What you’ll learn
- Apply the A1 patterns to a connected situation.
- Separate what a text says from a plausible but unsupported guess.
- Use the result to choose a useful review lesson.
Review the connections
Connect identity and location, articles and adjective agreement, and a subject with its present-tense verb. Remember that hay introduces existence, while estar locates a known person or thing. Time phrases distinguish the current time from the time of a plan.
Read the passage once for the situation and again for the details. Identify who performs each action, the time reference and any contrast or change. If a verb is unfamiliar, use the surrounding sentence before checking the translation. The final questions combine form and meaning, so choose an answer that fits both.
Me llamo Leo y vivo en una calle tranquila. Tengo veintidós años. Cada mañana estudio español en casa. Hoy son las nueve y tengo hambre. Hay una cafetería cerca del parque. Voy allí con mi hermana. Ella quiere un té sin azúcar y yo pido un café con leche.
My name is Leo and I live on a quiet street. I am twenty-two. Every morning I study Spanish at home. Today it is nine and I am hungry. There is a café near the park. I am going there with my sister. She wants tea without sugar and I order coffee with milk.

Turn the result into a next step
The final assessment contains ten equally weighted questions. Eight correct answers reaches the 80% passing threshold. You can retry; a later lower score does not erase a completed assessment. Read the explanation for each missed answer, return to the related lesson and try another attempt when you can explain the pattern in your own words.
These course scores measure this set of written exercises. They are not an official language examination or a measurement of every speaking and listening skill. Keep practising through stories and real conversation as well as reviewing forms. A useful next step is one specific skill to practise, not simply repeating the same answers until you remember their positions.
