LEL #3

For my third LEL I did the reading skills diagnostic: Literary text. I figured I could see how well I read in english. I had to read three text and a poem and correctly answer questions about them.

I scored 34/40, wich makes 85%.

I found this test rather interesting, because even if it was rather long, I love reading. But still, I think that two text would have been enough. When I saw the third text to read, I was a little discouraged to read all that only for a diagnostic test.

I didn't find this test so hard, but it wasn't easy either. I had to think and read the texts again and again to be sure I had understood. The question were about comprehension of the plot and the author's meaning and many other things like main ideas, point of view and vocabulary.

I didn't really learn anything new, but I guess doing tests like this are good practice to read and analyse faster. That would come in handy for tests wich I don't have much time.

I would give this test a 10/10. It's a well conceived practice tool.
