situation is even worse in the evening when she drives home. All the traffic comes to a halt whenever there
is an accident or a car broken down and blocks an entire lane. In the winter, particularly when it snows, multi-

know that if she is late, she is probably stuck in traffic.

KỸ NĂNG ĐỌC (READING SKILLS)


I - Read the passage and choose the best option to answer each of the following questions.
In the UK, bus journeys are just boring and simply a necessity. This public means of transportation is often
convenient when you live or work in the city centre, as you can avoid traffic jams by moving very quickly
in the bus lanes, and do not have to pay to park the car. After all, though, taking the bus is just a necessary
and tedious part of life: you board the bus, pay the driver and sit down or find a place to stand. Very boring.
In Latin America, however, bus trips can be very lively. For a start, long-distance buses put on films so
that you have entertainment for at least some of the journey. Naturally, local transport does not show films
but drivers usually switch on the radio and that can be a great way to hear new songs and new styles of music.
Therefore, taking the bus doesn’t sound like fun but it is much more exciting than any UK bus journey.
(British Council)
1. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Buses in the UK are very convenient.

II - Read the passage and do the tasks below.


Traffic jams in Viet Nam frequently take place in big cities, such as Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City.
There is no fixed rule for the time a traffic jam to happen. But It is worst during the rush hour when everyone
is in a hurry to get to work or come back home. Apart from peak hours, the time between 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.
and between 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. also witnesses long lines of vehicles, mainly motorbikes. When it rains, the
traffic jam gets more terrible. Taxis are extremely hard to catch or wave during the downpour.

11 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
However, the most annoying thing about the traffic jam is the way people react to it. Most road users ride
their motorbikes on the pavement rather than waiting calmly. Moreover, they constantly use their horns to
hasten riders in the front, even shouting at them from time to time.

1. What is the passage mainly about?
A. the causes of traffic jams in Viet Nam
B. the effects of traffic jams in Viet Nam
C. the reality of traffic jams in Viet Nam

2. When is traffic congestion in Viet Nam the worst?
A. when everyone goes to work

C. between 3 p.m. to 4 p.m.
D. at the weekend
3. It’s difficult to catch a_________during the downpour.
A. bus B. taxi C. train D. motorbike

Part 2: Decide whether the statements are TRUE (T) or FALSE (F).
1. There is a certain time for traffic congestion in Viet Nam. ❑
2. The traffic jam becomes more serious when it rains. ❑
3. To get through a traffic jam, road users usually break traffic rules. ❑

HOW TO MAKE A CARTOON
In a cartoon, instead of taking pictures of real people, the camera takes pictures of drawings. Many
drawings have to be made just to show a simple action. Each drawing is again made only slightly
different from the others. The drawings are then photographed orderly. When everything is complete
and the cartoon is shown, it also looks as though the characters are really moving.

The theory of the animated cartoon was introduced before the invention of the cinema by half a century.
When working to create conversation pieces for Victorian shops, people discovered the principle of
persistence of vision. If drawings of the stages of an action were shown in fast succession, the human eye
would perceive them as a continuous movement.
One of the first commercially successful devices, invented by the Belgian Joseph Plateau in 1832, was the
phenakistoscope, a spinning cardboard disk that created the illusion of movement when viewed in a mirror,
in 1834, William Horner invented the zoetrope, a rotating drum lined by a band of pictures. The Frenchman
Émile Reynaud in 1876 adapted the principle into a form that could be projected before a theatrical audience.
Reynaud became not only animation’s first entrepreneur but also the first artist to give personality and
warmth to his animated characters.

GRAMMAR : YES/NO QUESTIONS

Câu hỏi “yes”/ “no” hay còn gọi là câu hỏi đóng sử dụng be, have, do hoặc một động từ khiếm khuyết. Câu
hỏi Yes/No luôn bắt đầu bằng một trong những trợ động từ trên và có thể trả lời đơn giản là Yes hoặc No,
hay có thể lặp lại câu hỏi.

Lưu ý: Không thể hỏi câu hỏi Yes/No mà không dùng một trong các trợ động từ trên.
He want a car? —> Does he want a car?
You going to eat with us? —> Are you going to eat with us?

Cấu trúc câu hỏi trong tiếng Anh với động từ “To Be”
Dùng động từ be để hỏi về nhân dạng, hình dạng, nơi chốn và những hoạt động và tình huống ở hiện tại
hoặc quá khứ.

