You should first use the chart to determine your converted score for each section. Suppose
that you got 30 correct in the first section, 28 correct in the second section, and 43 correct in
the third section. The 30 correct in the first section means a converted score of 51. The 28
correct in the second section means a converted score of 52. The 43 correct in the third
section means a converted score of 58. (see the chart below.)

Next, you should determine your overall score in the following way :
1. Add the three converted scores together.
51+ 52 + 58 = 161
2. Divide the sum by 3.
161 / 3 = 53.7
3. The multiple by 10.
53.7 x 10 = 537
The overall TOEFL score in this example is 537
LISTENING COMPREHENSION
The following language skills will help you to implement these strategies
and procedures with the sort dialogues on both the paper TOEFL test and
the computer TOEFL test.
STRATEGIES
____________________________________________________
SKILL 1 : FOCUS ON THE LAST LINE
The short dialogues involve conversations between two people, each
followed by ques-tion. It is important to understand that the answer to this
type of question is most often (but not always!) found in the last line of
the conversation.
Example from the Paper and Computer TOEFL Test
On the recording, you hear:
(man)
Billy really made a big mistake this time.
(woman) Yes, he forgot to turn in his research paper.
(narator) What does the woman say about Billy?
In your test book or on the computer screen, you read:
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
It was the first time he made a mistake.

He forgot to write his paper.
He turned in the paper in the wrong place.
He didnt remember to submit his assignment.
The last line of this dialogue indicates that Billy forgot to turn in his research
paper, and this means that he didnt remember to submit it. The best answer is
therefore answer (D).
The following chart outlines the most important strategy for the short
dialogues:
STRATEGY #1: FOCUS ON THE LAST LINE
1. The last line of the dialogue probably contains the answer to the question.
2. Listen to the first line of the dialogue. If you understand it, thats good. If you dont
understand it, dont worry because it probably does not contain the answer.
3. Be ready to focus on the last line of the dialogue because it probably contains the
answer. Repeat the last line in your mind as you read through the answer in the
text.
EXERCISE 1 : In this exercise, you should focus on the last line of the dialogue,
read the question, and then choose the best answer to that question. Remember
that you can probably answer the question easily with only the last line.
1. (man)
romance,
can you tell me if todays

matinee is a comedy,
or western?
(woman)
i have no
idea
(narrator) What does the woman
mean?
2. (woman) Was anyone at home at
Barbs house when you
went there to deliver the

that I got the job.
(narrator) What does the man
suggest?
(A) She has strong ideas about movies.

(B) She prefers comedies over western
and romances.
(C) She doesnt like todays matinee.
(D) She does not know.
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)

interview
(B)
He thinks hell be recomended
for a high-level job.
(C)
The interview was apparently
quite unsuccesful.
(D) He had an excellent interview.
TOEFL EXERCISE 1: In this exercise, listen carefully to each short dialogue
and question on the recording and then choose the best answer to the question.
You should focus carefully on the last line.
Now begin the recording at toefl exercise 1.

47. (D) Hes not sure if theres

Skill 2: CHOOSE ANSWER WITH SYNONYMS
52.
53.
Often the correct answer ina short dialogue is an answer that
contains synonyms (words with similiar meanings but different
sounds) for key words in the conversation.
54.
55.
56. Example from the Paper and Computer TOEFL Test
57.
58. On the recording, you hear:
59.
(woman)
Why is Barbara feelings so happy?
60.
(man) She just started working in a real estate agency.
61.
(narator)
What does the man say about Barbara?
62.
63. In your test book or on the computer screen, you read:
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
64.
65.
She
She
She
She
always liked her work in real estate.

began a new job.
just bought some real estate.
bought a real estate agency.
66.
In this dialogue, the key word started means began, and the
key word working refers to job. The best answer to this question is
therefore answer (B).
67.
The following chart outlines a very important strategy
for short dialogues:
68.
69.STRATEGY #2: CHOOSE ANSWER WITH SYNONYMS
1. As you listen to the last line of the dialogue, focus on key words in that line.
2. If you see any synonyms for key words in a particular answer, then you have
probably found the correct answer.
70.
71.
EXERCISE 2: In this exercise, underline key words in the last
line of each short dialogue. Then underline synonyms for these key
words in the answer, and choose the best answer to each question.
Remember that the best answer is probably the answer that
contains synonyms for key words in the last line of the dialogue.

