Themenquiz 1: How verbal reasoning tests work

  1. Frage 1 von 15

    What does a verbal reasoning test mainly check?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. How well you understand and reason about written information

    Verbal reasoning tests check careful reading: understanding what a text says and what follows from it. Special knowledge is not needed.

  2. Frage 2 von 15

    When you answer questions about a passage, which information should you use?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. Only the information in the passage

    Answer from the passage alone. Outside knowledge can lead you to a different answer from the one the passage supports.

  3. Frage 3 von 15

    The Government of Canada's Skills for Success model describes reading as your ability to do what?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. Find, understand and use information presented through words, symbols and images

    Skills for Success defines reading as finding, understanding and using information. Sharing information in writing is the separate skill of writing.

  4. Frage 4 von 15

    You need to find the date of a meeting in a long memo. Which reading method is quickest?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: A. Scanning for the date

    Scanning means looking for one specific detail, such as a date or name, without reading every word. Skimming is for the general idea.

  5. Frage 5 von 15

    What does it mean to skim a passage?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: C. Read it quickly to get the general idea

    Skimming is fast reading for the main idea, for example the title and the first sentence of each paragraph.

  6. Frage 6 von 15

    Why is it often helpful to read the question before you read the passage closely?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. You know what to look for

    Reading the question first tells you which key words and details to look for in the passage.

  7. Frage 7 von 15

    A test has 30 questions and a 24-minute time limit. About how much time do you have for each question?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: C. 48 seconds

    24 minutes is 24 × 60 = 1,440 seconds, and 1,440 ÷ 30 = 48 seconds. 24 ÷ 30 = 0.8 minutes, which is 48 seconds, not 80.

  8. Frage 8 von 15

    You are stuck on a hard question in a timed test. What is usually the best thing to do?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: D. Pick your best answer, mark it if you can, and move on

    Managing your time matters. Give your best answer, mark the question for review if the test allows it, and come back if time is left.

  9. Frage 9 von 15

    In the online tests described by the Public Service Commission of Canada, what effect does marking a question for review have on your score?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: A. It has no effect on your score

    The Public Service Commission says marking questions for review does not influence your score. It is only a reminder to come back.

  10. Frage 10 von 15

    In the Public Service Commission of Canada's online tests, what happens when the time is up?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. The test closes

    The Public Service Commission says a timer shows the time left, and the computer closes the test after the allotted time.

  11. Frage 11 von 15

    You think you need an accommodation, such as reader services or an alternative format, for a test. What does the Public Service Commission of Canada advise?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: A. Tell the person who invited you as soon as possible

    Tell the person who invited you to the test as soon as possible. Accommodation measures are tailored to your situation and the information is kept confidential.

  12. Frage 12 von 15

    You are sure that two of four options are wrong. What should you do next?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. Compare the two that are left with the passage

    Elimination narrows your choice. Then check the two remaining options against the exact words of the passage.

  13. Frage 13 von 15

    A passage says: "Most staff work in the office on Mondays." A statement says: "All staff work in the office on Mondays." Which word makes the statement go further than the passage?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: D. All

    "All" is a stronger claim than "most". Watch for strong words such as all, always, never and only.

  14. Frage 14 von 15

    A passage says: "Applications will not be accepted after Friday." Which statement means the same thing?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: C. Friday is the last day to apply

    This is a paraphrase: if nothing is accepted after Friday, then Friday is the last day you can apply.

  15. Frage 15 von 15

    A passage says: "The new system may reduce wait times." Does this prove that the new system will reduce wait times?
    Antwort anzeigen

    Antwort: B. No, because "may" shows only a possibility

    "May" and "might" show something is possible, not certain. A passage that says something may happen does not prove it will.

Häufig gestellte Fragen

What is the Certificate of Completion, and what is it not?

It shows that you finished this course and scored at least 80% on the final assessment. It is not an accredited qualification, an employer's test result or a score from any test publisher.

Are these questions from real employer tests?

No. Every passage and question was written for this course to practise the same kinds of skills. Real tests differ between employers, so read your invitation and instructions carefully.

How does the final assessment work?

It has 30 questions drawn at random from the course question bank, with a 30-minute time limit. You need 80% to pass, and each attempt gives a new mix of questions.

Do I need to know about the topic of a passage?

No. Answer using only what the passage says. If you add your own knowledge, you may choose a different answer from the one the passage supports.

Is this an English language test for immigration or citizenship?

No. This course practises the reading and reasoning skills used in some hiring tests. It does not give a language level or score that any government or school accepts.

How should I practise?

Read one lesson, take its untimed topic quiz and read the explanations for anything you got wrong. When you score well on all six topics, try the timed final assessment.

Ist die Bescheinigung akkreditiert oder offiziell anerkannt?

Nein. Es ist eine private Teilnahmebescheinigung, nur für Ihr Wissen. Sie ist von keiner Behörde, Zulassungsstelle, Aufsichtsbehörde oder Bildungseinrichtung anerkannt, akkreditiert oder genehmigt und ersetzt keine gesetzlich vorgeschriebene Lizenz, Zertifizierung oder Ausbildung.
