INTRODUCTIONPurpose of the testsThese multiple-choice tests are designed to assess students' progress during courses of study from beginner up to the end of intermediate level. The language items are derived from an analysis of the common core of items to be found in widely used coursebooks, including Penguin's Way Ahead, Cassell's Foundation English, Longman's Kernel series. Streamline and the Strategies series. This battery of tests has been produced for a wide range of situations and has been field-tested, so that, we hope, it will serve your needs, given that no tests will fit every situation exactly.Each book in the series contains ten tests of forty items each. Within each book there are three levels of language difficulty and three alternative or parallel tests for each level. The tenth test in each book, called the Review Test, is designed to function as an achievement test, and contains a range of language items from the other nine tests and a few at a level slightly beyond the level of the book:Ii-i'i r ;LEVEL ONELEVEL TWOLEVEL THREEACHIEVEMENTTestlTestlTestlReview TestTest 2Test 2Test 2TestaTestaTestaThe teacher's notes to each book contain:-a distribution list showing the kind of language items being tested - this can be used for diagnostic purposes;-an inventory of the language items;-a key to the tests.Level of the testsTeaching systems and situations vary widely.