55.
Skill 3: AVOID SIMILIAR SOUNDS
56.
57.
Often the incoreect answers in the short dialogues are
answer that contain words with similiar sounds but very
different meanings from what you hear on the recording. You
should definitely avoid these answer.
58.
59.
60. Example from the Paper and Computer TOEFL Test
61.
62. On the recording, you hear:
63.
(man) Why couldnt Mark come with us?
64.
(woman)
He was searching for a new apartment.
65.
(narator)
What does the woman say about Mark?
66.
67. In your test book or on the computer screen, you read:
(A)
(B)
(C)
(D)
He was in the department office.

He was looking for a place to live.
He was working on his research project.
He had an appointment at church.
68.
69.
70.
The key words in the last line of the dialogue are
searching and apartment. In answer (C) and (D), the words
research and church sound like search, so these answers are
incorrect. In answers (A) and (D), the words department and
appointment sound like appartment, so these answers are
incorrect. The best answer is therefore answer (B).
71.
The following chart outlines a very important
strategy for the short dialogues:
72.
73.STRATEGY #3: AVOID SIMILIAR SOUNDS
1. Identify key words in the last line of the dialogue.
2. Identify words in the answers that contain similiar sounds, and do not choose these
answers.
74.
75. NOTE : In Appendix A there are drills to practice distinguishing
similiar sounds. You may want to complete these practise drills
before trying the following exercises.
76.
77.
78.
EXERCISE 3: In this exercise, underline key words in
the last line of each short dialogue. Then underline words
with sounds similiar to these key words in the answers, and
choose the best answer to each question. Remember that the
best answer is probably the answer that does not contain
words with sounds that similiar to the sounds of the key
words in the last line of the dialogue.

60. SKILL 4: ANTICIPATE THE TOPICS

61.
62.It is very helpful to you for overall comprehension if you know what topics
to expect in the long conversations. You should therefore try to anticipate
the topics you will be hearing. For examples, are the conversations about
some aspect of school life, or some type of social issue, or a trip someone
is planning? A helpful strategy is therefore to look briefly at the answers in
the test book, before you actually hear the conversations on the recording,
and try to determine the topics of the conversations that you will hear.
63.
64.
65. EXERCISE 18: Look at the answers to the five quetions together, and try
to anticipate the topic of the conversation for those five questions. (Of
course, you cannot always determine exactly what the topics is, but you

Skill 5: LISTEN FOR ANSWER IN ORDER
103.
104.There are two possible methods to use while you listen to a long
conversation:
105.
You can just listen to the conversation (and ignore the answer).
You can follow along with the answer while you listen.
106.
107.Some students prefer to just listen to the conversation while it is being
spoken, and if that method works well for you, then that is what you
should do. Other students find that they can answer more questions
correctly if they read along with the answers while the conversation is
being spoken. Because the detail questions are answered in order, it is
possible to read along while you listen to the conversation on the
recording.

a checking account. Therefore, you can anticipate that the best answer to the first
question is (A).
149.
When you read the answers to the second quesions, you can anticipate that
the question is going to ask What thing . . .? In the conversation, the man asks her to
fill out a form and show identification, so as you are listening you can anticipate that
the correct answer to the second question is either (A) or (C). When you hear the
question, you can determine that the best answer is answer (C).

80.The following skills will help you to implement these procedures in the
long talks on the paper TOEFL test.
81.
82. Skill 6: ANTICIPATE THE TOPICS
83.
84.It is very helpful to you understand overall comprehension if you know
what topics to expect in the long talks. You should therefore try to
anticipate the topics you will be hearing (as you did with the long
conversations). For examples, are the talks about American history, or
literature, or some aspect of school life. A helpful strategy is therefore to
look briefly at the answers in the test book, before you actually hear the
talks on the recording, and try to determine the topics of the talks that you
will hear.
85.
86.
87. EXERCISE 6: Look at the answers to the five quetions together, and try
to anticipate the topic of the talk for those five questions. (Of course, you
cannot always determine exactly what the topics is, but you often can get
a general idea.) questions I through 5 have been answered for you.

