Lời mở đầu
Các bạn thân mến,
Chắc hẳn các bạn đều biết rằng, chứng chỉ TOEIC hiện nay được coi là một trong những chiếc
chìa khóa thần kỳ giúp mở ra những cánh cổng sáng lạng trong học tập và công việc. Nhưng
muốn phát triển các kỹ năng TOEIC một cách toàn diện nhất và đạt được mức điểm mong
muốn, đảm bảo đầy đủ các yếu tố về nền tảng ngữ pháp, từ vựng và kỹ năng là vô cùng quan
trọng.
Trải qua nhiều năm kinh nghiệm trong mảng TOEIC đội ngũ sử giả Ms Hoa đã miệt mài nghiên
cứu và xuất bản ấn phẩm “1000 từ vựng hay xuất hiện trong TOEIC”, với mục đích giúp các
bạn chuẩn bị hành trang từ vựng tốt nhất cho chứng chỉ TOEIC.
Cuốn “1000 từ vựng hay xuất hiện trong TOEIC” có gì đặc biệt?
Như các bạn biết, TOEIC phục vụ cho công việc rất nhiều, bởi tần suất xuất hiện từ vựng
chuyên ngành, đặc biệt là kinh tế, tài chính là vô cùng thường xuyên. Do vậy, cuốn “1000 từ
vựng hay xuất hiện trong TOEIC” được ra đời dựa trên lối tư duy vừa là sách học chứng chỉ
TOEIC, vừa là sách học từ vựng. Tuy nhiên điểm đặc biệt nhất của cuốn sách này chính là
không chỉ học từ vựng mà còn học kỹ năng. Cụ thể bao gồm:
• Học từ vựng thông qua các bài nghe (Listening) theo từng Part của bài thi TOEIC.
• Học từ vựng thông qua các bài đọc (Reading) theo từng Part của bài thi TOEIC.
• Học từ vựng đầy đủ nhất, bao gồm từ bằng tiếng Anh, loại từ (danh từ, động từ, ..),
phiên âm, nghĩa tiếng Việt và ví dụ áp dụng từ vựng.
• Học từ vựng thông qua các bài tập luyện tập, thực hành, luyện nhớ sâu từ vựng.
Thông qua cuốn sách này, đội ngũ sứ giả của Anh ngữ Ms Hoa hi vọng rằng các bạn có thể
chuẩn bị cho bản thân hành trang vững chắc, tìm được phương pháp học hiệu quả nhất cho
kỳ thi TOEIC và đạt được mức điểm như mong đợi.
Chúc các bạn thành công!

HƯỚNG DẪN SỬ DỤNG
“1000 từ vựng TOEIC siêu tốc ẵm trọn 990 điểm” là cuốn sách tập trung chủ yếu vào
chủ điểm từ vựng thường xuyên xuất hiện xuyên suốt các Part xuyên suốt bài thi
TOEIC. Trong đó, với mỗi chủ đề từ vựng sẽ bao gồm 2 phần:
Phần nội dung: Bao gồm dịch nghĩa, phát âm từ vựng và cũng như cách từ dụng được
sử dụng trong 1 ví dụ cụ thể như thế nào.
Phần Check-up: bao gồm các dạng bài tập tương ứng với mỗi phần cụ thể trong đề
thi TOEIC, giúp các bạn nắm vững lại kiến thức sau mỗi chặng học.
Để có thể tận dụng hiệu quả nội dung mà sách đem lại, đội ngũ Anh Ngữ Ms Hoa
xin đưa ra 1 số lời khuyên cho các bạn:
1 Lặp lại từ vựng nhiều lần: để nhớ được 1 lượng kiến thức lớn không phải là điều dễ
dàng, vì vậy việc lặp đi lặp lại các từ vựng sẽ rất quan trọng giúp cho việc ghi nhớ trở nên
lâu hơn. Để chắc chắn hơn, các bạn có thể tự tạo cho riêng mình 1 sơ đồ tư duy với những
kiến thức thu nhận được từ sách. Việc vận dụng sơ đồ này chắc chắn sẽ giúp cho việc
học từ vựng của chúng ta thêm thú vị hơn.
2 Dùng và áp dụng ngay sau khi học: các bạn có thể tự tạo những ngữ cảnh cho riêng
mình dựa vào những từ vựng và ví dụ đã cho trong sách. Với cách áp dụng này, từ vựng
sẽ được lưu giữ lâu hơn, giúp chúng ta nhớ lâu hơn.
3 Thường xuyên luyện tập lại các bài tập có mỗi cuối mỗi chủ điểm từ vựng, vì những bài
tập này được thiết kế bám sát với 1 đề TOEIC trên thực tế. Ngoài ra, các bạn cũng có thể
mở rộng bằng cách làm quen với đề thi thật trong các cuốn ETS, Hacker TOEIC,… để
nâng cao trình độ bản thân.

