How the test works

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

Yesterday, like every year, I went to see the fireworks. The festivities started around 8pm, with the New Year's Eve meal. My sister and I met our friends there and we had a lot of fun! Then around half past eleven, everyone headed for the football [US: soccer] field to be able to admire the fireworks. I've always loved all the colours, and the gold in the middle of the night sky... I've always found that magical!

I'll be right with you...
