How the test works
Below are 12 tasks: they cover every lesson of the module, and one goes back to module 16. 10 correct answers on the first try means you’ve passed the module. If you make more mistakes, go back to the lessons where they happened:
- solía, cada verano íbamos → lesson 81;
- así que, como → lesson 82;
- si quieres → lesson 83;
- la mujer que → lesson 84;
- llovía cuando salí → lesson 79.
Cada verano íbamos al pueblo, pero aquel verano fuimos a la playa. — Every summer we used to go to the village, but that summer we went to the beach.
Como llueve, nos quedamos en casa. — Since it's raining, we're staying at home.
La chica que vive aquí se llama Nora. — The girl who lives here is called Nora.
