A better alternative for sentence completions?

<p>Sometimes I feel that these vocab words could be from another language, you almost have to memorize some words if you wish to get all the completions right. What if these sentence completions weren't based on how much vocab you know, but entirely on if you can recognize what type of words goes in the sentence; this is used already, but they can make this harder while making the words easier. For example, the hard questions could use double or triple negatives along with other sentence twisters. Even if you do read a lot of books, it won't completely help you on the hardest of the vocab questions.</p>

<p>Well, I for one am very glad for the sentence completions. This is one reason I like the SAT so much better than the ACT. I learned just about all of the "SAT words" over the past few years, and now I NEVER get sentence completions wrong. I hope they don't ever change the sentence completions.</p>

<p>Besides, a large vocabulary is an extremly important tool in life and your career.</p>
