II. Passive voice (Thể bị động)

1. Cách chuyển từ câu chủ động sang câu bị động
Active S V O

Passive S be V3/ed by + O
* Note
- TÂN NGỮ (O) trong câu chủ động làm CHỦ NGỮ trong câu bị động.
- ĐỘNG TỪ (V) trong câu chủ động sẽ chuyển thành “be + V3/ed”. Trong đó “be” chia theo thì và chia theo
chủ ngữ.
- CHỦ NGỮ (S) trong câu chủ động sẽ biến đổi thành tân ngữ và có giới từ “by” phía trước (by + O).
E.g: Chủ động: My parents will build a house next year.
S V O
Bị động: A house will be built by my parents next year.
S be V3/ed by O
Các bước để chuyển từ câu chủ động sang câu bị động
a. Xác định S, V, O và thời của V trong câu chủ động.
b. Lấy O trong câu chủ động làm S của câu bị động.
c. Lấy S trong câu chủ động làm O và đặt sau by trong câu bị động.
d. Biến đổi V chính trong câu chủ động thành V3/ed (Past Participle) trong câu bị động.
e. Thêm to be vào trước V3/ed trong câu bị động (to be phải chia theo thời của V chính trong câu chủ
động và chia theo số của S trong câu bị động).
- Trong câu bị động by + O luôn đứng sau adverbs of place (trạng từ chỉ nơi chốn) và đứng trước
adverbs of time (trạng từ chỉ thời gian).
- Trong câu bị động, có thể bỏ: by people, by us, by them, by someone, by him, by her … nếu chỉ đối
tượng không xác định.

Exercise 3. Read the passage and choose the best answer A, B, C or D to each question.
Contaminated water and poor sanitation are linked to transmission of diseases such as cholera,
diarrhoea, dysentery, hepatitis A, typhoid and polio. Absent, inadequate, or inappropriately managed
water and sanitation services expose individuals to preventable health risks. This is particularly the case in
health care facilities where both patients and staff are placed at additional risk of infection and disease
when water, sanitation and hygiene services are lacking. Globally, 15% of patients develop an infection
during a hospital stay, with the proportion much greater in low-income countries.
Inadequate management of urban, industrial and agricultural wastewater means the drinking-water of
hundreds of millions of people is dangerously contaminated or chemically polluted. Natural presence of
chemicals, particularly in groundwater, can also be of health significance, including arsenic and fluoride,
while other chemicals, such as lead, may be elevated in drinking-water as a result of leaching from water
supply components in contact with drinking-water.
Some 829 000 people are estimated to die each year from diarrhoea as a result of unsafe drinking-water,
sanitation and hand hygiene. Yet diarrhoea is largely preventable, and the deaths of 297 000 children aged
under 5 years could be avoided each year if these risk factors were addressed. Where water is not readily
available, people may decide handwashing is not a priority, thereby adding to the likelihood of diarrhoea
and other diseases.
Diarrhoea is the most widely known disease linked to contaminated food and water but there are other
hazards. In 2017, over 220 million people required preventative treatment for schistosomiasis – an acute
and chronic disease caused by parasitic worms contracted through exposure to infested water.
In many parts of the world, insects that live or breed in water carry and transmit diseases such as
dengue fever. Some of these insects, known as vectors, breed in clean, rather than dirty water, and
household drinking water containers can serve as breeding grounds. The simple intervention of covering
water storage containers can reduce vector breeding and may also reduce faecal contamination of water at
the household level.
1. The passage is mainly about ______.
A. diarrhea B. water pollution
C. diarrhea and other diseases D. diarrhea and other diseases caused by water
pollution
2. The phrase “risk factors” in the third paragraph refers to______.
A. industrial and agricultural waste B. poor sanitation
C. chemicals in drinking water D. unsafe drinking-water, sanitation and hand
hygiene

Exercise 4. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate
the correct answer to each of the questions.
Many of the major supermarket chains have come under fire with accusations of various unethical acts
over the past decade. They've wasted tons of food, they've underpaid their suppliers and they've
contributed to excessive plastic waste in their packaging, which has had its impact on our environment.
But supermarkets and grocers are starting to sit up and take notice. In response to growing consumer
backlash against the huge amounts of plastic waste generated by plastic packaging, some of the largest UK
supermarkets have signed up to a pact promising to transform packaging and cut plastic wastage. In a
pledge to reuse, recycle or compost all plastic wastage by 2025, supermarkets are now beginning to take
some responsibility for the part they play in contributing to the damage to our environment with one major
supermarket announcing their plan to eliminate all plastic packaging in their own-brand products by 2023.
In response to criticisms over food waste, some supermarkets are donating some of their food surplus.
However, charities estimate that they are only accessing two per cent of supermarkets' total food surplus,
so this hardly seems to be solving the problem. Some say that supermarkets are simply not doing enough.
Most supermarkets operate under a veil of secrecy when asked for exact figures of food wastage, and
without more transparency it is hard to come up with a systematic approach to avoiding waste and to
redistributing surplus food.
Some smaller companies are now taking matters into their own hands and offering consumers a greener,
more environmentally friendly option. Shops like Berlin's Original Unverpakt and London's Bulk Market
are plastic- tree shops that have opened in recent years, encouraging customers to use their own containers
or compostable bags. Online grocer Farmdrop eliminates the need for large warehouses and the risk of
huge food surplus by delivering fresh produce from local farmers to its customers on a daily basis via
electric cars, offering farmers the lion's share of the retail price.
There is no doubt that we still have a long way to go in reducing food waste and plastic waste. But
perhaps the major supermarkets might take inspiration from these smaller grocers and gradually move
towards a more sustainable future forCreated

