The objectives of the Study The Scope of the Study
                                                                                2. For the textbook author, although most of reading texts in the textbook are
classified  into  medium  level  of  difficulties,  they  also  should  design  the appropriate  texts  in  English  teaching  or  English  curriculum  design  for
vocational school level with the suitable needs. It is suggested to design the next  textbook  by  considering  low  level  of  clause  complex  and  medium
lexical  density because it  is  in  written text, it means to  the vocabularies  of words which have to be adjusted with their levels, so they can enhance the
vocabularies based on their needs, not only the generic structure. 3.
Anyone interested in understanding of reading text should be familiar with Grammatical  Intricacy  and  Lexical  Density  LD.  It  is  very  clear  who  is
difficult  in  processing  the  text  must  be  caused  of  GI  and  LD  in  the  text which is reading.
4. Textbook publishers who publish the next textbook should consider the two
terms  of  lexical  density  and  grammatical  intricacy,  so  that  there  are  many readers  who  interested  to  use  the  textbook  because  it  is  more  clearly
understandable. So, the textbook will be qualified and popular.
