TOEIC Practice Test 17

Listening audio is read aloud by your browser's voice.

Recorded on your device only — play it back and compare with the model answer.
Show sample answer
Model answer: The picture shows a dog, and it makes me think of the working dogs that help people, for example guide dogs for the blind or dogs used by the police. They are trained for many months to stay calm in crowded places. This one seems alert and loyal. If I saw it in a train station, I would not disturb it while it was working.

Express an Opinion

Give your opinion and support it with reasons.

Some people believe online reviews are a reliable way to choose products and services, while others believe they cannot be trusted. What is your opinion?
Recorded on your device only — play it back and compare with the model answer.
Show sample answer
Model answer: I think online reviews can be genuinely useful, but only when read carefully and in large numbers rather than trusted individually. A single glowing or terrible review might reflect an unusual personal experience, but a pattern across hundreds of reviews usually reveals something true about a product or service. Unfortunately, fake reviews, both positive and negative, have become common enough that I always check for verified purchases and look for detailed, specific comments rather than vague praise. Used critically, reviews remain a valuable tool, but they should never be the only factor in a decision.

Write an Opinion Essay

Write an essay giving your opinion with reasons and examples.

Some people believe traditional classroom learning is more effective than online learning, while others believe online learning offers greater advantages. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
Show sample answer
Model answer: The expansion of online learning options has prompted ongoing comparison with traditional classroom education, with strong arguments on both sides. Supporters of traditional classrooms emphasize the value of immediate teacher feedback, spontaneous discussion, and the social development that comes from regularly interacting face to face with peers. They argue that many students, particularly younger ones, struggle to stay motivated and disciplined without the structure and accountability a physical classroom provides. Supporters of online learning point to its flexibility, allowing students to learn at their own pace, revisit difficult material as often as needed, and access courses regardless of geographic location. This flexibility particularly benefits working adults, people with disabilities, or those in remote areas without access to quality local institutions. Online platforms can also incorporate varied multimedia content that some students find more engaging than traditional lectures. In my opinion, the effectiveness of each method depends heavily on the subject matter and the individual learner's needs and self-discipline. Younger students and subjects requiring hands-on practice, such as laboratory sciences or performing arts, likely benefit more from traditional classrooms. Meanwhile, motivated adult learners studying flexible subjects may thrive equally well, or better, online. Rather than declaring one universally superior, I believe education systems should offer both options, allowing students and circumstances to determine which format serves a particular learning goal most effectively.
