Now you have explained it makes sense, although all your csv files are incorrectly numbered 
Requires a few more blocks to make it work.
Yes ?

Is the title read out in the sound file ?
No, The title isn't read in the sound.
Yes the design now is correct.
Herewith the blocks that read a csv file from assets and display in the textbox (the beginning!)

now to handle the timings and the sound file

Thank you all of you!
I believe we have a working solution.

It has not been possible to create a banded display in a single textbox.

Hello Tim,
I really appreciate you for the great job you have done.
If it's possible to:
1- Cancel the "Read only button" because I don't want to read a single text instead of that, I want to add "Read when you highlight any single text by touching it" I mean when you touch any single text, the single text is being highlighted after that click "Read all button" to start reading all texts next.
2- Add a ListPicker to select (1.csv, 2.csv, 3.csv ,,,, 114.csv)
3- Add a ListPicker to select Reader (1sound.csv 2sound.csv ,,,,, 15sound.csv) I mean every single reader reads (1.csv, 2.csv, 3.csv ,,,, 114.csv)
Thank you very much Tim
1 You can hide the Read Only button and remove the code.
2 & 3 Use all the code you have previously used to fetch and read your CSV and sound files.
4 Try changing the content of the variable 'linebreak' to a space or two spaces. There would be more work to centre the title.

1- I mean if it's possible to highlight the text instead of showing the type curser
2 & 3 I' will try and let you know how is going on.
4- I tried but it shows an error message.
1 We need the cursor to know where we are in the text in order to be able to select it.
4 Try putting \t in the variable linebreak, instead of \n, this works for me.

1 You are right, I mean that I want to show the highlight on text by focus or by a long click on the text instead of the cursor before clicking on "Read only button" and before start reading with the sound. I mean that I want to highlight the sentence which I want to listen it.
4 I tried putting \t, but the title comes along side with text 1
- There is no
clickevent when you touch the text, therefore you have to start a clock running by pressing the Read Only or Read To End buttons in order to catch the text cursor position and start things running. - You will need to write more blocks code to separate the title from the read texts. However, you did say:
for this
Please remember that what I have provided is a demonstration of the reading of highlighted text with a sound file, synchronising the spoken words with the written words, to prove what is possible with a textbox and extensions.

I am sorry to disturb you Tim.
1 I suggest to cancel Read Only and Read to End buttons in order to start things running by a long touching the text and we just make only one method Read to End unless we click stop button.
2 I will try to find some blocks to modify the title.
Thank you so much Tim
Hello Tim,
When I put the cursor on the text, it shows the Typekey and also I can delete the text. So, please how can I disable the typekey and delete function?
Find the highlighter procedure, and add a hideKeyboard block. The keyboard still flashes up momentarily. I will see if I can find a better solution meanwhile.

Yes, I added the hideKeyboard block and it flashes momently.