– Nhân dạng/Hình dạng


Bạn có thể dùng be + danh từ/tính từ để hỏi về nhân dạng hoặc hình dạng của một người, một nơi chốn
hoặc đồ vật nào đó.
Ví dụ:
Is this interesting? – No, it is not. (Cái này có thú vị không? Không.)
Are these islands part of Vietnam? – Yes, they are. (Những hòn đảo này thuộc về Việt Nam phải không?
Phải.)
Were they happy? – Yes, they were. (Họ có vui không? Có.)

– Địa điểm
Be + cụm giới từ để hỏi về địa điểm hiện tại hoặc quá khứ.
Ví dụ:
Are we at the border yet? – No, we’re not (Chúng ta đã tới biên giới chưa?)
Was his apartment above a store? Yes, it was. (Căn hộ của anh ấy ở phía trên một cửa hàng phải không.)

28 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
– Hoạt động/ tình huống hiện tại
Để hỏi về một hoạt động hoặc tình huống hiện tại, dùng hiện tại tiếp diễn: Hiện tại của be + hiện tại phân
từ (V-ing)

Eg:
Am I going with you and Tom? Yes, you are. (Tôi sẽ đi với bạn và Tom à?)
Is England adopting the euro? No , it isn’t. (Nước Anh có dùng đồng euro không?)
Are we seeing a play tonight? Yes, we are. (Chúng ta sẽ xem kịch tối nay phải không?)

– Những hoạt động/tình huống trong quá khứ


Để hỏi về một hoạt động hay tình huống trong quá khứ, dùng quá khứ tiếp diễn: quá khứ của be + hiện tại
phân từ.
Ví dụ:
Was it raining? – Yes (it was). (Trời đã mưa à? Ừ.)
Were the prisoners rebelling? – Yes (they were) (Những tù nhân đã nổi loạn à? Ừ.)

– Sự kiện trong quá khứ.


Để hỏi về một việc đã xảy ra với ai hoặc với điều gì, ta dùng thể bị động: quá khứ của be + quá khứ phân
từ (V-ed hoặc cột 3)
Ví dụ:
Was he given a reward? Yes (he was). (Ông ấy đã nhận được giải thưởng phải không?)
Was I chosen? No (you weren’t). (Tôi có được chọn không?)

Cấu trúc câu hỏi trong tiếng Anh với HAVE


Ví dụ:
Has your brother left? No (he hasn’t). (Em trai cậu đã đi chưa?)
Has the party started? Yes (it has). (Buổi tiệc đã bắt đầu chưa?)
– Có thể hỏi câu hỏi Yes/No bằng cách dùng “Had”, nhưng đó phải là tình huống rất cụ thể và phải giải
thích cho một bài học ở tương lai.

Cấu trúc câu hỏi trong tiếng Anh với “Do”


Dùng động từ do để hỏi về những sự thật/thực tế về người, nơi chốn hay vật.
Theo sau “do” luôn là chủ ngữ và động từ ở dạng nguyên mẫu không to.
Ví dụ:
Do they smoke? No (they don’t). (Họ có hút thuốc không?)
Did it work? No (it didn’t). (Nó có chạy không?)
Does running hurt your knees? Yes (it does). (Chạy có làm đầu gối bạn đau không?)

Cấu trúc câu hỏi trong tiếng Anh với động từ khuyết thiếu
Dùng động từ khiếm khuyết để hỏi thông tin về những khả năng hoặc những việc chưa chắc chắn. Sau động
từ khuyết thiếu là các động từ nguyên thể không “to”.
Ví dụ:
Can we stay? Yes (we can). (Chúng ta có thể ở lại không?)
Should they stop? No (they shouldn’t). (Có có nên dừng lại không?)
Would you go with me? Yes (I would). (Anh sẽ đi cùng tôi chứ?)

29 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
Chú ý: Khi hỏi câu hỏi với do hoặc động từ khiếm khuyết, động từ chính phải ở dạng nguyên mẫu không
to.
Incorrect Correct

Do you to drink coffee? Do you drink coffee?

Does she to work here? Does she work here?

Can I to go with you? Can I go with you?

Should we to email her? Should we email her?

Tuy nhiên, nếu có hai động từ ở dạng nguyên mẫu sau do, thì động từ thứ hai phải có giới từ to.

