LEVELS OF VOCABULARY
Most languages have several levels of vocabulary that may be used by the same speakers. In English, at least three have
been identified and described.

Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a
language in any situation regardless of the level of formality. As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed
in standard dictionaries. Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all
speakers of a language and used in informal speech or writing, but not considered acceptable for more formal situations.
Almost all idiomatic expressions are colloquial language. Slang, however, refers to words and expressions understood by a
large number of speakers but not accepted as appropriate formal usage by the majority. Colloquial expressions and even
slang may be found in standard dictionaries but will be so identified. Both colloquial usage and slang are more common in
speech than in writing.
Colloquial speech often passes into standard speech. Some slang also passes into standard speech, but other slang
expressions enjoy momentary popularity followed by obscurity. In some cases, the majority never accepts certain slang
phrases but nevertheless retains them in their collective memories. Every generation seems to require its own set of words to
describe familiar objects and events.
It has been pointed out by a number of linguists that three cultural conditions are necessary for the creation of a large body
of slang expressions. First, the introduction and acceptance of new objects and situations in the society; second, a diverse
population with a large number of subgroups; third, association among the subgroups and the majority population. Finally, it
is worth noting that the terms "standard," "colloquial", and "slang" exist only as abstract labels for scholars who study
language. Only a tiny number of the speakers of any language will be aware that they are using colloquial or slang
expressions. Most speakers of English will, during appropriate situations, select and use all three types of expressions.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Many people like to eat pizza, but not everyone knows how to make it. Making the perfect pizza can be complicated, but
there are lots of ways for you to make a more basic version at home. When you make pizza, you must begin with the crust.

The crust can be hard to make. If you want to make the crust yourself, you will have to make dough using flour, water, and
yeast. You will have to knead the dough with your hands. If you do not have enough time to do this, you can use a prepared
crust that you buy from the store.
After you have chosen your crust, you must then add the sauce. Making your own sauce from scratch can take a long time.
You have to buy tomatoes, peel them, and then cook them with spices. If this sounds like too much work, you can also
purchase jarred sauce from the store. Many jarred sauces taste almost as good as the kind you make a home.
Now that you have your crust and your sauce, you need to add the cheese. Cheese comes from milk, which comes from
cows. Do you have a cow in your backyard? Do you know how to milk the cow? Do you know how to turn that milk into
cheese? If not, you might want to buy cheese from the grocery store instead of making it yourself.
When you have the crust, sauce, and cheese ready, you can add other toppings. Some people like to put meat on their pizza,
while other people like to add vegetables. Some people even like to add pineapple! The best part of making a pizza at home is
that you can customize it by adding your own favorite ingredients.
(Adapted from />Question 42: The author's main purpose in writing this passage is to......
A. outline steps to make a basic pizza at home
B. describe the history of pizza
C. provide tips about how to make your pizza especially delicious
D. teach a healthier way to make pizza
Question 43: As used in paragraph 3, which is the best synonym for purchase?
A. forget
B. cook
C. buy
D. ask
Question 44: In paragraph 3, the author asks a series of questions in order to.......


A. reinforce the idea that most people probably live on farms
B. prove that store-bought cheese tastes better than homemade cheese
C. emphasize the superiority of homemade cheese over store bought cheese
D. support the idea that most people cannot make homemade cheese
Question 45: Which of the following words best describes how the author feels about making a pizza from scratch?

A. enthusiastic
B. understanding
C. negative
D. helpful
Question 46: Which of the following conclusions would work best at the end of this passage?
A. Once you have prepared the crust, sauce, cheese, and toppings, you are ready to bake your pizza. I think you will see
that making pizza at home can be a good alternative to purchasing it from the store.
B. It can be understood that making your pizza from scratch should be avoided at all costs. Use store bought ingredients
and save yourself a heap of trouble.
C. Although the crust, sauce, and toppings are all important ingredients in pizza, it is clear that the cheese is most
important. Therefore, be sure your cheese is homemade.
D. As you can see, cooking a pizza can be fun, but it can also be very expensive. But, as you can see, the best things are
worth paying for.
Question 47: According to the author, which of the following ingredients do you need to have ready before you can add
the toppings? I. crust II. sauce III. cheese
A. I, II, and III
B. I only
C. I and II only
D. II and III only
Question 48: In paragraph 3, the author writes, "Many jarred sauces taste almost as good as the kind you make at
home." The purpose of this statement is to.......
A. support the previous paragraph
B. clarify a later statement
C. clarify an earlier statement
D. provide an example
Mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the most suitable response to complete each of the
following exchanges.
Question 49: Peter is giving a compliment on the meal Mary cooked.
~ Peter: "That was a great dinner. You must have spent all day." ~ Mary: "..............."
A. Nothing special. It's simple.

