Excerpt from Reading Made Easy for Foreigners: Third Reader The pupils of this class may be considered as hav ing passed the transition stage of which mention was made in the Second Reader, and as having entered upon the last stage in acquiring the English language. They have not only acquired a considerable vocabulary, but have now a practical mastery of our vernacular. They use English in their conversa tion; in short, they have acquired the power of ex pressing their feelings and thoughts in the English language. Notwithstanding all this, they are con scious of the fact that their language is less idiomatic than that of the native born, and their power over the written expression is wofully weak.
