The lectures in the TOEFL iBT reflect the kind of listening and speaking that occurs in the classroom.
The pictures that accompany the lecture help you know whether one or several people will be speaking.
Pictures on the computer screen help you imagine the setting and the roles of the speakers.The conversations on the TOEFL iBT may take place
After the listening material is played, you both see and hear each question before you see the answer choices.
This encourages you to listen for main ideas.
There are 4 question formats in the Listening section:
A multiple-choice question measures understanding of a speaker’s attitude, degree of certainty, or purpose.
These questions require you to listen for voice tones and other cues and determine how speakers feel about the topic they are discussing.
In some questions, a portion of the lecture or conversation is replayed so you do not need to rely on memory of what was said.
In the replay format, you listen to part of the conversation or lecture again and then answer a question.
Sometimes the question repeats a portion of the listening material again, as indicated by the headphones icon.
