defeat me she-wolf!” I felt him bite me and fling me away again. I was too tired to 移动 now, after traveling this far without resting, I can no longer breathe enough to live.
I’m over; this is the end of the Pack of Ice! I lay winded and defeated, awaiting death’s arrival patiently.
~Let 你 Go~
1: On and on ~ the days go by
Without a sight of 你 或者 my sanity
I'm 迷失 not found ~ I wanted to 显示 你 , I wanted to tell you...
Chorus: If I say I'm sorry will 你 believe me?
If I 爱情 你 again will 你 never leave me?
I made a mistake when I 说 no
I never should have let 你 go...
2: I ring your phone but no one answers, I'm alone
Days are spent 阅读 your old letters, but with a groan,
I'd put them away, In the draw they'd lay until tomorrow...
Tomorrow...
Chorus-
3: This moping, not coping is killing me
My soul is not at rest when I long for it to be
I wish you'd come back 或者 my fears may come true
When I left you, I still loved 你 and I think 你 knew
Chorus-
Darlin' don't forget me
I'm locked and you're the only key...

Another poem 由 me. This one came out kinda lame,but I'll let the rating be the judge (assuming there will be any).
That Girl
Have 你 seen that girl,
That goes around here and there?
Nobody knows where she’s going,
Is she even going somewhere?
Pretty face, pretty hair,
Nobody knows her name,
She seems sad, what a coincidence,
I’ve been feeling the same.
She seems lost,
Doesn’t even know where she’s from,
I’m a nice guy so I invite her,
To stay in my home.
She seats in the couch,
My, is she pretty?
I wonder what I can say,
To comfort that girl , so dreamy.
Sarah,
She tells me it’s her name,
She feels sad,
Funny,
Because I’ve been feeling the same

Only in my dreams
You're missing, but you're always
a heartbeat from me
I'm 迷失 now without you
I don't know where 你 are
I keep watching
I keep hoping
but time keeps us apart
Is there a way I can find you?
Is there a sign I should know?
Is there a road I could follow
to bring 你 back home?
Winter lies before me
Now you're so far away
In the darkness of my dreaming
The light of 你 will stay
If I could be close beside you
If I could be where 你 are
If I could reach out and touch you
And bring 你 back home
Is there a way I can find you?
Is there a sign I should know?
Is there a road I could follow
to bring 你 back home?
To me...