Incorrect Correct

Do you want drink coffee? Do you want to drink coffee?

Does she like work here? Does she like to work here?

Did you need go home? Did you need to go home?

Chú ý là có nhiều cách để trả lời câu hỏi Yes/No, đặc biệt là trả lời bằng các dạng rút gọn.
Ví dụ:
Is he busy?
No he isn’t
No, he’s not.
No, he isn’t busy.
No, he’s not busy.
No, he is not busy.

Cấu trúc câu hỏi trong tiếng Anh dạng câu hỏi đuôi
Câu hỏi đuôi là câu hỏi ngắn được thêm vào cuối câu trần thuật. Chúng được dùng để kiểm chứng điều gì
đó có đúng hay không, thường được dịch là ‘phải không’

Cấu trúc: S + V + O, trợ động từ + not + S?

Câu hỏi đuôi được chia làm hai thành phần tách biệt nhau bởi dấu phẩy (,) theo quy tắc sau:

+ Sử dụng trợ động từ giống như ở mệnh đề chính để làm phần đuôi câu hỏi. Nếu trong mệnh đề chính
không có trợ động từ, ta dùng do/ does/ did thay thế.

+ Thì của động từ ở đuôi phải chia theo thì của động từ ở mệnh đề chính.

+ Đại từ ở phần đuôi để ở dạng đại từ nhân xưng chủ ngữ (I, we, you, they, he, she, it)

Ví dụ:
You like reading books, don’t you? (Cậu thích đọc sách, phải không?)
She often goes shopping in this supermarket, doesn’t she? (Cô ấy thường đi mua sắm ở siêu thị này, phải
không?)
They went out together last night, didn’t they? (Tối qua họ đi chơi cùng nhau, phải không?)

30 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
+ Nếu mệnh đề chính ở khẳng định thì phần đuôi ở phủ định và ngược lại.
Ví dụ:
Tom hasn’t got a car, has he? (Tom không có ô tô phải không?)
+ Chủ ngữ là các đại từ bất định chỉ người (everyone / everybody / someone / somebody / anyone /
anybody / noone /
nobody, none, neither…) phần đuôi để là ‘they’
Ví dụ:
Someone has broken your vase, hasn’t they? (Ai đó đã làm vỡ lọ hoa của cậu phải không?)
+ Chủ ngữ là các đại từ bất định chỉ vật (something/ everything/ anything, nothing) phần đuôi để là ‘it’
Ví dụ:
Nothing is impossible, isn’t it? (Không gì là không thể, phải không?)

+ Nếu chủ ngữ trong mệnh đề chính ở dạng phủ định (no one, nobody, nothing) hoặc trong mệnh đề chính
có chứa trạng từ phủ định (never, rarely, seldom, occasionally,…) phần đuôi để ở dạng khẳng định.
Ví dụ:
No one loves me, do they? (Chẳng có ai yêu tôi cả, phải không?)
They never go swimming, do they? (Họ chẳng bao giờ đi bơi phải không?)

Các trường hợp đặc biệt của câu hỏi đuôi:


Cấu trúc đặc biệt:

S + used to + V, didn’t + S?
S + had better + V, hadn’t + S?
S + would rather + V, wouldn’t + S?

+ Với mệnh đề chính I’m… đuôi là aren’t I?


VD: I’m crazy, aren’t I?

+ Câu mệnh lệnh là đuôi ‘will you?’


VD: Close the door, will you?

+ Với Let:
Rủ ai cùng làm gì: Let’s go to the cinema, shall we?
Xin phép làm gì: Let me use your dictionary, will you?
Đề nghị giúp ai làm gì: Let me help you cook dinner, may I?

Nếu câu ở mệnh đề chính có chứa MUST


– MUST chỉ sự cần thiết thì phần hỏi đuôi dùng NEEDN’T.
Ví dụ:
I must work a lot to meet the deadline, needn’t I? (Tôi phải làm việc thật nhiều để kịp hạn nộp, đúng không?)
– MUST chỉ sự cấm đoán nên phần hỏi đuôi ta phải dùng MUST (+ NOT).
Ví dụ:
They must come home late, mustn’t they? (Họ không được về nhà muộn, đúng không nhỉ?)
He mustn’t date with her, must he? (Anh ta không được hẹn hò với cô ấy phải không?)
– MUST chỉ sự dự đoán ở hiện tại: tùy vào động từ theo sau MUST mà ta chia động từ ở phần hỏi đuôi cho
phù hợp.
Ví dụ:
He must come early, doesn’t he? (Chắc là anh ta đến sớm đấy nhỉ?)
The child must be very good, is he? (Thằng bé chắc là ngoan lắm đấy nhỉ?)

