Difficulty and Tips
Khó khăn và lời khuyên
 Difficulty

 There is only one speaker.

 This part is also the last one in the Toeic listening.

Part4 is considered as the most the difficult part in

the Toeic listening.
 TIPS
• Đọc trước câu hỏi và suy luận nội dung của bài nói từ câu hỏi.
1

• Cố gắng xác định xem đoạn thông tin thuộc dạng nào.
2

• Tập trung nghe phần có thông tin cần thiết

3

• Đáp án đúng thường có từ hoặc cụm từ gần với từ hoặc cụm từ mà

4 bạn nghe được.
5
• Một số lưu ý giúp bạn tìm được câu trả lời nhanh.

 Câu hỏi về thông tin chung: đáp án thường nằm ở những câu đầu của đoạn nói.
 Câu hỏi về thông tin chi tiết: bạn cần tập trung lắng nghe phần giữa và lưu ý với
các từ đồng nghĩa.
 Câu hỏi về suy luận: chủ yếu là phần cuối.
Dấu hiệu xác định phần này:
• Please: Please go to…., Please visit, Please note that….
• You are advised to….
• You are required to….
• Remember to…
• Ngoài ra, có 1 số từ khó nghe ra hơn như: Now, then, next, finally…
 Kỹ thuật đầu bút chì

Kỹ năng làm bài thi là rất quan trọng trong mọi bài Thi. TOEIC cũng không ngoại lệ, kỹ thuật làm
bài tốt sẽ giúp bạn tăng 50 – 70 điểm trong bài thi này. Với phần 1 – 2, kỹ thuật đầu bút chì rất hữu
ích:
1. Đặt đầu bút chì lên câu A trong tờ đáp án
2. Nghe câu A: Nếu câu A có vẻ đúng thì vẫn giữ đầu bút chì ở Câu A
3. Nghe câu B: Nếu câu B đúng hơn thì duy chuyển bút chì sang câu B, nếu không thì vẫn giữ
đầu bút chì ở câu A
4. Làm tương tự như vậy với câu B và C
5. Chọn đáp án hợp lý nhất trong A, B, C
Kỹ thuật này loại bỏ các nguyên nhân gây mất điểm lãng xẹt khi nghe phần 1 & 2:
 Không đánh giá được câu nào hợp lý nhất sau khi băng đọc xong
 Biết câu trả lời đúng mà không nhớ nó nằm vị trí nào trong A,B, C, D
 Dính bẫy
