To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
She nudged Lord Clapham. " Wake him! " She could not help laughing. It was as difficult for the British Minister to Japan to tackle a sleeping midshipman as it would have been if he had been called in to wake a boa-constrictor. He could not give a shake. Laying his hand on the sleeper and calling to him had less effect than a fly walking over the boy's face would have had. Chiquita suggested the sponge, and after a great deal of persuasion Lord Clapham took it. But instead of giving Kenneth wha...t boys would call a " cold pig, " he sponged his face like a hospital nurse. At last Kenneth started up and Chiquita fled, 2o8 PLAYING THE GAME expecting some forecastle language, but Kenneth awoke with a silence which may have been an art cultivated by midshipmen to disappoint practical jokers. Her uncle called after her to come to the door and explain. He could not make Kenneth believe anything, not even that he was the British Minister. Chiquita repeated in a shrill voice what she had heard from the Chinaman.
