I found this on NPR. It’s a site from Indiana (go, Hoosiers!). Of course it is. I can still tell what week of summer it is by how high the corn is, how the soybeans look, and how busy the farmers are.
Anyway, this is a vocabulary quiz. Just like the SAT or GRE. For each word you get right, the computer adjusts the level of difficulty and keeps overall track of how you are doing. I know this sounds like a NIGHTMARE to most folks, but to a dork like me it’s manna.
For each word you get correct, the site will donate 10 grains of rice to hungry people. It’s terrific. It’s addictive. It’s helping the world by doing nothing but improving your vocabulary.
