You read a sentence about a rule or a duty. One or more words are missing. You complete it with the words that make the rule correct. Because the test is on a computer, you may pick from a list or move words into gaps. TfL does not describe the exact screen, so look at the "what to expect" section of its online assessment guide.
Original examples
These are our own examples, in the style of the handbook. They are not from the test.
- "A private hire vehicle must only carry passengers who have a ____ with a licensed operator." (booking)
- "You must not refuse a passenger because they are disabled or have an assistance ____." (dog)
- "If you think a child may be at risk, you must report it to your ____ and the police." (operator)
Tips
- Read the whole sentence before you choose.
- Think of the rule first. Then check the words.
- Be careful with words that look alike. One word can change the rule.
- Do not guess from grammar alone. The handbook rule decides the answer.
The best way to learn these is to know the rules in the handbook in your own words. If you only remember the sound of a sentence, one changed word will confuse you.
Language help
The test is in English. If English is not your first language, learn the key words in each section: booking, operator, licence, badge, assistance dog, safeguarding. Our translated explanations help you understand the idea.
