1) CÁC MẪU ĐỀ NGHỊ NGƯỜI KHÁC GIÚP MÌNH:

thường gặp là:
- V1 .... , please.
- Please + V1 ……
- Can you + V1….?
- Could you + V1….?
- Would you please + V1….?
- Would / Do you mind + Ving ….?
Đáp lại các mẫu trên:
Đồng ý giúp thì nói: Không đồng ý giúp thì nói:
- Certainly. I'm sorry. I'm busy.

- Of course. I’m sorry, I can’t.
- Sure. I’m afraid not.
- OK. / All right.
- No problem .

từ thực hiện hành động luôn là “you” ( mệnh lệnh thì “you” được hiểu ngầm)
Ví dụ : " Would you please open the door for me? " ta thấy chủ từ của hành động “ open”
là
“ you” => nhờ người khác làm.
Về các câu trả lời ĐỒNG Ý thì hay dùng : Sure, Of course, .... còn không làm được thì
luôn: Sorry
Riêng mẫu câu - Would / Do you mind + Ving ...... “ mind ” ở đây mang nghĩa "phiền
lòng" tức là hỏi người đó có phiền gì không khi giúp mình. Từ đó ta suy ra câu trả lời là :
không (phiền )

Package holidays, covering a two weeks" stay in an attractive location are increasingly
popular, because they offer an inclusive price with few extras. Once you get to the airport, it
is up to the tour operator to see that you get safely to your destination. Excursions, local
entertainment, swimming, sunbathing, skiing - you name it - it"s all laid on for you. There is,
in fact, no reason for you to bother anything yourselves. You make friends and have a good
time, but there is very little chance that you will really get to know the local people. This is
even less likely on a coach tour, when you spend almost your entire time travelling. Of course,
there are carefully scheduled stops for you to visit historic buildings and monuments, but you
will probably be allowed only a brief stay overnight in some famous city, with a polite
reminder to be up and breakfasted early in time for the coach next morning. You may visit
the beautiful, the historic, the ancient, but time is always at your elbow. There is also the
added disadvantage of being obliged to spend your holiday with a group of people you have
never met before, may not like and have no reasonable excuse for getting away from. As
against this, it can be argued that for many people, particularly the lonely or elderly, the
feeling of belonging to a group, although for a short period on holiday, is an added bonus.
They can sit safely back in their seat and watch the world go by.

29. In spite of its disadvantages, spending a holiday with a group is particularly good
for ____
A. schoolboys and schoolgirls B. the lonely or elderly people

themselves

A.your time always is limited when visiting a place

31. When you go on a package holiday, you don"t have to__________
A. arrange anything yourself B. pay for any extra activities
C. follow the tour schedules D. travel in an organised group
32. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. A coach tour is always exhausting.
B. You are constantly on the move when you are on a coach tour.
C. You get no chance to visit historic buildings in famous cities on a coach tour.

Man is a land animal, but he also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has
served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and convenient way to travel

to many parts of the world. Today, nearly two thirds of the world's population lives within 80
kilometers of the sea coast.
In the modern technological world, the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive.
Resources on land are beginning to be used up. The sea, however, still can be hoped to supply
many man's needs. The list of riches of the sea yet to be developed by man's technology is
impressive. Oil and gas explorations have been carried out for nearly 30 years. Valuable
amounts of minerals existing on the ocean floor are ready to be mined.
Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of
fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental people.
Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm
temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean
currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy.
Technology is enabling man to explore ever more deeply under the sea. The development
of strong, new materials has made this possible. The technology to harvest the sea continues
to improve. Experts believe that by the year 2020 the problems that prevent US from
exploiting fully the food, minerals, and energy source of the sea will be largely solved.

A. fish and oil B. minerals and oil

It is a common saying that we do not fully value a thing until we lose it. We often value
the love and worth of a friend when he has been taken from US by death more than when he
was with US in the flesh; it is only when we have left school or college that we understand
the greatness of our opportunity of education, which has gone forever; and it is the sick and
the ailing who realize the value of good health, when we are young and strong, we cannot
imagine what it is to be weak and ailing. We are so used to vigorous health that we take it for
granted. The organs of our body work so smoothly that we scarcely know we have lungs and
liver, heart and stomach. But when any of these gets upset and gives US pain and sickness,
we learn by bitter experience what an unspeakable blessing it is to be well.
Loss of health makes US miserable, and a burden to ourselves and our friends. It
cripples our efforts so that we cannot accomplish many of the good and great things we might
have done. It spoils our life. What must we do to keep our health?
We must be moderate in eating and drinking and wise in the choice of plain,
wholesome simple food. Gluttony has killed thousands, and strong drink tens of thousands.
We must, when young, get plenty of sleep, which is "nature's sweet restorer", and not try to
burn the candle at both ends. We must live as much as possible in the open air and keep our
rooms well ventilated. We must get sufficient and regular physical exercise, and keep our
bodies clean. And we must avoid bad habits and secret sins as we avoid the devil, and keep
our thoughts clean and our bodies pure. Our ideal must be the sound mind in the sound body.

One of the biggest trends in television in recent years has been the rise of “Reality TV”.
These shows, in which ordinary people are placed in unusual situations and then filmed
without a script, have become some of the highest rating shows on television. Early programs
of this genre, including Big Brother (from the Netherlands) and Survivor (from the United
States), have led to dozens of copycat programs in many different countries. A common
element to many of these programs is that a number of contestants are placed in a closed
environment in which they are filmed 24 hours a day, and every week contestants are thrown
off the show. What is it about these shows that makes them so popular? Perhaps it is because
viewers enjoy watching ordinary people with real emotions being placed in extraordinary,
situations. Or perhaps it is that people are really voyeurs - they enjoy being a spy, looking
secretly into other people’s lives.

