Cumulative level test: Sound and first exchanges

Check understanding, separately from reading

10 questions · 80% to pass · no timer. This longer test revisits both units in the level. These authored questions assess recognition and application of the taught distinctions, not professional qualification. You may review the lessons and retry. Repeat attempts reuse the question bank; a remembered answer is not proof of transfer to a new situation.

Saving a lesson records reading only. Previous lesson completions have not been converted into passing scores. You can continue reading without a pass; the assessment remains unpassed.

Question 1

Open your mouth comfortably and sustain a short ah without turning it into the English letter-name ay. This first mapping helps separate a letter’s sound from an English name.

Question 2

The displayed character looks like an English B but represents a v sound. Touch upper teeth lightly to lower lip and let air vibrate, rather than closing both lips for b.

Question 3

In a fictional meeting between friends, the displayed greeting opens the exchange naturally. With an unfamiliar official, choose a more formal greeting from the extended lessons.

Question 4

At a first meeting, say the displayed formula and pause briefly before your name. The phrase introduces identity rather than asking the other person a question.

Question 5

A clerk hands over a receipt; you use the displayed phrase. You are acknowledging help, not necessarily agreeing with every statement the clerk made.

Question 6

When asking for an item, the displayed word softens the request. After thanks, it can mean you are welcome; context selects the reading.

Question 7

In a fictional exchange, a friend asks in English whether you are ready; you answer with the displayed Russian word. It confirms readiness.

Question 8

When offered something you do not want, the displayed word supplies a short no. A polite tone and a thank-you may make the refusal warmer.

Question 9

You are looking for the metro entrance. The displayed question asks where it is, not whether you own it or where you went yesterday.

Question 10

A speaker gives directions too quickly. Use the displayed phrase, then ask for repetition from the next level. Repair supports communication rather than ending it.

Continuing does not mark this assessment passed.
