Module 4: A Thousand Voices - Discovering Poetry and Short Stories

Introduction

In a few weeks or months you will be gathering up some pens and pencils and getting yourself to some gymnasium or community centre to sit down and write your provincial exam. You will likely feel a bit nervous, but if you have successfully completed this entire module, you will know exactly what to expect, and you are sure to easily complete the exam.

But now, before you write the real provincial exam, worth 20% of your final mark in English 10, you have one last chance to practise writing this type of test. You will write one more test, but your teacher will mark this one so that you can get some feedback before you write the English 10 Provincial Exam.

Instructions

Find the Post Test in Section 7 in your English 10 Exam Preparation Package. Set yourself up at a desk with a pen and pencil, and allow yourself up to two hours to answer the multiple choice and written response questions.

When the time is up, do not write anything more, do not change your answers. If you really want to know how you will do on the provincial exam you must not spend days crafting perfect answers - you won't have that kind of time at the real exam! You must submit the Post Test to your teacher as is.

Using the key provided, mark the multiple-choice sections of the exam. Write the correct answer beside the ones you didn't get correct.

Then, submit the entire exam, including the self-marked multiple-choice questions and unmarked written-response questions to your teacher for formal evaluation.
