What you see on screen
Each sentence start has a dropdown of possible endings, with more endings than starts. Your pick must complete the sentence both grammatically and factually.
How it is marked
One mark per completed sentence; starts follow passage order though the endings are shuffled. Grammatical fit alone does not guarantee a correct match.
Strategy
- Complete the sentence from the passage first, then find the ending matching your version's meaning.
- Use grammar to discard impossible endings fast, like tense or article mismatches.
- Locate by the start's keywords, because starts mirror passage order while the ending list is shuffled.
- Reread the finished sentence; the match must hold for its whole meaning, not half.
Traps that cost marks
Choosing an ending that is grammatically tidy but claims something the passage never says.
Matching on a repeated text word while the ending quietly twists the original meaning.
