Academic word list In this section you can do practice tests for all groups of the academic word

list. The Academic Word List (AWL) was developed by Averil Co head at the !chool of Linguistics and Applied Language !tudies at "ictoria #niversity of Wellington$ %ew &ealand. The list contains '() word families which were selected because they appear with great fre*uency in a broad range of academic te ts. The list does not include words that are in the most fre*uent +))) words of ,nglish (the -eneral !ervice List)$ thus ma.ing it specific to academic conte ts. The AWL was primarily made so that it could be used by teachers as part of a programme preparing learners for tertiary level study or used by students wor.ing alone to learn the words most needed to study at colleges and universities. The '() words are divided into /) -roups. The -roups are ordered such that the words in the first -roup are the most fre*uent words and those in the last -roup are the least fre*uent. -roup / 0ractice test sector 1 available 1 financial 1 process 1 individual 1 specific 1 principle 1 estimate 1 variables 1 method 1 data 1 research 1 contract 1 environment 1 e port 1 source 1 assessment 1 policy 1 identified 1 create 1 derived 1 factors 1 procedure 1 definition 1 assume 1 theory 1 benefit 1 evidence 1 established 1 authority 1 ma2or 1 issues 1 labour 1 occur 1 economic 1 involved 1 percent 1 interpretation 1 consistent 1 income 1 structure 1 legal 1 concept 1 formula 1 section 1 re*uired 1 constitutional 1 analysis 1 distribution 1 function 1 area 1 approach 1 role 1 legislation 1 indicate 1 response 1 period 1 conte t 1 significant 1 similar 1 -roup + 0ractice test community 1 resident 1 range 1 construction 1 strategies 1 elements 1 previous 1 conclusion 1 security 1 aspects 1 ac*uisition 1 features 1 te t 1 commission 1 regulations 1 computer 1 items 1 consumer 1 achieve 1 final 1 positive 1 evaluation 1 assistance 1 normal 1 relevant 1 distinction 1 region 1 traditional 1 impact 1 conse*uences 1 chapter 1 e*uation 1 appropriate 1 resources 1 participation 1 survey 1 potential 1 cultural 1 transfer 1 select 1 credit 1 affect 1 categories 1 perceived 1 sought 1 focus 1 purchase 1 in2ury 1 site 1 2ournal 1 primary 1 comple 1 institute 1 investment 1 administration 1 maintenance 1 design 1 obtained 1 restricted 1 conduct 1 -roup 3 0ractice test comments 1 convention 1 published 1 framewor. 1 implies 1 negative 1 dominant 1 illustrated 1 outcomes 1 constant 1 shift 1 deduction 1 ensure 1 specified 1 2ustification 1 funds 1 reliance 1 physical 1 partnership 1 location 1 lin. 1 coordination 1 alternative 1 initial 1 validity 1 tas. 1 techni*ues 1 e cluded 1 consent 1 proportion 1 demonstrate 1 reaction 1 criteria 1 minorities 1 technology 1 philosophy 1 removed 1 se 1 compensation 1 se*uence 1 corresponding 1 ma imum 1 circumstances 1 instance 1 considerable 1 sufficient 1 corporate 1 interaction 1 contribution 1 immigration 1 component 1 constraints 1 technical 1 emphasis 1 scheme 1 layer 1 volume 1 document 1 registered 1 core 1 -roup 4 0ractice test overall 1 emerged 1 regime 1 implementation 1 pro2ect 1 hence 1 occupational 1 internal 1 goals 1 retained 1 sum 1 integration 1 mechanism 1 parallel 1 imposed 1 despite 1 2ob 1 parameters 1 appro imate 1 label 1 concentration 1 principal 1 series 1 predicted 1 summary 1 attitudes 1 underta.en 1 cycle 1 communication 1 ethnic 1 hypothesis 1 professional 1 status 1 conference 1 attributed 1 annual 1 obvious 1 error 1 implications 1 apparent 1 commitment 1 subse*uent 1 debate 1 dimensions 1 promote 1 statistics 1 option 1 domestic 1 output 1 access 1 code 1 investigation 1 phase 1 prior 1 granted 1 stress 1 civil 1 contrast 1 resolution 1 ade*uate -roup '
