This Part offers four activities:
• a sample history and government test
• a sample test of written English
• a test of harder questions
• a sample test for the elderly
If you want to take the tests away from the computer, you can print copies of all the tests, except for the test of written English. Answer keys are provided in the printed tests.
The sample 20 question test uses the material in all the lessons from Part 4 and is different each time you take it. You can listen to the questions and answers. Here you have one try to get the right answer because at the actual test you will need to know the right answer.
The test for elderly people (I.E., people who qualify for an easier test) has 20 questions, but there are only 25 questions that may appear in this test. So if you take the test a second time, you will see many of the same questions, but in a different order.

In the sample English writing test, you listen to 2 sentences and write or type them, then check your answers. In Part 5, when you practice English, you can listen as many times as you like, but here you can only listen three times. Each time you take the test you get different sentences.
There are about 100 sentences that may appear in the test. If you get the question wrong, you can see the right answer. If you typed the right number of words but spelled one of them wrong, the program underlines the word you had wrong.
In the Harder Questions activity, you can practice answering the 6 questions provided by the I.N.S. that require long answers. You will get the same 6 questions each time. The longest answer is naming the 13 original colonies that became the first states in the United States. This is truly hard, but it gives you a chance to practice - don’t worry if you make small mistakes in spelling or choosing words.
