"In our newsroom each morning our writers carefully choose which of the events in the news shine the best light on the undercurrents that shape modern life. We try to explain these events without bias in the best, uncomplicated English prose we can write, backed up with illustrations, glossaries, further reading and discussion points. We try to pinpoint the essential debates that our stories raise, to leave our readers well equipped for debate or discussion."

Determine the Reading Level of a Text
The Lexile Analyzer® in the Lexile® & Quantile® Hub allows educators to paste or type in text to receive a Lexile range and view text characteristics along with challenging words and their definitions. The Lexile Analyzer measures the complexity of the text by analyzing characteristics such as sentence length and word frequency. Generally, longer sentences and words of lower frequency lead to higher Lexile measures; shorter sentences and words of higher frequency lead to lower Lexile measures. Texts such as lists, recipes, poetry and song lyrics are not analyzed because they lack conventional punctuation.
English and Spanish texts can be measured by the Analyzer.
