----- Original Message ----- From: "Judy Givati" <jesg50@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: AUthentic text for HOTs When the HOTS manual states "Authentic Text has not been simplified." does that mean that abridged editions appearing in books like "Way AHead" and "Well- Read " ( I KNOW the latter is a jr hi book..but it's the only example \I can think of at the moment ) of " THank You Ma'am" or "The Chaser" are not acceptable??? jesg ----------------------------------------------- ** Etni homepage - http://www.etni.org or - http://www.etni.org.il ** ** for help - ask@xxxxxxxx ** ** to post to this list - etni@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ** -----------------------------------------------
