Let children learn to judge their own work A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected

all the time If corrected too much, he will stop talking He notices a thousand times a day the difference

between the language he uses and the language those around him use Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s In the same way, children learn all the other things they learn to do without being taught – to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle – compare their own

performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes But in school we

never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them We do it all for him

We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher Let him do it himself Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what the answer is to that problem,

whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book Let him correct his own papers Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should

be to help the child when he tells us that he can’t find the way to get the right answer Let’s end all this nonsense of grades, exams, and marks Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know

Let them get on with this job in the way that seems most sensible to them, with our help as school teachers if they ask for it The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the

rest of one’s life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something essential, something they will need to get on in the

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.

The concept of obtaining fresh water from iceberg that is towed to populated areas and arid regions

of the world was once treated as a joke more appropriate to cartoons than real life But now it is being

considered quite seriously by many nations, especially since scientists have warned that the human race will outgrow its fresh water supply faster than it runs out of food Glaciers are a possible source of fresh water

that has been overlooked until recently (A)

Three-quarters of the Earth's fresh water supply is still tied up in glacial ice, a reservoir of untapped fresh water so immense that it could sustain all the rivers of the world for 1,000 years Floating on the

Trang 4

oceans every year are 7,659 trillion metric tons of ice encased in 10,000 icebergs that break away from the

polar ice caps, more than ninety percent of them from Antarctica (B)

Huge glaciers that stretch over the shallow continental shelf give birth to icebergs throughout the year Icebergs are not like sea ice, which is formed when the sea itself freezes; rather, they are formed entirely on land, breaking off when glaciers spread over the sea As they drift away from the polar region, icebergs

sometimes move mysteriously in a direction opposite to the wind, pulled by subsurface currents Because

they melt more slowly than smaller pieces of ice, icebergs have been known to drift as far north as 35

degrees south of the equator in the Atlantic Ocean (C)

The difficulty arises in other technical matters, such as the prevention of rapid melting in warmer climates and the funneling of fresh water to shore in great volume But even if the icebergs lost half of their

volume in towing, the water they could provide would be far cheaper than that produced by desalination, or removing salt from water (D)

Question 43: What is the main topic of the passage?

A The movement of glaciers B Icebergs as a source of fresh water

C Future water shortages D The future of the world's rivers

Question 44: The word “arid” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to .

A anhydrous B fruitful C remote D distant

Question 45: The word "it" in the first paragraph refers to .

A an iceberg that is towed B obtaining fresh water from icebergs

C the population of arid areas D real life

Question 46: According to the author, most of the world's fresh water is to be found in .

Question 47: The word “currents” in the third paragraph is closest in meaning to _.

Question 48: How are icebergs formed?

A They break off from glaciers B Seawater freezes

C Rivers freeze D Small pieces of floating ice converge

Question 49: With which of the following ideas would the author be likely to agree?

A Towing icebergs to dry areas is economically possible

B Desalination of water is the best way to obtain drinking water

C Using water from icebergs is a very short-term solution to water shortages

D Icebergs could not be towed very far before they would melt

Question 50: Which is the best place where the following sentence will most properly fit? "To corral them and steer them to parts of the world where they are needed would not be too difficult."

Question 51: The word "that" in the last paragraph refers to _.

A the volume B the water C the iceberg D the towing

Question 52: What are the technical matters mentioned as the difficulty arising in the process of obtaining

fresh water from the iceberg?

A The prevention of rapid melting iceberg

B The filtering water and the funneling it to shore in a large amount

C The purifying the fresh water and carrying it to shore

D The prevention of rapid melting and the funneling to shore in great volume

ĐÁP ÁN & LỜI GIẢI CHI TIẾT

Câu 1: Đáp án : D

A /t/ B /t/ C /t/ D /d/

A /ɔ:/ B /ɔ:/ C /ɔ:/ D /ʌ/

Câu 3: Đáp án : C

“noticeble” (adj) = “easily seen”: dễ nhận thấy, rõ rệt

“regard…as” = “consider…as”: coi như, xem như là…

“in the same boat” = “in a similar situation”: cùng cảnh ngộ, cùng trong một tình cảnh, câu này giống nghĩa như câu nói “cùng hội cùng thuyền” trong tiếng Việt

Thông tin: “children learn all the other things they learn to do without being taught – to talk, run, climb,

whistle, ride a bicycle – compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly

make the needed changes.”

Chúng sẽ so sánh bản thân với những người giỏi hơn, để từ đó có những thay đổi cần thiết cho bản thân

Câu 7: Đáp án : A

Các hoạt động “to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle” đều được đánh giá giống như học các kỹ năng khác

“He” được thay thế cho từ “A child” ở câu thứ 2: “A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected

all the time.”

