There are four main groups of state verbs that

are rarely used in continuous tenses
Verbs of the mind and thinking:
Believe; think; assume; consider; understand; suppose…
Verbs of emotion:
Like; love; detest; hate; hope; prefer; wish; want…
Verbs of having and being:

Belong; own; cost; seem; appear; need; have…
Verbs of the senses:

See; hear, taste; smell
Some of these verbs can be used in continuous tenses when the

verb expresses an activity, not a state. However, the meaning changes
slightly.

Compare the use of simple and continuous tenses in the following
pairs of sentences:
Ex: I think it’s a great idea. (‘Think’ as opinion → a state)

He’s thinking of emigrating. (“Think” as mental process → an
activity)
I see what you mean. (“See” → meaning “understand”)

TRONG TRƯỜNG HỢP KHÔNG CẦN CÓ PHÓ TỪ CHỈ THỜI

GIAN
Như chúng ta đã biết, thì quá khứ đơn phải được dùng với một phó từ
chỉ thời gian quá khứ xác định. Tuy nhiên, với những trường hợp sau đây,
thì quá khứ đơn không cần có phó từ chỉ thời gian đi kèm:
Khi thời gian của hành động có thể được hiểu ngầm từ một
điều khác hoặc từ kiến thức lịch sử.
Ex: _ This time last year, I was in Paris.
_ How curious! I was there too.
(Thời gian của câu nói thứ hai được hiểu ngầm từ câu nói thứ nhất )
_ Lincoln freed the slaves in America.
(Lincoln đã giải phóng các nô lệ ở Mỹ)
Thời gian của hành động cũng thường được hiểu ngầm thông
qua sự đề cập đến nơi mà hành động đó xảy ra :
Ex: _ I ate spagetti in Rome.
Khi thì hiện tại hoàn thành đã được sử dụng trước:
Ex: James has been to Rome. He was received by several
famous people.
(James đã từng đến La Mã. Anh đã được nhiều người nổi tiếp đón
tiếp)
Khi thì quá khứ đơn đã được dùng trong mệnh đề trạng ngữ chỉ

thời gian:
Ex:
She learned the piano when she was at schook.
( Mệnh đề chỉ thời gian )Your son has been expelled because he threw an
inkpot at the master.
( Con trai ông đã bị đuổi học vì nó đã ném bình mực vào thầy giáo )
Trong 2 câu trên, “learned” được dùng thì quá khứ vì nhờ “when
she was at school” là mệnh đề trạng ngữ chỉ thời gian, nhưng “was
expelled” không được dùng thì quá khứ (trừ khi thời gian được hiểu
ngầm) vì “because he threw an inkport …” Không phải là mệnh đề trạng
nữ chỉ thời gian.

Sự phối hợp giữa các Thì

(THE SEQUENCES OF TENSES)
I. Sự phối hợp các thì :
1. Simple Present - Be going to

Ex : He says he is going to do it.
2. Simple Present – Simple Future

Ex : I think it will rain.
3. Simple Present – Simple Present

Ex : He always works so hard and he always feels so tired.
4. Simple Present – Present Perfect

Ex : 1. I find that you have made a lot of mistakes in the essay.
2. I have worked hard so I am very tired.
5. Present Continuous – Simple Present

Ex :. I am staying at home because I am ill.

7. Simple Past – Past Continuous
21
- Một hành động đang xảy ra trong quá khứ thì bị một hành động
khác “chen ngang ” (khi đang... thì bỗng...).
S1 + was/were + V_ing + WHEN + S2 + P2

Ex : I was
watching TV when she came home / When she came home,
I was watching television.
S1 + P2 + WHEN + S + was/were + V_ing

Ex : It rained when I was going home this morning
- Hành động nào bắt đầu trước và đang diễn ra thì dùng tiếp diễn,
còn hành động chen ngang thì dùng quá khứ đơn.
- Nhưng chú ý 1 điều khi hành động diễn ra trước và đang diễn ra
đó quá ngắn ta có thể chia luôn nó ở quá khứ đơn
Ex : When I went to the door, the phone rang
(khoảng cách từ chỗ đó đến cái cửa rất ngắn, nên hành động của
người này tuy là đang đi nhưng nó diễn ra rất nhanh)
8. Past Continuous - Past Continuous

- Hai hành động cùng đồng thời xảy ra trong quá khứ. Trong trường
hợp này, mẫu câu sau được áp dụng:
S1 + was/were + V-ing + WHILE + S2 + was/were + V-ing

Ex : Martha was watching television while John was reading a book.
Or: While John was reading a book, Martha was watching television.
- Cấu trúc sau đây cũng đôi khi được dùng nhưng không thông dụng
bằng hai mẫu trên, ít khi gặp và ko nên dùng: While John was
reading a book, Martha watched television.
9. Simple Past – Past Perfect

