Here comes the English test that I'm taking this weekend...
http://stepeiken.org/
Surely it's all around the world? I didn't know it was even in America! Is it as familiar as those like Toeic or Toefl?
I am having a hard time concentrating on this test. It seems to be much more difficult than I expected, especially tons of difficult words that I've never even seen before... some of them I can't even guess how to pronounce. I think the vocabulary is the trickiest problem for me to get over... TOO MANY complicated words!
What depresses me the most is that even the sentenses that's written in easy English, I can't even get to the correct answer.
To show you a little...
Some example questions in the textbook that I couldn't come up with the right answer.... so mad at me about this!
Choose the best answer from among the four choices for each blank.
(1) The strict diet she is on has started to ( ) on her health.
1 give 2 tell 3 catch 4 hang
The correct answer is 2.
(2) He ( ) away 20% of his salary every month.
1 put 2 entered 3 gave 4 set
The correct answer is 1.
I get so depressed when I couldn't answer these easy questions.
Of course, these easy kind of questions are only a few in the test, and most of them are much more difficult and tricky. So what am I going to do if I was lost in such easy ones!
Oh well..... wish me luck!
