Instruction


Each test word must be associated with the correct
alternative. There are 5 alternatives. Here is an example:

bicycle peace sun wheel forest food

"wheel" is the most general and natural association. A wheel is actually part of a bicycle.

Make sure you answer all the questions. Try to guess intelligently. Try to find two or three alternatives that seem impossible, and then choose one of the remaining two or three.

You will find that the words at the beginning of the test are quite simple, but as you go along you will find that they get more difficult. You ought to find the last twenty or thirty words quite "hopeless", but please keep trying to guess intelligently.

Always do like this:

  1. Take a test
  2. Check your result carefully
  3. Do the exercise
  4. Save words to your glossary
