TOIEC Incomplete Sentences Test

Question 1

Mr. Bulala has _________ been promoted.

Accepted Answer

already

Answer

The word 'already' is the most appropriate adverb here because it indicates that the promotion has occurred prior to the present moment or sooner than expected. 'Yet' is typically used in negative statements or questions, 'ever' in questions or negatives, and 'still' implies continuity or lack of change. Therefore, 'Mr. Bulala has already been promoted' correctly conveys the intended meaning.

Question 2

________ Mrs.  Thompson's business acumen is beyond reproach, she has been able to increase profits dramatically.

Accepted Answer

Because

Answer

The word 'Because' is the correct choice as it introduces a reason or cause for the subsequent result. The phrase 'Mrs. Thompson's business acumen is beyond reproach' is a full clause explaining why she was able to increase profits dramatically. 'Because of' requires a noun phrase, 'Even though' implies a contrast, and 'So' introduces a result, not a reason.

Question 3

__________________ all those applying, Mr. Jamison was the most experienced applicant

Accepted Answer

Of

Answer

The preposition 'Of' is correctly used here to indicate selection or comparison within a group. The phrase 'Of all those applying' means 'among all the applicants' and is the standard grammatical construction for identifying the superlative (the most experienced) from a larger set. Other options like 'From,' 'Against,' or 'With' do not convey this specific meaning as naturally or grammatically.

Question 4

__________________ all those applying, Mr. Jamison was the most experienced applicant

Accepted Answer

From

Answer

"From" is used here to indicate selection or distinction from a group. It means "out of" or "among" a particular set of people. In this context, Mr. Jamison was identified as the most experienced *from* the entire pool of applicants.

Accepted Answer

The second part of the sentence provides specific instances (video-conferencing, internet-phone, multimedia) that illustrate how the World Wide Web revolutionized communication. "For example" is the appropriate transition word to introduce these specific illustrations or examples that support the preceding general statement.
