TOEFL iBT Reading Practice Test with Answers (#10)

[@fernandaperosa7810]

Hey, Josh! I really needed to take a time to comment here and to thank you! I binged watched a lot of your videos and took my first TOEFL IBT test recently. I scored 107/120 (R: 26, L: 29, S: 25, W:27) and as someone who never took English classes and never had the opportunity to travel to another country, I was on cloud 9 when I got my test results back. Thank you so much!

Hey, I have TOEFL ibt test in upcoming weeks and I am so stressed about it, I think this test is really hard. You have the experience so can you share with me how hard it was, if possible. Appreciate it.

[@fernandaperosa7810]

@@shaqayeqr4575 for me it was a bit stresfull because my computer stoped working and it took like 45 minutes to work again, but the proctors helped me out and I could return to the test. I lost only a few minutes in the reading section. Despite that, it went very well. I studied a lot of Joshua videos and his tips so I was kind confident during the test. So my advice for you is to study, especially how to do answer the speaking and writing questions (Joshua gives great examples on his videos of how to do that) and practice as many times as you can.

[@leidymantilla1836]

Thank you for this resource !

[@adrianorp3228]

I scored 28 in this section a few days ago. Two words of advice: watch the time! Since this will be the first section, it can happen (in my case) that you lose time adjusting to the situation. This costs you valuable time... Second advice: Remember that you don't have to answer all 20 questions correctly to get the full score. Good luck!

[@elenad889]

Hey, Josh! Thanks for the great materials! Can you please explain why the answer to question 8 is B? I chose D, and we find support for it in the first sentence. First, “the function of sleep is different for everyone” is rephrased in the sentence as “sleep serves no single universally adaptive function”; and second, the part “and the amount required varies” is the same as “different species have evolved different patterns of sleep in response to their unique evolutionary pressures”. Option D perfectly restates the information in the first sentence, and there is just no logical contradiction in any part. I get it why B could also be right, however, it doesn’t so explicitly expresses the idea of the text. We can infer it from the context, yes. But I can’t understand why, if there’s a better, more precise answer option such as D, the correct answer is B?

[@TSTPrep]

Thanks very much for your question. The answer cannot be D because the passage says sleep varies among different species, not different people.

[@elenad889]

@@TSTPrep Thanks for your answer! Now I get it. My mother tongue played a trick on me. In English "everyone" is used to talk only about people, I guess, whereas in my language we use it for every living organism.

[@saisreenivas8875]

Hey Josh! Have a doubt in the final question of 2nd passage: The second option says "Europe’s feudal society was a reciprocal system in which knights and serfs served their lords in return for resources, protection, and land" - However, the passage doesn't mention anywhere that knights worked for resources, protection or land. It only mentions this - "knights gave military service to a lord and carried out his justice". Is there something I am missing here?

[@TSTPrep]

Hi, and thanks for the question. As you noted, the passage says Knights gave military service to the lord. It can be assumed or implied that was for protection or land, as this fits exactly what the passage is talking about. More importantly, the summary sentence is mainly talking about the serfs, as is answer B. I do see your point, though. :)

[@kentosmentosbentos1218]

I have a question... On the last question of each passage, it asks you to pick three choices that best summarize what you have read, and it gives you an introductory sentence with it. Are we supposed to answer that question based on what 3 options fit under that introductory sentence or just the three main ideas of the passage?

[@kentosmentosbentos1218]

More specifically, do the three answer question we pick have to be in direct correlation with the introductory sentence?

can someone explain why the answer of question 8 passage 2 is B? To me, it's D because in the Relative Clause, the "winter is the most brutal season" part is the more important than "where..." part and answer D is just a perfect paraphrase for the former.

[@tejaskachare4363]

Hi, @TST prep Please explain why the answer of passage 2 question 3 is D. Why not option B is correct? The passage mentions that “Lords owned the Land…” And the option says “ Landowners were referred to Lords…” . The explanation for why option B is wrong is not even there in the PDF. Please explain.

[@TSTPrep]

You make a good point. B is not explicitly stated, but the sentence does say the landowners rented out the land and then the knights worked for their lords on this land, so you can assume B is true. D, is clearly wrong because there was a feudal system that governed the farming of the land.

@user-lj1jl5nb2v I hope you got a good score. Can you help me understand if reading in the actual test is on a similar level as this test or more or less complicated than this?

[@avvak12]

11:36 I strongly disagree with the answer B, as suggested by the keys. My explanation: "which increase in darkness" refers to predatory risks. So the focus of this piece of information is solely on the behaviour of animals who obviously tend to attack at night. Now, you can indeed argue that a) is incorrect, because the author merely suggests or implies but not explains so. But, b) is incorrect either, as if the predatory risk increases in darkness, why is the logical consequence for humans to go to sleep over this time period? Doesn't make sense at all - you are aware of danger but still go to sleep bearing the hope not to be eaten overnight. Now, the next sentence gives us the explanation: humans thus MOVED in the safe areas, like caves, to sleep there, protected by natural surrounding from the predators. Yet this sentence is not in the spotlight of the question: we are asked WHY does the author say that the predatory risks increase at night. I understand this question and reference quite literally. All possible inferences at this point are simply overthinking.

