It was again to use the interesting computer room in the international building. This time, Simon provided us with websites providing many interesting tests to do. The first test I did was finding appositive. Appositive means that an occasion when a simple sentence contains two or more noun phrases that describe the same thing or person, appearing one after the other without a word such as 'and' or 'or' between them. There is a example : My favorite tree, the horse hestnut, stands in our yard. The answer is the horse hestnut.
The second one I did was about personality types. It will give you a sentence to describe the word you have to guess. For example: Person who likes to share many things with others. The correct answer is generous. To compare this test with the first test I did, this test is more meaningful because I learned how to use a complete sentence to describe a personility by English. Moreover, this game can help me to improve my listening ability.
The last one I tried was the game about friendship. It gave you many situations and you have to choose the answer you are likely to react to the situation. After I finish all of the questions, I think the result is not correct about me.
I also found some online websites which can help you to practice listening ability.