B. You can eat up if you like.
C. Thank you. My mother has just cooked it.
D. Thanks. But it really only took an hour.
Question 50: Jack wants to know the way to downtown, so he asks a strange woman at the bus station.
~ Jack: "Do all the buses go downtown?" ~ The woman: "......... . Sorry. I'm new here."
A. I don't know.
B. What for.
C. All the ones with a red sticker in the window.
D. You should walk. It's near here.

LEVELS OF VOCABULARY
Most languages have several levels of vocabulary that may be used by the same speakers. In English, at least three have
been identified and described.
Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a
language in any situation regardless of the level of formality. As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed
in standard dictionaries. Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Many people like to eat pizza, but not everyone knows how to make it. Making the perfect pizza can be complicated, but
there are lots of ways for you to make a more basic version at home. When you make pizza, you must begin with the crust.
The crust can be hard to make. If you want to make the crust yourself, you will have to make dough using flour, water, and
yeast. You will have to knead the dough with your hands. If you do not have enough time to do this, you can use a prepared
crust that you buy from the store.
After you have chosen your crust, you must then add the sauce. Making your own sauce from scratch can take a long time.
You have to buy tomatoes, peel them, and then cook them with spices. If this sounds like too much work, you can also
purchase jarred sauce from the store. Many jarred sauces taste almost as good as the kind you make a home.
Now that you have your crust and your sauce, you need to add the cheese. Cheese comes from milk, which comes from
cows. Do you have a cow in your backyard? Do you know how to milk the cow? Do you know how to turn that milk into
cheese? If not, you might want to buy cheese from the grocery store instead of making it yourself.
When you have the crust, sauce, and cheese ready, you can add other toppings. Some people like to put meat on their pizza,
while other people like to add vegetables. Some people even like to add pineapple! The best part of making a pizza at home is
that you can customize it by adding your own favorite ingredients.

that making pizza at home can be a good alternative to purchasing it from the store.
C. As you can see, cooking a pizza can be fun, but it can also be very expensive. But, as you can see, the best things are

LEVELS OF VOCABULARY
Most languages have several levels of vocabulary that may be used by the same speakers. In English, at least three have

Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a

speakers of a language and used in informal speech or writing, but not considered acceptable for more formal situations.
Almost all idiomatic expressions are colloquial language. Slang, however, refers to words and expressions understood by a
large number of speakers but not accepted as appropriate formal usage by the majority. Colloquial expressions and even
slang may be found in standard dictionaries but will be so identified. Both colloquial usage and slang are more common in
speech than in writing.
Colloquial speech often passes into standard speech. Some slang also passes into standard speech, but other slang
expressions enjoy momentary popularity followed by obscurity. In some cases, the majority never accepts certain slang
phrases but nevertheless retains them in their collective memories. Every generation seems to require its own set of words to
describe familiar objects and events.
It has been pointed out by a number of linguists that three cultural conditions are necessary for the creation of a large body
of slang expressions. First, the introduction and acceptance of new objects and situations in the society; second, a diverse
population with a large number of subgroups; third, association among the subgroups and the majority population. Finally, it
is worth noting that the terms "standard," "colloquial", and "slang" exist only as abstract labels for scholars who study


language. Only a tiny number of the speakers of any language will be aware that they are using colloquial or slang
expressions. Most speakers of English will, during appropriate situations, select and use all three types of expressions.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.