[@TSTPrep]

Thanks for your feedback. I understand your point, but B is correct. The sentence the question is asking about offers introduces the possibility of attacks, which increase in darkness. The phrase, "increase in darkness is there to explain why tht why that theory exists. I would suggest not reading the whole paragph because you may be overthinking your responses. The reason for why a phrase is used should be clear within 2-3 sentences of the phrase itself, so there is no need to read until the end.

[@hereiam3692]

for the paragraph 5 question #7,where did girls come from? are children and girls can be used interchangeabily?

[@TSTPrep]

Yes, it says "women and children," in the passage. It is safe to assume some of them are girls. Otherwise, it would have said women and boys.

[@tonysu8286]

Thanks Josh!, The answer of "Why Do We Sleep Paragraph 3's" 6th questions answer provided in PDF is wrong, it misinterpreted the option between C for D.

This one is tricky. The main difference is one option says there is evidence and the other option says the results are mixed. This is how the test differentiate the two.

Hey Josh, thanks a lot for the videos!! I have a question regarding question 7: the correct answer would be c, but in my opinion, b is also right (in this context false), as it says that women and girls made yarn. The text firstly mentions men and boys and then women and children. So they are not necessarily girls or am I wrong?

[@TSTPrep]

Thanks for the question. B would not be the answer. The men and boys cut sheered the sheep but the women and girls made it into yarn. Thus, B would be true. Since we want the false answer, we would cross it out. :)

Thanks for your question. For question five, A is too specific and not linked to the phrase they are asking about.

Hi there and thank you for commenting. This article will provide you with strategies to help answer summary questions. - tstprep.com/articles/toefl/your-guide-to-answering-reading-summary-questions-for-the-toefl-test/

[@aliotripura6752]

Dear Sir, greetings from Bangladesh. If I take TOEFL iPT or in test center, then will the question be the same as iBT or different? Thank-you!

[@TSTPrep]

TOEFL iBT and TOEFL iBT Home Edition is the same test. If you are confused about the types of the TOEFL tests, checK out this article tstprep.com/articles/types-of-toefl-exams/ or visit the official site, ETS.

[@nizxr2844]

Hi I just wanted to know if in question 10 we lose all 2 points even if we only get 1 or 2 choices wrong out of the three. And thank you for your help.

[@TSTPrep]

Summary questions are worth two points. If all three choices are correct, award yourself two points. If two choices are correct and one is incorrect, award yourself one point. If two or more choices are incorrect, you earn zero points for the given question.

[@hadjerBrioua]

Tomorrow is my exam and I am very worried about it. I watched all your videos and practiced all your mock tests. Please wish me luck.

[@TSTPrep]

How did it go?

[@hadjerBrioua]

I did well. I got the score I needed: 86 in total and l: 27, r:19, s:19, w:21. Thank you for your videos. @@TSTPrep

Hi, i noticed that the difficulty of vocabulary and word limit in the new reading passage had also decreased. Is is true or is it just me? your videos are always so helpful, thank you!

[@TSTPrep]

It is supposed to be the same level of difficulty.

my toefl exam will be at 27 august and i cant understand these questions because i dont have enough time to translate i will be proud if you can tell me how to think in english or send video link how to think in enlish im really like your trial exams but i cant do them

[@TSTPrep]

In general, when students are at a lower level of proficiency, I find that TOEFL practice is not the best. Students at lower levels of proficiency should work on the basics of English first. I would suggest investing time in a site like LingQ where you can do some extensive practice that is not connected to the TOEFL, that way you can build your skills and vocabulary with text that is a little bit easier before moving ahead with the TOEFL. www.lingq.com/

[@yagzay9171]

soo how does scoring work on this new reading section?

[@TSTPrep]

Each section is still worth 30 points, but the number of Reading questions has been reduced, so the questions are worth a bit more now since there are 20 instead of 30. Unfortunately, TOEFL does not release the exact formula.

[@hebaeisa2044]

how can i know my score in reading section?

[@tdtran847]

Quick question to everyone. So, I have scored a 17 out of 20 on the reading test (practice). However, I don’t understand the math right now… Can somebody tell me what my score is on a scale 1-30. Each question was worth 1 point, but when I do the math I have 17 points that makes not even C2 level. I have you link to this please share.

I'm currently preparing for this exam, which I'll take on monday. I'm feeling a little nervous as I only started preparing today. I passed the CAE exam last year with a score of 201 (C2), so do you have any tips for me? Are there any similarities? Do you think I'll be able to get a score of 91 considering my level? I'm not feeling particularly confident because of my lack of preparation, but I will make sure to use this channel well 😁 Thank you for all your videos! UPDATE: 28R 27L 30S 27W and overall 112 😊
