Reading Comprehension: I Can Read Spanish!  (Quiz 3)

This Spanish Difficult Review quiz is the third quiz in a series of five that will challenge you on your reading comprehension ability. Come on now, this can be fun! In fact, it will work very much the same as the Spanish Difficult Review quizzes titled Reading Comprehension: I Can Read Spanish! (Quiz 1) and Reading Comprehension: I Can Read Spanish! (Quiz 2). However, there will be one small twist here and that is that the quiz questions will also be in Spanish. If you have not taken Quiz 1 and Quiz 2 yet – please do so now as they will help you to take this quiz and the remaining two quizzes.

As was stated in the introductions of Quiz 1 and Quiz 2, this series of quizzes were created to help you to practice your thinking and comprehending abilities in Spanish. That combination is a MUST be able to do skill if you ever want to become fluent in your new language of Spanish. You can take your time with the quizzes but don’t take too long. Again, you are training your brain to think quickly in two different languages – so quickly that it is a smooth transition from English to Spanish and from Spanish to English. It does take a lot of practice so if you are willing to do the practice you will be well on your way to becoming bilingual (speaking fluently in two different languages).

The challenge here is to read a couple of short paragraphs that are in Spanish. Once you have read the short paragraphs, move on to the quiz questions. These too will be in Spanish. You must then find the correct Answers but the Answers will be in English! Therefore, if you are up to the challenge – you can now begin the quiz!

Lo fue una vieja mansión blanca en la arriba de la colina más grande. Muchos gentes en la ciudad de abajo no hicieron ir cerca la casa. Algunas gentes fueron asustadas. Isabel, la hija del capitán de la policía, no estuvo asustado de la mansión. Ella supo que la mujer vieja que quedó allí no fue una bruja. Ella fue una hada.

Isabel comenzó a visitar la hada cuando ella tuvo siete años. Ese fue el día después de que su madre murió. Ella estuvo muy triste en esos días. La hada la ayudó a través de los años a medida que creció. Isabel fue feliz que las gentes dejaron la mansión sola, porque de esa manera ella guardó la hada a sí misma. Si la mujer vieja no fue una hada, Isabel nunca quiso saber.
