ƠN
ACTIVITY 1: Comparative adverbs
* Objectives:
1. To help ss identify the verbs that go with only gerunds and those that go with both gerunds
and to-infinitives.
NH
* Content: - To teach grammar.
- To teach Ss the comparative forms of some adverbs that Ss normally use in everyday
conversations.
* Tương tự như với tính từ, trạng từ chia thành 2 loại: Trạng từ ngắn và trạng từ dài
Y

1.1. Trạng từ ngắn (Short adverbs): - Là những trạng từ có một âm tiết (one syllable)
Eg: : hard, fast, late, far, early, soon …
QU

- She runs fast.


1.2. Trạng từ dài (Long adverbs): Là những trạng từ có 2 âm tiết trở lên (two syllable).
+ Là những trạng từ có đuôi + ly:
Eg: : slowly, carefully, quickly, interestingly,…
M

- My father drives carefully.


1.3 Form : 1- For most adverbs (often with two or more syllables), we make comparative

forms by adding more.


Examples:
+ adding more: slowly → more slowly ; carefully → more carefully
2. For adverbs that have the same forms as adjectives like fast, hard, soon, etc., we make
comparative forms by adding -er.
Y

2. adding -er:
fast → faster ; hard→ harder
DẠ

3. Some irregular adverbs


well → better ; badly → worse
2. Comparative adverbs (So sánh hơn với trạng từ):
Short Adv: S + V + adv + er + than + Noun/ Pronoun
Long Adv: S + V + more/ less + adv + than + Noun/ Pronoun

L
Eg: - They work harder than I do/ me.

A
- A horse can run faster than a buffalo.
- Mai dances more beautifully than Hoa does.

B. COUNTABLE AND UNCOUNTABLE NOUNS

CI
* Help Ss identify countable and uncountable nouns.
* Ss practice using countable and uncountable nouns.

FI
+ Do the tasks.
1. Countable nouns (Danh từ đếm được)
- Some nouns refer to things which, in English, are treated as separate items which can be

OF
counted. These are called countable nouns. Here are some examples:
Một số danh từ dùng để chỉ những thứ mà trong tiếng Anh được coi là những mục riêng
biệt có thể đếm được. Chúng được gọi là danh từ đếm được. Dưới đây là một số ví dụ:
a car, three cars; my cousin, my two cousins

ƠN
a book, a box full of books; a city, several big cities

+ Singular and plural


NH
Countable nouns can be singular or plural. They can be used with a/an and with numbers and
many other determiners (e.g. these, a few):
( Danh từ đếm được có thể là số ít hoặc số nhiều. Chúng có thể được sử dụng với a/an và
với số và nhiều từ hạn định khác (ví dụ: these, a few):
She’s got two sisters and a younger brother.
Y
QU

2. Uncountable nouns (Danh từ không đếm được)


In English grammar, some things are seen as a whole or mass. These are called
uncountable nouns, because they cannot be separated or counted.
( Trong ngữ pháp tiếng Anh, một số thứ được coi là toàn bộ hoặc khối lượng. Chúng được
gọi là danh từ không đếm được vì chúng không thể tách rời hoặc đếm được. )
M

Some examples of uncountable nouns are:


- Ideas and experiences: ( Ý tưởng và kinh nghiệm ): advice, information, progress, news,

luck, fun, work


- Materials and substances (Vật liệu và chất) : water, rice, cement, gold, milk
- Weather words ( từ thời tiết ) : weather, thunder, lightning, rain, snow
- Names for groups or collections of things ( Tên cho các nhóm hoặc bộ sưu tập của sự vật:)
Y

: furniture, equipment, rubbish, luggage.


DẠ

- Other common uncountable nouns include (Các danh từ không đếm được phổ biến khác bao
gồm : accommodation, baggage, homework, knowledge, money, permission, research, traffic,
travel.
- Some nouns always have plural form but they are uncountable because we cannot use
numbers with them. ( Một số danh từ luôn có dạng số nhiều nhưng chúng không đếm được vì
chúng ta không thể sử dụng số với chúng.)
I bought two pairs of trousers…..

II. GRAMMAR:
I. Questions: yes-no questions

+ Questions that need either a yes or a no answer are called yes-no questions:
( Những câu hỏi cần câu trả lời có hoặc không được gọi là câu hỏi Yes-No.)
+ Do you like classical music ? (answer: yes or no)
+ Did you watch television las tnight? (answer: yes or no)
1. Forming yes-no questions: (Cách đặt câu hỏi có - không?)
Y

1.1. With an auxiliary verb: (Dùng Trợ động từ )


DẠ

* We form yes-no questions with an auxiliary verb (be, do or have) + subject + main verb or with a
modal verb + subject + main verb:
( Chúng ta đặt câu hỏi có-không với trợ động từ (be, do hoặc have) + chủ ngữ + động từ chính hoặc
với Trợ động từ + chủ ngữ + động từ chính? )
Be: Is she working very hard? Were they waiting for the bus?
Do: Does she live near here? Did you watch TV last night?
Have: Have you finished it yet? Had they visited Lon Don before?
Modal: Could you help me open this box? Should I come to her party?

