Prova de nível B1
Trinta perguntas sobre a gramática do nível — uma para cada lição com tema novo —, um ditado, a leitura em voz alta de um texto longo e uma escrita. Para passar ao B2 é preciso 80% na gramática (24 de 30). O ditado é conferido palavra por palavra, mas não entra nesses 80%; a leitura em voz alta e a escrita não recebem nota.
Se uma resposta não bater com o gabarito, procure na seção “O que foi visto no B1” qual lição trata desse tema e revise-a.

Ditado

Leitura em voz alta
I grew up in a small fishing town on the north-east coast, where my grandfather had worked at the port all his life. By the time I was born, the port had closed, and most of the young people had left for the cities.
I've been living in Manchester for almost ten years now. I'm used to the noise and the traffic, and I've even got used to the rain — well, almost. When I was a student, I used to go back home every summer, and my grandmother would cook enormous meals and tell us stories about the old days.
Last spring I went back for the first time in years. The town was much quieter than I remembered, and many of the shops had been turned into holiday flats. Although it made me sad, I could see that the town was changing, not dying. A young couple, whose café had opened the year before, told me that more and more people were moving there to work from home.
If I had more time, I'd go back more often. The longer I stay away, the more I miss the sea. As soon as the children finish school this summer, we're going to spend a whole month there.
