introducing contents in English with alongside its respective Italian translation. The purpose
of this choice, on the part of the authors, aims to give the reader – right from the start – the

vocabulary and its morphosyntactic constructs.
A

thors, in fact, committed themselves to developing the examination programs in the most
pertinent way possible to the requests of the Administrations and to present it in the simplest
form in order for each potential candidate to comprehend.