- Thời quá khứ hoàn thành thường được dùng với 3 phó từ chỉ thời
gian là: after, before và when.
- Hành động nào xảy ra trước dùng thì Quá khứ hoàn thành, hành
động xảy ra sau dùng Quá khứ đơn
S1 + V1 (Simple past) + AFTER + S2 + V2 (Past perfect)

Ex : John went home after he had gone to the store
S1 + V1 (Past perfect) + BEFORE + S2 + V2 (Simple

past)
Ex : John had gone to the store before he went home
AFTER + S1 + V1 (Past perfect), S2 + V2 (Simple past)

Ex : After John had gone to the store, he went home.
22
BEFORE + S1 + V1 (Simple past), S2 + V2 (Past perfect)
Ex : Before John went home, he had gone to the store
- Phó từ when có thể được dùng thay cho after và before trong cả 4

mẫu trên mà không làm thay đổi ý nghĩa của câu. Chúng ta vẫn biết
hành động nào xảy ra trước do có sử dụng quá khứ hoàn thành.
Ex : The police came when the robber had gone away.
10. Present Perfect - Simple Past

S1 + V1 (Present Perfect) + SINCE + S2 + V2 (Simple Past)
Ex : I have taught at this school since I moved to Bristol
11. Simple Future – Present Perfect

- Tương như như phần 9: Hành động sẽ xảy ra trước dùng Hiện tại
hoàn thành, hành động sẽ xảy ra saudùng Tương lai đơn
Ex : I shall go home after I have finished my exercises
12. Future Perfect – Present Simple

Ex : I will have finished the course by the time the semester ends
II. Một số lưu ý :
1. Thì hiện tại hoàn thành thường được dùng với một số cụm từ chỉ
thời gian như sau:
+ Now that... (giờ đây khi mà...)
Ex : Now that you have passed the TOEFL test successfully, you can
apply for the scholarship.
+ Một số phó từ như till now, untill now, so far (cho đến giờ):
Những cụm từ này có thể đứng đầu câu hoặc cuối câu.
Ex : So far the problem has not been resolved.
+ Recently, lately (gần đây) những cụm từ này có thể đứng đầu
hoặc cuối câu.
Ex : I have not seen him recently.
+ Before đứng ở cuối câu.

Ex : I have seen him before.
2. Phân biệt cách dùng giữa Hiện tại hoàn thành và Hiện tại
hoàn thành tiếp diễn:
- Present Perfect: Hành động đã chấm dứt ở hiện tại do đó đã có

kết quả rõ rệt.
Ex : I've waited for you for half an hour.
Tôi chờ khoảng nửa giờ rồi nhưng giờ thì hết chờ rồi
- Present Perfect Progressive: Hành động vẫn tiếp diễn ở hiện

tại, có khả năng lan tới tương lai do đó không có kết quả rõ rệt.
23
Ex : I've been waiting for you for half an hour.
` Tôi đã chờ, đang chờ và sẽ tiếp tục chờ,chả bik là khi nào mới
thôi chờ

His car runs as fast as a race car.
Nếu là câu phủ định, as thứ nhất có thể thay bằng so.

Henry’s watch is far more expensive than mine.

That movie we saw last night was much more interesting than the one on TV.
She dances much more artistically than her predecessor.

Danh từ cũng được dùng để diễn đạt phép so sánh ngang bằng hoặc
hơn/kém. Chú ý dùng tính từ bổ nghĩa đúng với danh từ đếm được hoặc
không đếm được.

They have as few classes as we.
Before payday, I have as little money as my brother.
I have more books than she.

Khi so sánh một người/ một vật với tất cả những người hoặc vật khác phải
thêm else sau anything/anybody...
He is smarter than anybody else in the class.
Lưu ý:
 Đằng sau as và than của các mệnh đề so sánh có thể loại bỏ chủ ngữ nếu nó
trùng hợp với chủ ngữ thứ nhất, đặc biệt là khi động từ sau than và as ở dạng
bị động. Lúc này than và as còn có thêm chức năng của một đại từ quan hệ
thay thế.
Their marriage was as stormy as had been expected
(Incorrect: as it had been expected).
He worries more than was good for him.
(Incorrect: than it/what was good for him).
 Các tân ngữ cũng có thể bị loại bỏ sau các động từ ở mệnh đề sau THAN và
AS:
Don’t lose your passport, as I did last year.
(Incorrect: as I did it last year).
They sent more than I had ordered.
(Incorrect: than I had ordered it).
She gets her meat from the same butcher as I go to.
(Incorrect: as I go to him).
3. Phép so sánh không hợp lý
Khi dùng câu so sánh nên nhớ các đối tượng dùng để so sánh phải tương
đương nhau: người với người, vật với vật. Các lỗi thường mắc phải khi sử
dụng câu so sánh không hợp lý được chia làm 3 loại: sở hữu cách, that of và
those of.
45
Sở hữu cách:
Incorrect: His drawings are as perfect as his instructor.

