Some days ago, I read about phrasal verbs (I think it was in one of the Disal issues),and the author of the article has said that the particle of the phrasal verbs have to have a sense.Having said that, question number 8, I made a guess, a wrong one, I chose “off”, cause I was thinking it makes sense, but then the right answer was “up”. Giving a little thought to the answer I realized that it also makes sense, because if it is pouring DOWN, the opposite of DOWN is UP.We can make the association in our minds to try to remember it. LET UP, diminuir.

Thanks again, although I’ve read an excellent article about vocabulary related to rain (lots of new words, and it has helped me in this test), you prove that there are endless ways to say things in English.

I really liked this quiz, by the way, all of them are really helpful to me, ‘cause I’m always teaching and translating. Thanks for everything.

    I missed a lot of questions, but it is all right because we learn from our mistakes. Thank very much; I am enjoying your website a lot. I’d like also to tell something: I asked Ana about private class (via skype/msn,etc), and she gave me website (I now forgot its name), but it was so expensive to me, so I’d like to know if you know someone that teachs English for a good price. I can speak English already, but it is not very well yet, so I really need to improve it. Thanks again

OH MY GOD! For the first time I missed all the questions! (Errei todas as questões pela primeira vez!) Sem chutes e pulando o que não tinha noção.
Acho que isto é sinal de que as dicas foram boas pra mim… rsss

Eder 15/02/2010

Poxa vida, eu errei bastante e me surpreendi, pois me viro muito bem com meu inglês (que considero intermediário). Pois é, vivendo e aprendendo,kkk. Muito bom o site

Alice 13/02/2010

Since we live in a draught area, rain is always a subject that interests the students. I teach many subjects through English and this will be the next one. Thanks.

Hi Ira, Nelson and Drica

First of all, thank you for taking the quiz.
It’s nice to know Ira that you were able to make this association. It’ll certainly help you to remember it later on. I usually do that too.
I’m glad you liked it Nelson! Every Wednesday we have a new quiz on the site. It’s also great to know Drica that it helped you to learn new words!

Best,

Sérgio
