Các em học sinh thân mến!
Các em đang cầm trên tay một trong những cuốn sách hay nhất và quan trọng
nhất trong quá trình học tiếng Anh của mình. Đó là cuốn sách Bài tập cuối tuần tiếng
Anh lớp 8 tập 1. Cuốn sách được ra đời với bao công sức của tác giả, giáo viên giàu
kinh nghiệm giảng dạy tiếng Anh. Cuốn sách được chia theo các đơn vị bài học và
bám sát chương trình học tập trên lớp của các em. Đây là một tài liệu cực kỳ hữu ích
nhằm giúp các em ôn tập, củng cố và nâng cao vốn tiếng Anh của mình.
Trong mỗi đơn vị bài học, chúng tôi đều trình bày đầy đủ các nội dung sau:
-Phần lý thuyết: Tập trung vào trọng tâm ngữ pháp của bài học
- Phần Week 1: Tập trung vào việc thực hành kiến thức ngôn ngữ của các em.
Các em sẽ được rèn luyện ngữ âm, từ vựng và ngữ pháp/ mẫu câu trong phần này.
- Phần Week 2: Phần này giúp rèn luyện và hoàn thiện cả 4 kỹ năng giao tiếp:
Nghe - Nói - Đọc - Viết tiếng Anh của các em.
Kết hợp với các nội dung trong sách là đĩa CD phát âm chuẩn tiếng Anh của
người bản ngữ. Chúng tôi tin rằng CD này sẽ hỗ trợ các em rất nhiều trong quá trình
rèn luyện kỹ năng giao tiếp tiếng Anh của mình.
Lời cuối cùng, chúng tôi mong muốn được gửi lời cảm ơn chân thành nhất tới
độc giả, tới các em học sinh, các bậc phụ huynh và các quý thầy cô đã giúp đỡ chúng
tôi rất nhiều trong quá trình biên soạn tài liệu quý báu này. Chúng tôi cũng mong

WHAT WOULD YOUR LIFE BE LIKE WITHOUT A PHONE?
It is true that everything works at a fast pace these days, due to the quick access we
have to pretty much anything and anyone. For example, you can contact someone who 1. Where is the scene?

2. How many people are there?
contrary, can we be too connected to the people who are close to us? An argument
arose about the fact that it is easier to message someone from your sofa than to meet ..............................................................................................................................

important to have and if you are not going to put effort into real-life communication,
..............................................................................................................................
then you are not going to progress in this ability.
5. What would you like to be in the future?
Another point was that phones are very handy to look up something that you are
..............................................................................................................................
wondering about. For example, if you don’t know a word in another language, you can
quickly and simply access a translator to help you out. This can be very helpful in many 6. Would you like to be a scientist? Why or why not?
situations, but it can also make a person dependent on the internet to help with ..............................................................................................................................
anything. This factor slightly takes away the diversity of learning a language and Exercise 6: Describe the picture in front of the class. (oral presentation)