Câu 9: Đáp án : B

Thông tin ở câu: “in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes for himself, let alone correct them.” Giáo viên thường chỉ ra những sai sót cho trẻ, đây là điều tác giả nghĩ giáo viên không nên làm

“those” được thay thế cho từ “performances” trong cụm “their own performances” ở phía trước

Thông tin ở câu: “they learn to do without being taught – to talk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle” Đáp án là: “Talking, climbing and whistling”

Thông tin ở cuối đoạn 2: “let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.” Quá trình của trẻ nên được đánh giá bởi chính bản thân chúng

“complicated” = “complex” (adj): phức tạp, rắc rối

Trang 7

“essential” = “important” (adj): quan trọng, thiết yếu, cần thiết

Thật ra, “essential” cũng đồng nghĩa với “necessary”, nhưng đáp án D lại là một trạng từ “necessarily” nên không thể chọn D

Đây là ý rút ra từ toàn bộ bài đọc Tác giả sợ rằng, trẻ sẽ trở thành người mà không thể nghĩ cho bản thân, vì

cứ được người lớn chỉ ra những sai sót và dạy cách sửa…Trẻ không tự mình làm được mọi việc Tác giả đã

đề cập: “let the children learn what all educated persons must someday learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.” Hãy để trẻ tự suy nghĩ cho bản thân và làm mọi việc

Phần B trọng âm rơi vào âm tiết thứ nhất, còn lại là thứ 3

Phần A trọng âm rơi vào âm tiết thứ 2, còn lại là thứ nhất

Phần C trọng âm rơi vào âm tiết thứ 2, còn lại là thứ nhất

“were” -> “was” Chủ ngữ trong câu này là “What I told her” – là danh từ số ít, vì thế chia động từ to be là

“was”

“other students” -> other students’ (thêm dấu sở hữu cách) hoặc “those of other students” Đối tượng so sánh

ở đây không phải là Jack với những học sinh khác, mà là thành tích/sự biểu diễn của Jack với thành tích/sự biểu diễn của những học sinh khác

“common” -> “commonly” Phía trước có động từ tobe, phía sau có động từ dạng phân từ II, nên Ở đây ta cần một trạng từ

“too” -> “so” Cấu trúc “so that” (cấu trúc nhấn mạnh): …đến mức mà…: Họ mệt đến mức phải tìm nơi cắm trại nghỉ qua đêm

“that” -> which “that” không bao giờ được dùng sau dấu phảy “which” thay thế cho cả vế phía trước dấu phảy

“whom” được thay thế cho “My relative” “whom” được thay thế cho tân ngữ, vì câu này có thể hiểu “you met My relative yesterday” (My relative đóng vai trò là tân ngữ)

"that" không bao giờ đứng sau dấu phảy, vì thế không thể chọn C hay D

“when” ở đây được dịch là “thì” Tôi bấm chuông 3 lần thì anh ta mới trả lời Hành động bấm chuông xảy ra trước, vì thế ta chia ở thì quá khứ hoàn thành: ‘had rung’

Câu điều kiện loại 3, vế sau được chia theo cấu trúc “would/could/…+have+quá khứ phân từ II”

Trang 8

Cấu trúc “it’s time/ it’s high time + S + did something” : đến lúc ai làm việc gì

Cấu trúc “regret” + doing something: hối hận, hối tiếc làm gì

“cut off”: cắt nguồn cung cấp, chặn đứt

“There was nothing we could do”: Chúng ta không thể làm gì được cả Câu này mang nghĩa phủ định, vì thế không thể dùng “anything we could do” hay “something could do” hoặc “nothing we couldn’t do” vì chúng đều có nghĩa khẳng định

Đảo ngữ với “Only when”, đảo “will” lên trước, sau đó đến chủ ngữ, rồi đến động từ

“as long as”: miễn là Bạn có thể đi nơi nào bạn muốn miễn là phải trở lại trước khi trời tối

“include”: bao gồm, ở đây chúng ta chia bị động với “are included”: được bao gồm, các loại phí này được bao gồm trong giá của chuyến nghỉ này

Cấu trúc “look forward to” + doing something: mong đợi, mong ngóng làm gì

“Sure, take your time.”: Chắc chắn rồi, cứ từ từ Ở đây có thể hiểu là “take your time to change clothes”

“glow of satisfaction” : sự hài lòng, sự thoả mãn

Phía trước có mạo từ “an” và tính từ “ early” nên ở đây ta cần một danh từ Đáp án “appointment”

“A number of” +…: Một số lượng (của cái gì)

“fuel” là danh từ không đếm được, vì thế, phải dùng “little” hoặc “a little”

“a little” là nghĩa là ít, nhưng vẫn có thể đủ dùng

“little” là ít, dường như không đủ dùng

Vì thế, phía sau mới có câu: “Therefore, we had to stop midway to fill some”

Nếu phía trước có “Let’s…” thì câu hỏi đuôi chắc chắn luôn là “shall we?”

