3) Can you spell all of them?

4) Compare with the Vietnamese alphabet (amounts of letters, pronunciation, …)

1.1.1 Vowels

6

Trang 7

I [ai]

1.1.2 Consonants

7

Trang 8

B [bi:] bar; bee K [kei] kick S [es] sea, sit

C [si:] clever L [el] lemon T [ti:] town, title

D [di:] dad; dive M [em] mother V [vi:] vowel

F [ef] father; far N [en] new; men W [dʌblju] wish

G [dʒi:] language P [pi:] peace X [eks] xenon

H [eitʃ] harbour Q [kju:] quarter Y [wai] young

J [dʒei] jockey R [a:] read; car Z [zed] zero; zig-zag

1.3.1.2 Forms: a word (beautiful, clever) and a phrase (an old tall man).

1.3.1.3 Positions: It can occur in two positions in a phrase:

- Before the noun as in clear water, beautiful beaches, a terrible decision

Trang 9

1.3.2.1 Usages: An adverb tells us about a verb An adverb tells us how somebody does something or how something happens (Tom drives carefully; it rains heavily) An adverb adds more information about place, time, manner, cause

or degree to a verb, an adjective, a phrase or another adverb

1.3.2.2 Forms: The class of adverbs is very wide-ranging in form and is used

to add comments to many of the other word classes

- Normally made from adjectives by the addition of the ending: => Adjective + –ly

(quickly, hopelessly), e.g awful -> awfully, incredible -> incredibly; slow -> slowly.

- Other words which are difficult to classify, like not, just and soon.

1.3.2.3 Positions:

- After verb and/or an object (she speaks English perfectly; they walk quickly etc.).

- Before adjectives and/or other adverbs (terribly sorry; incredibly quickly etc.).

1.3.2.4 Types:

- Adverbs of frequency, such as never, usually, always, seldom, etc.

- Adverbs of place, time, manner, cause or degree, such as quietly, sadly etc.

1.3.3 Conjunction (Conj.)

1.3.3.1 Usages: Conjunctions connect two or more clauses, phrases or words

together to make longer constructions

1.3.3.2 Forms: a word (but, then, although) and a phrase (in case of; as long

as)

1.3.3.3 Position:

- Before a noun and at the beginning of a sentence:

Despite the rain, they enjoy their holiday.

Although the traffic was bad, I arrived on time.

- Before a noun and in the middle of a sentence(s)

We didn’t go out because of the rain.

I didn’t get the job in spite of the fact (that) I had all necessary qualifications.

- At the end of a sentence (in spoken language):

The house isn’t very nice, I like the garden though (= but I like the garden).

1.3.3.4 Types:

- The coordinating conjunction: connects the same grammatical status

Examples: a) The coffee was strong, but sweet

b) We can go to the match or watch it on TV

c) She has a dog and two cats.

- The subordinating conjunction cannot stand on its own, but needs another more

important clause to complete the meaning

Examples: d) When I arrived home, they had already eaten

e) I had to stop driving because the rain was so bad

f) Can I have a word with you, if you’ve got the time?

g) Although he can’t swim, he goes sailing.

Trang 10

1.3.4.4 Types: we can easily recognize the nouns into two types: Common nouns and Proper nouns (the names of a specific person, place, event etc., usually starting with a capital letter, for example, York , John, Christmas, Saturday); but

both of them continue to be divided into two main groups below:

- Countable nouns: + singular: a seaman, a pilot, an idea…

+ plural: seamen, pilots, ideas…

- Uncountable nouns: can not use any numbers before them directly: water, fuel, ice, …

1.3.5 Preposition (Prep.)

1.3.5.1 Usages: We use the preposition to talk about:

- Either time or space: in, on, under, beside, through, inside, before, opposite.

- Possession (the seat of mine), cause (because of), purpose (in order to), and

method (by bicycle).

1.3.5.2 Forms:

- Multi-word units: out of, by means of, in spite of, instead of, up to etc.

Pronouns are usually treated as a special sub-class of nouns Some examples of

pronouns are: I, you, he, she, our, its, something, anyone and so on

Examples:

Trang 11

Bill’s arrived Bill’s in the lounge => Bill’s arrived He’s in the lounge

A person called for you => Someone called for you.

1.3.6.2 Forms: a word (we, anybody) and a phrase (both of them).

4.3 Vocabulary

4.3.1 The text

LIFE IN VOCATIONAL TRAINING SCHOOL

Are you freaking out about going to vocational training school? Yes, vocational school

is more difficult than secondary school or high school

In secondary school or high school, your parents and your teacher help you a lot Youjust have to learn, mainly in the books and some social knowledge Your timetables arealways ready by your parents and teachers

In vocational school, you need to manage your time No one force you to get up, to have

meals or to learn, but you need to figure out how to best divide up your time You need

to study more, not only in classes, but also in workshops, where you have to practice

many skills for your career That means, studying and training skills are the major parts

of your school life

There are many subjects in your learning program such as: foreign language,

informatics, higher maths, etc In class, taking notes is more difficult In high school,

your teacher will probably give you an outline of his or her lecture and tell you whatpoints will be on the test In vocational school, the professor often just talks It's yourresponsibility to write everything down and know what is important

Your parents won't be able to help much In vocational school, teachers cannot discuss

your school work with your parents The school considers you an adult, and sharing yourpersonal information with other adults is limited Your parents may be able to give youguidance about classes and your social life, and if you're lucky, they'll help you outfinancially For the most part, though, you're on your own

You need to balance work and play Your social life has to come second to your schoolwork, and your parents and teachers won't be around to make sure what happens

Trang 35

Students are expected to act like adults in class.

Though there are many differences between secondary school or high school andvocational school, we cannot deny that, school life is the most wonderful time in ourlife
