What reading level is Home Geography And World Relations book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
(See Fig. 159. ) Points and Necks of Land. On some coasts the bays are numerous and each bay may have many smaller bays on its edge. Then the coast is very irregular. Between one bay and the next there is, of course, a tongue of land extending out into the water and ending in a point of land. Such a point is called a cape. (See Figs. 107 and 113. ) If the cape is high and ends in a cliff, it is often called a head- land or promontory. (See Fig. 108. ) The tongue of land may be joined to the mai...nland by only a low, narrow neck. A slight THE OCEAN AND OCEANIC COMMERCE 57 increase in the height of the water would separate the tongue from the mainland and make it an island. An area of land which is thus nearly surrounded by water is called a peninsula, which means almost an island. (See Fig. 113. ) Sometimes the word penin- sula is applied to any large projection of land into the water, as when we speak of the southern peninsulas of Europe or of Asia. The narrow neck of land connecting one large body of land with another is an ist limns.