Subject : Application for Promotion
I’m writing to ask you a few questions about the letters of recommendation that I need to submit
with my résumé. It has been only a year since I started working here at MCZ International and
unfortunately one of my two bosses, Mr. Donovan, has been working in the branch office in
Osaka for the upcoming international project with Yamamoto Industry.
I haven’t had a chance to work with him and he obviously doesn’t know much about my
performance and abilities. My other boss, Mr. Dellington, has agreed to write a letter of
recommendation.
Do I still have to submit one more letter to apply for the promotion? Or should I still ask Mr.
Donovan to write a letter of recommendation for me? Please let me know as soon as possible,
as it will take more than a week to get a letter from Mr. Donovan.

Question 6 – 9
A Closer Look at the Glaxo Global 1,000
Glaxo, the corporation that ranks the performance of companies in the U.K, is now evaluating
the top international companies round the world in what is called the Glaxo Global 1,000 group.
As part of the statistics and analyses made available on their website, www.glaxoratings.com,
they are taking a closer look to see what the secrets of the successes of these top organizations
are. They say that being big helps a company stay competitive in a global economy, but size
alone does not guarantee success.
In an attempt to better analyze the reasons for success, Glaxo looked at various statistics and
results of their multidimensional rating system that is based on sales, market value, profits
and assets. They then regrouped these 1,000 companies by industry and analyzed what was
happening to each of them in terms of profits earned, long- and short-term return on equity,
the dividends paid, sales growth and the market price of the company’s stock. They received
the assistance of one outside company in making growth forecasts and another company that
could audit accounting methods.
With the assistance of these firms, they crossed out corporations from their study that didn’t
meet the standards of accounting, management, or legal issues. Of the 1,000 companies,
fewer than 100 passed in all categories. One global high performer was the Japanese company
Nippon Telegraph & Telephone. This company showed a 49% growth in profits and a 46% total
return in the past year. The debt-to-total capital is only 12% and the growth forecast for the next
three to five years is expected to be 40%.
6. What is Glaxo?
A. A company that analyzes what makes a business successful
B. The parent company of a group of international businesses
C. A consulting company for better business performance
D. A company that predicts the earnings growth of major international companies
-------------------------------------------------------
7. Which category is NOT included in their rating system?
A. Sales
B. Profits
C. Assets
D. Market share
121
8. What is suggested about “1,000” in the article?
A. The factors considered for standards
B. The number of companies involved
C. The number of employees involved
D. The percent of growth expected
-------------------------------------------------------
9. Who assisted Glaxo in making its analysis?
A. A team of selected evaluation professionals
B. Two outside companies
C. Nippon Telegraph & Telephone
D. A team of accountants

Questions 7 through 10 refer to the following letter
October 7, 2018
ABC Corporation
Washington, D.C.
Dear all,
We advertised the position of Sales manager a week ago in the national newspaper. So
far we’ve had more than fifty applicants for the job. As you know, we’re offering a salary of
$2,000 a month. We would prefer to appoint someone with a few years’ experience in the field.
Remember that we stated in the advertisement that high academic qualifications are not so
necessary for a job like this. We need to stress that in this company all employees are treated
in the same way. All staffs are entitled to an annual share in the progress of the company,
and we believe that good working relations between managers and staff are essential. We’ve
selected ten candidates to be interviewed next week. The successful candidate will take up
his/her appointment from next month.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Best regards,
John Whitney

