TASK 1

In order to help us to assess your level of English, and therefore your needs, please

anyone for help and do not use a dictionary or any other book to help you.

Look at the 10 multiple choice questions above. This is part 1 of a level assessment
which is sent out to our overseas students. You will obviously have no problem in
finding the correct answer, but explaining your choice can be more problematic.
What do you think is being tested in each question? Explain in your own words or
use grammatical terms if you know them.
That is, do NOT write what the correct answer is. Only write what students are being
tested on in each multiple choice task. Your answer could be like this, for example:
'This tests students' knowledge of the difference between the second and third
conditionals' or, if you don't know the terms, 'sentences with 'if' referring to the past
and imaginary future'.
