TOEIC Part 5 | Incomplete Sentences: Grammar and Vocabulary 01
Problem 1
The marketing team ____ the new campaign next Monday.
View explanation
"Next Monday" points to the future, so the future form "will launch" is the one that fits.
Problem 2
All employees must submit their reports ____ Friday.
View explanation
"By" marks a deadline — no later than that point. "Until" means continuously up to a point, which does not fit here.
Problem 3
The manager was pleased ____ the quarterly results.
View explanation
A set phrase: "be pleased with" something, meaning to be satisfied with it.
Problem 4
____ the heavy rain, the outdoor event was postponed.
View explanation
What follows is a noun phrase ("the heavy rain"), so the prepositional phrase "Due to" is correct. "Because" and "Since" introduce clauses.
Problem 5
The new software is much ____ than the previous version.
View explanation
"Than" calls for a comparative, so "faster" is correct. The comparative of "fast" is "faster" — "more fast" is not used.
Problem 6
Please contact the front desk if you have any ____.
View explanation
A countable noun after "any" is naturally plural, giving "any questions".
Problem 7
The report must be reviewed ____ it is published.
View explanation
Only the conjunction "before" can introduce a clause such as "it is published". "During" and "despite" are prepositions.
Problem 8
Ms. Tanaka is responsible ____ managing the accounting department.
View explanation
A set phrase: "be responsible for" something, meaning to be in charge of it.
Problem 9
Employees are encouraged to ____ the training session.
View explanation
The pattern is "be encouraged to do", so "to" is followed by the base form "attend".
Problem 10
The store offers a full refund ____ customers are not satisfied.
View explanation
The conjunction "if" introduces the clause "customers are not satisfied". "Despite", "because of" and "in case of" all take a noun phrase instead.
