Quote: Athene, Sunday, 7 Mar 2010 14:22I'm relieved and delighted to have struck lucky with a speed-reader who actually had a useful contribution to make, but I'm not taking any more chances ... I'm going to change my reading test so that you actually have to read the work pretty carefully to answer it, and that word-search won't help. Don't make it too hard. It's in very safe hands at the moment!

 I went back and changed them, just in case, and I got them wrong myself.  Hope you enjoy it!

I had a reading test recently which was so obscure that I spent an hour just trying to find the answers. Please don't do anything like that!

It's funny how some members seem to think they need to trick the reviewer with their questions. - What do you think my character would like for tea tomorrow? - Okay, that's an exaggeration, but you get the gist! They should realise they'll lose some decent reviews if we can't pass the test because of some obscure game they're playing. Not to mention a heck of a lot of time wasted on the review that then just goes into oblivion.

Not to mention a heck of a lot of time wasted on the review that then just goes into oblivion.  It's not as frustrating as when you set a ridiculous test of only possible answer "A's" because of the nonsense options "B&C", yet someone still contrives to fail. Can only assume it's their verdict on one's book and they can't face leaving a review...
