What is a cloze test?

A cloze test is a test in which one is asked to supply words that have been removed from a passage in order to measure one’s ability to comprehend text.
definition from Oxford

A cloze test is a way of testing comprehension by removing words or letters from a passage or sentence and then asking the reader/learner to supply the missing elements. For this reason, it is also sometimes referred to as a gap-fill exercise.

With cloze tests you can pursue different learning goals:
- Cloze tests generally promote and improve reading and text comprehension.
- With cloze tests you have to read carefully and recognize which word, which ending or which letter is missing.
- Grammar and spelling are practiced in a fun and playful way with Cloze tests.
