Relative Clause: Mệnh đề quan hệ 1/ Relative Clause: Mệnh đề quan hệ (mệnh đề tính từ) bắt đầu bằng các đại từ quan hệ: who, whom, which, that, whose hay những trạng từ quan hệ: why, where, when.

Tất cả các đại từ quan hệ được sử dụng trong mệnh đề xác định. Nondefining relative clause: Là mệnh đề cung cấp thêm thông tin về người hoặc vật, không có nó thì câu vẫn đủ nghĩa. EX: The man who helped us lives here
Defining relative clause Lan,who lives opposite my house,is working in the factory Nondefining relative clause 3/ Relative Pronoun: đại từ quan hệ Là từ dùng thay thế cho danh từ đứng trước nó nhằm tránh lặp lại danh từ đó lần nũa ở mệnh đề tính ngữ phía sau. Nó luôn được đặt ngay đầu mệnh đề tính ngữ và ngay sau danh từ mà nó thay thế. Eg: Người đàn ông mà tôi gặp sáng nay là bố tôi. Mệnh đề tính ngữ: vì mệnh đề này bổ nghĩa cho danh từ “người đàn ông. Trong tiếng Anh, ta sẽ dùngcác liên hệ đại từ sau để thay cho danh từ: Who: thay danh từ chỉ người Whom: thay danh từ chỉ người, làm tân ngữ trong mệnh đề tính ngữ Which thay danh từ chỉ vật, làm chủ ngữ hoặc tân ngữ trong mệnh đề tính ngữ That: thay cho who, whom, which trong mệnh đề tính ngữ không xác định ( khi có dấ u , ta không dùng that) Whose: thay danh từ chỉ người,hoặc vật chỉ sở hữu cho danh từ trong mệnh đề tính ngữ Where: thay cho danh từ làm trạng ngữ chỉ địa điểm trong mệnh đề quan hệ When: thay cho danh từ làm trạng ngữ chỉ thời gian trong mệnh đề quan hệ.

Read the passage again, and then decide whether the sentences are true (T) or false (F). Space Tourism means ordinary members of the public buying tickets to travel to space and back. Like any other business, once space tourism gets started it will develop progressively. It may go through several phases. Starting with a relatively small-scale and relatively high-priced “pioneering phase”, the scale of activity will grow and prices will fall as it develops. Finally, it will become a mass-market business, like aviation today. During the pioneering phase, customers will be relatively few, from hundreds per year to thousands per year; prices will be high, $50,000 and up; and the service will be nearer to “adventure travel” than to luxury hotel-style. The mature phase will see demand growing from thousands of passengers per year to hundreds of thousands per year. Tickets to orbit will cost less and flights will depart from many different airports. Orbital facilities will grow from being just clusters of modules to large structures constructed in orbit for hundreds of guests, permitting a wide range of orbital entertainments. During the mass phase, ticket prices will fall to the equivalent of the few thousand US dollars, and the number of customers will be from hundreds of thousands to millions of passengers per year. And aviation is still growing fast at today’s level of 1 billion passengers per year. So there is no reason to suppose that space travel will ever stop growing. There is certainly no limit to possible destinations. T F 1. Space Tourism means ordinary members of the public buying tickets to travel to space 2. During the mature phase, orbital structures made on the Earth will provide a wide range of entertainments. 3. The more space tourism develops, the less aviation grows. 4. Maybe some days in the future, space tourism is as popular as aviation. 5. Space travel will send passengers to destinations that know no limit. IV. Read the following passage and then choose the best option A, B, C or D. OUTER SPACE From far out in space, Earth looks like a blue ball. Since water covers three- fourths of the Earth’s surface, blue is the color we see most. The continents look brown, like small islands floating in the huge, blue sea. White clouds wrap around the Earth like a light blanket. The Earth is shaped like, or a ball. It is 25000 miles around! It would take more than a year to walk around the whole planet. A spaceship can fly around the widest part of the sphere in only 90 minutes.
