English Skills Evaluation (ES Evaluation) is iTalk's new English Evaluation system. This test will measure your knowledge of the English language and will give you a good idea of your current Reading, Listening and Speaking skill levels. The test is divided into three sections: Reading, Listening, and Speaking.
Once you begin the test, you will be given 20 minutes to complete all of the sections. The result can be used to identify your areas of strength or weakness and help you pinpoint areas needing further improvement.
After the test, you will be given a score for each section and a total score by your my page. And you can study and ask your teacher the questions what you couldn't answer correctly.
※第二、第四金曜日に行いますが、都合が悪い方はお申し出いただき別の日に受講することも可能です。
※LocationがHome（自宅からのレッスン提供）の講師でも受講することも可能です。
※テストは初級、中級、上級3つのレベルに分かれております。採点と評価はそれぞれのレベル内の評価となります。例えばビギナーレベルで満点を取り、中級クラスに移行しますとまた低い評価から始まりますのであらかじめご了承お願いします。
※同一月内にレベル変更して別のレベルのテストを受講しますと月単位の平均値が算定できなくなり月間グラフの表示不可となります。

Catching a cold
Many people catch a cold in the springtime and/ or fall. It makes us wonder... if scientists can send a man to the moon, why can't they find a cure for the common cold. The answer is easy. There are literally hundreds of kinds cold viruses out there. You never know which one you will get, so there isn't a cure for each one.
When a virus attacks your body, your body works hard to get rid of it. Blood rushes to your nose and brings congestion with it. You feel terrible because you can't breathe well, but your body is actually "eating" the virus. Your temperature rises and you get a fever, but the heat of your body is killing the virus. You also have a runny nose to stop the virus from getting to your cells. You may feel miserable, but actually your wonderful body is doing everything it can to kill the cold.
Different people have different remedies for colds. In the United States and some other countries,for example, people might eat chicken soup to feel better. Some people take hot baths and drink warm liquids. Other people take medicines to stop the fever, congestion, and runny nose. There is one interesting thing to note- some scientists say taking medicines when you have a cold is actually bad for you. The virus stays in you longer because your body doesn't have a way to fight it and kill it. Bodies can do an amazing job on their own. There is a joke, however, on taking medicine when you have a cold. It goes like this: If takes about 1 week to get over a cold if you don't take medicine, but only 7 days to get over a cold if you take medicine.
