I didn't understand #1
2 either I am in fear of you OR I fear you (with the second one being my preference)
3 a bit harder If you say, "I'll test you in English tomorrow," it could be understood as the test will be conducted in English, rather than some other language. In your sentence, I would probably say. "I'll test you you one the English Chapters (or English material) tomorrow.
The students would probably say, "What time is the test?" Just because it's simpler. Yours is ok.
In this conversation, the teacher would say, "I'll give the test at 9 o'clock." It would be THE test just because we're talking about a specific test, not just "any old test." You get more of that sense if you said "a test."
For the last one, I'd probably say, "What subjects are covered in the test tomorrow?" The "subject test" is a somewhat awkward wording. |