L
** Where there is no auxiliary verb be, have or modal verb already present in the statement, we use the

A
auxiliary do, does, did:

( Chúng ta không sử dụng trợ động từ khi chúng ta sử dụng be làm động từ chính:
+ Is she your sister? Yes, she is

ƠN
* Cấu trúc is there/ are there?
Ví dụ: - Is there any milk in the bottle? Yes, there is.
- Is there any salt in the kitchen? No, there isn’t.
- Are there any people outside now? Yes, a lot of people are standing out there.
NH
- Are there any children in the garden? No, there aren’t.

- Câu hỏi với Wh bắt đầu bằng what, when, where, who, whom, which, whose, why và how.
- Chúng được dùng để là rõ thông tin. Câu trả lời không thể là Yes/No.
Ví dụ:
Y

A: When do you finish school? B: Next June.


QU

A: Who is your favourite teacher? B: Mr. Pike.


2. Cách thành lập câu hỏi với Wh-Q
2.1. Với trợ động từ:

Wh- + Trợ động từ (be, do or have) + Chủ ngữ + Động từ chính?


M

+ hoặc:

Wh- + Động từ khuyết thiếu + Chủ ngữ + Động từ chính?

Ví dụ:
Be: When are you leaving? Who’s been paying the bills?
Y

Do: Where do they live? Why didn’t you call me?


Have: What has she done now? What have they decided?
DẠ

Modal: Who would she stay with? Where should I park?


2.2. Không có trợ động từ:
Note:Khi what, who, which hoặc whose là chủ ngữ hay một phần chủ ngữ, ta không dùng trợ động từ.
Ta dùng trật tự từ : Chủ ngữ + Động từ.
Ví dụ: What fell off the wall? (Cái gì rớt trên tường xuống vậy?)
Which horse won? (Con ngựa nào về nhất?); Who bought this? (Ai mua cái này?)
Whose phone rang? (Điện thoại của ai kêu vậy?)
** Trả lời câu hỏi với Wh

B. Countable nouns and Uncountable nouns.


Y

1. Định nghĩa: Là những danh từ chỉ người, chỉ động vật, chỉ sự vật hoặc hiện tượng,… tồn tại độc lập
riêng lẻ mà ta có thể đếm được, được thể hiện bằng số lượng cụ thể, chính vì vậy thường sẽ đi cùng với
QU

số đếm phía trước.


Ví dụ: a chair, an apple, five pens,…
Phân loại: Danh từ đếm được có 2 loại hình thái: danh từ số ít (single) và danh từ số nhiều (plural).
∑ Danh từ số ít thường đi kèm mạo từ “a/an” phía trước, còn danh từ số nhiều dùng để chỉ sự vật
với số lượng từ 2 trở lên.
M

∑ Ngoài một số trường hợp bất quy tắc thì khi muốn chuyển danh từ số ít sang dạng danh từ số
nhiều, ta thêm “s” hoặc “es” vào tận cùng để biểu thị.

Ví dụ:
a table (một cái bàn) – tables (những cái bàn)
an orange (một quả cam) – 5 oranges (5 quả cam)
a boy (một cậu bé) – 3 boys (3 cậu bé)
Y

Một số quy tắc cần nhớ khi chuyển danh từ đếm được dạng số ít sang dạng số nhiều bằng cách
thêm “es”:
DẠ

∑ Nếu danh từ đếm được số ít kết thúc bằng ‘ch, sh, s, x, o’, khi chuyển sang dạng số nhiều cần
thêm ‘es’.
Ví dụ: one glass → four glasses, watch → 2 watches
∑ Nếu danh từ đếm được số ít kết thúc bằng ‘y’, khi sang dạng số nhiều cần chuyển ‘y’ thành ‘i’
sau đó thêm ‘es’.
Ví dụ: one family → two families, a lady → 2 ladies
∑ Nếu danh từ đếm được số ít có tận cùng là ‘f, fe, ff’, khi chuyển sang dạng số nhiều ta bỏ đi và
thêm “ves” vào cuối.
Ví dụ: a knife → knives, wolf (một con sói) → wolves (những con sói)

L
Một số danh từ đếm được bất quy tắc thường gặp (là những từ khi chuyển dạng số ít sang dạng số
nhiều sẽ không theo bất kỳ một quy tắc chung nào):

A
Danh từ số ít Danh từ số nhiều Nghĩa

CI
Woman Women Phụ nữ
Man Men Đàn ông
Foot Feet Bàn chân

FI
Person People Con người
Child Children Trẻ em

OF
Tooth Teeth Răng
Bacterium Bacteria Vi khuẩn
Mouse Mice Con chuột
Goose Geese Con ngỗng
Ngoài ra, còn một số danh từ đếm được có dạng số ít và số nhiều đều biểu thị giống nhau. Bạn chỉ có

