B2 AND C1 OPEN CLOZE TESTS

An open cloze test is an exercise where you are provided with a text with missing words which need to be filled. The open cloze tests your knowledge of language structures and your understanding of the text. The words you need will either be grammatical words such as articles, prepositions, modal verbs, auxiliary verbs, pronouns, quantifiers, or lexico-grammatical words, such as linking words, parts of phrasal verbs and fixed phrases.
How to do it: 
1. Look at the title if there is one.
2. Without trying to fill in any answers, quickly read the text to see what it is about.
3. For each gap, look at the context and decide what kind of word is needed ( an article, pronoun, preposition, etc.)
4. Study the words on either side of the gap for more clues.
5. Think of words that might fit and try each one.
6. When you have filled in the gaps, read your text to check it makes sense.