(Câu này so sánh các bức tranh với người chỉ dẫn)
Correct: His drawings are as perfect as his instructor’s.
(instructor's = instructor's drawings)
4. So sánh bội số
So sánh bội số là so sánh: bằng nửa (half), gấp đôi (twice), gấp ba (three
times),...
Không được sử dụng so sánh hơn kém mà sử dụng so sánh bằng, khi so
sánh phải xác định danh từ là đếm được hay không đếm được, vì đằng trước
chúng có many/much
This encyclopedy costs twice as much as the other one.

Jerome has half as many records now as I had last year.
At the clambake last week, Fred ate three times as many oysters as Bob.
Các lối nói: twice that many/twice that much = gấp đôi ngần ấy... chỉ được
dùng trong khẩu ngữ, không được dùng trong văn viết.
We have expected 80 people at that rally, but twice that many showned
up. (twice as many as that number).
5. So sánh kép
Là loại so sánh với cấu trúc: Càng... càng... Các Adj/Adv so sánh phải đứng ở
đầu câu, trước chúng phải có The. Dùng một trong hai mẫu câu sau đây để so
sánh kép:
The + comparative + S + V + the + comparative +

S+V
The hotter it is, the more miserable I feel.

(Trời càng nóng, tôi càng thấy khó chịu)
The sooner you take your medicince, the better you will feel.
(Anh càng uống thuốc sớm bao nhiêu, anh càng cảm thấy dễ chịu bấy nhiêu)
The bigger they are, the faster they fall.
(Chúng càng to bao nhiêu thì càng rơi nhanh bấy nhiêu)
The more + S + V + the + comparative + S + V
46
The more you study, the smarter you will become.
(Càng học, anh càng thông minh hơn)
The more I look into your eyes, the more I love you.
(Càng nhìn vào mắt em, anh càng yêu em hơn)
Sau The more ở vế thứ nhất có thể thêm that nhưng không mẫu câu này
không phổ biến.
The more (that) you study, the smarter you will become.
Trong trường hợp nếu cả hai vế đều có chủ ngữ giả it is thì có thể bỏ chúng đi
The shorter (it is), the better (it is).
Hoặc nếu cả hai vế đều dùng to be thì bỏ đi
The closer to the Earth’s pole (is), the greater the gravitational force (is).
6. So sánh bậc nhất (từ 3 đối tượng trở lên)
Dùng khi so sánh 3 người hoặc 3 vật trở lên, một trong số đó là ưu việt nhất
so với các đối tượng còn lại về một mặt nào đó. Để biến tính từ và phó từ
thành dạng so sánh bậc nhất, áp dụng quy tắc sau:
 Đối với tính từ và phó từ ngắn: thêm đuôi -est.
 Đối với tính từ và phó từ dài: dùng most hoặc least.
 Trước tính từ hoặc phó từ so sánh phải có the.
 Dùng giới từ in với danh từ số ít đếm được.
 Dùng giới từ of với danh từ số nhiều đếm được.
John is the tallest boy in the family.

Deana is the shortest of the three sisters.
These shoes are the least expensive of all.
Of the three shirts, this one is the prettiest.
Sau cụm từ one of the + so sánh bậc nhất + noun phải đảm bảo chắc chắn
rằng noun phải là số nhiều, và động từ phải chia ở số ít.
One of the greatest tennis players in the world is Johnson.

Kuwait is one of the biggest oil producers in the world.
47
Các phó từ thường không có các hậu tố -er hoặc –est. Chúng được chuyển
sang dạng so sánh tương đối bằng cách thêm more hoặc less; sang dạng so
sánh tuyệt đối bằng cách thêm most hoặc least phía trước chúng.
Sal drove more cautiously than Bob.