ƠN
thể xác định dựa vào số đếm đứng trước, hoặc dựa vào ngữ cảnh của câu văn, đoạn văn.
Ví dụ:
∑ A fish (một con cá) – 2 fish (2 con cá)
∑ A deer (một con hươu) – 2 deer (2 con hươu)
NH
∑ A sheep (một con cừu) – 2 sheep (2 con cừu)
∑ A series (một chuỗi) – series (nhiều chuỗi)
Trong tiếng Anh, những danh từ bất quy tắc không chiếm số lượng quá nhiều. Chính vì vậy, bạn chỉ
cần chú ý học và ghi nhớ thì sẽ không lo mắc sai lầm trong quá trình học tiếng Anh.
Y

Danh từ không đếm được (Uncountable Nouns)


Định nghĩa: chỉ đồ vật, sự vật, hiện tượng,… không đếm được, không thể sử dụng với số đếm. Đây
QU

thường là các danh từ chỉ khái niệm trừu tượng như hiện tượng tự nhiên, vật chất ở thể khí/ lỏng/ rắn,
các loại bệnh, các môn học, các môn thể thao, một số danh từ tập hợp,…
Ví dụ: flour (bột), water (nước), money (tiền), advice (lời khuyên), air (không khí), tea (trà),
information (thông tin),…
Phân loại: Khác với danh từ đếm được, các danh từ không đếm được thường có dạng số ít.
M

Danh từ không đếm được có thể chia thành 5 nhóm điển hình như sau:
∑ Danh từ chỉ đồ ăn: meat (thịt), food (đồ ăn), rice (gạo), water (nước), sugar (đường),..

∑ Danh từ chỉ khái niệm trừu tượng: fun (niềm vui), help (sự giúp đỡ), information (thông tin),
patience (sự kiên trì), knowledge (kiến thức),…
∑ Danh từ chỉ lĩnh vực, môn học: ethics (đạo đức học), mathematics (môn toán), music (âm
nhạc), grammar (ngữ pháp), history (lịch sử),…
Y

∑ Danh từ chỉ hiện tượng tự nhiên: snow (tuyết), thunder (sấm), heat (nhiệt độ), light (ánh
sáng), wind (gió),…
DẠ

∑ Danh từ chỉ hoạt động: walking (đi bộ), swimming (bơi), reading (đọc), sleeping (ngủ),
cooking (nấu ăn),…
2. Cách sử dụng danh từ đếm được và danh từ không đếm được

QU

Ví dụ:
some pens (vài cái bút) - some coffee (một chút cà phê)
plenty of apples (đủ táo), plenty of sugar (đủ đường)
∑ Danh từ luôn ở dạng số nhiều: Trong tiếng Anh, có một số danh từ dù ở trường hợp nào
cũng chỉ được sử dụng dưới dạng số nhiều.
M

Ví dụ:
Goods ; Trousers; Jeans ; Glasses ; Scissors ; Clothes ; Earnings ; Savings ; Scales….

Các trường hợp bất quy tắc:


∑ Một số danh từ vừa đếm được, vừa không đếm được, nhưng ở mỗi dạng khác nhau sẽ có ý
nghĩa khác nhau.
Ví dụ:
Y

Chickens (những con gà) – chicken (thịt gà)


Lights (những cái đèn) – light (ánh sáng)
DẠ

Times (số lần) – time (thời gian, giờ giấc)


Works (tác phẩm) – work (công việc)
∑ Một số danh từ như ‘water, money, food,…’ thỉnh thoảng có thể được dùng ở dạng số
nhiều để chỉ các loại hay dạng khác nhau ở vật liệu này.
Ví dụ: This is the foods that I want to eat. - Đây là loại thực phẩm mà tôi muốn ăn.
∑ Một số danh từ không đếm được có dạng giống với danh từ số nhiều, rất dễ gây nhầm lẫn.
Ví dụ: news (tin tức), physics (vật lý), mumps (bệnh quai bị), mechanics (cơ học),…
∑ Khi muốn nói tới số lượng của các danh từ không đếm được, bạn có thể sử dụng các từ chỉ
lượng kết hợp với mạo từ “a/an”.

Ethnic minority children might live a life different from that of most Kinh children. They spend some of their
time helping their parents inside and outside the house. They learn to work from an early age, usually at six. Girls
DẠ

help look after the house, care for smaller children, weave clothing, and prepare food. Boys learn to do what their
fathers do. They grow crops, raise the family's livestock, and catch fish.
In the evening, the family often gathers round the open fire. Children listen to stories or legends of heroes from
their grandparents. They also listen to adults talk about their work. This is how the elders pass on traditions and
knowledge to their children.
Nowadays, more and more minority children are going to school. There, they meet children from other ethnic
groups. They play new games and learn new things.
