【No. 0024】TOEIC Test Day

Jan 11, 2015 21:28
Today was the TOEIC test day, so I was a little nervous.

And I took the TOEIC test.

At first, I went well in the listening section, and the phase problem section as well.

However, I spent many time to solve phase problem section, and I couldn't answer the last 15 problems (I filled the mark sheet randomly).

I want to be able to read English statements more quickly.

  • At first, I did well in the listening section, and the [phrase problem section]as well.

    Is this under the Reading Section?

Thank you so much for your correction! (^-^)

> Is this under the Reading Section?

Yes! I wanted to mean [phrase problem section] as Part 5 and Part 6 under the Reading section.

  • TOEIC Test Day
  • This sentence is perfect! No correction needed!
  • Today was the TOEIC test day, so I was a little nervous.
  • Today was the day of the TOEIC test, so I was a little nervous.
  • And I took the TOEIC test.
  • And I took the TOEIC test.

    You don't need this sentence.

  • At first, I went well in the listening section, and the phase problem section as well.
  • The listening section and the first part of the grammar section went well,

    I imagine that problems in phrasing must refer to grammar.

  • However, I spent many time to solve phase problem section, and I couldn't answer the last 15 problems (I filled the mark sheet randomly).
  • but then, I got bogged down in the grammar section, and so wasn't able to answer the last 15 problems (I just filled in the answer sheet randomly).

    "get bogged down in" = ~にのめり込む、~で動きが取れなくなる

  • I want to be able to read English statements more quickly.
  • I want/need to get faster at reading English.

>However, I spent many time to solve phase problem section, and I couldn't answer the last 15 problems

I hate it when that happens!

>I just filled in the answer sheet randomly.

Spoken like a true mathematician! (笑)

Thank you for your polite correction! (*'▽')

And now I noticed my mistake. Actually, I wanted to say like "I got bogged down in the single passage section (which is following the grammar section)."

Someday, I wanna be a mathematician! :D
