In my Literature Classes we have this reading. Could you tell me when
usually young people read this book in Great Britain. What I mean is which
grade so how old they are.
Did you like this book? And do you have any nice memories from your classes
at school

Regards
Pawel

Please do not think I am mean or something.

Look, Pawel, this group is for discussion of usage of the English
language in the UK. It is not for the discussion of other aspects of UK
culture, or nice memories of schooldays. There are plenty of other
groups where you can ask that kind of question - you have already been
recommended to seek out newsgroups populated by teachers, for instance.
This kind of question is completely irrelevant to this particular
newsgroup.

Now, don't start whinging - this group is not going to turn into what
you want it to be. We've cut you a lot of slack, but firing up three
brand-new threads just after it has been clearly explained to you what
you are doing wrong is, IMHO, taking the piss.

My post was irrelevant.

I know now.
I hope next one is what you would like to see here.
