CXC CSEC English A exam - Paper 1 topics

CXC English A exam paper 1 contains sixty (60) compulsory multiple choice questions organized into two (2) sections.

(Compulsory means that you have no choice, you have to do ALL the questions on this Paper.)

Section 1

Section one (1) is made up of twenty (20) separate multiple choice questions. In this section, you will be tested on the following skills:

Section 1 skills

Comprehension

Grammar

Punctuation

Paragraphing

Section 2

Section two (2) is made up of forty (40) multiple choice reading comprehension questions based on your understanding of five (5) passages. The passages will consist of,

1) One poem

2) One narrative extract

3) One expository extract

4) one persuasive abstract ( e.g. an advertisement, speech or letter to the editor)

5) one visual abstract (e.g. a table, diagram, map, chart, cartoon or advertisement)

In this section, you will be tested on the following skills:

Section 2 Skills
Comprehension

Analysis
Evaluation

Each question on this paper is worth one (1) mark. You should attempt to answer ALL 60 multiple choice questions on this paper. (If you don't know an answer then guess!)

Take me to the Caribexams.org library to practice with some online multiple choice tests.

Thanks

Hi, I'm very glad to have found your site, as I will be studying an English teachers course, so have brushed up on my own grammar, and want to test myself. This will also remind me of what it was like to learn English, and to appreciate how my future students will feel when I test them. Have to be relevant.