Question 7 through 11 refer to the following letter
and information
Dear Mr. Park,
Your colleague from the Florida School of Hospitality Administration, Stephanie Wayne,
recommended that I contact you. Stephanie is currently my client at Canyon Consulting. I help
her plan and devise strategies for her company to successfully launch new products.
As you may already know, the consulting business is quite stressful and I believe it is time for
me to take a vacation. I heard from Stephanie that you operate a renowned international travel
agency. Accordingly, I would be very pleased if you could help me plan an itinerary. I would
like to travel with 10 acquaintances of mine. We are planning to spend at least three weeks in
Asia, specifically in China, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines. Since one of my acquaintances
speaks Chinese and Korean, we just need a Japanese translator to accompany us on our stay
in Japan.
If you are interested in helping me out, please let me know at your earlier convenience.
Sincerely,
Goulet Wilson
Senior Consultant, Canyon Consulting

To promote the new product, however, the Health Factory is offering a special 30 percent
discount to anyone who purchases the new vitamins with their Health Factory card. For more

W: Lance, I went on a business trip last week. But I’ve never had to turn in an expense report
before. Could you help me out?
M: Sure. Were you at the human resources conference in San Francisco?
W: Yeah, I was there. Our boss told me to keep my meal and taxi receipts. How should I submit
them to the accounting department?
M: I’d suggest entering all the information into the report first. Then, scan each receipt and
attach them along with the report to an e-mail. Ah. and address it to Ms. Rivera. She handles
all businesses related to expenses.
2+3.
M: Pardon me. I’m supposed to participate in an orientation session organized by the human
resources department. It should’ve started at 1:30 P.M., but it’s 1:35 P.M. now, and no one has
arrived yet. That’s the main conference room over there, right?
W: Yes, it is. But, your meeting was moved to one of our other conference rooms.
M: Oh, thanks. I’m still settling in here since it’s my first day of work. Can you tell me where I
should go?
W: Sure. Head to the 14th floor. When you get off the elevator on that floor, go right. The
meeting is taking place in the space directly across from the break room.

W: Our competitor is launching a free delivery service next month. To stay competitive, we
should consider eliminating the fee to deliver furniture from our store to customers’ homes as
well. What do you think?
M: Hmm ... I’m concerned we’d need to buy additional delivery trucks. More customers would
use that service if there were no charge.
W: Well, we could just lease them instead. That would require less initial investment.
M: I like your suggestion. Do you believe we should prepare a cost projection report before we
discuss the idea with our supervisor?
W: Yes, let’s do that. Can I get my tablet back from you? I lent it to you yesterday, and it
contains the report template we’ll need.

M: Thank you for calling Jenkins Automotive Insurance. This is Bernard speaking. What can I
do for you?
W: My name is Candace Black, and I’m one of your insurance policy holders. I was just in an
accident outside Austin, and I would like my car to be towed to an auto repair shop. I don’t feel
comfortable driving it.
M: I completely understand, Ms. Black. A tow truck will be dispatched to your location
immediately. But first, I’d just like to confirm that you’ve notified the police about the situation.
W: Yes, I did. In fact, an officer is going to stay here with me until the tow truck arrives.
2.
W1: aren’t you both pleased that our agency has had more bookings lately?
W2: yes. It’s probably because we received an outstanding review on famous travel blogger
George Leeland’s Web page.
M: I agree and that reminds me… is everything ready for the tour we’re leading today?
W1: I just stocked the bus with water and snacks. And we’ve got the safety gear in case any
wild animals get too close to the vehicle.
M: Did you also bring those cans of bug spray we ordered, Fiona?
W2: Sorry, no. I’ll grab those from our office before we depart.
M: Good. I want to be prepared, since we had our largest group yesterday.