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B or C on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions.
My first piece of advice to people who want to start getting fit is don’t buy an
exercise bike. Typically, people who buy them use them for a week or so and then forget
about them. There are effective if they are used regularly but you need to be determined.
Most people will find it much easier to go for a gentle jog around the park.
As well as being easy to do, jogging is also relatively cheap compared to most other
sports. You don’t need to buy expensive clothes if you’re just going running around the
park or on the beach. The main thing is that they’re comfortable, and that they keep you
warm in the winter and cool in the summer. There is one piece of equipment, however,
that you will have to spend time and money on, and that’s your running shoes. Remember
that you are not looking for a fashion item, but for something that will support your feet
and protect you from injury. They can be expensive, but if they are good quality they will
last you a long time. It’s always best to get expert advice, and the best place for that is a
sports shop.
As for the actual jogging, the secret is to start gently, and not to do much at the beginning
– especially if you haven’t had any exercise for a long time. Try a mixture of walking and
running for ten minutes about three times a week at first. Once you are happy doing that
you can then start to increase the amount you do gradually. After a few months you should
hope to be able to run at reasonable speed for twenty minutes three or four times a week.
It’s important that you feel comfortable with whatever you do. If you do, you’ll start to
enjoy it and will probably keep doing it. If it makes you feel uncomfortable, you’ll
probably stop after a short time and return to your bad habits. In any case, training too hard
is not very effective. Research has shown that somebody who exercise for twice as long as
or twice as hard as another person doesn’t automatically become twice as fit.

One of the most urgent environmental problems in the world today is the shortage of
clean water. Having clean drinking water is a basic human right. However, acid rain, industrial
pollution and garbage have made many sources of water undrinkable.
Lakes, reservoirs and even entire seas have become vast pools of poison. Lake Baikal in
Russia is one of the largest lakes in the world. It contains a rich variety of animals and plants,
including 1,300 rare species that do not exist anywhere else in the world. Yet, they are being
destroyed by the massive volumes of industrial effluent which pour into the lake every day.
Even though laws have been made, the governments do not have the power to enforce them.
Most industries simply ignore the regulations. The Mediterranean Sea occupies 1% of the
world's water surface, but it is the dumping ground for 50% of all marine pollution. Almost
sixteen countries regularly throw industrial wastes a few miles offshore.
Water is free to everyone. A few years ago people thought that the supply of clean water
in the world was limitless. Today, many water supplies have been ruined by pollution and
sewage. Clean water is now scarce, and we are at last beginning to respect it. What should we
do to save this precious source?

Solar energy is a long lasting source of energy which can be used almost anywhere. To generate
solar energy, we only need solar cells and the sun! Solar cells can easily be installed on house roofs,
so no new space is needed and each user can quietly generate their own energy. Compared to other
renewable sources, they also possess many advantages. Wind and water power rely on turbines
which are noisy, expensive and easy to break down. Solar cells are totally silent and non-polluting.
As they have no moving parts, they require little maintenance and have a long lifetime.
However, solar energy also has some disadvantages. We can only generate solar energy during
daytime because the system depends on sunlight. Besides, solar cells require large area to work
effectively. The main disadvantage of solar energy is that it costs about twice as much as traditional
sources such as coal, oil, and gas. This is because solar cells are expensive. Scientists are hoping that
the costs of solar cells will reduce as more and more people see the advantages of this
environmentally friendly source of energy.

SAVING THE ENVIRONMENT: ONE HOME AT A TIME
Pollution can be seen not only throughout the world, but also in our own homes.It comes from
household chemicals, the amount of water people use and the waste people produce and throw
away.What can be done to stop this pollution? Surprisingly, a person can help save the environment
by doing simple things.
First, we need to recycle, which allows products to be used over and over again.Recycling can
also reduce the number of trees cut down to produce paper products.It takes very little effort.It is
not hard to place plastic and glass bottles, aluminum cans and paper in a bin.Anyone can do it.
Second, we need to watch the amount of water used at home.It can be conserved by taking short
showers instead of baths, repairing leaky faucets, using the dishwasher or washing machine only
when fully loaded, or simply turning the faucet off while brushing your teeth.

this waste effectively.For example, grass clippings and food scraps can be made into compost for
plants.The average person produces 4.3 pounds of waste every day, but we can reduce that amount
by recycling and reusing.If we do our part in our own homes, we can help keep the planet from

Francis Bacon, one of the most important philosophers of England, was born in London and educated
at Cambridge University. When he was only 15, he went to France to work for the English
ambassador. Two years later he went back to England to study law. At the age of twenty- three he
was chosen to parliament. His ideas about how scientist should study things in nature help to bring
the modern way of thinking called the scientific method.
One of the Bacon’s best known books was his Essays. Each Essay was a short piece of writing in
which he tried to give a lesson by discussing sides of a subject such as studying, conversation, friends
and healthy living. In many of his books, Bacon explained how scientists should study things as they
really existed in nature and then tried to figure out what caused a particular thing to be as it was.
Later, by doing experiments, the scientist could see that any one cause would always have the same
result. This method, which is called inductive reasoning, is used by all the scientists today, but it
was new in Bacon’s time.
