I’m a sucker for online quizzes, better for you than playing solitaire.
In the Guardian’s Teacher Network section they have an online Grammar test. Take it HERE, and see how you perform. I scored 13 out of 14, and was annoyed with myself for not identifying the correct prepositional phrase in Q13. Hmm, careless.

Not convinced by the so-called conditional sentence. The classic conditional is ‘if x then y’. I reckon their example is actually a declarative statement – it’s what he thought, no ifs, buts or maybes, even though he was uncertain. And it’s a long time since I read Fowler’s but I think Fowler concludes that there’s no such thing in English as a gerund or a gerundive. Bad news for Latin lovers. (Not sure what Fowler says about sentences beginning with ‘and’!)