Many people like to eat pizza, but not everyone knows how to make it. Making the perfect pizza can be complicated, but
there are lots of ways for you to make a more basic version at home. When you make pizza, you must begin with the crust.
The crust can be hard to make. If you want to make the crust yourself, you will have to make dough using flour, water, and
yeast. You will have to knead the dough with your hands. If you do not have enough time to do this, you can use a prepared
crust that you buy from the store.
After you have chosen your crust, you must then add the sauce. Making your own sauce from scratch can take a long time.
You have to buy tomatoes, peel them, and then cook them with spices. If this sounds like too much work, you can also
purchase jarred sauce from the store. Many jarred sauces taste almost as good as the kind you make a home.
Now that you have your crust and your sauce, you need to add the cheese. Cheese comes from milk, which comes from
cows. Do you have a cow in your backyard? Do you know how to milk the cow? Do you know how to turn that milk into
cheese? If not, you might want to buy cheese from the grocery store instead of making it yourself.
When you have the crust, sauce, and cheese ready, you can add other toppings. Some people like to put meat on their pizza,
while other people like to add vegetables. Some people even like to add pineapple! The best part of making a pizza at home is
that you can customize it by adding your own favorite ingredients.
(Adapted from />Question 36: The author's main purpose in writing this passage is to......
A. teach a healthier way to make pizza
B. describe the history of pizza
C. provide tips about how to make your pizza especially delicious
D. outline steps to make a
basic pizza at home
Question 37: Which of the following words best describes how the author feels about making a pizza from scratch?
A. negative
B. understanding
C. helpful
D. enthusiastic
Question 38: Which of the following conclusions would work best at the end of this passage?
A. As you can see, cooking a pizza can be fun, but it can also be very expensive. But, as you can see, the best things are
worth paying for.
B. Although the crust, sauce, and toppings are all important ingredients in pizza, it is clear that the cheese is most
important. Therefore, be sure your cheese is homemade.

C. Once you have prepared the crust, sauce, cheese, and toppings, you are ready to bake your pizza. I think you will see
that making pizza at home can be a good alternative to purchasing it from the store.
D. It can be understood that making your pizza from scratch should be avoided at all costs. Use store bought ingredients
and save yourself a heap of trouble.
Question 39: As used in paragraph 3, which is the best synonym for purchase?
A. cook
B. ask
C. forget
D. buy
Question 40: According to the author, which of the following ingredients do you need to have ready before you can add
the toppings? I. crust II. sauce III. cheese
A. I and II only
B. I only
C. I, II, and III
D. II and III only
Question 41: In paragraph 3, the author writes, "Many jarred sauces taste almost as good as the kind you make at
home." The purpose of this statement is to.......
A. provide an example
B. clarify a later statement
C. support the previous paragraph
D. clarify an earlier statement
Question 42: In paragraph 3, the author asks a series of questions in order to.......
A. prove that store-bought cheese tastes better than homemade cheese
B. emphasize the superiority of homemade cheese over store bought cheese
C. support the idea that most people cannot make homemade cheese
D. reinforce the idea that most people probably live on farms
Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B , C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
LEVELS OF VOCABULARY
Most languages have several levels of vocabulary that may be used by the same speakers. In English, at least three have

been identified and described.
Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a
language in any situation regardless of the level of formality. As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed
in standard dictionaries. Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all
speakers of a language and used in informal speech or writing, but not considered acceptable for more formal situations.
Almost all idiomatic expressions are colloquial language. Slang, however, refers to words and expressions understood by a
large number of speakers but not accepted as appropriate formal usage by the majority. Colloquial expressions and even
slang may be found in standard dictionaries but will be so identified. Both colloquial usage and slang are more common in
speech than in writing.
Colloquial speech often passes into standard speech. Some slang also passes into standard speech, but other slang
expressions enjoy momentary popularity followed by obscurity. In some cases, the majority never accepts certain slang
phrases but nevertheless retains them in their collective memories. Every generation seems to require its own set of words to
describe familiar objects and events.


It has been pointed out by a number of linguists that three cultural conditions are necessary for the creation of a large body
of slang expressions. First, the introduction and acceptance of new objects and situations in the society; second, a diverse
population with a large number of subgroups; third, association among the subgroups and the majority population. Finally, it
is worth noting that the terms "standard," "colloquial", and "slang" exist only as abstract labels for scholars who study
language. Only a tiny number of the speakers of any language will be aware that they are using colloquial or slang
expressions. Most speakers of English will, during appropriate situations, select and use all three types of expressions.
(Adapted from "Barron's Practice Exercises for the TOEFL, 6th edition")
Question 43: How is slang defined by the author?
A. Words and phrases accepted by the majority for formal usage
B. Words and phrases that are understood by a restricted group of speakers
C. Words and phrases understood by a large number of speakers but not accepted as formal usage
D. Words and phrases understood by the majority but not found in standard dictionaries
Question 44: Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?
A. Idiomatic phrases
B. Different types of vocabulary

