    * If a new section starts in the middle of the last page
      of your reading assignment, the reading assignment ends
      at the beginning of that new section.  Similarly, if a
      new section starts in the middle of the first page of
      your reading assignment, the assignment begins at the
      beginning of that new section.  Thanks. GBA
