UNIT 7: RECIPES AND EATING HABITS

QUANTIFIERS
A. THEORY
I. Some/Any
Cả some và any đều được dùng để chỉ một số lượng không xác định khi không thể
hay không cần phải nêu rõ số lượng chính xác
1. Some: một ít, một vài
* “Some” thường được đặt trong câu khẳng định, trước danh từ đếm được (số
nhiều) hoặc danh từ không đếm được.
EX: I want some milk. -                               
 I need some eggs.
* Đôi khi “some” được dùng trong câu hỏi (khi chúng ta mong chờ câu trả lời là
YES. Hoặc được dùng trong câu yêu cầu, lời mời hoặc lời đề nghị.
Ex: Did you buy some oranges?
Would you like some more coffee?                 May I go out for some drink?
2. Any: một ít, một vài
* “Any” thường đặt trước danh từ đếm được (số nhiều) hoặc danh từ không đếm
được trong câu phủ định hoặc nghi vấn.
Ex: Do you want any sugar?                           She didn’t see any boys in her class.
* “Any” được dùng trong mệnh đề khẳng định, trước danh từ số ít (đếm được hoặc
không đếm được) hoặc sau các từ có nghĩa phủ định (never, hardly, scarely,
without….)
Ex: I’m free all day. Come and see me any time you like.
He’s lazy. He never does any work
If there are any letters for me, can you send them on to this address?
If you need any more money, please let me know.
Notes:
- Khi danh từ đã được xác định, chúng ta có thể dùng some và any không có danh
từ theo sau
Ex: Tim wanted some milk, but he couldn’t find any.
or If you have no stamps, I will give you some.
-Các đại từ (something, anything, someone, anyone, somebody, anybody,
somewhere, anywhere…) được dùng tương tự như cách dùng some, any
Ex: I don’t see anything on the table.
Or    Is there anybody in your house now?
Or   I want to do something to help you.
II. Much, many, a great deal of, a large number of, a lot of, lots of…

1
With countable nouns With uncountable nouns

       - many - much

      - a large number of - a large amount of

      - a great number of - a great deal of
      - plenty of - plenty of
      - a lot of - a lot of
      - lots of - lots of
Ex:  I don’t have much time for night clubs.
                                There are so many people here that I feel tired.
                                She has got a great deal of homework today.
                              Did you spend much money for the beautiful cars?
                                There’s plenty of milk in the fridge.
                                There are plenty of eggs in the fridge.
                                A large number of students in this school are good.
                                I saw lots of flowers in the garden yesterday.
                                A large amount of air pollution comes from industry.
- Theo nguyên tắc chung, chúng ta dùng many, much trong câu phủ định và câu
nghi vấn và dùng a lot of, lots of trong câu khẳng định.
EX: Do you know many people here?
Or We didn’t spend much money for Christmas presents. But we spent a lot of
money for the party
Tuy nhiên trong lối văn trang trọng, đôi khi chúng ta có thể dùng many và much
trong câu xác định. Và trong lối nói thân mật, a lot of cũng có thể dùng được trong
câu phủ định và nghi vấn
Ex: Many students have financial problem
There was much bad driving on the road
I don’t have many/ a lot of friends
Do you eat much/ a lot of fruit?
- Notes:
            -Khi trong câu xác định có các từ “very, too, so, as.” thì phải dùng “Much,
Many”. (Không được dùng a lot of, lots of, plenty of)
                        EX:  There is too much bad news on TV tonight.
                               There are too many mistakes in your writing.
There are so many people here that I feel tired.

