Free TOEIC Part 4 Practice Questions (Talks)

Key Takeaways

  • TOEIC Part 4 is 30 questions from 10 short talks.
  • 4 full talks with 12 questions, answers, and the four talk types that cover almost every ETS item.

TOEIC Part 4 (Talks) is 30 questions from 10 short monologues with 3 questions each. One voice, no conversation partner, and the whole talk plays once. It is the last Listening part, which means it also arrives when concentration is lowest.

The good news: Part 4 recycles a small set of talk types. Learn the shape of each and you can predict where every answer sits.

Key Takeaways

  • Part 4 is 30 questions from 10 talks, 3 questions each — the last part of the 45-minute Listening section.
  • Questions and options are printed, like Part 3. Read all three before the talk begins.
  • Four talk types cover most items: announcement, voicemail, advertisement, tour or instruction.
  • Answers arrive in order. The purpose is in the opening, details in the middle, the requested action at the end.
  • Some sets include a visual — a floor plan, an agenda, a price table. The audio names the item; the table gives the answer.

The four talk types and where the answers hide

Please keep bags in front of you on the stairs. Photography without flash is allowed everywhere except the temporary exhibition. We will finish upstairs, where you can buy refreshments and see the harbour from the terrace.

Answer: (C).

Two habits that protect Part 4 marks

  1. Name the talk type in the first sentence. Once you know it is a voicemail, you know question 3 will be a request.
  2. Do not chase a missed answer. Part 4 talks run back to back. Mark your best guess and reset for the next opening line — losing one item is cheaper than losing three.

FAQ

How many questions are in TOEIC Part 4?

30 — from 10 talks with 3 questions each. It is the final part of the Listening section.

Is Part 4 harder than Part 3?

It has one speaker instead of two or three, so there are no turn changes to help you track meaning — but the talks follow predictable formats, which makes them easier to anticipate once you know the four types.

Are the questions printed for Part 4?

Yes, questions and all four options are printed, the same as Part 3.

How do the visual sets work in Part 4?

A table, floor plan or agenda is printed with the questions. The talk names an item in words; you match it to the row in the visual to get the answer.
