Ví dụ:

Cấu trúc của câu so sánh hơn
Short Adv: S + V + ADV + er + than + Noun/ Pronoun

thêm more hoặc most đằng trước trạng từ tương ứng cho so sánh hơn và so sánh
nhất.
pg. 21
So sánh bằng So sánh hơn So sánh nhất

Quickly more quickly most quickly
Fortunately more fortunately most fortunately
* Với các trạng từ có một âm tiết, chúng ta thêm er hoặc est tương ứng với so sánh
hơn và so sánh hơn nhất. Nếu trạng từ loại này tận cùng là y, ta biến y thành i rồi

II. Read the passage and answer the questions below.

Education has been the first priority of my life. And I think a city life can offer
a great support in terms of offering a vast choice of good institutions that one may
like to choose for the higher studies.
I like city life because of the diversity of things you can do. For example, job
opportunities are better in the cities. So, if you’re a city dweller, you don’t have to
leave your home in the search of better work opportunities. You’ll be able to earn
the livelihood and be by the side of your family simultaneously. This was probably
the biggest reason I never could go against the city life.
The third reason I like city life because it offers hundreds of other recreational
opportunities. I’m especially a fun-loving person and never like to sit at home in the
weekends. City life is always very happening and great fun. You can go to a water
park, enjoy fun rides with your family, have a great time with your friends in a
restaurant.
Yes, sometimes the busy city life gets a bit strenuous. But when I need a
change, I take a short two day off for a nice refreshment. City life is much better
because it’s free from the conservative mentality of the villages. The busy city life
doesn’t permit time for unproductive things which can make the life of person
complicated. As city dwellers get exposure to tons of possible career opportunities,
most people can plan their career wisely.
Fierce competition of city life makes people competitive and smart. This is
what actually the modern world needs. Our world doesn’t need orthodox rituals or
superstitious belief. The city life teaches us how to fight with the oddities and
become a winner.
Questions:
1. What is the advantage of the city dwellers when choosing a job?

B. NGỮ PHÁP:
I. REPORTED SPEECH (CÂU TƯỜNG THUẬT)
I. Định nghĩa:
Câu tường thuật là câu dùng để thuật lại nội dung của lời nói trực tiếp.
- Nếu động từ của mệnh đề tường thuật ở thì hiện tại khi đổi sang câu gián
tiếp ta chỉ đổi ngôi; không đổi thì của động từ và trạng từ.
Ví dụ: Câu trực tiếp: She says: “I am a teacher.”
Câu gián tiếp: She says that she is a teacher.
Câu trực tiếp: “I am writing a letter now” Tom says.
Câu gián tiếp: Tom says that he is writing a letter now.
- Nếu động từ của mệnh đề tường thuật ở thì quá khứ khi chuyển sang câu
gián tiếp ta đổi ngôi, thì của động từ, trạng từ chỉ thời gian và nơi chốn.
II. Cách thay đổi trong câu gián tiếp.

1. Thay đổi ngôi (Đại từ nhân xưng, Đại từ sở hữu và Tính từ sở hữu)
pg. 41
a. Ngôi thứ nhất: Dựa vào chủ ngữ của mệnh đề tường thuật chúng ta thường đổi
sang ngôi thứ ba.
Pronoun (Đại từ) Objects (Tân ngữ) Possessive (Tính từ sở hữu.)

I → He/ She me → him/ her my → his/ her
We → They us → them our → their
Ví dụ:
* Câu trực tiếp: He said, “I learn English.” (Anh ấy nói: “Tôi học tiếng Anh”)
Câu gián tiếp: He said that he learned English. (Anh ấy nói rằng, anh ấy học tiếng
Anh.”)
* Câu trực tiếp: She said to me, “My mother gives me a present.” (Cô ấy nói với
tôi, “Mẹ tôi tặng tôi món quà”.)
Câu gián tiếp: She told me that her mother gave her a present. (Cô ấy nói với tôi
rằng mẹ cô tawngjcho cô một món quà.)
b. Ngôi thứ hai: (You, your)
- Xét ý nghĩa của câu để thay đổi cho phù hợp. Thông thường chúng ta thay đổi đại
từ nhân xưng dựa vào tân ngữ của mệnh đề tường thuật.
Ví dụ:
* Câu trực tiếp: Mary said, “You are late again.” (Mary nói, “cậu lại đến muộn.)
Câu gián tiếp: Mary said that you were late again. (Mary nói rằng cậu lại đến
muộn.)
* Câu trực tiếp: “I will meet you at the airport”, he said to me.(Anh ấy nói với tôi
rằng, Tớ sẽ đợi cậu ở sân bay.”)
Câu gián tiếp: He told me that he would meet me at the airport. (Anh ấy nói với
tôi rằng, Anh ấy sẽ đợi tôi ở sân bay.”)
c. Ngôi thứ ba(He/ She/ They - Tân ngữ: him/ her/ them – Sở hữu tính từ: his/ her/
Their) giữ nguyên, không thay đổi.
2. Thay đổi về thì trong câu:
Indirect (Câu gián
Tense (Thì) Direct (Câu trực tiếp)
tiếp)
S+ V(ed)/ V (bất quy
Present simple (Hiện tại đơn) S + V/ V(s, es)+……..
tắc)
Present progressive
S+ am/ is/ are + V-ing S+ was/ were + V-ing
(Hiện tại tiếp diễn)
Present perfect
S + have/ has + P.P S + had + P.P
(Hiện tại hoàn thành)
pg. 42
Present perfect progressive