31 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
Nếu câu ở mệnh đề chính là câu cảm thán
(WHAT A/ AN…, HOW…, SUCH A/ AN…) thì danh từ trong câu cảm thán sẽ là chủ ngữ chính của câu,
từ đó ta sẽ biến đổi danh từ sang đại từ thích hợp để làm chủ ngữ trong phần hỏi đuôi.
Ví dụ:
What a lovely kitten, isn’t it? (Con mèo kia đáng yêu quá, phải không nào?)
How a handsome boy, isn’t he? (Anh ta đẹp trai, đúng không?)

Nếu câu ở mệnh đề chính có chứa HAD BETTER hoặc WOULD RATHER
Nếu câu ở mệnh đề chính có chứa HAD BETTER hoặc WOULD RATHER, ta xem HAD, WOULD là trợ
động từ và chia phần hỏi đuôi như bình thường.
Ví dụ:
You had better go to school early, hadn’t you? (Con nên đi học sớm, đúng không nào?)
You hadn’t better stay up late, had you? (Cậu không nên thức khuya, phải không nhỉ?)
They’d rather play video games, wouldn’t they? (Họ thích chơi điện tử hơn, đúng không?)

Nếu câu ở mệnh đề chính là câu điều ước thì phần hỏi đuôi sẽ dùng MAY.
Ví dụ:
She wishes she would become beautiful, may she? (Cô ta ước cô ta sẽ trở nên xinh đẹp, phải không nhỉ?)

Nếu chủ ngữ của mệnh đề chính là ONE thì phần hỏi đuôi sẽ có chủ ngữ là ONE/YOU.
Ví dụ:
One can play this song, can’t you? (Một bạn nào đó có thể chơi bài này, đúng không?)

Cấu trúc câu hỏi trong tiếng anh dạng câu hỏi phức

Câu hỏi phức gồm hai thành phần được nối với nhau bằng một từ nghi vấn.

S + V + Question word (Từ hỏi) + S + V


Ví dụ:
Alex still can’t figure out why his teacher gave his bad marks last week. (Alex vẫn chưa thể lý giải tại sao
giáo viên của anh ấy lại cho anh ấy điểm kém vào tuần trước.)
Luna hasn’t know where she will want to go at the weekend. (Luna chưa biết nơi cô ấy muốn đi vào cuối
tuần.)

– Câu hỏi phức là một câu hỏi, áp dụng mẫu câu sau:
Trợ động từ + S + V + Question word + S + V
Ví dụ:
Do you know what he said? (Bạn có biết anh ta đã nói gì không?)
Could you tell me how much it cost? (Bạn có thể cho tôi biết nó trị giá bao nhiêu được không?)
– Trường hợp đặc biệt, từ hỏi là một cụm từ như: Whose + noun, How many, How much, How long, How
often, What time, What kind,..
Ví dụ:
How often do you visit your parents? (Bạn có thường về thăm bố mẹ bạn không?)
Can you tell me how far your school is from your house? (Bạn có thể nói cho tôi biết từ nhà đến trường
bạn bao xa không?)

SKILLS
DO YOU KNOW?
RENEWABLE ENERGY
Renewable energy is often called green energy because it is natural, available and does not have to
be formed like non-renewable energy. The green energy is always there. For example, the Sun
consistently shines, water is abundant, and the winds blow throughout the year. The five types
include solar, energy from the Sun; geothermal, energy from heat within the Earth; hydroelectric,
energy from moving water; biomass, energy from dead plants and finally, energy from the wind.

