i'm german, had a 4/D in english final exams after 10 years of english classes, and afterwards became fluent in english within like half a year by just chatting in international communities, and i am able to read that sentence.

so i guess i truly was part of a failed english teaching Initiative, but i dont think thats what they mean lol.
