What reading level is Six Months Among the Malays And a Year in China book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The eyes of some of them were sKghtly drooping and oblique, and wherever this peculiarity is observable, it denotes a onelange of the Chinese and Malay races. In general the physiognomy of these men is very expressive, particularly of artifice and cunning. The first whom I had an opportunity of observ- ing, came on board our vessel for the purpose of exchanging fowls and fruit for a few cotton hand- kercliiefs and articles of household use, of which they are extremely covetous.
These people pre...fer the commerce of exchange to any other, and as they have not the slightest idea of the value of coin, they would fr-equently give for an earthenware vase, or bottle, articles of merchandise for which they would refuse seve- ral piastres.
Most of these Malays were naked down to the waist, and indeed their only covering thence consisted of a pair of very short pantaloons ; their heads were decorated with a kerchief of red cot- ton, and the everlasting kriss was, of course, placed at their sides.
