Quiz 1
The first quiz was very easy. All that I needed to do was look for what the question asked without thinking. The tricky part of this quiz is not falling into the trap of picking answers that correct the examples.
Quiz 2
This quiz was a lot more challenging. It was difficult to remember everything I needed from the textbook. I did not know about the different types of verbs, which make up a significant portion of the quiz. I fell for the trick in the final question.
Quiz 3
This quiz was easier than the second one, though I still got some wrong. The questions were simple, asking to choose between a correct and incorrect option. The part of the quiz I had the most difficulty with was the concept of collective nouns and how they should be referred to grammatically.
Quiz 4
The questions were generally not difficult, although I did make silly mistakes. The most problematic part for me was I kept choosing answers that I knew were correct, rather than the ones that best suited the question.
Quiz 5A
The quiz was fairly easy as most questions were about punctuation and grammar, so it was simple to pay attention and pick the correct answer. The difficult part of the quiz for me was Question 9, as I didn’t fully understand what was meant by inversion.
Quiz 5B
Most of the questions were simple, they only required basic logic and math knowledge. Some of the later questions were a bit ambiguous and confusing. There was one rule I had forgotten and it made me get two questions wrong.
Quiz 6A
The quiz questions were very easy for me. I don’t find grammar and punctuation difficult. The only question I got wrong was Question 8, because I’m not used to using brackets.
Quiz 6B
The questions for this quiz were more challenging than some of the prior ones. Some of the questions were a bit more ambiguous and some answers I was sure were incorrect did turn out to be correct.
Quiz 7A
This quiz was very easy, some questions were completely obvious. The most difficult part of the quiz was that some of the questions were ambiguous in what answer would suit them
Quiz 7B
The questions were pretty easy, the answers were lifted almost directly from the textbook. The only question I got wrong was Question 5, which has multiple correct answers. One is just more correct than the others.
Quiz 8
This quiz basically asks you to check the textbook during it on No.10, which is bizarre, but otherwise was fairly simple. I have an issue with Question 1. In Question 1, it is implied that Hicks states the journalist’s most common fault is exaggeration, when he only suggests it in the book. I got it right anyway but it is still ambiguous. Question 4 is pretty odd as well.
Quiz 9
This was a surprisingly difficult quiz for me. My rewritten versions of sentences and the site’s corrected versions didn’t really match. I had issues with rearranging the sentence when it wasn’t really necessary. I was able to get rid of the passive voice of those sentences.
