description This paper presents results obtained within the Research Project (J014) Estructuras tempranas y tardías en el desarrollo del lenguaje, directed by Adriana Alvarez and subsidised by Universidad Nacional del Comahue.<br /><br /><em>Abstract</em><br />The Swansea Levels Test was administered to 33 university EFL students and 12 primary school learners of English. We also analysed their performance in a comprehension task and an elicited production task involving passive constructions and unaccusative verbs. Some subjects scored high in the vocabulary test and in the tasks, while others revealed an inverse relation between vocabulary knowledge and task performance. This paper presents the pros and cons of this vocabulary test to predict second language proficiency.
