When the new TOEIC test was first administered in May 2006, many testtakers were worried that they might never get a high score due to a substantial change in the test format, and rushed to buy textbooks which claimed to prepare themselves for the new test Unluckily, these books often do not live up to their claims, leaving many testtakers a feeling of frustration and further anxiety.

New Real TOEIC is different!

New TOEIC

•• Listening Comprehension

As TOEIC stands for Test of English for International Communication, there is the need to assess proficiency by aligning questions with everyday language scenarios that happen in today’s workplace Tasks in the new TOEIC test are more authentic and there is a wider range of English accents compared to the previous version.

How is the new TOEIC different?

The new Listening Section has four major changes:

• a decrease in the number of photograph questions in Part 1 (from 20 to 10)

• the use of both recorded and written questions in Part 3 (conversations) and Part 4 (short talks) In Part 3, there are more conversational exchanges, from A-B-A to A-B-A-B.

• an increase in number of questions that follow each talk in Part 4 (3 questions instead of 2-3 in the earlier version)

• the use of different English accents, as spoken in the U.S., Great Britain, Canada and Australia

The new Reading Section has three major changes:

• the elimination of Part 6 (error recognition questions)

• the addition of text completion questions (Part 6)

• the inclusion of reading sets of questions based on two interrelated passages (Part 7)

Part 2

- 30 questions (Q ll-4 0 )

- There is a 1-minute Direction for Part 2.

- There is a 5-second pause between every two questions.

- Approximately 10-15 questions begin with WH- (what, when, who, whose, why, how, which, where).

- Since the question format remains much the same throughout Part 2, testtakers tend to lose concentration starting from questions 35-40 It is essential that you practice answering all these 30 questions in one session without breaking them in several chunks.

- If you are not sure of any one question, just skip it and concentrate on the next one.

- You should mark your answers directly on the Answer Sheet while you are listening to the questions.

Trang 13

Part 3

- 30 questions based on 10 conversations (Q.41-70)

- There is a 30-second Direction for Part 3.

Each conversation is followed by 3 questions read to testtakers.

- After a question is read, testtakers have 8 seconds to answer it before they hear the next one.

- The conversations in Part 3 are longer than those in the old TOEIC as they have the format A-B-A-B instead of the shorter one A-B-A.

- For Part 3, it is wiser for you to mark your answers on the question booklet and transfer them to the Answer Sheet at the end of the Listening Section.

Part 4

- 30 questions based on 10 listening passages (Q.71-100)

- There is a 28-second Direction for Part 4.

- Each listening passage is about 100-120 words, and is read in 25-35 seconds.

- For Part 4, it is wiser for you to mark your answers on the question booklet and transfer them to the Answer Sheet at the end of the Listening Section.

Trang 14

- The length of each question is about 12-20 words.

- If you cannot answer a certain question in 30 seconds, mark it with an asterisk and proceed to the next one, then review it later when transferring your answers to the Answer Sheet.

Part 6

- 12 questions (Q 141-152) in 4 reading passages (3 questions for each passage)

- Although the questions are embedded in the reading passages, they are similar in nature

to those in Part 5 and should not create any special problems to testtakers once they are used to dealing with questions in the previous part.

- As with Part 5, you should mark your answers on the question booklet and transfer them

to the Answer Sheet about 5 minutes before the end of the Reading Section.

Part 7

- 48 questions (Single Passages: Q.153-180; Double Passages: Q.181-200)

- Usually there are 9 single passages and 4 double passages (i.e 8 reading components).

- You should try to answer all the questions of Parts 5 and 6 in 25 m inutes, leaving at least

45 minutes to deal with Part 7.
