What reading level is Hongkong China book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The waters of the harbor literally swarm at times with the native craft, and *?wu Homes of the "Floating Population" the singsong voices of their crews, the creak of rudders, and the rustle of their grass sails mingle with the scream of sirens, the deep- throated bellow of whistles, and the lapping of the water against the beach and wharves to form a sort of symphony of the sea.
Fifteen HONGKONG The junk is peculiarly a Chinese type of ship and the first sight of one of the un- wieldy tubs is a... source of amazement to the American who has been accustomed to see- ing the trim, shapelv craft of his own and other Western countries.
si it, n The hull of the junk seems to be fash- ioned awkwardly and has a clumsy air sug- gesting a school boy in a suit several sizes too small for him. The stern is high and the bow low, the lines being rather generous above water. The underwater body, though, is often finely designed, and while the effect of the junk as a whole is ungrace- ful, it meets heavy seas with ease and rides more comfortably than many a prettier craft.
