What it is: You get the start of a sentence and finish it with words from the text. There is no list.
The instruction on the paper: Finden Sie das passende Satzende. Verwenden Sie dazu Wörter aus Zeilen 20–26. → Find the right sentence ending. Use words from lines 20–26.
Die Kletterhalle: Die neue Kletterhalle hat jeden Tag von zehn bis zweiundzwanzig Uhr geöffnet. Anfänger dürfen nur mit einem Trainer klettern. Schuhe und Gurte kann man an der Kasse ausleihen. Kinder unter zwölf Jahren brauchen die Erlaubnis ihrer Eltern. Am Wochenende ist die Halle oft voll, deshalb sollte man vorher online reservieren.

Example question

Finden Sie das passende Satzende. Verwenden Sie dazu Wörter aus Absatz 1.

Wenn man keine Kletterschuhe hat, …
