Le changement (2)

changes 10 termes 10 questions TOEIC Part 5, Part 6, Part 7

Là où la première liste décrivait l'évolution des chiffres, celle-ci décrit ce qui arrive aux choses : un contrat révisé, un service restructuré, une activité externalisée, un bureau rénové. Ces verbes reviennent sans cesse dans les parties 6 et 7 du TOEIC, presque toujours au prétérit ou au participe passé — précisément là où le candidat qui ne connaît que l'infinitif perd le point.

Votre tâche

Complétez chaque phrase avec un verbe de la liste. Vous devrez modifier la forme de certains d'entre eux : un prétérit ou un participe passé, par exemple.
