Examen II: Lunes 21 de noviembre

Hola a todos

Aquí está la información sobre nuestro examen la próxima semana.

The format is similar to Examen I.   It is all inclusive, although the emphasis will be on lessons 4 and 5.

students that can expect to:

A) Fill in the blanks in situations where they have to:

1. Conjugate verbs in the present tense within given contexts [remember all the irregulars and stem changers].  The infinitives to be conjugated may be given in either English or Spanish. [Ellos (to fly) ___________ a Cancún esta noche].

2.  Use the present progressive.

3.  Use tener expressions in context.

4.  Use comparative forms.

5.  Complete sentences with appropriate vocabulary, or come up with the appropriate term based on a short definition:

Mi hermana no es morena, es ________.

Comer por la tarde es ______________.

 

B) Write short paragraphs or dialogues based on situation-like topics.  Students can expect to write on two topics similar to those that appear in the Qué dice Ud. sections at the end of each lesson [see for example p 116 and 144].  30 to 40 words per topic is expected.   This part will account for about 30 to 35% of the exam.

 

C) Translate into Spanish. This section is text-specific and comprises the translation into Spanish of short situations or paragraphs similar to those we practice in class [with Practica de Traduccion].  This section is all inclusive in terms of vocab and structures and will account for about 35 to 40% of the exam..
