The TOEFL is a standardized test of English language ability for those wishing to enroll in American universities. The test is accepted by many English-speaking academic and professional institutions. TOEFL is one of the two major English-language tests in the world, the other being the IELTS.

The following quizzes and exercises are to help you prepare for the TOEFL examination.

Grammar

Being a high level exam, grammar knowledge for those taking the TOEFL exam will also necessarily be advanced, with knowledge required of grammatical structures such as: active/passive, parallelism, inversion, noun phrases, gerund/infinitive, etc.

The grammar section for TOEFL gives practice of all of these and more.

Reading

The reading section of the TOEFL test is, as you'd expect for an exam for university entrance, based around more formal or academic texts and the understanding thereof. The passages are on academic topics; they are the kind of material that might be found in an undergraduate university textbook.

Passages require understanding of rhetorical functions such as cause-effect, compare-contrast and argumentation. Students answer questions about main ideas, details, inferences, essential information, sentence insertion, vocabulary, rhetorical purpose and overall ideas. New types of questions in the TOEFL iBT test require filling out tables or completing summaries.

Importantly, prior knowledge of the subject under discussion is not necessary to come to the correct answer.
