The wording of these instructions can be adapted, provided the meaning is retained. This is the English reading test: Paper 1. The test will take around 30 minutes. We are going to spend some time going through the practice page for the rst text in the booklet together. When we have done that, you’ll need to answer the questions quietly on your own. Try to answer as many questions as you can. If you can’t answer a question, you should move on to the next one and come back to it later on if you have time. If you want to change an answer, you should rub it out or put a line through the answer you don’t want to be marked. When you have answered the questions for the rst text, you should check your work carefully and then put your pen or pencil down. Then we’ll go through the practice page for the second text. There will be di erent types of question to answer, including: • writing an answer on a line • putting a tick in a box next to the answer you think is correct • putting ticks in a table to show if an answer is true or false. If you have any questions during the test, put your hand up and wait for me/someone to come over to you. Remember, I/we can’t help you answer any of the test questions or read any of the words to you after the practice page. Do you have any questions? Now, write your name on the front of the booklet.
