ÔN TẬP TIẾNG ANH 7

I. GRAMMAR
1. So sánh dịnh lượng (Comparisons of quantifiers)
-Khi so sánh định lượng nhiều hơn, ta có cấu trúc sau:

S + V + more + countable N + than + N/ pronoun

S + V + more + uncountableN + N/ pronoun

Lựu ý: Theo sau more, chúng ta có thể dùng danh từ đếm được và danh từ không
đếm được
Ex: I have more English books than you. ( Tôi có nhiều sách tiếng Anh hơn bạn.)

-Khi so sánh định lượng ít hơn, ta có cấu trúc sau:

S + V + fewer + cn.N + than + N/ pronoun

S + V + less + unc.N + than + N/ pronoun
Ex:She has less free time than me. ( Cô ấy có ít thời gian rảnh hơn tôi.)

2. Câu hỏi đuôi (Tag- questions)

Câu hỏi đuôi là câu hỏi ngắn được thêm vào cuối câu trần thuật (statements).Câu hỏi
đuôi được thành lập bằng 1 trợ động từ hoặc động từ to be và 1 đại từ nhân xưng
(chỉ chủ ngữ của câu).

1. Câu trần thuật khẳng định + câu hỏi đuôi phủ định (Positive statement +
negative question tag)
Ex: It is cold, isn’t it?

2. Câu trần thuật phủ định + câu hỏi đuôi khẳng định (Negative statement +
positive question tag)
Ex: It isn’t cold, is it?

- Nếu câu trần thuật có trợ động từ (hoặc động từ to be) thì động từ này được lặp
lại trong câu hỏi đuôi.
Ex: Sally can speak French, can’t she?
You haven’t lived here long, have you?

- Nếu câu trần thuật không có trợ động từ, dùng trợ động từ do trong câu hỏi
đuôi.
Ex: You like oysters, don’t you?
Henry gave you a watch, didn’t he?

- Câu hỏi đuôi khẳng định được dùng sau câu có các từ phủ định: no, nothing,
nobody, never, seldom, rarely, hardly, scarely, little.
Ex: You never go jogging, do you?

Một số trường hợp đặc biệt

- Câu hỏi đuôi của I am là aren’t I?
Ex: I’m late, aren’t I?
- Câu hỏi đuôi sau câu mệnh lệnh khẳng định (affirmative imperatives) là will you?
would you? can you? và could you? won’t you? có thể được dùng để mời ai làm điều gì
một cách lịch sự.
- Sau Let’s…..(trong câu gợi ý…) dùng shall we?
Ex: Let’s have a party, shall we?
- There có thể làm chủ ngữ trong câu hỏi đuôi.
Ex: There’s something wrong, isn’t there?
- It được dùng thay cho nothing và everything. They được dùng thay cho nobody,
somebody, và everybody.
- It được dùng thay cho this/ that. They được dùng thay cho these/ those. Ex:
This is your pen, isn’t it?
Ex: These aren’t your books, are they?

Cách trả lời câu hỏi đuôi.

Ex: You’re going today, aren’t you? Yes, I am.

She isn’t your sister, is she? No, she isn’t.