M: As you can see, the apartment we’re in comes with two bedrooms, a bathroom, living room,
and modern kitchen. Additionally, the Chicago skyline can be seen from the bedroom. Rent is
S1,900 a month. If you’re interested in filling out an application, I have one right here.
W: The apartment is very impressive. But I have another showing tomorrow, which I’d like to
follow through with before making a decision on where to live.
M: Of course. Just be aware that another potential tenant saw the unit this morning. Although
she has yet to submit an application, she assured me that she was going to do so soon.
Whoever turns one in first will be given priority.

W: Excuse me. Does your shop offer international shipping services? I’d like to get this teapot.
But I’m worried it might break in my suitcase on my flight back to Spain.
M: We can’t send items overseas, unfortunately. However, I can put the teapot in bubble wrap
for you. That should protect it while you’re traveling.
W: Wonderful . . . I love your store, by the way. I often travel to England and always stop in
here.
M: Thank you, would you like a card for our loyalty program then? You can earn points with
everything you buy.
2.
W: Mr. Wesley, here’s the completed inventory report you wanted. Ah . . . our shop is running
low on stationery goods, like notebooks and pens.
M: OK. It seems that the free delivery service we offered in September helped us sell more of
those items. Can you please order new stock by this weekend?
W: I was just about to do that. But I don’t know what happened to the list of suppliers that used
to be posted in the office.
M: Oh, sorry. It’s locked in the top desk drawer because it contains confidential information. Let
me grab a key for you to open that.

certain. My account is under the name David Harris.
W: just a minute… Well, it looks like you still have a novel by Brad Thompson called, uh,
Forgotten Time. It was released just last month.
M: oh, right. I forgot about that one. I’ll be visiting my family in Tacoma for a few days, so I’ll
drop it off next week
W: ok, but it’s due tomorrow, which means you’ll have to pay a late fee if you bring it back then.
I can renew it now, if you’d like
M: I’d appreciate that

W: Pardon me. Is there an ATM I can use other than the one by the bank’s entrance? Quite a
few people are in line to use that one.
M: Unfortunately, the only other one in the building is undergoing regular maintenance. It won’t
be accessible for about an hour.
W: Hmm . I’m in a bit of a rush. I need to withdraw cash before I fly to Vancouver for a business
trip.
M: Well, the teller at the end of the counter is helping another customer, but that shouldn’t take
too long. You can get cash from her once she’s available. I’m sure you’ll find that option faster
than using the machine.
W: Yeah, you’re probably right. Thanks for the suggestion.

W: Excuse me. I was here about an hour ago to open a new savings account. I think I accidentally
left my cell phone here. Has anyone found it?

W: It’s black and has a brown leather case.
M: Let me check our lost and found box . . . urn .. Sorry, I don’t see anything like that here. Are
you sure you didn’t misplace it elsewhere?
W: Well, I went to the library earlier this morning. I plan to check there next.
M: OK. And I’ll e-mail our staff and tell them to immediately report it if they find anything.

opening show on Saturday?
W: A few left, but they’re going fast. The leading actor was nominated for several awards last
year, so there is a lot of interest in the play.
M: Great, I’m glad some seats are still available. I’d like two that are next to each other and as
close to the stage as possible.
W: OK. And will you be paying with cash or credit card?
M: You can run this card. And I need a receipt, please.

W: Oh, I can’t believe Pasadena Gallery is going to display my artwork! Thank you so much.
M: We take great pride in supporting local artists, and I think your paintings will appeal to our
clients. Plus, if you go on to achieve success, we can say that your first exhibit was held at our
gallery.
W: Well, I’m very excited. By the way, have you decided on the dates yet?
M: A two-week show would probably work best. I’m thinking about holding it from August 27 to
September 10.
W: Ah . . . Could it start one week earlier—on August 20? I’m traveling to Berlin to participate
in a meet-and-greet event with other aspiring painters on September 8.