Even though spaceships have traveled to the Moon, people cannot visit the Moon without special suits. The Moon has no air and water. Plants and animals can’t live there either. Astronauts first landed on the Moon in 1969. After that, there were six more trips to the Moon. They brought back Moon rocks, which scientists are still studying. There are holes, or craters, all over the Moon’s surface. Scientists believe that meteorites smashed into the Moon millions of years ago and formed the craters. The Sun is the closest star to Earth. A star is a hot ball of burning gas. The Sun looks very big because it is so close. But the Sun is just a medium-sized star. Billions of far-away stars are much bigger than our Sun. The burning gases from the Sun are so hot that they warm the Earth from 93 million miles away! Even though the Sun is always glowing, the night here on Earth is dark. That’s because the Earth rotates, or turns around, every 24 hours. During the day, the Earth faces the Sun. Then we see light. During the night, the Earth turns away from the Sun. Then it faces the darkness of space. Each day we learn more about the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun. 1. Why is blue color we see most when looking at the Earth from outer space? A. Because most of the Earth is covered in land. B. Because the Suns rays make the Earth look blue. C. Because most of the Earth is covered in water. D. Because clouds wrap around the Earth. 2. Scientists believe that meteorites smashed into the Moon millions of years ago and formed the craters. What does ‘formed” mean? A.hit B. made C. broke D. stopped 3. What is a star? A. A star is a hot ball of burning gas. B. A star is a hot ball of gas. C. A star was a luminous ball of gas. D. A star was a luminous ball of burning gas. 4. What causes daylight on Earth? A. A full Moon causes daylight. B. Daylight is caused by the Earth facing away from the Sun. C. The heat of the Suns rays caused day light. D. Daylight is caused by the Earth facing toward the Sun. 5. Which of the following sentences BEST describes the Sun? A. The Sun looks like small because it is so far from Earth. B. The Sun is a ball of burning gases that gives the Earth heat and light. C. The Sun is a small star. D. The Sun isn’t as hot as it looks. V. Read the passage carefully, then choose the correct answer. There is one planet that still fascinates and teases scientists mainly because it doesn’t have an atmosphere to obscure observation, yet it is not big enough for sufficiently accurate telescopic observation. The fact that it is also very close to the sun also makes it difficult for astronomers. However, space telescopes have told US a lot more about Mercury. It is rather similar to Earth’s moon and to Mars. There are mountainous areas dotted with craters and large valleys which are uncratered. The moon’s valleys have fewer cracks and ridges are smoother. Mercury’s valleys are filled with volcanic rocks, similar to on the moon, yet there is no evidence of volcanoes, even extinct ones, on Mercury, as there is on the both Mars and the moon, and of course here on Earth. So, scientists presume the valleys on Mercury were caused by different things, that is to say not by volcanoes, but by very large meteorites, which also caused the cracks in the terrain and left the ridges rough and uneven. More and better photos of Mercury are needed to prove what are at present at best only hypotheses. 1. What is the main topic of this passage? A. The planet, Mercury . B. Observation of planets. C. The Earths moon. D. Astronomers’ difficulties. 2. Why does Mercury still tease scientists? A. Because it has an atmosphere which obscures observation. B. Because it is too close to the sun. C. Because it is too small. D. Because it is difficult for space probes to get close to. 3. What is true about Mercury but not true about the moon or Mars? A. The valleys are filled with volcanic rocks. B. There are no volcanoes. C. The valleys are uncratered. D. There are hilly regions. 4. What does the author imply space telescopes can do better than land-based telescopes? A. Show the volcanoes on Mercury. B. Show the meteorites which hit Mercury. C. Show what caused Mercury syalleys. D. Show more of the planet, Mercury. 5. What can we infer from the passage that astronomers still need to get more detailed observation of Mercury? A. Better and more space telescopes. B. More hypotheses. C. Larger space telescopes. D. More ways to prove hypotheses. VI. Read the passage and decide which answer (A, B, C or D) best fits each space. The role of men in American society is changing with more women going to college, and obtaining careers, men are playing more untraditional roles at home.