2
 Very much thường được dùng trong câu khẳng định như một trạng từ, chứ không
phải là từ hạn định
Ex: I very much enjoy travelling.
Or Thank you very much
Many of, much of + determiner/ pronoun
Ex: I won’t pass the exam; I’ve missed many of my lessons.
You can’t see much of a country in a week.
III. Few, A few, Little, A little:
1. Few/ A few: dùng trước các danh từ đếm được số nhiều.
            * FEW: rất ít, hầu như không có (chỉ số lượng rất ít, không nhiều như
mong muốn, thường có nghĩa phủ định)
                        EX: I don’t want to take the trip to Hue because I have few friends
there.
                              They hardly find a job because there are few jobs.
            * A few: Một vài, một ít
                        EX: There are a few empty seats here.
                               You can see a few houses on the hill.
2. Little/ A little: dùng trước các danh từ không đếm được.
            * Little: rất ít, hầu như không có (thường có nghĩa phủ định)
                        EX: I have very little time for reading.
                              We had little rain all summer.
            * A little: một ít, một chút (thường có nghĩa khẳng định )
                        EX: I need a little help to move these books.
                              Would you like a little salt on your vegetables?
NOTES:
- Only a little và only a few có nghĩa phủ định
Ex: We must be quick. We’ve got only a little time (only a little = not much)
Only a few customers have come in (only a few = not many)
- (a) little of/ (a) few of + determiner/ pronoun
Ex: Only a few of the children in this class like math
Could I try a little of your wine?
IV. All, most, some, no, all of, most of, some of, none of:
1. All (tất cả), most (phần lớn, đa số), some (một vài), no (không), được dùng
như từ hạn định (determiner):

All/ most/ some/ no (+ adj) + plural noun/ uncountable noun

Ex: All children are fond of candy. Or Most cheese is made from cow’s milk
There are no rooms available Or All classical music sends me to sleep

3
 2. All of, most of, some of, none of: được dùng trước các từ hạn định (a, an, the,
my, his, this, …) và các đại từ
Ex: Some of those people are very friendly. Or Most of her friends
live abroad.
NOTES:
- Chúng ta có thể bỏ of sau all hoặc half khi of đứng trước từ hạn định (không
được bỏ of khi of đứng trước đại từ
Ex: All (of) my friends live in London. But all of them have been to the meeting
Half (of) this money is mine, and half of it is yours
- Chúng ta thường không dùng of khi không có từ hạn định (mạo từ hoặc từ sở
hữu) đứng trước danh từ. Tuy nhiên trong một vài trường hợp most of cũng có
thể được dùng mà không có từ hạn định theo sau, ví dụ như trước các tên riêng và
địa danh.
Ex: The Romans conquered most of England
- Các cụm danh từ đứng sau all of, most of, some of, … thường xác định (phải có
the, these, those, … hoặc các tính từ sở hữu)
Ex: Most of the boys in my class want to choose well-paid job
- Chúng ta có thể bỏ danh từ sau all, most, some, none nếu nghĩa đã rõ ràng
Ex: I wanted some cake, but there was none left.
Or The band sang a few songs. Most were old ones, but some were new.
V. Every, each
Thường được dùng trước danh từ đếm được ở số ít
Ex: The police questioned every/ each person in the building.
Or Every/ each room has a number
Trong nhiều trường hợp, every và each có thể được dùng với nghĩa tương tự nhau
Ex: You look more beautiful each/ every time I see you
Tuy nhiên every và each vẫn có sự khác biệt nhau về nghĩa
- Every (mỗi, mọi)
Chúng ta dùng every khi chúng ta nghĩ về người hoặc vật như một tổng thể hoặc
một nhóm (cùng nghĩa với all)
Ex: Every guest watched as the President came in.
Or I go for a walk every day
Every có thể được dùng để nói về ba hoặc nhiều hơn ba người hoặc vật, thường là
một số lượng lớn
Ex: There were cars parked along every street in town
- Each (mỗi)
Chúng ta dùng each khi chúng ta nghĩ về người hoặc vật một cách riêng rẽ, từng
người hoặc từng vật trong một nhóm

4
Ex: Each day seemed to pass very slowly
Each có thể được dùng để nói về hai hoặc nhiều hơn hai, thường là một nhóm nhỏ
người hoặc vật
Ex: There are four books on the table. Each book was a different colour

UNIT 9: ENGLISH IN THE WORLD
RELATIVE CLAUSES
A. THEORY

 Một mệnh đề quan hệ được bắt đầu bằng một đại từ quan hệ/ trạng từ quan
hệ ví dụ who, whom, which, that, whose, where, why and when.
 Chúng ta sử dụng các mệnh để quan hệ để đưa ra các thông tin thêm về một
điều gì đó/ người nào đó hoặc xác định điều/ người cụ thể mà chúng ta đang
nói đến. 

