Hello!
Here is a compilation of different resources that will help you in your preparation for the First Certificate Exam. Please make the most of this time at home to prepare the four components you can work on individually: Listening, Reading, Writing and Use of English. We will have time to continue working on the Speaking component when school life returns to normal!
Past Paper Practise Links
- An entire sample paper (All Five Components: Reading & Use of English, Writing, Listening and Speaking) published on the Official Cambridge English website: https://www.cambridgeenglish.org/Images/174037-first-2015-sample-papers-1.zip
I strongly encourage you to attempt all these past papers. You'll be able to mark the Reading, Use of English and Listening papers yourselves (Marking Schemes are also available in the ZIP file). You're more than welcome to email me (carla.lane@iessoto.com) the Writing paper if you'd like for your essays to be corrected.
- Reading and Use of English Practise
You will find 4 Reading Tests and 4 Use of English Tests linked on this website. You'll be able to correct these tests yourselves. You can either print the paper copies or do these tests online, whatever you prefer.
Please remember that the Reading and the Use of English components are found in the same paper, even though they are different components.
The Use of English section has four components:
1. Multiple Choice Cloze 2. Open Cloze 3. Word Formation 4. Key Word Transformation.
The Reading section has three components:
1. Multiple Choice
2. Gapped Text
3. Multiple Matching
Hope you find these resources useful. Have a nice weekend!
Carla
