You didn't do great but didn't shame yourself either. You know some of the common sayings in proper English grammar. That said, you still got less than 50% correctly which means you need to practice your English grammar a bit more!
You probably read quite a bit, and if not perhaps love the English language, because your score is quite good! You have identified most of the phrases correctly, and that means you probably do NOT need to practice your grammar. However, have a look at the answers to see where we lead you astray.
