English test!
I got 3 in my English test… For you who doesn’t have our mark (1, 2, 3, 4, 5) 3 is equal with C in American marking system (I think that you have F, D, C, B and A).
I can’t believe, well actually, I can, because as I already said, my English sucks and that’s the primary reason of this blog: “To make my English better!”
But beside this, we (my class and me) think that teacher gave us a bit harder test, a bit upper than our level. Please see example, this was exercise one, some stupid letter, you need to put tenses into empty lines. And also please write me your answers to see what native English speaker will put. I had only 12 points of 18 in this exercise…
