In Flyers Reading & Writing Part 2, your child reads a short dialogue with five gaps and chooses the correct responses from a list labelled A–H. It tests everyday conversational English — questions, answers and follow-ups — and whether children can keep track of who says what.
Your child reads a dialogue in which one speaker's lines are printed and the other speaker's lines are missing.
Below the dialogue is a list of possible responses labelled A to H.
For each of the five gaps, they choose the letter of the response that fits the conversation.
Some letters are left over at the end — not every response gets used.
Read the whole dialogue through once before choosing anything — a response has to fit what comes after the gap as well as before it.
Match question words to answer types: 'Where…?' needs a place, 'Whose…?' needs a person, 'How often…?' needs a frequency.
Leftover letters are distractors, so an unused option is not a sign of a mistake.
Read dialogues aloud in two voices at home — it builds an ear for what a natural reply sounds like.
Rebuilds conversations by choosing the response that fits — exactly Part 2's task. Free to start; upgrade unlocks the full question depth.
It is the bank of possible responses: eight lettered options for five gaps, so several are never used. Your child picks the letter that fits each gap in the conversation. Because options outnumber gaps, guessing by elimination alone is unreliable — the response has to genuinely fit the exchange.
Conversation, mostly. The gaps hinge on whether a reply makes sense in context — answering the question asked, reacting naturally, keeping the topic going — rather than on grammar rules. Children who regularly hear and read simple English dialogue tend to find it intuitive; grammar drills alone will not get them there.
Make question-and-answer exchanges part of daily practice: one person asks, the other answers naturally, then swap. Reading graded dialogues aloud in two voices works too. On the exam page itself, teach the habit of re-reading the line before and after each gap — the fit must work in both directions.