914. 50 QUESTIONS 55 MINUTES

915. Directions : In this section you will read several
passages. Eachone is followed by a number of questions
bout it. For question 1-50, you are to choose the one best
answer, (A), (B), (C), and (D), to each question. Then on
your answer sheet, find the number of the question and fill
in the space that corresponds to the letter of the answer
you have chosen.
916.
917. Question 1-10
918.
Precipitation, commonly referred to as rainfall, is a measure
of the quantity of water in the form of either rain, hail, or snow which
reaches the ground. The average annual precipitation over the whole of
the United States is thirty-six inches. It should be understood however,
(5) that a foot of snow is not equal to a foot of precipitation. A general formula
for computing the precipitation of snowfall is that ten inches of snow is
equal to one inch of precipitation. In New York States, for example, twenty
inches of snow in one year would be recorded as only two inches of
precipitation. Forty inches of rain would be recorded as forty inches of
precipitation. The total annual precipitation would be recorded as forty(10) two inches.
919.
The amount of precipitation is a combined result of several
factors, including location, altitude, proximity to the sea, and the direction
of prevailinng winds. Most of the precipitation in the United States is
brought originally by prevailing winds from the Pasific Ocean, the Gulf of
Mexico, the Atlantic Ocean, and the Great Lakes. Because these prevailing
winds generally come from the west, the pasific coast receives more
(15)
annual precipitation than the Atlantic Coast. Along the Pasific Coat itself,
however, altitude causes some diversity in rainfall. The mountain ranges of
the United States, especially the Rocky Mountains Range and the
Appalachian Mountain Range, influence the amount ofprecipitation in their
areas. East of the Rocky Mountains, the annual precipitation decreases
(20) substantially from that west of the Rocky Mountains. The precipitation
north of the Appalachian Mountains is about 40 percent less than that
south of the Appalachian Mountains.

appropriate for freshmen or sophomores, whereas courses with the
(5) number 300 or 400 often have prerequisites and are open tojuniors and
seniors only. Courses with the numbers 800 above are open only to
graduate students. Certain graduate courses, generally those devoted to
introductory material, are numbered 400 for undergraduates students
who qualify to take them and 600 for graduate students. Courses designed
(10) for students seeking a professional degree carry a 500 number for
undergraduare students and a 700 number for graduate students. Courses
numbered 99 or below are special interest courses that do not carry
academic credit. If students elect to take a special interest course, it will
not count toward the number ofhours needed tocomplete graduation
requirements.

A full-time undergraduates student is expected to take
courses that total twelve to eighteen credit hours. A full time graduate
student is expected to take courses that total ten to sixteen credit hours.
(15) Students holding assisyantships are expected to enroll for proportionately
fewer hours, a part time graduate student may register for a minimum of
three credit hours. An overload, this is, more than maximum number of
hours, may be taken with the approval of an academic advisor. To register
for an overload, student must submit the appropriate approval form when
registering. Overloads above 24 hours willnot be approved underany
circumstances.

