importing text

Having a problem importing a text file.

The file is rows of data with one tab delimiter within each row. Each row
ends with a return. In each record is a row often containing a large amount
of text. Sometimes not all of the text gets imported. It seems to get cut
off at arbitrary locations, like the midde of a word.

Like, here is a sample text:

The Culver City Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) provides volunteer
assistance to the Culver City community under the direction of the Culver
City Fire Department in case of an earthquake, other disaster or major
emergency. Training classes consist of a 22-1/2 hour course taking place
three times annually (one Tuesday evening and three Saturdays), culminating
in a live disaster response exercise. Training is open to anyone living or
working in Culver City, although residents of nearby jurisdictions with an
active CERT program may also take the class, depending on available space.
Graduates receive a helmet and vest and are organized into neighborhood
teams. Following each training session, graduates have the opportunity to
take a test to receive their FFC ham radio license. Neighborhood and
city-wide drills are conducted at various times throughout the year to
provide members with the opportunity to practice the skills learned in
class.

Here is what I get:

Other records, some with even more text, get imported just fine. I can't
figure it out.

What can be going on?

Thanks
