How the test works

Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

- Hello Patrick! You are an animal lover and a camping enthusiast. Could you tell our listeners how to combine both so that dog owners can spend a relaxing camping trip with their best friend? - First of all, you need to decide whether your dog will sleep inside or outside the tent. I find it best to follow the routine that you already have established at home so that your four-legged friend is more comfortable. Know also that not all campsites accept dogs. Therefore, you will have to make sure that your campsite accepts them, and you will need to check their requirements. Don't forget the necessary documents such as proof of vaccinations. Otherwise, you could consider bivouacking, which would give you more freedom to put your tent up wherever you want to. - Patrick, thank you so much for all these extremely useful tips!
