Kĩ thuật biên soạn câu hỏi Viết/ Writing questions Advantages of Limited-Response Items 1.These are generally quite easy to construct. 2.These are suitable for students with limited ability in English. 3.Except for the open-ended variety, these are rather objective for a writing-related task.

Kĩ thuật biên soạn câu hỏi Viết/ Writing questions * Guided writing E.g.: Directions: The following sentences contain errors in mechanics. But there are no spelling errors. Find the part of the sentence where the mistake occurs. Then circle the letter of that part. 1) (A) We sent for / (B) a repairman to take / (C) a look at the / (D)telephone. In the office where I work. 2) (A) The Doctor told / (B) the young soldier (C) to drive south through the valley / for supplies at the nearest city. In 1, the error occurs in part "D"; "in the office where I work" is not a complete sentence; this sentence "fragment" needs to be joined to the main sentence. In 2, the error occurs in part "A"; the word "doctor" should not be capitalized unless used with a person's name (Dr. Adams), and then it would be abbreviated. 4. Kĩ thuật biên soạn câu hỏi Viết/ Writing questions * Guided writing One way is to find a good unified paragraph and then add a sentence that is unrelated. Students have to find the sentence (or sentences) that don't fit. Here is an example: (1) Some people think they have an answer to the troubles of automobile crowding and dirty air in large cities. (2) Their answer is the bicycle, or "bike." (3) In a great many cities, hundreds of people now ride bicycles to work every day. *(4) Some work with their hands while others depend mostly on their brains while working. (5) A group of New York bike riders claim that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be less dirty air in the city from car engines. 4.

Here is an example: (1) So on April 18,1775, he started across the Charles River, where he planned to wait for a signal from a friend. (2) The American Revolution was a citizens' revolution in which ordinary men took a large part. (3) He was living in Boston when British troops arrived to keep people under control. (4) When he saw the lights, he jumped on his horse and rode through the countryside warning the people that they must fight at daybreak. (5) One such man was Paul Revere, a silver worker. (6) Like others, Revere thought the British troops would move from Boston against the villagers.(7) That night after reaching the other side, Revere saw hi friend's lantern signals. (Key: 2, 5, 3,6, 1,7,4)' 4. Kĩ thuật biên soạn câu hỏi Viết/ Writing questions * Building from a Paragraph Outline One kind of paragraph outline used for testing writing controls the content and the grammar. It takes the following form: I / buy / new white swimsuit / I forget I bring / I / mad / Becky / mother / take / we / shop / Monday night / I find / pretty blue / not expensive. / I start / pay / wallet / gone /I / borrow / money / Becky / mother / I / certainly / upset  I bought a new white swimsuit, and then I forgot to bring it.
