Random words are good for speed, but a paragraph feels like real typing. You read ahead, you hit punctuation and capital letters, and the test ends when you reach the last word.
You get one paragraph of about 25 to 40 words. The clock starts with your first key and stops when you type the last word. Your speed is words per minute, counted the same way as in the other tests.
A paragraph reads like something a person wrote, so your eyes can move ahead of your fingers more easily. Many people score a little higher than on a list of random words. It is also the nearest thing to a typing exam at school or at work.
