    You usually give comprehension exams to people, then take the average and median scores for each age/grade level, from which you see where people fall relative to children in different grade levels.

    You would be surprised how many people make it through college with barebones if any reading comprehension. You think an engineer or finance bro is putting in the same hours as an English major to better their vocabularies, or reading comprehension?
