form).
I used the test to receive some results and to point
out the level of the forming of grammar skills on theme “the degrees of
comparison of adjectives”. The test consisted of 5 tasks.

Read and translate
Once
there lived a Rabbit, His name was Bunny. He was grey and big, bigger than his
brother Bonny. But he had no tail. And he wanted to have a long tail, longer
than that of Mrs. Fox.
One day
Bunny went for a walk. He saw Mrs. Fox.
“Hello,
Mrs. Fox”, he said, “Where are going?”
“I’m going
shopping.’
“What are
you going to buy?”
“I’m going
to buy a tail.”
“But you’ve
got a tail! I think it’s the longest and the most beautiful tail!”
“Well, but
I want a new one, alonger and more beautiful one than my old tail.”
