Which activity shows your level of English?

I think the news, because we have to read them and make a summary and it comports to understand the new and take the conclusions for writte good the summary.
But not the oral presentation, because with the nervous it's impossible to show right the own level of english. I think that writtings are activities for show it because you think, you make an essay and after you write something. This term we haven't done a lot of things, we have only centrated all classes with the grammar of the exams and in the Aula Idiomes we have spent the time with that and we haven't done special activities, only the first day we were in computer and an other day doing a summary of a new. This is all in this question.
