Or if you want to stick with your code and dont want to concatenate then
instead of < please use < and > use >
Your xml code: This is test XML yes
Revised xml code: This is test <b>XML</b> yes

It is because after "This is test" you have written XML and it will consider
as a different element and it is not giving you the text inside you will get the text inside in next iteration. So you can hold the previous value in string and concatinate with the new value to get the entire string.
Try the following method
Check my xml file:

[B]This is test XML yes [/B]

while (reader.Read())
{
   if (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Element)
     {
        strNodeName = reader.Name;
     }
   if (reader.NodeType == XmlNodeType.Text)
   {
       if (strNodeName == "MayPara")
        {
            strvalue = reader.Value.ToString();
        }
        if(strNodeName == "b")
        {
           if((strNodeName !="")
           {
              strNodeName = strNodeName + reader.Value.ToString();
           }
        }
   }

}
