There are three sections, that involves the next abilities:
1. Listening comprehension
2. “Drafting” indirectly, and use of the language
3. Reading comprehension and vocabulary
The largest section is the third one (duration: 45 minutes) and the smallest is the first one (25 minutes).
Naturally, the level of difficulty increase in each exercise.
Listening comprehension The student will listen a short sentence (only one time), and he have to select the point with the answer of the sentence listened.
Example:
What should I do when I finish the test?
a) You can begin right now
b) Give it to the teacher
c) I’ll finish it for you
Obviusly the right answer is the point b): For this kind of excercise, we have to check that the answer has a connection with the original question; when we read the two senteces, they have to make sense.
“Drafting” indirectly, and use of the language The student has to complete the sentences (to fill the empty space) with the options below.
Example:
Myrna _____ her lunch yesterday.
a) Forget
b) Forgot
c) Forgets
d) Forgetting
The answer is b): We can know it because of the gramatical form corresponging to the pasto on the sentence. We have to use the correct verb tense, and the only option in past is b) (she forgot).
Reading comprehension and vocabulary Now you have to select the anwer of the sentence written on the top.
Example:
Why are you late? the teacher asked. The student answered, “Because______.”
a) She is my sister
b) I missed the bus
c) You look very nice
d) We really enjoy school
The correct optin is b) because it’s the only point that answer correctly the question on the top. But the most difficult exercises of the third section are those of Reading comprehension; to do it right, I have to practice at home, reading big texts, learning new and ussefull vocabulary, studying grammar and solving similar exercises that I can find in the web or in english books.
Now, I show you some pics about my english test:
Good!
