Dear All

I think I presented the second table in a misleading way - it's not so much
about each sentence, but about the function of advising. I'm attaching it
again, together with the two actual tables on the sentences. Thanks to
Martin Edwardes for sending me a table with the breakdown of responses
entailing '(1) is not advice' and '(2) is not advice'. 


Advice

			All	All-%	NS	NS-%	NNS	NNS-%
(1) is advice [A+B]	34	20.9%	21	18.9%	13	25.0%
(2) is advice [A+C]	93	57.1%	65	58.6%	28	53.9%
None is advice [D]	36	22.1%	25	22.5%	11	21.1%
TOTAL			163		111		52	


Sentence (1)

			All	All-%	NS	NS-%	NNS	NNS-%
(1) is advice [A+B]	34	24.8%	21	22.6%	13	29.5%
(1) is not advice [C+D]	103	75.2%	72	77.4%	31	70.5%
TOTAL			137		93		44	


Sentence (2)

			All	All-%	NS	NS-%	NNS	NNS-%
(2) is advice [A+C]	93	67.9%	65	69.9%	28	63.6%
(2) is not advice [B+D]	44	32.1%	28	30.1%	16	36.4%
TOTAL			137		93		44
