Notes for teachers
Use Part 1 as a warm-up, then work through the civic vocabulary in Part 2 and the writing accuracy items in Part 3. The test targets typical errors such as missing capital letters on holidays, months and place names, wrong collocations (e.g. 'make a holiday' instead of 'celebrate'), and confusion between word forms such as independent/independence. As a follow-up, dictate the correct sentences from Part 3 so learners practice writing them as in the interview.