Which (sử dụng cho sự vật và con vật)

Whom (sử dụng cho người như là thân ngữ của mệnh đề quan hệ)
When (cho thời gian)
Where (cho nơi chốn)
Why (cho lý do)
Whose (cho sự sở hữu)
That (cho người, các vật, con vật và thời gian)
E.g: The boy who is sitting in the classroom is her son.

 Chú ý: Chúng ta thường sử dụng đại từ quan hệ ‘who’ thay thế cho ‘whom’
(trừ trong ngữ cảnh quan trọng) thậm chí khi đó là tân ngữ của mệnh đề
quan hệ. Tuy nhiên, chúng ta luôn sử dụng ‘whom’ sau giới từ. Trong văn
cảnh trang trọng, chúng ta thường đặt vị trí giới từ ở cuối câu và sử dụng
who.

E.g: This is the man with whom Tom is sharing the room. (trang trọng hơn)
This is the man who Tom is sharing the room with. (cách diễn đạt thông thường)

 Chúng ta có thể thay thế ‘where/ when’ với ‘một giới từ + which’. Trong
ngữ cảnh trang trọng, chúng ta thường đặt giới từ ở cuối câu.

E.g: Da Nang, where/ in which I was born, is one of the most developing cities in
my country.

A. READING
Read the following passage and choose the best answer for each question.
Where will you go on your next vacation? Disneyland? Sea World? Outer space?
That’s right; tourists are now paying big bucks to travel into space with
astronauts! The first space tourist was Dennis Tito, an American businessman. In
2001, he paid about $20 million to ride on a Russian rocket to the International
Space Station. The Space Station circles 220 miles above Earth. Tito stayed on the
station for a week, hanging out with astronauts and eating space food. The latest
space tourist was Anousheh Ansari, an Iranian-born woman from the United
States who went to the Space Station in mid-September 2006.
How safe is space travel? Apart from the risk of crashing, space tourists have
some special things to worry about. Earth’s atmosphere protects us from
dangerous radiation from the sun. Space travelers are exposed to more of the sun’s
rays. But for tourists spending only a few days or weeks in space, the radiation
probably isn’t harmful.
A bigger problem might be space sickness. Without Earth’s gravity to hold them
down, visitors to the Space Station float around inside the craft. It may look like
fun on TV, but it can make first-time space travelers dizzy and sick. Luckily, the
sickness usually wears off quickly. Then space tourists can enjoy their trip and the
amazing view of Earth.
1. Traveling to space _____.
 A. Will be available to everyone
 B. Is not expensive
 C. Will be limited to the very wealthy

23
 D. Will be limited to the very poor
2. While in outer space it is likely that people will _____.
 A. Experience space sickness
 B. Not need space suits
 C. Will get a sunburn
 D. Make side trips to Mars
3. It is probably so expensive to travel to space because_____.
 A. Astronauts want to make a lot of money
 B. Astronaut food is very expensive
 C. Space equipment and fuel is expensive
 D. There are high taxes on space travel
4. This passage is ____.
 A. A poem  B. fiction C. a biography D. non-fiction
5. Why are space travelers exposed to more radiation?
 A. Their spacesuits are too thin to protect them.
 B. They lack protection provided by Earth’s atmosphere.
 C. They stay in the space for such a long time.
 D. They float around inside the craft and have space sickness.
Read the following text and choose the best answer.
Son Doong Cave has become more famous after the American Broadcasting
Company (ABC) aired a live programme featuring its magnificence on ‘Good
Morning America’ in May 2015.
Located in Quang Binh Province, Son Doong Cave was discovered by a local man
named Ho Khanh in 1991, and became known internationally in 2009 thanks to
British cavers, led by Howard Limbert. The cave was formed about 2 to 5 million
years ago by river water eroding away the limestone underneath the mountain. It
contains some of the tallest known stalagmites in the world - up to 70 metres tall.
The cave is more than 200 metres wide, 150 metres high, and nearly 9 kilometres
long, with caverns big enough to fit an entire street inside them. Son Doong Cave
is recognised as the largest cave in the world by BCRA (British Cave Research
Association) and selected as one of the most beautiful on earth by the BBC
(British Broadcasting Corporation).
In August 2013, the first tourist group explored the cave on a guided tour. Permits
are now required to access the cave and are made available on a limited basis.
Only 500 permits were issued for the 2015 season, which runs from February to
August. After August, heavy rains cause river levels to rise and make the cave
largely inaccessible.

