Look at the following text Instructions For questions 1-15, read the text below and type the word which best fits in each space. Use only one word in each space. There is an example below: (0) as

Global English Global English exists (0) ... a political and cultural reality. Many misguided theories attempt to explain why the English language should have succeeded internationally, whilst (1) ... have not. Is it because there is (2) ... inherently logical or beautiful about the structure of English? Does its simple grammar (3) ... it easy to learn? Such ideas are misconceived. Latin was once a major international language, despite having a complicated grammatical structure, and English also presents learners (4) ... all manner of real difficulties, (5) ... least its spelling system.

This sort of exercises is very common in the everyday class and they are a very important part in several international language certifications. It is true that many students do not like to solve this as it is considered as very difficult. Yes, we must understand that the complexity is considerable; however, it is not impossible to achieve a good result if we have a close look. First, let’s analyse the common things that happen during the class. Once we receive an activity like this we tend to answer directly and we consume precious time and when we talk about language certifications, time management is the difference between a good passing grade and having to sit the exam again. Due to nervousness, we want to read and then answer as soon as possible, or there are some people who will not try to solve this and even they would write their answers in a random way.

So, there is nothing to panic about these exercises. Once we complete our task, you will see that it is much easier than most people consider. The procedure to follow is this: in the beginning just follow the lecture to first understand what is the meaning and context of the text. As you have read this article you can see it talks about English. One very important thing to remember is to focus your vocabulary and grammar
