Emphasizing English vocabulary, especially as words are used within the context of business, industry, and communications, this book has been designed especially for TOEIC test-takers. In fact, it can be used in virtually any ESL course. Each of the book's 50 lessons focuses on a specific TOEIC subject -- for instance, transportation, business contracts, marketing, banking, office equipment, and personnel, to name only a few. Still other lessons concentrate on expanding English vocabulary as it relates to cultural events and activities -- movies, theater, museums, music, art, and the like. Each short lesson features 12 target words with definitions. Word presentation is followed by activities in a TOEIC format in which the new vocabulary is used in varied contexts. A quiz follows every five lessons to test the reader's skill in understanding and using the new words.
