A bad day at the office

Mr. Gonzalez is the president of the Sabritas Company in Tijuana. He has staff of energetic employees. Unfortunately, all of the employees are out today. Nobody is there. As a result, Mr. Gonzalez is doing everybody´s job, and he´s having a VERY bad day at the office.

He´s answering the telephone because the receptionist who usually answers it is at the dentist´s office. He´s typing letters because the secretary who usually types them is at home in bed with the flu. He´s sorting the mail because the office´s assistant who usually sorts it is on vacation. And he´s even cleaning the office because the janitorial who usually cleans it is on strike.

Poor Mr. Gonzalez, it´s a very busy day at Sabritas Company and nobody is there to help him. He´s having a VERY bad day at the office!

OUR OPINION

Our exam was designed by ourselves; it is focused in the four skills. The present continuous and the simple present are the topics that we want to measure. Since it´s a first level class the activities in this test are simple and easy, in some of them we put examples so the students can understand better the activity. The grades were divided into 5 and 10 points, giving the 5 points to the easier activities and the 10 points to the more difficult ones. The test is worth 35 points; we didn´t want to grade the test with more points because we wanted to give them opportunity to have a good grade at the end of the course.
