What reading level is Town Life in Australia 1883 8 4 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Besides this, the tendency of a new country is towardspractical knowledge--small profits, and quick returns; and in classicsthe outlay of time is considerable, the returns slow, and the profit notalways very perceptible. Science receives daily increasing attention, asat home. Geography is better realized by colonial children, and, I shouldfancy, better taught. In fact, all English subjects, as they are called, get their fair share. Mathematics, even in those lower branches whichcome within the ...scope of a school, are not a favourite subject, althoughabout the same number of school-hours are devoted to them as at home.
The school-hours generally begin about nine a. M. ; but school lasts tilltwelve. Second school begins at two, and lasts till four, when theday-boys go home. Half-holidays, ordinary or extraordinary, are rare; butSaturday is always a whole holiday. The main bulk of holidays are atChristmas, when some seven weeks are usually given. The midwintervacation rarely lasts a month, and short breaks are allowed at Easter andMichaelmas, after the fashion of all schools comprising any large numberof day-boys.