“wish” + “would/wouldn’t do something” :ước tương lai sẽ làm/không làm gì

Trang 9

Trong tiếng anh, Yes là đồng ý, phía sau là một câu khẳng định, No cũng tương tự, khác với văn nói của tiếng Việt

Vì thế, đáp án A và B là sai, Đáp án đúng là D “Yes, I love it”

Đoạn văn nói về icebergs như một nguồn nước sạch, trong đoạn 1 có “obtaining fresh water from

iceberg…”, đoạn 2 có “Three-quarters of the Earth's fresh water supply…”, đoạn cuối có “the water they could provide….”

Cách tạo ra icebergs, hướng trôi của icebergs,… cũng được nhắc đến trong bài

“arid” =” anhydrous”: khô cằn, khô khan (đất, khí hậu)

“it” được thay thế cho “obtaining fresh water from iceberg” trong câu: “The concept of obtaining fresh water from iceberg that is towed to populated areas and arid regions of the world was once treated as a

joke more appropriate to cartoons than real life.”

Thông tin ở câu cuối đoạn 1: “Glaciers are a possible source of fresh water that has been overlooked until recently.”

“currents” = “flows of water”: dòng, luồng chảy của nước

Thông tin ở đoạn 3: “Icebergs are not like sea ice, which is formed when the sea itself freezes; rather, they are formed entirely on land, breaking off when glaciers spread over the sea.”

Thông tin: “As they drift away from the polar region, icebergs sometimes move mysteriously in a

direction opposite to the wind, pulled by subsurface currents.” Vì thế, icebergs hoàn toàn có thể trôi đến

những vùng khô cằn hơn

Phía trước đề cập đến thực tế về sự trôi nổi của icebergs: “Because they melt more slowly than smaller

pieces of ice, icebergs have been known to drift as far north as 35 degrees south of the equator in the Atlantic Ocean.” Vì thế Câu in đậm phù hợp nhất khi được nối tiếp ở đây

“that” được thay thế cho “the water” trong câu “the water they could provide would be far cheaper ” Câu 52: Đáp án : D

Thông tin ở câu đầu tiên đoạn cuối: “The difficulty arises in other technical matters, such as the prevention

of rapid melting in warmer climates and the funneling of fresh water to shore in great volume.”

“eager for something” hoặc “eager to do something”: háo hức, mong đợi về cái gì

“come across”: gặp tình cờ

Trang 10

“see” somebody/something as…: nhìn nhận ai/cái gì như…

“far/much more” dùng để nhấn mạnh hơn khi so sánh

“camping experience”: kinh nghiệm về cắm trại, vế sau có đề cập “as I used to go camping with my dog on

my school holidays.”

“explore” :khám phá “spend” +doing something, vì thế nên ta chọn “exploring”

“look at”: quan sát, nhìn, không chọn “observe” hay “watch” vì 2 từ này không có giới từ đi kèm, “notice” thì không phù hợp về nghĩa

“bird” đi với danh từ chỉ số lượng là “flock”: đàn

Động từ fly được chia quá khứ “flew”, vì phía trước có “disappeared” (dạng quá khứ)

“vary”(v): thay đổi, biến đổi Trái nghĩa là “stay unchanged” (giữ nguyên)

“huge” (adj): to lớn, vĩ đại, trái nghĩa là “insignificant” (không đáng kể, tầm thường)

TỰ LUẬN:

Câu 1: There was so much noise that I couldn’t hear her calling.

Cấu trúc nhấn mạnh “so…that” Có quá nhiều tiếng ồn đến nỗi tôi không thể nghe cô ấy nói chuyện

Câu 2: The new system has been tested several times before.

Cấu trúc bị động ở thì hiện tại hoàn thành: S +has/have+been+ quá khứ phân từ II +…

Câu 3: Omega advised Tim to keep his room tidy.

“had better” = “should” đây là một lời khuyên

“advise somebody to do/ not to do something”: khuyên ai làm/ không làm gì

Câu 4: - He plays this piece of music more beautifully than anyone else (does).

- He plays this piece of music the most beautifully

Câu này có thể sử dụng Cấu trúc so sánh hơn “more…than” hoặc so sánh nhất “the most”

Câu 5: There is no point in asking the manager for a day off.

“there is no point in doing something”: đây là một cụm thường gặp, nghĩa là: không có giá trị/ý nghĩa/…nào trong việc làm gì

BÀI VIẾT: There is no doubt that homework is important to students’ study Homework provides

opportunities for reinforcement of work learned during school time and for children to develop their

research skills Therefore, it helps children understand new lessons more easily If they fail to do your homework, they will probably not understand what the teacher would be teaching during the next class The third important benefit of doing homework is that it helps prepare the students for the major end tests Once

a child performs well in a homework, it will teach them the importance of performing better in their next test In addition, homework teaches students about time management Instead of going out and wasting time,
