What reading level is The Outbreak in China : Its Causes book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
General Parsons, in his survey of the Hankow-Canton Railway, met with little opposition ; but the officials saw to it that he was well protected. Captain Pot- tinger, in his survey connected with the Yunnan Railway Commission, did not come off so easily, but met with determined opposition — in fact, he had to fight his way through a part of the Province of Szechuen. In other words, the geople_of^Chinia^jdo_npt ^Z want the railw^, and the persistent effort to construct it strengthens their anti-...foreign sentiment. 46 THE OUTBREAK IN CHINA We must also bear in mind that, in addi- tion to railway syndicates, China has been flooded with mining syndicates and com- mercial commissions. The altruistic spirit of these commercial pioneers is not very apparent to the Chinese. We know that it will be advantageous for China to have her mines opened, but the Chinese, partly from superstitious reasons, and partly from their innate conservatism, do not believe so, and especially object to its being done by foreign capital.
