Build a quiz from the words you are actually studying

Most B1 courses hand students a new word list every unit, and the B1 vocabulary quiz that follows is where recall really gets tested. A quiz built from your own list checks whether you can use a word in context, not just recognize its translation.

  • Multiple-choice items that test meaning in context rather than translation
  • True/false items for confusable pairs such as affect and effect
  • Short-answer prompts for productive recall before you check the list
  • Explanations that point to the clue in the sentence that settles the answer
Example B1 vocabulary quiz questions
Choose the best word: The hotel staff were very ___ and solved every problem we raised. A) helpful B) hopeful C) hopelessA) helpful. Helpful means giving assistance, which fits staff who solve problems, while hopeful describes feelings about the future.
True or false: 'customs' and 'costumes' have the same meaning.False. Customs are traditions or border checks, while costumes are outfits worn for a role, party or performance.
In the sentence 'The bus service is reliable', what does reliable mean?It can be trusted to happen or work as expected. Reliable is a common B1 adjective for people, transport and equipment.
Which phrasal verb means to postpone something? A) put on B) put off C) put outB) put off. Put off means to delay, while put on means to wear or start a show, and put out means to extinguish or inconvenience.

Frequently asked questions

How long should a B1 vocabulary quiz be?

Keep it tied to one unit so the words are fresh, and a short quiz of about ten items is enough to check recall. Longer quizzes work better once you have already reviewed the list.

What is the best way to learn B1 vocabulary?

Try to recall each word from memory before you look at its meaning, and write one example sentence for it. Spaced review helps because you return to a word just before you would forget it.

Can I export the quiz to Moodle or Word?

DOCX and PDF export are included in the Plus plan, and QTI 2.1 and Moodle XML export are on Pro. The free plan lets you study in the browser without exports.

Does DeckOwl include ready-made B1 quizzes?

No, the quiz is generated from your own material, so upload a word list, unit text or slides and it writes questions from those. The free plan includes 3 generations per month.
