III GRAMMAR
A Perfect participles in clauses of time and
reason.
Perfect participle clauses can be rather formal
and are not often used in speech However,
these structures are very useful in formal
writing as they help combine information into
one sentence.
KEY
Having planned the content, we’re now looking
for supporting information.
=> After we have planned the content, we’re
now looking for supporting information.
Having treated the environment irresponsibly,
humans now have to suffer.

13’ B Perfect gerunds
Two structures:
Verb + (object) + prep + perfect gerund
Verb + perfect gerund
• Tell Ss that in many cases the perfect gerund is
optional since it is often obvious from the
context which action takes place first so the
simple gerund can be used as well, e.g., She
denied breaking the flower vase.

AUDIO SCRIPT:
Hi, everybody In my talk today, I’ll discuss global warming and its causes and effects on our lives I hope
you can understand that it’s everyone’s duty to help reduce global warming right now
Trang 13You all know the global warming is the rise in the average temperature of the earth due to the increase of
greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide Methane, and water vapour Climate scientists
now believe that humans are mainly responsible for this The burning of fossil fuels such as coal oil and
natural gases and the cutting down of large areas of forests have contributed to the emission of a large
amount of harmful gases into the atmosphere in recent years The thick layer of these gases traps more heat
from the sun which leads to the increase in the earth’s temperature/
Global warming results in climate changes and catastrophic weather patterns such as heat waves, floods
Droughts, and storms, which can affect human lives Hundreds of millions of people may suffer from famine,
water shortage and extreme weather conditions if we do not reduce the rate of global warming This could
also result in a 20- 30% loss of animal and plant species
Being well-informed about the effect of global warming is the first important step towards solving this
problem You’ll be more willing to change your lifestyle if you understand the impact of global warming
Moreover, you’ll be able to inform others and inspire change

AUDIO SCRIPT:
Good morning everyone My name is David I come from Canada and I have been doing an undergraduate
course in Viet Nam for two years Today I’d like to share with you my study-abroad experience
Well, my experience in Viet Nam has been great so far My classes take place at the University of Social
Sciences and Humanities in Ha Noi
I’m taking courses in Viet Nam history and economic development The faculty staff are very friendly and
helpful, and the programme coordinator is very organized, knowledgeable and thorough He is always
available for any emergencies, making sure that I have everything I need
I live with a host family and my own room, which is comfortable and clean, and has Internet
When I first arrived, I was completely over the moon with everything, but then I realized that I was
experiencing a culture shock Luckily, I had the support of my host family Since I came, I’ve been included
in all family gatherings and outings I also took an intensive Vietnamese language course and at the end of
the first year, I was able to freely communicate with my host family in Vietnamese This also helped me
integrate with the local culture Viet Nam is quite a safe country although the roads are a bit dangerous I was
really worried when I used a friend’s motorbike to get around the city
Things are not expensive here so I can easily live on a student’s budget I usually eat breakfast and dinner
with my host family, and lunch with my Vietnamese fellow students Vietnamese food is very healthy and
delicious, and I have my favourite dishes I’ll miss my host mum’s cooking very much when I go back home!
I think this programme of study has been worthwhile I’ll return home as a much stronger, confident and
culturally sensitive person
