Here is an uncommonly difficult test of your grammar skills.
I scored 165/200, which somewhat astounds me. I would have thought it'd be a fair bit lower.

A lot of them were not really the same or opposite, but I agree with andy that (out of the words that I knew, of course!) it was pretty obvious if you had to try for an answer which way round it was. Of course this is subjective - mayeb if you were more precise about the meanings it might be harder.
I would have had 'secrete' in twice (with different 'match' words) as a tricky one :-)

Date: 2003-02-11 11:01 am (UTC)Well, I got bored after answering 17 of them, so decided to see how I'd done. I got 14 / 17, which translates to 164.705882359 out of 200.
I should have stopped after one tbh.