Read the passage and choose the correct answer A, B, C or D for each question. Men have played a significant role in American society as the main breadwinner, and protector of the family. But the traditional role of men has slowly been transferred to women. Society is changing with women going to college, and gaining jobs. It may even happen in several years’ time when women are given sole earning responsibility in American society as the main breadwinner of the family. That is due in part to women gained working privileges equal to men in the 1970s. Up until the 1970s, men were traditional family breadwinner, while women stayed at home, raised the kids, made dinner every night, cleaned the house, and ran all of the errands. Men went to work every day, making enough money to buy a nice home, buy a new car every so often. Once women were afforded the opportunity to work in the same jobs men once held, men’s more traditional foothold in the workplace was loosened. Women were given bigger jobs with more responsibility, but women take jobs with major responsibly with less pay than men. The role of men in American society is changing with more women going to college, and obtaining careers, men are playing more untraditional roles at home. Women are still giving birth to the kids, but are going to work to earn money to pay the bills, while men are staying home raising the kids, running errands, cleaning, and making dinner. Young children, boys as well as girls, are being raised with dad at home taking care of the kids. Millions of families are also raising their young with mom and dad sharing all of the responsibilities. Today’s role of men in American society is more of a shared role, with a more undefined role. 1. The traditional role of men was__________ A. the foothold in the family. B. raising the children when they were at home. C. the supporter of women. D. the main breadwinner of the family. 2. Women used to stay at home doing housework because__________ A. men brought bread home every day. B. men offered a good life to the whole family. C. men went to work every day. D. men gained equal working privileges. 3. At work, women take__________ A. the same job as men but with less pay. B. all the jobs once held by men. C. the job of delivering bread. D. the jobs for college graduates. 4. The shared role of men nowadays is__________ A. the same as their traditional role. B. cleaning the house, and raising the kids. C. going to work, and doing housework. D. sharing responsibilities with women at work. 5. The word “foothold” in paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to __________ A. a hole in a rock to support your feet. B. achievements at work. C. a strong position at work. D. supporting when climbing. VIII. Read the passage, and choose the correct answer A, B, C, or D for each question. The Changing Role of Women in Filipino Society When many people think of women in Asian culture, they think of a male dominated society where women don’t have as many rights as their male counterparts. However, the Filipino are different. Filipino women have always enjoyed greater equality than women in other nations in Southeast Asia. For starters, Filipino women today serve as heads in the family arrangement, handling the money, acting as religious mentors and even arranging marriages for their sons and daughters. This is a sharp contrast to women being subjugated to their husbands. This does not mean that they have equality everywhere. In the workplace, Filipino women are paid less and more often hired for lower positions even if they are qualified to earn more money. On the home front, women carry a heavy burden in the homes in order to support them financially while men can keep their money and are not obligated to the family. Thankfully, strides are being made to equalize this perception of inequality. Human Resources Managements are seeing to it that a lot more women hold high ranking positions in large and small organizations. More women are holding managerial positions in banks, government, and multinational companies. Even though they have had a female president, involvement in politics is not considered women’s business, and many women still hold to the tradition that a woman cannot take a higher position than her husband. Part of this mindset is due to the effect of colonization on Filipino women.
Like women in many parts of the world, Filipino women have had to fight for their proper place in their society. They have worked hard to extend themselves beyond the confines of their homes and show that they have the strength and power to control business and politics. 1. All of the following are true about Filipino women today EXCEPT that A. they enjoy more equality than others in Southeast Asia. B. they have an important role in politics. C. they arrange marriages for their sons and daughters. D. they help their children with religious matters. 2. The inequality at home is that A. women serve as the head of the family. B. women earn money to support themselves. C. men earn more to support the family and keep the money. D. both women and men work but men keep the money. 3. Women don’t enjoy equality at work because A. they are paid less for the same jobs as men. B. they are always hired for lower positions. C. they don’t have enough qualifications. D. they carry a heavy burden in the homes. 4. Due to the effect of colonization on Filipino women, they A. hole the position of a President. B. hold high ranking in business. C. hold a lower position than her husband’s. D. hold managerial positions in multinational companies. 5. In order to have equality in every sector in society, women have to A. vote a female president. B. fight for their proper place. C. work hard in the family. D. control business and politics. IX. Read the extracts from three people, and decide whether the following statements are true (T) or false (F). Amelia: I’d really like to do the course in performing arts, because I’m very interested in dance, but I have to think about my career. I work as a fashion designer and will need to use a computer to design clothes, so I’m going to the Information Technology course. I can study dance and photography in my free time. Jack: I really like the idea of performing arts course. I’m in a rock band and I love drama and music, but my parents don’t like that idea at all, they don’t think it’s very useful for my career. They want me to do the Information Technology course, but I already know a lot about computers and I don’t want to spend my life working with computers. So I’ve decided to do the leisure and tourism course because travelling is quite interesting, and it makes Mum and Dad happy because it’s a “real job”! Susan: I really liked the idea of the sports studies course - it looks great - working with people and doing something I enjoy, but if I do the part-time course it’s just too long! Four years studying three evenings a week - it’s too much. I look at the childcare course too, but it’s working with really small children, and I prefer older ones. So in the end, I didn’t choose any of these courses, I’m going to look for another sports studies course at a different college, because I want to try to find something shorter. T F 1.

