How the test works

Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

In Spain, marriages can be of two types: religious or civil. Also, there are other legal statuses such as the de facto couple to legalise couple relationships. As for families, these can be single-parent, that is, when there is only one parent, or large families: when a couple has three or more children.
