INSTRUCTION: Read the paragraph, then tap the best summary.
TEMPLATE: There are things that you should do before you go on vacation. Check your car. Fill it with gas. Take some common tools with you. Always have a jack, a wrench, and a spare tire. Don't forget your driver's license and extra change. Drive carefully and fasten your seatbelt. Do these things, and you'll have a good, safe trip.

INTRO: Two short paragraphs. Read each one and choose the title that fits the whole paragraph, not just one detail from it.
INSTRUCTION: Read the paragraph, then tap the best title.
TEMPLATE: One store at the Big Tree Mall sells everything. It's called Dilley's Department Store. You can buy clothes, furniture, books, and many other things there.

OPTION: a | Big Tree Mall
OPTION: b | Dilley's Department Store
OPTION: c | A Department Store

Rhode Island is on the Atlantic coast and has good weather. The temperature in July is usually about 69 degrees. Because temperatures in some of the other states on the Atlantic coast are very high in the summer, many people go to Rhode Island for their summer vacations. It's a popular place in July.
OPTION: a | Summer Vacations
OPTION: b | The Atlantic Coast
OPTION: c | Rhode Island
ANSWER: c
# Source: ST §Ask and Answer
$PRODUCE Ask and Answer with Gerunds
ID: l5-s4
INTRO: Back to gerunds — the -ing forms after verbs like begin, enjoy, and finish. Use the cues to make a question, then answer it in a full sentence, out loud.
INSTRUCTION: Make a question from the cues, then answer with the second cue. Use a gerund.
RUBRIC: Require both the question and the full-sentence answer — reject if either part is omitted. The verb + gerund pattern is the point: the second verb must appear as a gerund (working, studying, reading, washing) in both parts; a missing -ing form fails. The question's tense should match the model answer. Otherwise accept any natural phrasing.
TEMPLATE: when / begin work / restaurant — last month
RESPONSE: When did you begin working in the restaurant? I began working in the restaurant last month.
TEMPLATE: when / start study — 1800 hours
RESPONSE: When did you start studying? I started studying at 1800 hours.
TEMPLATE: what kind magazine / enjoy read — news magazines
RESPONSE: What kind of magazine do you enjoy reading? I enjoy reading news magazines.
TEMPLATE: when / stop work / last night — 2200 hours
RESPONSE: When did you stop working last night? I stopped working at 2200 hours last night.
TEMPLATE: why / keep on read — book interesting
RESPONSE: Why did you keep on reading? I kept on reading because the book was interesting.
TEMPLATE: when / finish wash — an hour ago
RESPONSE: When did you finish washing? I finished washing an hour ago.
