C2 Key Word Transformation

This edition of practice tests has been written to closely replicate the Cambridge

exam experience, although it is also suitable for any English-language student

working at CEFR C2 level.

This resource contains 200 exam-styled, single-sentence assessments, each carrying

a lexical/lexico-grammatical focus, testing lexis, grammar and vocabulary.

Each assessment comprises a sentence, followed by a 'key' word and an alternative

sentence conveying the same meaning as the first but with a gap in the middle.

Use the key word provided to complete the second sentence so that it has a similar

meaning to the first sentence. You cannot change the keyword provided.

Each correct answer is broken down into two marks. Next to each sentence

transformation answer is a guide indicating the focus of the two parts of the

answer: either G (grammatical) or L (lexical). This device gives a rough indication

to help you with your revision for the exam.
