TOEFL iBT Flashcards: 12 Task Types, Vocabulary & Strategy
Study the 12 current TOEFL iBT task types with 180 original cards on vocabulary, sentence patterns, task decisions, and reusable strategy cues.
על החפיסה הזו
The TOEFL iBT changed worldwide on January 21, 2026. This independently written English deck gives you a compact active-recall layer for the current format: 180 cards across all 12 Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking task types.
Reviewed for the 2026 TOEFL iBT format.
What the cards ask you to retrieve
- current task name → format and skill being measured
- partial word or short original context → spelling, meaning, or word form
- sentence cue → grammatical structure
- original scenario or common miss pattern → the next useful decision
- communicative purpose → a natural response, email, discussion, or speaking move
- claim, detail, transition, or speaker cue → its role in comprehension
The sequence starts with a map of the 12 tasks, then follows the test order: Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking. Within each task, basic recognition comes before strategy decisions and production cues. Every card has the root toefl-ibt tag and one section tag.
What's deliberately left out
This deck is not a full TOEFL course, test simulation, official preparation product, or promise of a score. It does not reproduce adaptive Reading or Listening, one-play audio, pronunciation assessment, spontaneous speaking, or complete timed writing. Return to current ETS materials for that performance practice.
The deck also excludes copied exam questions, passages, answer choices, scoring rubrics, mark schemes, and curriculum text. It does not mechanically add definition-to-word reverse cards, because isolated reverse recall is often ambiguous; production directions appear only when a specific context or sentence makes the answer useful and clear.
Scope was reviewed against the current ETS test content page and the TOEFL iBT 2026 Test Blueprint and Specifications. Check those official sources for current requirements and later changes.
Facts and official task names are not claimed as original. The CC0 dedication applies to the deck's independently written prompts, answers, examples, organization, metadata, and original generated cover to the extent the contributor can dedicate those elements.
This independent, unofficial deck is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by ETS. TOEFL® and TOEFL iBT® are trademarks of ETS. No official questions, mark schemes, scoring rubrics, curriculum passages, logos, or trade dress are copied.

כרטיס 74

Infer its function from tone and context. You often need the speaker's intent more than a word-for-word definition.

Each speaker's role and goal. Knowing who needs information, approval, or action makes the exchange easier to follow.
כרטיס 81

תשובה
Give each speaker a column. This keeps requests, objections, and decisions attached to the right person.
כרטיס 87

A single sentence may describe an option that the speakers later reject. Follow the whole exchange before choosing the outcome.

כרטיס 95

תשובה
Look for instructions, deadlines, and eligibility conditions. The expected action must fit all three when they are stated.

כרטיס 97
שאלה

Write them in short form as soon as you hear them. Exact logistical details are harder to reconstruct from memory than the main purpose.
כרטיס 98
שאלה
Listen to an Announcement — what evidence should control your answer?

The speaker's actual message. Familiar campus routines may sound plausible, but they are not evidence unless the audio supports them.
כרטיס 99

כרטיס 102

תשובה
Write the term, a short definition, and one example if given. Keep the example attached to the concept it illustrates.
כרטיס 109
שאלה
Listen to an Academic Talk — what makes an inference stronger than a guess?
תשובה
It combines the speaker's claim, supporting detail, and tone. A reasonable fact from outside the talk is still not enough.
כרטיס 110
שאלה
Listen to an Academic Talk — how can context unlock an uncommon word?
תשובה
Use the surrounding definition, contrast, example, or result. Infer the meaning needed in that sentence rather than a complete dictionary entry.

תשובה
Read it through the speaker's point and tone, not word by word. The intended meaning must fit the surrounding explanation.
כרטיס 112
שאלה

כרטיס 113
שאלה
Listen to an Academic Talk — why should you mark a correction or qualification?
תשובה
It may replace or narrow an earlier statement. The revised idea, not the first rough version, is usually the one that matters.
כרטיס 114
שאלה
Listen to an Academic Talk — how can the ending help you check your notes?
תשובה
Use the closing summary or conclusion to confirm the central point. Update your main-idea note if the talk's direction became clearer.