W: The Tan Film Festival is coming to BeIlville next month. I can’t believe it!

during that time and see every movie they’re going to show. I’m also going to get the signatures
of every star I know. Would you like to join me?

M: You must be Dana Royce. We’ve been expecting you! The recreation department is on the

W: I’ll go upstairs now. Thanks for your help!

W: Hello. I’d like to take your hotel’s airport shuttle bus tomorrow at 10 A.M. Can you arrange
that for me?
M: I’m sorry. That shuttle is already full. But, I can place you on ... urn ... the 11:30 A.M. bus
instead.
W: No, I’m afraid that would be too late as my flight is scheduled to depart at 1 o’clock. Could
I go at another time?
M: Let me see. Yes, we have a spot open at 8:30 A.M. You’ll be a bit early for your flight, but
there are no other times available. So, I think you’ll have to take that one.

schedule. The speaker texted to say cars are at a standstill on Highway 14.
W: OK. I’ll notify the audience about the change.
M: Meanwhile, regarding the keynote lecture, over 200 people signed up to hear it.
W: I’m not surprised. Food waste is an important issue, and Andrea Parker has written a best-
selling book on the topic.
M: Oh . . . I almost forgot. Sorry to say, but a valet parking driver called in sick. I know you’re
overseeing that team as well. Hopefully, you can make things work with one less person.

W: Tom, I want to let you know that I’m almost finished with the seating chart for Friday’s
banquet. I’m trying to seat all the winners near the front of the venue.
M: Yes, they should have easy access to the stage. And that reminds me. We got an e-mail
from the caterer for the event about 30 minutes ago. Have you read it yet?
W: No. I’ve been focused on getting this chart finished. Beeman Corporation expanded its
guest list this morning. Did the e-mail indicate that there will be some problems?
M: Everything’s fine as we decided on the menu a month ago. The message just mentioned
the number of vegetarian meals that will be provided.

W: Roger, we have to get the auditorium lobby ready before people arrive for tonight’s debut
performance of the play Going for Broke.
M: Right, I’ve got the actors’ photographs framed for display. What else is there to do?
W: Can you set up some tables where programs can be handed out?
M: Sure. There are a few in the basement. I’ll ask Jacob to help me carry them up here. His
shift starts in 15 minutes.
W: OK. And finally, we need a spot where fans can take photos with the cast after the show.

Following the guided tour, you will have lunch in the huge food court on the third floor of the

Good morning, everyone. I’m glad to see all of you here in the training session. As most of you
already know, we recently developed new computer programs in order to enhance our daily
operations. For warehouse workers, we’d like you to get used to our new inventory software
program. I’m sure this program will help you keep our stock well organized. For instance, when
our clients want to order something, you can check whether we have certain items in stock
immediately by using this new software program. If you work in Accounting, you need to get
your current accounting program upgraded. With this updated program, you can calculate the
gross sales per day more accurately and quickly. Let’s break up into groups of two and learn
how these software programs work.

I’m Mitch Bloomfield with this hour’s top story. Hurricane Harry is moving south-southeast
about 25 miles off the Florida Coast, and is predicted to strike southern Florida early this
evening. Winds are forecasted to be 75- to 100-miles an hour, with ocean swells up to 10
feet high. Florida authorities have ordered residents of coastal cities to evacuate their homes
for the next 24 hours, and two units of the National Guard have been dispatched to assist
elderly and disabled residents. Forecasters at the national weather center have labeled Harry
a level-2 hurricane and say it might decrease to level-1 by the time it reaches land. Residents
of islands in the Florida Keys have also begun evacuating in case Harry suddenly veers farther
south. This is Mitch Bloomfield reporting for WROJ. The next update will be at top of the hour,
or whenever news breaks on news radio WROJ, 920 a.m.