S + have/ has been +V-
(Hiện tại hoàn thành tiếp S + had been +V-ing
ing
diễn)
Simple past
S + V2/-ed + ….. S + had + P.P
(Quá khứ đơn)
Past progressive
S+ was/ were + V-ing S+ had been + Ving
(Quá khứ tiếp diễn)
Simple future (Tương lai
S+ will + V S+ would+ V
đơn)
Future progressive
S+ will be + V-ing S+ would be+ V
(Tương lai tiếp diễn)
3. Thay đổi các trạng từ chỉ thời gian và nơi chốn
DIRECT INDIRECT
Now Then
Here There
This That
These Those
Today That day
Yesterday The day before/ the previous day
Last year The year before/ the previous year
Tonight That night
Tomorrow The following day/ the next day

I was born in Hanoi, the capital of Viet Nam. Hanoi is famous for its natural
beauty, with lots of rivers and lakes. There are many historical places to visit in
Hanoi. The Literature Temple (Van Mieu – Quoc Tu Giam) is the country’s first
ever historical university. Teenagers often come here to pray for high results in their
upcoming examinations.
As Viet Nam is a Buddhism-oriented nation, its capital has also been the
centre of Buddhism for centuries. In Hanoi alone, there are about 600 temples and
pagodas. It also has a big church in the city centre, a popular place for the few
Christians living here. With a population of nearly eight million, the city is quite
crowded. However, the public transportation is not adequate, so visitors find it hard
to safely cross the roads. The city is packed with universities and enterprises, making
it the top destination for higher education students and labour workers. Many people
from rural areas reside in Hanoi so that they can get well-paid jobs. This makes the
city become more crowded than ever before.

Located in Duy Xuyen district, Quang Nam province, about 69km from Da Nang
City and 20km from Tra Kieu ancient capital, My Son Sanctuary is the complex of
numerous Champa tower-temples in a valley roughly two kilometers wide,
surrounded by two mountain ranges. This used to be a site of religious ceremony for
kings of the ruling dynasties of Champa, as well as a burial place for Cham royalty
and national heroes.
My Son Sanctuary is regarded as one of the main religious centers of Hinduism
in Southeast Asia and is the foremost heritage site of this nature in Vietnam. Notably,
among 225 Cham vestiges that are founded in Vietnam, My Son possesses 71
monuments and 32 epitaphs, the content of which is still being studied. My Son
Sanctuary is often compared with other historical temple complexes in Southeast
Asia, such as Borobudur of Java in Indonesia, Angkor Wat in Cambodia, Bagan of
Myanmar or Ayutthaya in Thailand.
My Son Sanctuary was honored as one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites at
the 23rdsession of the World Heritage Committee in 1999. Based on architectural
remains, My Son perhaps began construction in 4th century. It is perhaps the longest
inhabited archaeological site in Indochina. Although time and wars have turned
numerous tower-temples into ruins, sculptural artifacts and architectural remains still
reflected golden age of Cham fine arts history. These masterpieces have marked
flourishing periods of Champa culture and architecture as well as in Southeast Asia.
1. My Son Sanctuary dates from the 4th century.
2. My Son Sanctuary is located in a valley surrounded by mountains.
3. It can be seen that My Son Sanctuary is a centre of culture and politics of Champa
Kingdom at the present time.

Hoi An ancient town (World cultural heritage)
Hoi An is an old town down the Thu Bon River, on the coastal plain of Quang
Nam Province, about 30 km south of Da Nang City. Hoi An used to be known the
international market with many different names such as Lam Ap, Faifo, Hoai Pho
and Hoi An.
What is so special about Hoi An is that this little port town is in an incredible
state of preservation. It offers some of the most densely-concentrated sights in Viet
Nam with its old streets bordered with ancient houses and assembly halls, its
pagodas, temples, ancient wells and tombs. In total, more than a thousand places of
interest. The architecture of Hoi An is characterized by a harmonious blend of
Vietnamese, Chinese and Japanese influences. After many centuries, Hoi An is still
respectful of its traditions, folk festivals, beliefs and of its sophisticated culinary
art. Set in a quiet environment, Hoi An is surrounded by peaceful villages that have
crafts such as carpentry, bronze making, ceramic...
Researchers said most of the buildings in Hoi An underwent restoration at the
beginning of the 19th century even if they might be constructed long time ago. The
ancient architecture is shown most clearly in the Ancient Town that is located in
pg. 106
Minh An Ward. It covers about 2 square kilometres and almost of all famous relics
in Hoi An are gathered here. The streets are very short and narrow, having a
winding, crossing as the chessboard style. The topography of the ancient town tilt
gradually from north to south. The buildings in the old town is built mostly with
traditional materials such as: brick, wood and no more than two floors. The traces
of time are able to find not only on the architectural design of each building but
also everywhere like: on the yin- yang roof tiles covered with moss and plants; the
old gray mold walls; the pictures carved on a strange animal, or describing an old
story. Having inherited a multi-cultural architecture so varied and sophisticated,
Hoi An must have attracted numerous and talented workers in carpentry, ceramics,
and woodcarving from China, Japan and other regions of Viet Nam.
For centuries, Hoi An had developed into a melting pot of various nationalities
who came to the area, bringing along their own cultures. Accordingly, Hoi An
features the co-existence of indigenous customs and habits and those imported by
foreign settlers.
