What reading level is A Woman's Impression of the Philippines book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" The young man turned aninsolent eye upon the teacher--a gray-haired woman--and replied, "It's good enough for me. What are you going to do about it?" I cannot conceive that a Filipino child would be guilty of suchinsolence, such defiance of decency and order. But never have I metan American child who would have the artless indiscretion to puthimself in the position of Domingo. The American child does not mindviolating a rule. He is chary of criticising its propriety or itsvalue. In other word...s, the American child does not mind doing wrong, but he is wary of making a fool of himself; and I have yet to meetthe Filipino child who entertained the faintest suspicion that it waspossible for him to make a fool of himself. Nor is the attitude ofdissent among Filipinos limited to those who express themselves. Itis sometimes very trying to feel that after long-winded eloquence, after citation and demonstration, you have made no more real impressionupon the silent than upon the talkative, and that, indeed, the gentlereserve of some of your auditors is based upon the conviction thatyour own position is the result of indomitable ignorance.