Good evening, listeners. This is Henry Gomez from KTN Radio traffic news. Looking at the
expressways, traffic is slowly starting to pick up as we head into the evening on Saturday.
Particularly, there’s a major delay at the West Coast Tunnel. It was reported that there’s a
collision between two vehicles inside the tunnel. This has forced the police to shut down one
lane temporarily. The authorities said the tunnel won’t reopen until past midnight as it takes
time to have those cars towed from the tunnel. If you are driving into the city from the west
side now, you are encouraged to take the Silver Bridge instead. Also, just as a note if you’re on
southbound Interstate seventy-five near Waterloo River, please be aware that there is currently
a high-wind advisory out for that area, so please drive safely. For more of your latest updates,
keep it tuned to KTN Radio. The next traffic news will be aired in an hour.

Thank you for coming to the grand opening of the Homestead Library. It’s taken 18 months
to complete this building, but I think the wait has been worth it. This magnificent ceiling-glass
structure has been called the perfect marriage of function and form, and I think all of us here
today would agree with that statement. Now I’m going to hand the microphone to a special
guest, the man who designed this beautiful edifice, Klaus Kirshner. Mr. Kirshner has flown
all the way from Austria for this occasion, and we are honored to have him with us. He is
renowned throughout the world for his innovative architecture and distinctive style. Would you
please join me in giving a warm Holmstead welcome to Klaus Kirshner!

Are you too busy to get in shape? Not with Porta-Trainer! No, Porta-Trainer is not a personal

the gym. This amazing, lightweight device has everything you need to strengthen your arms,
legs, belly, shoulders, chest and thighs in just minutes a day. It’s so simple, it just hooks up to
a doorknob, hook, or hanger. The tough, flexible bands stretch as far as you can pull them,
offering maximum resistance that builds muscles and tones fat fast! But the most amazing
thing about Porta-Trainer is the price. Normally Porta-Trainer sells for $59.99. But if you order
right now, by calling the number at the bottom of your screen, Porta-Trainer can be yours for
only $29.99 -- less than one month’s dues at most health clubs! But wait, there’s more. If you
call in the next 10 minutes, we’ll throw in this beautiful Porta-Trainer tote bag, as well as this
instructional video, absolutely free! This is a $100 value! Don’t wait. Call now. Have your credit

Hello, Cathy. This is John Taylor from Accounting and I’m calling about the reimbursement
request you made yesterday. According to the request form you submitted, you spent as much
as 1,500 dollars during the business trip to Tokyo last month. Though I went through all copies
of receipts you attached to your expense report I wasn’t able to find the receipt for the hotel
bill. It seems like you didn’t include it by mistake. I need it by the end of the day at the latest in
order to process your payment. Please give me a call and let me know if you can send it to me
by either e-mail or fax. Otherwise, you may have to wait another month until you get paid. If
you have any inquiries about this, you are encouraged to come by my office on the tenth floor
anytime you want. I’ll be working at my office until 8 p.m. today.

our normal business operations are not affected, electrical services will be shut down for safety
issues. As a result, all elevators except the ones in the main factory building won’t operate
during the inspection. If you have any questions or concerns, please call our maintenance

Hi. Bill. This is Peter from the manufacturing facility. I know that you were at the plant this
morning, and I don’t mean to be an inconvenience. However, I was hoping that you could come
back to the plant as soon as you get a chance. There seems to be a problem with the main
assembly line. The conveyor system isn’t working properly, and I was hoping you could come
by and take a look at it. Unfortunately. We can’t continue with production until this situation is
rectified. As you know, we have a number of large orders we were hoping to complete before
the weekend, Again. I’m really sorry to bother you.

Good morning. I called this meeting to share opinions about our new growth strategy with you.
As you know, we have experienced a drastic decrease in sales of large cars in the last 3 years.
Although small foreign cars are in high demand in the United States, full-size cars such as
our AX models, have become less popular in the market. I think it’s time to change our future
direction. I recommend we develop new production lines for compact cars as well as hybrid
vehicles. In particular, cost-effective hybrid cars are “strategically” important to us. While the
new hybrids are almost as powerful as normal cars, their fuel efficiency is much better than
most cars. I’m sure they are becoming more popular with consumers. As the president, I firmly
believe that we should start to develop effective hybrids that people want to drive as soon as
possible.
