Travel 1

travel 11 terms 15 questions TOEIC Part 5, Part 6, Part 7

Travel is the most frequent TOEIC setting of all, and it is also where American and British usage diverge most: vacation against holiday, accommodations against accommodation, round-trip against return. The test is written in American English. This lesson mixes wrong words, wrong forms and misspellings, which is how the options in Part 5 are actually built.
