Wanted: Feedback on TOEIC® Listening Exercises

[Kitosdad]

Good morning Miskhan. An altogether confusing question. Perhaps if you were to rephrase it.

It appears that the patient is now working on someone's teeth. That surely is an oversight on someone's part.

Kitos.

Hi Misskhan, if you take a closer look at the picture you will see that the dentist is examining the patient's upper teeth, not his lower ones: http://www.english-test.net/toeic/listening/at_the_dentist.html

Hi Torsten,
I've done all the listening exercises and I think the sistem works very well. What I could suggest is that the woman's voice would be changed, because when I am asked about "what the woman said", I can't distinguish the woman's voice from that of the man's. Also, im my opinion, there are too many questions about forecasts, traffic situation and speeches. I don't know if the exam is just like that, but in terms of learning practical English, I think that other subjects could be more explored. Excuse me if the considerations I've made are innapropriate, but they are exactly how I felt. Thank you for your attention.
M.Cecília.

Hi, Mr Torsten:
I'm Tuyet. I visit forum to express my idea about toeic comprehension listening. I agree wiith Janelle that the voice of women in the mp3 similar to that of men. Maybe this causes mistakes for listeners who are not native of British. But anyway, the accents of speakers are very english.

Hi,Mr torsten
I'm asking about vocabulary meaning in the situation of listening comprehension with name: "employee asks co-worker for his suggestions on booking a conference venue".
http://www.english-test.net/toeic/listening/employee_asks_co-worker_for_his_suggestions_on_booking_conference_venue.html

What is the meaning of " input" in the dialog, and come down=discount means to cut the price down?.
the question "Do you have a minute" used to ask someone for their time? Do we have any other expressions for this situation?
Tuyet
Thanks for helping me.

[Torsten]

Hi Tuyet,

Input in this context means 'opinion'.
Come down in this context means 'reduce the price'.
Do you have a minute means 'do you have a little time for me'?

Best regards,
Torsten

Hello, Tosten

I have some problems in TOEIC listening because I don’t know how the American actually uses words in conversation.

On TOEIC listening III, part 4, exercise 7
The man asked for a second -interview the woman, but correct answer is “to schedule a meeting”.
Then I understand the meaning of meeting includes job-interview.
I considered this matter as below.
Please give me some advices.

1 ,She is the only one finalist, so he will not need to check if she is qualified, so a second job-interview is a meeting, but if there are more finalists, he has to have a third interview, in this case, American do not say a meeting.

2, Job-interview is one kind of meeting, so occasionally job-interview is called meeting.

On TOEIC listening III, part 4, exercise 9,
I understand that be out of town means to take a business trip. But I would make sure when the woman go to trip on vacation, if I can say that the woman is out of town.

Thank you,
Michiru
