The differences between Cloze test and C-test

Hello everyone! So, we provide you two pictures here. These are the example of Cloze test and C-test. From these two pictures, you will see how the Cloze test and C-test are being constructed. Check it out boys and girls! Vroommm..Vrooommm...

In cloze test, the first sentence is left intact without any blanks. The fixed deletion cloze is a cloze passage where every nTH word in the passage is deleted. In the cloze passage above, n=5 means that every fifth word after the first sentence is deleted.

C-test also involve mechanical deletion but it is every second word which is mutilated. Half of each mutilated word remains in the texts in order to give the candidate a clue as to what is missing. If the whole word has an even number of letters, then exactly half are missing.For example, to = t_ .While for uneven number of letters, one more than half are missing. For instance, the = t_ _ .