That’s right; tourists are now paying big bucks to travel into space with astronauts!
The first space tourist was Dennis Tito, an American businessman. In 2001, he
paid about $20 million to ride on a Russian rocket to the International Space
Station. The Space Station circles 220 miles above Earth. Tito stayed on the
station for a week, hanging out with astronauts and eating space food.
The latest space tourist was Anousheh Ansari, an Iranian-born woman from the
United States who went to the Space Station in mid-September 2006.
How safe is space travel? Apart from the risk of crashing, space tourists have some
special things to worry about. Earth’s atmosphere protects us from dangerous
radiation from the sun. Space travelers are exposed to more of the sun’s rays. But
for tourists spending only a few days or weeks in space, the radiation probably
isn’t harmful.
A bigger problem might be space sickness. Without Earth’s gravity to hold them
down, visitors to the Space Station float around inside the craft. It may look like
fun on TV, but it can make first-time space travelers dizzy and sick. Luckily, the
sickness usually wears off quickly. Then space tourists can enjoy their trip - and
the amazing view of Earth.

The Difference Between Men And Women
Although there is a great deal of variation within each gender, on the
average men and women discuss a surprisingly different range of topics.
According to some studies, women and men ranging in age from seventeen to
eighty described the range of topics each discussed with friends of the same sex.
Certain topics were common to both men and women: work, movies, and
television proved to be frequent topics for both groups. The differences between
men and women were more striking than the similarities. Female friends spent
much more time personal and domestic subjects, relationship problems, family,
health and reproductive matters weight, food and clothing. Men, on the other hand,
were more likely to discuss music, current events, sports and business. Women
were more likely to gossip about close friends and family. By contrast, men spent
more time gossiping about sports figures and media personalities. These
differences can lead to frustration when men and women try to converse with one
another.

A. are unwilling to discuss personal subjects

THE CHANGING ROLES OF THE MODERN FATHER
Fathers used to act as the ‘breadwinner’ of their family, and as the teacher
of moral and religious values. Today, however, those roles are gradually
changing.
Changes in economic roles
More and more women are going out to work and earn money. This
increases the budget of the family. Apart from that, there are various social
welfare programmes which financially assist mothers in supporting their
children. Both these changes have greatly impacted the role of fathers because
they make paternal financial support less essential for many families.
Changes in caregiving roles
With the burden of financial support reduced, and with a changing
concept of a father’s role, modem day fathers tend to be more involved in
children’s caregiving. They are now spending more time and energy on their
children.
Psychological research across families from all ethnic backgrounds
suggests that the influence of a father’s love and attention is as great as that of a
mother’s. Fatherly love helps children develop a sense of their place in the
world, which helps their social and emotional development. Moreover, children
who receive more love from their fathers are less likely to have behavioural
problems.
This trend is still increasing and its effects will become clearer and clearer
in the future, especially in traditionally male-dominated societies.
1. Which of these is NOT the traditional role of a father?
A.financial supporter B. teacher of moral values
C. religious educator D. caregiver
2. Social welfare programmes .
A.support families financially
B.help mothers with domestic abuse
C.educate fathers about their responsibilities
D.train caregivers

39
 3. The influence of a mother’s love is that of the father’s.
A.more important than B. less important than
C. much greater than D. as important as
4. Children who get more fatherly love will behavioural problems.
A. never have any B. have more
C. have fewer D. have a lot of
5. The changing roles of the father will be seen more clearly in
A.ethnic groups
B.developed countries
C.economically independent societies
D.traditionally male-dominated societies
6. The word ‘various’ in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to
A.a few B. no C. many D. only
7. The word ‘paternal’ in paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to .
A.fatherly B. motherly C. social D. private

correct answer to each of the questions that follow.
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 are 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.