C. Standard speech
D. Dictionary usage
Question 45: The word "obscurity" in paragraph 3 could best be replaced by.......
A. disappearance
B. influence
C. qualification
D. tolerance
Question 46: The word "appropriate" in line 14 is closest in meaning to.......
A. correct
B. large
C. important
D. old
Question 47: The word "them" in line 22 refers to......
A. the majority
B. slang phrases
C. words
D. memories
Question 48: Which of the following is true of standard usage?
A. It is limited to written language.
B. It can be used in formal or informal settings.
C. It is constantly changing.
D. It is only understood by the upper classes.
Question 49: The author mentions all of the following as requirements for slang expressions to be created EXCEPT......
A. new situations
B. a number of linguists
C. interaction among diverse groups
D. a new generation
Question 50: It can be inferred from the passage that the author......
A. does not approve of colloquial usage in writing
B. does not approve of either slang or colloquial speech in any situation

C. approves of slang and colloquial speech in appropriate situations
D. approves of colloquial speech in some situations, but not slang

cheese? If not, you might want to buy cheese from the grocery store instead of making it yourself.
When you have the crust, sauce, and cheese ready, you can add other toppings. Some people like to put meat on their pizza,

while other people like to add vegetables. Some people even like to add pineapple! The best part of making a pizza at home is
that you can customize it by adding your own favorite ingredients.

LEVELS OF VOCABULARY
Most languages have several levels of vocabulary that may be used by the same speakers. In English, at least three have
been identified and described.
Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a
language in any situation regardless of the level of formality. As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed
in standard dictionaries. Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all
speakers of a language and used in informal speech or writing, but not considered acceptable for more formal situations.
Almost all idiomatic expressions are colloquial language. Slang, however, refers to words and expressions understood by a
large number of speakers but not accepted as appropriate formal usage by the majority. Colloquial expressions and even
slang may be found in standard dictionaries but will be so identified. Both colloquial usage and slang are more common in
speech than in writing.
Colloquial speech often passes into standard speech. Some slang also passes into standard speech, but other slang
expressions enjoy momentary popularity followed by obscurity. In some cases, the majority never accepts certain slang
phrases but nevertheless retains them in their collective memories. Every generation seems to require its own set of words to
describe familiar objects and events.


It has been pointed out by a number of linguists that three cultural conditions are necessary for the creation of a large body
of slang expressions. First, the introduction and acceptance of new objects and situations in the society; second, a diverse

population with a large number of subgroups; third, association among the subgroups and the majority population. Finally, it
is worth noting that the terms "standard," "colloquial", and "slang" exist only as abstract labels for scholars who study
language. Only a tiny number of the speakers of any language will be aware that they are using colloquial or slang
expressions. Most speakers of English will, during appropriate situations, select and use all three types of expressions.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to
each of the questions.
Many people like to eat pizza, but not everyone knows how to make it. Making the perfect pizza can be complicated, but
there are lots of ways for you to make a more basic version at home. When you make pizza, you must begin with the crust.
The crust can be hard to make. If you want to make the crust yourself, you will have to make dough using flour, water, and
yeast. You will have to knead the dough with your hands. If you do not have enough time to do this, you can use a prepared
crust that you buy from the store.
After you have chosen your crust, you must then add the sauce. Making your own sauce from scratch can take a long time.
You have to buy tomatoes, peel them, and then cook them with spices. If this sounds like too much work, you can also
purchase jarred sauce from the store. Many jarred sauces taste almost as good as the kind you make a home.
Now that you have your crust and your sauce, you need to add the cheese. Cheese comes from milk, which comes from
cows. Do you have a cow in your backyard? Do you know how to milk the cow? Do you know how to turn that milk into
cheese? If not, you might want to buy cheese from the grocery store instead of making it yourself.
When you have the crust, sauce, and cheese ready, you can add other toppings. Some people like to put meat on their pizza,
while other people like to add vegetables. Some people even like to add pineapple! The best part of making a pizza at home is
that you can customize it by adding your own favorite ingredients.
