The Key to English Series - Two-Word Verbs
This manual is intended to help the student, to master a troublesome matter, the combination verb + adverb (or preposition), with or without a following noun object. These combinations are variously called "two-word verbs", "merged verbs," "compound verbs," "verb-adverb combinations"... We are dealing, of course, with structures like put it on, call up Mr. Smith, take this information down, in which a verb and a function word (adverb) work closely together to express a meaning. In addition, when an object is present, these words may be separated by noun objects and must be separated by unstressed pronoun objects. Such combinations are usually called "separable" two-word verbs.
Constructing Test Items: Multiple-Choice, Constructed-Response, Performance and Other Formats
Constructing test items for standardized tests of achievement, ability, and aptitude is a task of enormous importance. The interpretability of a test's scores flows directly from the quality of its items and exercises. Concomitant with score interpretability is the notion that including only carefully crafted items on a test is the primary method by which the skilled test developer reduces unwanted error variance. The aim of this entire book is to increase the test constructor's awareness of this source of measurement error, and then to describe methods for identifying and minimizing it during item construction and later review.
