④アルコール&ドラッグテストを無事クリアしましたー♪
アルコールドラッグ講習のサイトに、試験会場の情報が載っています。私の家の近所の「ベセスダ」があるじゃーん!電車で2駅で行けるじゃーん!と思ったら、ベセスダ駅からは大分というか相当離れていて、車じゃないと行けないところでした。
試験会場と呼べないほどの小さい事務所というか小部屋でした。
しかも、場所はショッピングモール内と書いてあったのですが、カーナビで検索できないほどの小規模なところでした。
その小部屋には、事務員の人が1人ポツンと座っているだけで、用件を夫が伝えると(これだから上達しないのだが・・・)、用紙を渡されて、名前とか住所とかを記入し、パスポートを渡したら、問題と回答用紙をもらいました。ちなみに、40$かかります。
で、あいてる長机でテストを受けるわけですが、勉強したノートを隣に置いたままでも何も言われなかったし、いい加減だわさ。
テスト問題は、ネットの講習で出てきた問題がそっくりそのまま20問で、選択肢の順序がたまに変わっているくらいでした。
問題読まなくても、選択肢見たら答えが分かっちゃいますので、満点取れました。
さて、次の筆記テストは難関らしいので、勉強しなくちゃ・・・
練習問題はMVAのサイトでできます。間違っていると、「incorrect」って出るだけで正解を教えてくれなくて意地悪です!