Joe dances more gracefully than his partner.
That child behaves most carelessly of all.
Một số các tính từ hoặc phó từ mang tính tuyệt đối thì không được dùng so
sánh bậc nhất, hạn chế dùng so sánh hơn kém, nếu buộc phải dùng thì bỏ
more, chúng gồm: unique/ extreme/ perfect/ supreme/ top/ absolute/prime/
primary
His drawings are perfect than mine.
TAG-QUESTION
(Câu hỏi đuôi)
Công thức : S + V + O , [] + ĐẠI TỪ ?
Trong đó :
Đại từ : Lấy chủ từ câu đầu đổi thành đại từ

Đàn ông ---> he
Đàn bà ----> she
Vật (số ít ) --- -> it
There --- -> there
This --- -> it
That --- -> it
These --- -> they
Those --- -> they
Số nhiều ----> they
Các đại từ như : they, he she ... thì giữ nguyên

[] : nhìn ở câu đầu nếu có động từ đặc biệt thì chuyển thành [] nếu
không có thì mựơn trợ động từ do.does ,did
Những động từ đặc biệt có thể chuyển ra vị trí [] mà không cần phải
mượn trợ động từ là:
- is, am, are, was, were
- wil, would
- can, could
- may, might
- should
- had ( better)
- have, has, had ( + p.p) - lưu ý nếu phía sau không có p.p ( cột 3)
thì không được xem là động từ đặc biệt
- Nếu câu đầu có NOT, hoặc các yếu tố phủ định như : never, rarely,
no, hardly ...., thì [] không có NOT, nếu câu đầu không có
48
NOT thì [] có NOT
CHÚ Ý:
I am --------> Aren't I ? (nhưng nếu là : I am not ... thì lại

dùng : am I ? )
Let's ....--------> shall we?
Nobody, no one, everyone, everybody ...-----------------> [] they?
Someone, somebody -------------> [] he
- Câu mệnh lệnh (không có chủ từ ) -------> Will you ?
Ex:
Lan can go, can't she? (Động từ đặt biệt đem can ra sau)
Tom likes it, doesn't he? (Không có động từ đặt biệt nên mượn trợ
động từ does)
the dogs won't run, will they? (Câu đầu có not nên câu sau không có
not)
Go out with me, will you? (Câu mệnh lệnh)
Don't take it, will you? (Mệnh lệnh, dù có not hay không cũng
dùng will you)
I am a student, aren't I?
MỘT SỐDẠNG ĐẶC BIỆT

1) Câu đầu là I WISH:
Dùng MAY
Ex: I wish to study English, may I ?
2) Chủ từ là ONE:
Dùng you hoặc one
Ex: One can be one’s master, can’t you/one?

3) Câu đầu có MUST:
Must có nhiều cách dùng cho nên tùy theo cách dùng mà sẽ có câu
hỏi đuôi khác nhau
*Must chỉ sự cần thiết: => dùng needn’t
Ex: They must study hard, needn’t they?
49
*Must chỉ sự cấm đoán: => dùng must
Ex: You mustn’t come late, must you?
*Must chỉ sự dự đoán ở hiện tại: => dựa vào động từ theo sau must
Ex: He must be a very intelligent student, isn’t he?
(anh ta ắt hẳn là 1 học sinh rất thông minh, phải không ?)
* Must chỉ sự dự đoán ở quá khứ (trong công thức must +have+

p.p): => dùng [ ] là have/has
Ex: You must have stolen my bike, haven’t you?
(bạn chắc hẵn là đã lấy cắp xe của tôi, phải không?)
4) Let đầu câu:
Let đầu câu có nhiều dạng cần phân biệt:
* Let trong câu rủ (let’s): dùng shall we ?
Ex: Let’s go out, shall we?
* Let trong câu xin phép (let us /let me): dùng will you?
Ex: Let us use the telephone, will you?
Let me have some drink, will you?
* Let trong câu đề nghị giúp người khác (let me): dùng may I?
Ex: Let me help you do it, may I?
5) Câu cảm thán:
Lấy danh từ trong câu đổi thành đại từ, [ ] dùng is, am, are
Ex: What a beautiful dress, isn’t it?
What a stupid boy, isn’t he?
How intelligent you are, aren’t you?
6) Câu đầu có I + các động từ sau: think, believe, suppose, figure,

assume, fancy, imagine, reckon, expect, seem, feel + mệnh đề phụ:
50
Lấy mệnh đề phụ làm câu hỏi đuôi.
Ex: I think he will come here, won’t he?
I don’t believe Mary can do it, can she? (lưu ý mệnh đề chính

có not thì vẫn tính như ở mệnh đề phụ)
Cùng mẫu này nhưng nếu chủ từ không phải là I thì lại dùng mệnh
đề đầu làm câu hỏi đuôi.
Ex: She thinks he will come, doesn’t she?
7) Câu đầu có It seems that + mệnh đề
Lấy mệnh đề làm câu hỏi đuôi.
Ex: It seems thatyou are right, aren’t you?
8) Chủ từ là mệnh đề danh từ:
Dùng it
Ex: What you have said is wrong, isn’t it?
Why he killed himself seemsa secret, doesn’t it?
