• Exam is the usual word for a written, spoken or practical test at school or college, especially an important one that you need to do in order to get a qualification. Examination is a very formal word. A test is something that students might be given in addition to, or sometimes instead of, regular exams, to see how much they have learned. A very short informal test is called a quiz in NAmE. Quiz in both NAmE and BrE also means a contest in which people try to answer questions. * exam 为常用词，指学校的笔试、口试或操作考试，尤指为取得学历必须参加的重要考试。examination 是很正式的词。test 指对学生所学知识的测验，是正规考试的补充，有时也取代正规考试。在美式英语中非正规的小测验称为 quiz；在美式英语和英式英语中 quiz 亦指问答竞赛：◆a trivia quiz 难题问答竞赛◆a quiz show 问答竞赛节目
