Ooh it was a combination of a really terrifying teacher* and a lack of sensible course material. We had a new course book that was being tested before being made "official" and most of the articles made no sense even if the reader knew German perfectly. It was like someone had done a random cut&paste from the Internet or something. The only thing I remember about it was an article about carsinogens in coffee!