Write a paragraph about the eating habits of a classmate
My friend, Trang, does not have healthy eating habits. She sometimes skips breakfast. When she has it, she usually buys a hamburger and a soft drink from a café near our school. For lunch, her favourite is fried rice and deep-fried chicken. The good thing is that she prefers to have dinner at home. However, she likes eating a lot of rice and fatty pork for dinner. She rarely eats vegetables, but loves fruits. I think Trang should change her diet. First, if she wants to have more energy for the day, she should never skip breakfast. Second, she must reduce the amount of fast food she eats. Also, eating more vegetables would be good for her. She should also eat less rice for dinner. These changes will de nitely keep her t. 2. Write a paragraph about One of the drawbacks of tourism in your area/ city / place One of the drawbacks of tourism is the damage to the environment of a country or area. In the rst place, tourists use a lot of local resources such as water, food, energy, etc., and this puts pressure on the environment. Secondly, there is the problem of pollution. Many cities and towns become overcrowded with tourists, with all their vehicles causing tra c jams as well as air and noise pollution. Another bad e ect of tourism is the destruction of the wildlife in some places. The habitat of wild plants and animals is lost because of the building of tourist resorts, and by visitors’ activities. In short, the development of tourism has bad e ects on the environment. 3.Write a paragraph about the uses of English in everyday life. I use English for di erent purposes in my everyday life. Firstly, English helps me communicate with people all over the world. I have made friends with some students from the UK and Australia. I use English to chat with them about many things. Secondly, English helps me get information and improve my knowledge. Because almost any information is available in English, it is easy for me to get access to all sources of information with my English. Finally, English is useful when I want to go abroad to study. A lot of schools and universities in di erent countries which provide scholarships and courses in English. I am learning English hard to get an IELTS score of 6.5 so that next year I can go to Australia to study. In conclusion, English is useful for me in various ways. 4.Write a paragraph about the roles of teenagers in the future. It is likely that teenagers in the future will be more in charge of their studies. There are at least two reasons for this. Firstly, there is the rise of the Internet, which provides teenagers with various reliable sources of information. It also allows teenagers to develop a large social network with their peers. They can therefore self-search, exchange, and discuss information in order to plan their studies. Secondly, the fact that they start school early and spend a lot of time by themselves when their parents go out to work makes them more independent. Decision-making will become a larger part of their lives. Teens will make decisions concerning their own lives, instead of being told what to do and how to do it. In short, these are the two reasons why teenagers will become more responsible for their studies. 5.Write a paragraph about the qualities one needs to be able to do a certain job. Here are the three most important qualities to be a good teacher. Firstly, being organized and prepared is very important. Great teachers are always organized and prepared for class. Their lessons are clearly structured so that students can easily follow it. An organized teacher can quickly find their teaching materials so that there are minimal distractions in class. Besides, what would your students think when you tell them you misplaced all their homework last night? Secondly is patience. A great teacher is very patient with their students and their parents to deal with the same questions and problems over and over again. You never give up on your students and would try out new ways to help them succeed in school. Finally, a good teacher must love teaching. According to Robert John Meehan, "teachers who love teaching, teach children to love learning." We believe that this is the most important quality that all teachers should have. Teachers should be passionate and love teaching. A teacher who does not enjoy and love their job cannot be effective at all. Also, you can’t expect your students to enjoy the class if you don't enjoy the class.
