You need to supply the read command with something to read from. Which you did in the first version, but which you missed in the second. Either redirect the last line from the first positional parameter when calling the script as you do now, or redirect the entire script's stdin from $i in the caller.
Same two options for the file name: Either echo $i in the caller, or echo $1 early in the script itself.
