IMPORTANT: The examples in this part of SECTION I are shorter than the actual mini
talks on the TOEFL examination. The actual mini talks usually have four
questions following them. |
|
Announcements and
Advertisements |
|
Announcements are short talks that provide factual information.
Advertisements
are short talks that provide persuasive Information.
In some talks on Part C, you will hear factual or persuasive information.
When you hear a talk, you must be able to summarize the important ideas. You
must also be able to answer questions that begin with the following words:
who,
what, when, why? |

Announcer: |
During this holiday season you'll be glad that you took pictures. So get
kodacolor film at Fotoland, this week only, two rolls for $3.25. Remember, good
pictures start with good film, and kodacolor is the best !! |
|
|
Get your film now at Fotoland and bring it back after the holiday to be
developed. Unless we develop your pictures in three days, you don't pay us a
penny, and you never pay unless they turn out like you want them to. |

With Fotoland, you can depend on larger, clearer prints. Pictures will make
your memories of this Christmas last forever. |

From all of us at Fotoland, best wishes for a Merry Christmas, and many more
