4. Make a list of your most common grammar mistakes and learn the rules.

1. This will help you to make fewer mistakes.

4. This will help you to feel more confident about questions that you are worried about.

TAKING THE EXAM

2. When you take the exam, which things should you do? Which things shouldn´t you do? Write YES or NO.

1. Make sure how many marks each question is worth. Decide how long to spend on each question.
2. Spend a long time on the first question.
3. Start with the question that you feel confident about. If you aren´t sure of an answer, go onto another question and come back to it later.
4. Check that you have answered all the questions.
5. Look at the context to guess the meaning of any important words that you don´t know.
6. Try to translate every word in the reading text.
7. Spend a few minutes planning your essay.
8. Write an essay longer than the number of words given in the essay question.
9. Leave time at the end to check your answers and do any questions that you left out.

Day of the Book

Did you know that next April 23rd is the Day of the Book? And did you know that we celebrate it on this date because that´s the date in which Cervantes died? Ok, I want you to look for a anecdote of History happened on this date, an efemeride, or just something curious to say of it, e. g. in Catalonia they celebrate St. George (23rd) giving a rose and a book, to simbolize "The passion for reading". Good enough, right? Write it down and look for a picture of it on the internet to print together with your text, my mail box will be waiting for you next Wednesday!!

We can go to the Museum next 14th, it begins an exhibition of worldwide historical costumes dating back from the 12^th up to the 19^th century.
