Hi, I am from China and learned Chinese as my first language. First, I think people in ancient China mostly read aloud. In China, there is a famous proverb “讀書有三到，謂心到眼到口到”（Reading has three arrivals, that is, the heart, the eye, the mouth）written by Zhu Xi, who lived in Song dynasty. Besides, I have inner voice when reading or writing Chinese( except when I read very fast). Just for reference.
