FOREWORD This textbook is compiled to meet the needs of students taking a TOEIC course which forms part of the curricula at Lac Hong University. In selecting the materials for this textbook, the compilers set before themselves a modest goal.

We are aware of the deficiencies that remain in the textbook in spite of the efforts to make it an efficient aid in the study of this TOEIC course. Needless to say, the compilers will be greatly indebted for all criticism and corrections sent to Lac Hong TOEIC Center via the following e-mail address toeiclachong@yahoo.com . 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Page TEACHING PLAN 3 END-OF-TERM TEST FORMAT AND COURSE RESULT 4 UNIT 1 5 UNIT 2 10 UNIT 3 15 UNIT 4 20 UNIT 5 25 UNIT 6 30 UNIT 7 35 UNIT 8 40 UNIT 9 45 UNIT 10 50 UNIT 11 54 UNIT 12 59 UNIT 13 63 UNIT 14 67 LANGUAGE FOCUS 72 Comparisons 72 Nouns 75 Pronouns 78 Verb Tenses 83 Modal Auxiliaries and Similar Expressions 94 Active and Passive 99 Gerunds and Infinitives 101 Conditional Sentences 105 Questions and Answers 108 REFERENCES 110 3 TEACHING PLAN TOEIC PREPARATION COURSE TERM 3 (15 weeks x 4 periods = 60 periods) WEEK UNIT LISTENING INCOMPLETE SENTENCES ( VOCABULARY & GRAMMAR) INCOMPLETE TEXTS READING COMPREHENSION SPEAKING PART E 1 UNIT 1 PART A PART B PART C PART D TOPIC 1.1 2 UNIT 2 PART A PART B PART C PART D TOPIC 1.2 3 UNIT 3 PART A PART B PART C PART D TOPIC 1.3 4 UNIT 4 PART A PART B PART C PART D TOPIC 1.4 5 UNIT 5 PART A PART B PART C PART D TOPIC 1.5 6 UNIT 6 PART A PART B PART C PART D TOPIC 1.6 7 UNIT 7 PART A PART B PART C PART D TOPIC 1.7 8 UNIT 8 PART A PART B PART C PART D Speaking 9 UNIT 9 PART A PART B PART C PART D Speaking 10 UNIT 10 PART A PART B PART C PART D Speaking 11 UNIT 11 PART A PART B PART C PART D Speaking 12 UNIT 12 PART A PART B PART C PART D Speaking 13 UNIT 13 PART A PART B PART C PART D - Class attendance (10%) and 30% marks announced - Submission of score- sheets with students’ signatures to LH TOEIC Center 14 UNIT 14 PART A PART B PART C PART D 15 REVIEW 4 END-OF-TERM TEST FORMAT At the end of the term, the students will take a multiple choice test.
