What reading level is Horizons book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Modern conveniences, such as plumbing, electricity and central heat- ing, have been added. Increased building costs have resulted in skimping on materials and workmanship. Mechanical knickknacks and decorative what- nots have been introduced to hide the deterioration of essential parts.
The outstanding limitations of houses to-day may briefly be summarized as follows: Costs are excessive, due to waste space in planning. Useless rooms such as attic and large cellar add to the expense of construc...tion and upkeep. Little-used rooms such as the dining room and sleeping porches are uneco- nomical. 101 There is frequently the additional expense of exterior and interior ornament of old styles, Colonial, Tudor, Norman or Spanish, applied over modern construction. Houses are too often planned from the exterior. Rooms are fitted into a Cots wold cottage or a French chateau, with cramming and inconvenience in consequence. Porches cut off light from adjacent rooms. Heating and ventilation facilities are not thorough.
