TOEIC Part V Questions (12)

You will find that some of the questions are harder than others, but you should try to answer every one. There is no penalty for guessing. Do not be concerned if you cannot answer all of the questions.

Do not mark your answers in this test book. You must put all of your answers on the separate answer sheet that you have been given. When putting your answer to a question on your answer sheet, be sure to fill in (blacken completely with pencil) the answer space corresponding to the letter of your choice. Make your answer marks on the answer sheet dark and heavy, as shown in the next page.

Cairo is the capital of _____.

(A) Egypt
(B) Indonesia
(C) Peru
(D) Canada

Sample Answer

(A)

Since Cairo is the capital of Egypt, the correct answer is (A). Therefore you would fill in (blacken) space A. Notice how this has been done for the example given.

Mark only one answer for each question. If you change your mind about an answer after you have marked it on your answer sheet, completely erase your old answer and then mark your new answer. You must mark the answer sheet carefully so that the test-scoring machine can accurately record your test score.