KỸ NĂNG ĐỌC (READING SKILLS)


I - Read the passage and choose the best option to answer each of the following questions.
Wind is a form of solar energy. Winds are caused by the uneven heating of the atmosphere by the sun.
Wind flow patterns are changed by the earth’s terrain, bodies of water, and vegetative cover. This wind
flow, or motion energy, when “harvested” by modern wind turbines, can be used to generate electricity.
Wind turbines are available in a variety of sizes, and therefore power ratings. The largest machine has
blades that span more than the length of a football field, stands 20 building stories high, and produces
enough electricity to power 1,400 homes. A small home-sized wind machine has rotors between 8 and 25
feet in diameter and stands upwards of 30 feet, and can supply the power needs of an all-electric home or
small business, utilityscale turbines range in size from 50 to 750 kilowatts. Single small turbines, below 50
kilowatts, are used for homes, telecommunications dishes, or water pumping.

1. What is the reason for the existence of wind?


A. atmosphere heated unevenly B. wind flow
C. motion energy D. wind turbines
2.Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor affecting the wind direction?
A. earth’s terrain B. bodies of water
C. vegetative cover D. the Sun
3.The word “variety” is closest in meaning with_________.
A. capacity B. popularity C. diversity D. minority
4.What is the height of the largest wind turbines?
A. as tall as a 20 story building B. between 8 and 25 feet
C. 30 feet D. 50 feet
5. A small home-sized wind machine can produce enough power for_________ .
A. 20 buildings B. a small business
C. 400 homes D. a football field
6. How much power do single small turbines generate?
A. about 30 kilowatts B. more than 50 kilowatts
C. about 750 kilowatts D. less than 50 kilowatts

52 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
II - Read the passage and answer the following questions.
You use energy every day. Energy is the ability to cause change. When you ride a bike, you use energy
from your body to make the bike move. Your parents use heat energy to change the food from raw to
cooked.
Not all energy is used as soon as you get it. Sometimes energy is stored to be used later, stored energy can
be chemical energy stored in a battery or in your body. It can also be potential energy. Potential energy is
based on the position of the object. A soccer player standing ready to kick a ball has potential energy.
Energy of motion is also called kinetic energy. Potential energy converts, or changes into, kinetic energy
when the thing or person begins to move. When the soccer player kicks the ball, kinetic energy is at work.
Energy often changes forms. When you switch on the light, electricity converts into light. When you eat,
chemical energy from your food converts into thermal and mechanical energy that allows you to move and
work.

GRAMMAR
1. Định nghĩa thì tương lai đơn
Thì tương lai đơn trong tiếng Anh (Simple future tense) được dùng khi không có kế hoạch hay quyết định
làm gì nào trước khi chúng ta nói. Chúng ta ra quyết định tự phát tại thời điểm nói.
2. Công thức thì tương lai đơn
Như các loại thì khác, công thức tương lai đơn cũng có 3 loại cấu trúc tương lai đơn.
2.1. Câu khẳng định thì tương lai đơn
Cấu trúc: S + will/shall + V-inf
(He will = He’ll, She will = She’ll, I will = I’ll, They will = They’ll, You will = You’ll..)
Ví dụ:
I will buy a cake tomorrow.
My family will travel in HCM City next week.

57 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
2.2. Câu phủ định thì tương lai đơn
Cấu trúc: S + will/shall + not + V-inf
will+ not = won’t
Ví dụ:
I won’t come your house tomorrow.
I promise I won’t tell this anyone

2.3. Câu hỏi thì tương lai đơn


Cấu trúc: Will/Shall + S + V-inf ?
Câu trả lời:
Yes, S + will
No, S + will not (won’t)
Ví dụ:
Will you marry me? -> Yes, I will /No, I won’t
Shall we dance?

2. Cách dùng thì tương lai đơn


3.1. Diễn tả một quyết định hay một ý định nhất thời nảy ra ở thời điểm nói. Có từ tín hiệu chỉ thời gian
trong tương lai
Ví dụ:
I miss my grandmother so much. I will drop by her house after working tomorrow
(Tôi rất nhớ bà tôi vì thế sau giờ làm ngày mai tôi sẽ đi thăm bà.)
3.2. Diễn đạt một dự đoán không có căn cứ
Ví dụ:
I think she won’t come and join our party.
(Tôi nghĩ cố ấy sẽ không đến tham gia bữa tiệc của chúng ta đâu.)
3.3. Đưa ra lời yêu cầu, đề nghị, lời mời
Ví dụ:
Will you go out for dinner with me? (Bạn có thể đi ăn tối với tôi được không?)
Will you pass me the pencil, please? (Bạn có thể chuyển bút chì cho tôi được không?)
3.4. Diễn đạt lời hứa
Ví dụ:
I promise I will write to her every day. (Tôi hứa tôi sẽ viết thư cho cô ta mỗi ngày.)
My friend will never tell anyone about this. (Bạn tôi sẽ không nói với ai về việc này.)

