The Healthy Eating Diet
Healthy eating is about feeling great and having more energy. If you choose the right foods,
your healthy diet will be a tasty diet, too. You can still enjoy your favourite sweet and salty foods,
but too much sugar and salt is bad for your body.
Dairy products like milk, cheese, and yoghurt are great because they contain calcium and keep
your teeth and bones healthy. You should choose low-fat dairy products.
Meat, fish, eggs, beans, and nuts are important, too. They keep our bodies healthy and they
give us energy to work and play.
Whole grains are an important part of every meal. If you eat lots of whole grains, you will
have a healthy heart. Whole grains are in bread, cereal, pasta, and rice. Dark bread and brown rice
are great sources of whole grains.
Fruit and vegetables are the most important part of a healthy diet. They are low in calories and

Have you ever seen someone’s anger when you’re stuck in the traffic jam in rush hours?
Have you witnessed any driver acting aggressively toward other people on the road? If yes, you
have probably witnessed a case of road rage.
Road rage is aggressive or angry behavior of a driver in a road vehicle. Road rage includes
rude gestures, verbal insults, physical threats or even dangerous driving methods. Those behaviors
intend to release stress and frustration of the angry drivers. Road rage can cause noisy arguments
between drivers and more seriously, physical attacks. That may result on severe injuries or even
death. There are many reasons of road rage, one of them is traffic jam. With the increased number
of private vehicles in the streets, congestion is getting worse and worse. People are easy to get
angry if they are stuck in the traffic jam, so road rage is more likely to happen. People are
recommended to calm themselves in the traffic jam by listening to radio or music, so they can
prevent road rage.

Have you ever seen someone’s anger when you’re stuck in the traffic jam in rush hours?
Have you witnessed any driver acting aggressively toward other people on the road? If yes, you
have probably witnessed a case of road rage.
Road rage is aggressive or angry behavior of a driver in a road vehicle. Road rage includes
rude gestures, verbal insults, physical threats or even dangerous driving methods. Those behaviors
intend to release stress and frustration of the angry drivers. Road rage can cause noisy arguments
between drivers and more seriously, physical attacks. That may result on severe injuries or even
death. There are many reasons of road rage, one of them is traffic jam. With the increased number
of private vehicles in the streets, congestion is getting worse and worse. People are easy to get
angry if they are stuck in the traffic jam, so road rage is more likely to happen. People are
recommended to calm themselves in the traffic jam by listening to radio or music, so they can
prevent road rage.

II - Read the passage and answer the following questions.
You use energy every day. Energy is the ability to cause change. When you ride a bike, you use
energy from your body to make the bike move. Your parents use heat energy to change the food
from raw to cooked.
Not all energy is used as soon as you get it. Sometimes energy is stored to be used later, stored
energy can be chemical energy stored in a battery or in your body. It can also be potential energy.
Potential energy is based on the position of the object. A soccer player standing ready to kick a
ball has potential energy.
Energy of motion is also called kinetic energy. Potential energy converts, or changes into, kinetic
energy when the thing or person begins to move. When the soccer player kicks the ball, kinetic
energy is at work. Energy often changes forms. When you switch on the light, electricity
converts into light. When you eat, chemical energy from your food converts into thermal and
mechanical energy that allows you to move and work.
1. What is energy?
_____________________________________________________
2. What kind of energy is based on an object's position?

