Keep each detail attached to its condition
Review seven original notices and messages by tracking dates, opening times, changes, requests, restrictions and conditional plans.
Seven reading choices concern the supplied texts only. They do not assess listening, speaking or independent German writing.
Locate the sentence that supports the answer
Before choosing a statement, find its support in the passage. A fresh fictional notice says Die Werkstatt ist am Montag geschlossen. Am Dienstag öffnen wir um neun Uhr. Monday is the closure day, while Tuesday has an opening time. Recognising the word öffnen is not enough if you attach it to the wrong day. Keep each detail with the sentence and event it belongs to. This task checks reading the supplied text, not knowing a real workshop’s hours or guessing what most businesses usually do.
Distinguish access time from start time
Two times can be correct while describing different events. In a new example, Einlass ab 18 Uhr and Beginn um 18:45 Uhr give entry and the event start separately. A question about the start cannot be answered merely by selecting the first number you see. Name the event before retrieving its time. The examples are fictional and do not require a live calendar or clock; they ask whether you can preserve the relation written in the notice without substituting a familiar schedule.
Separate what changes from what remains
An update may change a room without changing the day or hour. A fresh fictional message says Der Termin bleibt am Freitag um elf Uhr, aber wir treffen uns jetzt in Raum 6. The words bleibt and jetzt organise the information: the appointment stays at its time while the place changes. A supported summary must combine those parts correctly. Do not move the appointment to another day because you recognise a change marker, or mistake a room number for a starting hour.
Track the requested action and its boundary
A notice may ask for a completed form by a named day. Read the action, the object and the deadline together rather than recognising only one familiar noun. If a later sentence explicitly says another day is too late, use that constraint instead of inventing an extension. This is a reading exercise under fictional terms, not a statement about a legal deadline or a real organisation’s acceptance policy. If the original text leaves a detail unknown, a supported answer should not pretend that the missing detail was supplied.
Read negative and limiting words carefully
Words such as kein and nur can change the available interpretation of a familiar sentence. In a fresh invented sign, Dieser Raum ist nur für Mitarbeitende. Gäste warten bitte im Foyer, the restriction concerns this room and the next sentence gives guests another place. It does not say that guests may never enter the building. Look for the exact scope of the restriction and the alternative actually offered. This avoids turning a narrow written condition into a much broader prohibition unsupported by the text.
Carry the condition through to the conclusion
Wenn and sonst can connect alternative plans. A new fictional note says Wenn der Bus ausfällt, nehmen wir den Zug. Sonst fahren wir mit dem Bus. The train belongs to the cancellation branch, not to every possible day. Ask which condition the passage supplies and which consequence follows from it. If the text provides a forecast or an expectation, keep that qualification rather than claiming a guaranteed real-world event. The quiz supplies invented plans; it does not fetch transport status, weather or other live facts.
Use a new passage after reviewing the keys
For unscored revision, write a short fictional notice with one unchanged time, one changed location and one explicit condition. Then identify which sentences support each detail without translating the passage word for word first. The seven-item count reflects matching choices on these supplied texts, not a CEFR classification or a measure of every written skill. German stimuli and options remain unchanged across the English and Chinese interfaces; explanatory text is bilingual. Retaking the same bank can reward recall, so a fresh passage offers a separate opportunity to practise reading.
