What reading level is Young China book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I fancy that English children suppose all Chinese children to be very odd and strange beings. And I am sorry to say that Chinese children are taught to speak of English children as being very curious beings indeed. But as we go to China to try and teach the Chinese children better, so should I be glad if I can give to English children true ideas about the Chinese.
What do these children, with their little pigtails, eat ? you will ask me. Is not cat or dog their usual dish? It may be so sometime...s. You may have heard the old story of an English gentleman who was invited to a dinner-party in a Chinese gentleman's house. He could not speak Chinese well; so being doubtful as to a dish which was set before him,, he pointed to the dish, and then turned to his host, and asked, " Quack, quack ? " which plainly meant, " Is this duck ? " The host shook his head, and, using the same language, replied, " Bow-wow " — plainly meaning, " No, it is dog." The notice " Black cat always ready" may be seen, I believe, in a butcher's shop at Canton.
