Three sets of questions are presented separately, being the 221 questions (subset 3} searched on the 1400 collection, the 35 seven starting term questions (subset 1} searched on the 1400 collection, and the 42 questions (subset 2} searched on the 200 collection. Results for index languages I.l.a and 1.6.a are given. and the three different performance curves for each question subset and language are given in Figs. 4,420P - 4.425P. No adjustment has been made in these graphs for the d£ffer/ng generality number amongst the different plots, since only the relative position of the curves on each plot is important.
