The Reading System
ULTIMATE GUIDE TO THE TOEFL® iBT (2026 Edition)
What's New in the 2026 Edition:
- Complete the Words
- Read in Daily Life
- New 1-6 Scoring Scale
WHAT IS NEW IN THE 2026 TOEFL READING?
The new test is adaptive and streamlined (30 minutes). It requires three specific skills:
- Complete the Words: Filling in missing letters in a paragraph (testing spelling and morphology).
- Read in Daily Life: Understanding emails, schedules, notices, and everyday functional texts.
- Read an Academic Passage: Answering questions on shorter, clearer academic texts.
HOW THIS BOOK HELPS YOU PASS
Most students struggle with morphology (word structure) and spelling, which were not tested in the old version. This book provides a step-by-step system to master these new requirements:
- MASTER “COMPLETE THE WORDS”: Learn to recognize prefixes, suffixes, and roots. We provide extensive drills on word families so you can predict missing letters instantly.
- CONQUER “DAILY LIFE” TEXTS: Stop guessing on emails and forms. Learn how to scan for specific details in notices and schedules.
- UNDERSTAND THE NEW SCORING (1–6): We explain exactly how the 1–6 band system works and how it compares to the old 0–120 scale.
