TOEFL-The Test of English as a foreign language (TOEFL) is a standardized test that measures the English proficiency of students who wish to enter college and university programs where English is the language of instruction. The TOEFL is also a requirement of many employers. The TOEFL is produced and administrated by educational testing services, a professional test development organization in Princeton, New Jersey, USA.
The Internet -based TOEFL IBT was introduced in 2005. The TOEFL IBT replaced the computer –based test (CBT) and the paper based test (PBT). The TOEFL IBT has four sections, which assess reading, listening, speaking and writing. The test is approximately four hours long, with one ten-minute break following the listening section.
| Section | Content | Number Of Questions | Approximate Time |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reading | 3-5 Passages (12-14 questions each) |
36-70 | 60-100 minutes |

In the reading section, test takers read three to five passages and answer questions about them. In the listening section, they listen to two or three conversations and four to six lectures and then answer questions about them. In the speaking section, test takers speak in response to two questions about their own experience and four questions about texts that they listen to or read during the test. In the writing section, test takers complete two writing tasks. One task is about a reading passage and a lecture, and the other is an essay question about a general topic.
The major differences between the TOEFL IBT and previous versions of test are:
The content of the TOEFL IBT reflects the language used in real college and university settings. Reading passages are similar to those in textbooks and other course materials. Listening content includes conversations, lectures, and discussions about campus situations and academic topics.
The speaking and Writing sections include some tasks that combine skills. For example, a test taker will read a passage, listen to a lecture, and then write or speak in response. The integrated –skills tasks reflect how people use language in real life. They are a useful measure of how well prospective students will be able to communicate in an English Speaking environment.