58 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
3.5. Diễn đạt lời cảnh báo hoặc đe dọa
Ví dụ:
Be quiet or Chinhtao will be angry. (Hãy trật tự đi, không Chinhtao sẽ nổi giận đấy.)
Stop talking, or the teacher will send you out. (Không nói chuyện nữa, nếu không giáo viên sẽ đuổi em
ra khỏi lớp.)

3.6. Dùng để đề nghị giúp đỡ người khác


(1 câu hỏi phỏng đoán bắt đầu bằng Shall I)
Ví dụ:
Shall I carry the bags for you, Dad? (Để con mang những chiếc túi này giúp bố nhé.)
Shall I get you something to eat? (Tôi sẽ mang cho bạn thứ gì đó để ăn, được chứ?)

3.7. Dùng nhằm đưa ra một vài gợi ý


Câu hỏi phỏng đoán bắt đầu bằng Shall we
Ví dụ:
Shall we play football? (Chúng ta chơi đá bóng nhé?)
Shall we have Chinese food? (Chúng ta ăn đồ ăn Trung Hoa nhé.)

3.8. Dùng để hỏi xin lời khuyên


What shall I do? hoặc What shall we do?
Ví dụ:
I have a fever. What shall I do? (Tôi bị sốt rồi. Tôi phải làm gì bây giờ?)
We’re lost. What shall we do? (Chúng ta bị lạc rồi. Chúng ta phải làm gì bây giờ?)

3.9. Dùng trong câu điều kiện loại I, diễn tả 1 giả định có thể xảy ra trong hiện tại và tương lai
Ví dụ:
If she learns hard, she will pass the exam. (Nếu mà cô ấy học hành chăm chỉ thì cô ấy sẽ thi đỗ.

4. Dấu hiệu nhận biết thì tương lai đơn


Dấu hiệu nhận biết tương lai đơn rất đơn giản. Bạn chỉ cần chú ý các ví dụ về thì tương lai đơn là cũng
có thể nhận ra.

4.1. Trạng từ chỉ thời gian


In + (thời gian): trong bao lâu (in 5 minutes: trong 5 phút)
Tomorrow: ngày mai
Next day/ next week/ next month/ next year: ngày tới, tuần tới, tháng tới, năm tới.
Soon: sớm thôi
Ví dụ:
We’ll meet at school tomorrow. (Ngày mai chúng ta sẽ gặp ở trường.)

4.2. Trong câu có những động từ chỉ quan điểm


Think/ believe/ suppose/ assume…: nghĩ/ tin/ cho là
Promise: hứa
Hope, expect: hi vọng/ mong đợi
Ví dụ:
I hope I will live abroad in the future. (Tôi hi vọng sau này sẽ sống ở nước ngoài.)

59 | G R A M M A R 7 . 2 2 0 2 4 - H O P E E N G L I S H C E N T E R
4.3. Trong câu có những trạng từ chỉ quan điểm
Perhaps/ probably/ maybe: có lẽ
Supposedly: cho là, giả sử
Ví dụ:
This picture is supposedly worth a million pounds.
(Bức tranh này được cho là đáng giá một triệu pounds)

5. MỘT SỐ CẤU TRÚC KHÁC MANG Ý NGHĨA TƯƠNG LAI


Ta có thể sử dụng một số cấu trúc ngữ pháp khác có chức năng tương tự thì tương lai đơn, diễn đạt hành
động, sự việc có khả năng xảy ra trong tương lai như:
(to be) likely to + V I believe that technological innovations such as robots are likely to do
(có khả năng/ có thể) most of human’s work in the future.

(to be) expected to + V Artificial intelligence is expected to replace human in most manual
(được kỳ vọng) work in the near future.

6. SỰ KHÁC NHAU GIỮA HAI THÌ


Sự khác biệt giữa thì tương lai đơn và cấu trúc ‘be going to + V’
Điểm khác biệt lớn nhất giữa thì tương lai đơn và cấu trúc ‘be going to + V’ nằm ở khả năng xảy ra của
phán đoán, dự đoán của người nói. Vì vậy:
Sử dụng mẫu ‘be going to + V’ nếu có bằng chứng chứng minh cho phán đoán của mình.
Sử dụng thì tương lai đơn hoặc các cấu trúc thay thế nếu phán đoán của mình chỉ dựa trên cảm nhận chứ
không có bằng chứng hoặc căn cứ rõ ràng.