Exercise 5. Read the passage and write True or False next to the sentences.
Air pollution is contamination of the indoor or outdoor environment by any chemical, physical or
biological agent that modifies the natural characteristics of the atmosphere. Household combustion devices,
motor vehicles, industrial facilities and forest fires are common sources of air pollution. Pollutants of major
public health concern include particulate matter, carbon monoxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and sulfur
dioxide. Outdoor and indoor air pollution cause respiratory and other diseases and is an important source
of morbidity and mortality.
Air pollution kills an estimated seven million people worldwide every year. WHO data shows that
almost all of the global population (99%) breathe air that exceeds WHO guideline limits containing high
levels of pollutants, with low- and middle-income countries suffering from the highest exposures. WHO is
supporting countries to address air pollution.
From smog hanging over cities to smoke inside the home, air pollution poses a major threat to health
and climate. The combined effects of ambient (outdoor) and household air pollution cause millions of
premature deaths every year, largely as a result of increased mortality from stroke, heart disease, chronic
obstructive pulmonary disease, lung cancer and acute respiratory infections.
1. Air pollution is contamination of the outdoor environment only. ____
2. Except for household combustion devices, motor vehicles, industrial facilities and forest fires are
common sources of air pollution. ____

7. The combined effects of outdoor and household air pollution reduce millions of premature deaths. ____

Exercise 6. Read the text, and do the tasks that follow.

A load of rubbish
In the UK, people are finally starting to listen to the message about recycling. British families now recycle
about 22% of their waste. Only five years ago, the figure was about 10%. That’s good news for the
environment - but there’s a lot more to do. Some other European countries like Germany and Holland,
already recycle about 60% of their waste and that s the goal for the UK too.
Households in England produce 25 million tonnes of waste a year. More than half of this is garden waste,
paper, cardboard, and kitchen waste — which people could recycle. They could also recycle plastic, wood,
glass, and aluminium cans. In fact, if everybody in the UK recycled all of their drinking cans, there would
be 14 million fewer rubbish bins of waste each year.
Recycling isn’t the only way to reduce the amount of rubbish we throw away. More than 40% of the waste
in our bins is packaging from shopping. If we changed the way we shop, we could easily reduce the

Bài tập Tiếng Anh 10 (Global Success) 2

amount of waste. For example, street markets and small shops often use less packaging than supermarkets.
And of course, if we grew our own fruit and vegetables, there wouldn’t be any packaging at all.
Task 1. Mark the sentences T (true), or F (false).

Food for Thought
How often do you look in your fridge? And what’s in it? Look at what you eat in a day and multiply that by the
millions of people all over the world. All those people, all that food. Where does it come from? Should we care?
Today, in my fridge, there are a lew grapes, a bunch of bananas and some fruit juice - things that aic not
expensive and that are good for me. There is also a pizza, and some burgers in the freezer — which aie not
so good. I know what this food does to my body, but what does it do to the woild aiound me? It’s time to
look at my carbon footprint and sort out the good from the bad and the really ugly.
Food miles
My first stop is the label. Labels give US lots of information: how long we can keep our food, how many
calories it has, and where it comes from. A few hundred years ago, most of our food came from places we
could walk to, but today, food travels thousands of miles. We refrigerate it, then transport it in planes and

Bài tập Tiếng Anh 10 (Global Success) 2

ships all over the world. This creates pollution and causes of global warming 1 look at the slices of pizza
and immediately feel guilty - not because it’s unhealthy, but because the prawns on it are from Thailand. I
know we produce prawns in the UK, but they’re more expensive. I take out a banana - it’s from Brazil, but
that’s not too bad. It came here by boat, so the carbon footprint of this healthy snack is small.
Packaging
The next stop is the packaging. In the UK, we don’t recycle all our packaging; we throw away more than
30% of it. This waste goes to the rubbish dump and not to the recycling centre.
Luckily, we don’t need to package food like bananas, but food like grapes needs protection. I look at the
grapes in my fridge - they’re in a plastic container and they’re from Spain.
Production
So my grapes are from Spain, but at least they grew in natural sunlight. In the UK, people grow grapes in
heated greenhouses, which means British grapes are less energy-efficient. But there is one other thing in my
freezer, and if pizza and grapes are ‘bad’, then this food is ‘really ugly’. It’s the burgers. They have the
biggest carbon footprint because they come from cows. In the USA, cows create the same amount of
greenhouse gases as 20 million cars. As I close the fridge door, I make a checklist for my next trip to the
supermarket: 1. Read the label. 2. Look at the packaging. 3. Don’t buy a lot of meat. Maybe I could grow my
own vegetables, too. It’s eco-friendly. I’d save some money and I wouldn’t feel guilty about eating burgers.
21. What does the writer want to find out about the food in his fridge?
A. if it is good for his health
B. if it is good for the environment
C. if it saves his money
22. What can we learn from food labels?
A. Information about the people who make our food
B. How far the food has travelled
C. Why the price is low or high
23. Why does the writer feel guilty about the pizza?
A. Because it is made in Thailand.
B. Because it has a big carbon footprint.
C. Because it is bad for his health.
24. Why are bananas better than grapes?
A. Because they don’t have any packaging.
B. Because they don’t travel very far.
C. Because they grow in natural sunlight.
25. Why are burgers really ugly?
A. Because they are unhealthy.
B. Because they come from the USA.
C. Because they come from cows.
26. What does the writer want to do?
A. He wants to stop eating meat.
B. He wants to reduce his carbon footprint.