II. CÂU HỎI ĐUÔI (TAG QUESTIONS)
1. Định nghĩa và cách dùng

Định nghĩa Câu hỏi đuôi là một câu hỏi ngắn, được thêm vào cuối câu trần thuật,
đứng đằng sau dấu phẩy.
Ví dụ:
You like mushrooms, don’t you?
(Bạn thích nấm phải không?)
He isn’t a doctor, is he?
(Anh ấy không phải là một bác sĩ phải không?)
It’s a table, isn’t it?
(Nó là một cái bàn phải không?)
Cách dùng Trong văn nói, ý nghĩa của câu hỏi đuôi tùy thuộc vào cách diễn đạt.
- Nếu xuống giọng ở câu hỏi đuôi thì có nghĩa là không thật sự đặt câu
hỏi, chỉ muốn người nghe đồng ý với mình.
- Nếu lên giọng ở câu hỏi đuôi, thì đó là câu hỏi thực sự.
2. Cách thành lập câu hỏi đuôi tương ứng với các mệnh đề trần thuật
Cấu trúc Auxiliary/ To be/ Modal verb (not) + Subject
Trong đó Auxiliary(trợ động từ) như do/ dose/did, have/has
Động từ tobe: am/ is/ are, was/were
Modal verb (động từ khuyết thiếu) như can, could, must…
Subject (chủ ngữ) như he, she, it…
Trường hợp 1 Nếu câu trần thuật là câu khẳng định, câu hỏi đuôi phải ở thể phủ định.
Hình thức phủ định thường được rút gọn (not = n’t)
Ví dụ:
- She is reading book, isn’t she? (Cô ấy đang đọc sách, phải không?)
- Mr. Nam can speak English well, can’t he? (Ông Nam có thể nói
tiếng Anh tốt, phải không?)
- They did the test yesterday, didn’t they? (Họ đã làm bài kiểm tra vào
hôm qua phải không?)
- Your sister can swim, can’t she? (Chị gái của bạn biết bơi, phải
không?)
Trường hợp 2 Nếu câu trần thuật là câu phủ định, câu hỏi đuôi phải ở thể khẳng định.
Ví dụ:
- Nga isn’t a student, is she? (Nga không phải là học sinh, phải
không?)
- I shouldn’t smoke here, should I? (Tôi không nên hút thuốc ở đây,
phải không?)
- Her parents don’t work in this company, do they? (Bố mẹ cô ấy
không làm việc ở công ty này, phải không?)
- They don’t have to go to school, do they? (Họ không phải đi tới
trường phải không?)
Chú ý Nếu trong câu trần thuật có trợ động từ hoặc động từ to be thì trợ động từ
này được lặp lại trong câu hỏi đuôi.
Ví dụ:
- She was a writer,wasn’t she?
- Miss Lan will go to Ho Chi Minh next month, won’t she?
- They didn’t meet him last night, did they?
Nếu câu trần thuật không có trợ động từ, dùng trợ động từ tương ứng với thì
của câu trần thuật như do/ dose/did, have/has…
- He lives in Hanoi city, doesn’t he?
- You came here, didn’t you?
- They watch TV every evening, don’t they?
Trường hợp Câu hỏi đuôi của I am là aren’t I- nhưng nếu là I am nôt thì vẫn dùng am I?
đặc biệt Ví dụ: I am wrong, aren’t I? (Tôi sai, phải không?)
I’m not wrong, am I? (Tôi không sai, phải không)
Câu trả lời Yes nếu đồng ý với câu trần thuật ở trên.
đối với dạng No nếu không đồng ý với ý kiến ở câu trần thuật.
câu hỏi đuôi Ví dụ:
Your sister is married, isn’t she?
Yes, she has just married./ No, of couse she isn’t.
Tuy nhiên, cần chú ý câu trả lời Yes/No trong câu trả lời đối với câu hỏi phủ
định.
Ví dụ:
You’re not going out today, are you? (Hôm nay bạn không đi chơi phải
không?)
Yes. (=Yes, I am going out) Có. (Có, tôi có đi chơi)
No. (No, I am not going out) Không. (= Không, tôi không đi chơi)
3. Các bước lần lượt thành lập câu hỏi đuôi
Bước 1: Xác định thì của mệnh đề chính.
Bước 2: Xác định loại động từ có trong câu: động từ thường, động từ khuyết thiếu hay động từ
to be.
Bước 3: Xác định mệnh đề chính là câu khẳng định hay phủ định.
Nếu mệnh đề chính là câu khẳng định câu hỏi đuôi là câu phủ định.
Nếu mệnh đề chính là câu phủ định câu hỏi đuôi là câu khẳng định.
Bước 4: Thay đổi đại từ trong câu hỏi đuôi nếu cần.
Dưới đây là một vài ví dụ:
Câu trần thuật phủ định, Câu trần thuật khẳng định,
câu hỏi đuôi khẳng định. câu hỏi đuôi phủ định.
You aren’t a teacher, are you? You are a student, aren’t you?
He isn’t crazy, is he? He is very busy, isn’t he?
They weren’t late, were they? They were surprised, weren’t they?
You don’t speak French, do you? You speak English, don’t you?
You haven’t been here all week, have you? You have studied all week, haven’t you?
You won’t fail the exam, will you? You will pass the exam, won’t you?
She can’t drive a car, can she? She can speak two languages can’t she?
We mustn’t say anything, must we? We must be patient, mustn’t we?

up. As the human population continues to explode, fininnte natural resources, such as fossil fuels,
fresh and frontier forests continue to plummer. If the number of people continues to rise
uncontrollably, the available resources won’t not meet the demand of people.
Moreover, because of the overuse of coal, oil and natural gas, human has caused some serious
pollution. The huge number of vehicles and factories have polluted the air, land and even water.

ice caps to melt and change climate patterns.

population expansion, such activities as agriculture and land development will make natural
habitats shrink. For example, rainforests used to cover 14% of the entire earth’s surface. Today,
rainforest-covered land in the next four decades.