7. Bài tập luyện thì tương lai đơn


Bài 1. Điền dạng đúng của từ trong ngoặc
1. If it rains, he (stay)____ at home
2. In two days, I (know)_____ my results

KỸ NĂNG

DO YOU KNOW?
SMART ROADS
Over a million people are killed in road traffic accidents every year, with tens of millions injured.
The development of smart roads connected to the Internet of things can greatly help to reduce road
deaths. Because road sensors can communicate with smart cars about the best ways to avoid dangers
or bad road conditions. In the future, wireless battery chargers will be found underneath roads. This
helps to reduce the level of air pollution and the need for fossil fuels to power cars.

technological advancement takes place. We now see cars that drive themselves along predetermined routes.
Trains that will use new magnetic rail systems. An amazing new “hyperloop” train that will speed 800 miles
per hour. All these innovations are not just a form of illusion, they are set to happen within the next coming
years or have already started transporting us. This has increased the level of some industries like vehicle
transport companies and car shipping carriers. It has also made truck production company, and fleet

II - Read the passage and decide whether the statements are TRUE (T) or FALSE (F).
Flying cars aren’t just science fiction anymore. Terrafugia, based in the United States, is developing a
readable aircraft called the Transition. The vehicle has two seats, four wheels and wings that fold up, so it
can be driven like a car. Terrafugia first began to work on the Transition in 2006 and has come closer than
anyone to making the flying car a reality. The company uses special tires and glass that are lighter than
normal automotive ones, which makes it easier for the vehicle to fly. An owner needs to pass a test and
complete 20 hours of flying time to be able to fly the Transition. The Transition can reach around 70 miles
per hour (mph) on the road and 115 mph in the air. On the ground, it gets 35 miles per gallon.

1. The Transition has room for four passengers. ❑


2. Terrafugia has worked on the Transition since 2006. ❑
3. The flying car uses special tires and glass. ❑
4. All drivers of the Transition will only have to pass a test to get a license. ❑

KỸ NĂNG ĐỌC (READING SKILLS)


I - Read the passage and complete the following sentences with ONE or TWO words.
The increased loss of the ecosystems including wetlands, wildlife, rainforests, coral reefs, aquatic life
forms, and grasslands are highly influenced by overpopulation. It is out of overpopulation that activities such
as excessive agriculture, environmental pollution, and extensive land development have become more and
more intensive.
For example, rainforests originally covered 14% of the entire earth’s surface. Today, rainforests only cover
about 6% of the earth’s surface and scientists forecast it may even become less in the next four decades
judged by the current rate of vegetation removal, logging, and deforestation. Besides, due to environmental
pollution, 30% of the ocean reefs have been lost because of acidification and global warming since 1980.
Also, more than half of the original wetlands have been lost.

1. The increased loss of the_________are highly influenced by overpopulation.


2. Excessive agriculture has become more and more_________.
3. _________of the entire earth’s surface was originally covered by rainforests.
4. Rainforests may cover less than 6% of the earth’s surface in the next_________.
5. Acidification and_________have made 30% of the ocean reefs disappear since 1980.

II - Read the passage and decide whether the statements are TRUE (T) or FALSE (F).
Population problems are different in different parts of the world. For example, in many European countries,
the population is getting older. The birth rate is low because many young people have only one child or none
at all. After retirement, they feel lonely and often very poor because they don’t save enough money.
In Africa, the population problems are very different. The population has grown rapidly over the last 40 years
and it has a relatively young population. Many families continue to have large numbers of children to look
after older people and to help on the land.
Asia is the largest and most populous of earth’s continents. It also has the highest population growth rate
today, and its population almost quadrupled during the 20th century. Asian population will continue to grow,
increasing pressure on the region’s natural resources.

1. In Europe, young couples usually have more than two children. ❑
2. Old people in many European countries don’t save enough money for their retirement. ❑
3. The population of Africa has increased rapidly. ❑
4. Asia has the highest population growth rate in the world. ❑
5. The population of Asia will decrease in the next few years.