62.
63.
The temperature of the Sun is over 5,000 degree fahrenheit
at the surface, but it rises to perhaps more than 16 million degrees at the
center. The sun is so much hotter than the earth that matter can exist only
as a gas, except at the core. In the core of the Sun, the pressures are so
(5) great against the gases that, despite the high temperature, there may be a
small solid core. However, no one really knows, since the center of the Sun
can never be directly observed.
64.
Solar astronomers doknowthat the Sun is divided into five
layers orzones. Starting at the outside and goinng down into the Sun, the
zones are the corona, chromospheres, photosphere,convection zone, and
finally the core. The first three zones are regarded as the Suns
(10) Atmosphere. But since the Sun has no solid surface, it is hard to tell where
the atmosphere ends and the main body of the Sun begins.
65.
The Suns outermost layer begins about 10,000 miles above
the visible surface and goes ouward for millions of miles. This is the only
part of the Sun that can be seen during an eclipse such as the one in
February 1979. At any other time,the corona can be seen only when special
(15) instruments are used on cameras and telescopes to shut out the glare of
the Suns rays.
66.
The corona is a brilliant, pearly white, filmy light, about as
bright as the full moon. Its beautiful rays are a sensational sight during an
eclipse. The coronas rays flash out in a brilliant fan that has wispy spike
like rays near the Suns north and south poles. The corona is thickest at
the Suns equator.
67.
The corona rays are made up of gases streaming outward at
(20) tremendous speeds and reaching a temperature of more than 2 million
degree Fahrenheit. The rays of gas thin out as they reach the spacearound
the planets. By the time the Sunss corona rays reach the Earth, they are
weak and invisible.

90.
91.
The acacia is a genus of trees and shrubs of the Mimosa
family. Although nearly five hundred species of Acacia have been
identified, only about a dozen of the three hundred Australian varieties
grow well in the southern United States, and these, only three are
(5) flowering. The Bailey Acacia has fernlike silver leaves and small, fragrant
flowers arranged in rounded clusters. The Silver Wattle, although very
similar to the Bailey Acacia, grows twice as high. The Sydney Golden
Wattle is squat and bushy with broad, flat leaves and sharp spine twigs.
Named for its bright, yellow flowers, the Golden Wattle is the most showy
(10) and fragrant of the Acacia. Another variety, the
Black Acacia or
Blackwood, has dark green leaves and obtrusive blossoms. Besides being a
popular tree for ornamental purposes, the Black Acacia is valuable for its
dark wood, which is used in making cabinets and furniture, including
highly prized pianos.
92.
The Acacias unusual custom of blossoming in February has
been commonly attributed to its Australian origins. In the Southern
Hemisphere, of course, the seasons are reversed, and February, which is
wintertime in the United States, is summertoomei Australia. Actually,
however, the pale, yellow blossoms appear in August in Australia.

Wheather growing in the Northern or Southern Hemisphere, the Acacia

Question 41-50
115.
116.
In 1626, Peter Minuit. Governor of dutch settlements in
North America known as New Amsterdam, negotiated with Canaries Indian
chiefs for the purchase of Manhattan Island for merchandise valued at
sixty guilders or about $24.12. He purchased the island for the Dutch West
(5) India Company.
117.
The next year, Fort Amsterdam was built by the company at
the extreme southern tip of the island. Because attempts to encourage
Dutch immigration were not immediately successful, offers, generous by
the standars of the area, were extended throughout Europe. Consequently,
the settlement became the most heterogeneous of the North American
62
colonies. By 1637, the fort had expanded into the village of New
Amsterdam, and other small communities had grown up around it,
including New Harlem and Stuyvesants Bourwery, and New Amsterdam
began to prosper, developing characteristics of religious and linguistic
tolerance unusual for the times. By 1643, it was reported that eighteen
(10) different language were heard in New Amsterdam alone.
118.
Among the multilingual settlers was a large group of English
colonies from Connecticut and Massachusetts who supported the English
(15) Kings claim to all of New Netherlands set out charter that gave territory
to his brother James, the Duke of
York. In 1664, when the English sent
a formidable fleet of warship into the New Amsterdam harbor, Dutch
governor Peter Stuyvesant surrended without resistance.
119.
When the English acquired the island, the village of New
Amsterdam was renamed New York in honor of Duke. By the onset of the
(20) revolution, New York City was already a bustling commercial center. After
the war, it was selected as the first capital of the United states. Although
the government was eventually moved, first to Philadelphia and then to
Washington D.C., New Yorl City has remained the unofficial commercial
capital.
120.
During the 1690s, New Yorl became a heaven for pirates
who conspired with leading merchants to exchange many agricultural
products for English manufactured goods. In addition, trade with the West
Indies prospered. Three centuries afterhis initial trade with the indians,
Minuits tiny investment was worth more than than seven billion dollars.
121.
