3. A. chooses B. horses C. rises D. roses

B. RELATIVE CLAUSES
Mệnh đề quan hệ còn được gọi là mệnh đề tính ngữ (adjective clause) vì nó được dùng để bổ
nghĩa cho danh từ đứng trước nó. Mệnh đề này được nối với mệnh đề chính bởi các đại từ quan hệ
Who, Whom, Which, Whose, That hoặc các phó từ quan hệ như When, Where, Why.
1. Cách dùng:
* Who: Đại từ quan hệ đứng sau danh từ chỉ người, làm chủ ngữ cho động từ sau nó. (sau
who phải là một động từ)
VD: The women who lives next door is very friendly.

* Whom: Đại từ quan hệ đứng sau danh từ chỉ người, làm tân ngữ cho động từ sau nó. Có khi
người ta dùng Who thay cho Whom. (sau whom phải là một đại từ khác, không phải là một động
từ )
VD: The man whom you saw yesterday is my uncle. (you là một đại từ)


* Which: Đại từ quan hệ đứng sau danh từ chỉ con vật, đồ vật làm chủ ngữ hoặc tân ngữ cho
động từ sau nó. (chỉ cần thấy trước which là môt danh từ chỉ vật)
VD: The book which has some wonderful pictures is about Africa.
The dog which you gave me is lovely.
* That: Đại từ quan hệ chỉ cả người, vật, đồ vật dùng thay cho Who, Whom, Which, trong
mệnh đề quan hệ thuộc loại Restrictive clauses (mệnh đề hạn định).
VD: The book that you lent me is interesting.
This is the man that I met in Paris last month.


Lưu ý: - That thường được dùng sau danh từ có tính từ so sánh bậc nhất (the best, the
most…; everybody, anybody, nobody, somebody, everything, something…)
VD: He’s the best teacher that I have ever know.
- That được dùng khi danh từ trước nó chỉ cả người, vật.
VD: I can see a girl and her dog that are running in the park.
- That không bao giờ được dùng trong mệnh đề không hạn định, và không đứng sau
giới từ, that dùng trong mệnh đề quan hệ nhằm xác định nghĩa cho danh từ đứng trước và không tách
rời mệnh đề chính bằng các 2 dấu phẩy. Nếu Who, Whom, Which, That làm tân ngữ thì ta có thể bỏ
đi.
VD: She’s the person who(m) I met at the party.
She ’s the person I met at the party.
Have you ever seen the dress that I’ve just bought?
Have you ever seen the dress I’ve just bought?

* Whose: Đại từ quan hệ đứng sau danh từ chỉ người và thay cho tính từ sở hữu trước danh từ.
Khi dùng cho vật thì = of which.
VD: I’ve got a friend whose brother is an actor.
John found a cat whose leg was broken.

* When: Phó từ quan hệ đứng sau từ chỉ thời gian dùng để thay thế cho (at/on/in) which, then.
VD: I’ll never forget the day when (on which) I met her.
That was the time when (at which) he managed the company.

* Where: Phó từ quan hệ đứng sau từ chỉ nơi chốn dùng để thay cho at/on/in) which, there.
VD: I went to the office where (in which) my father works.
Dalat is the place where (to which) I like to come.
* Why: Phó từ quan hệ đứng sau từ chỉ lí do dùng để thay cho “the reason”.
VD: I don’t understand the reason why he was late.

*Why: là phó từ quan hệ đứng sau từ chỉ lý do

VD: this is the reasons why they didn’t come

2. Phân biệt: Có 2 loại mệnh đề quan hệ
a. Restrictive Clauses (mệnh đề hạn định): Không có mệnh đề này, câu không đủ nghĩa vì
đứng trước chưa xác định.VD: I don’t know the man who is talking to Mary.
The picture which Tom is looking at is beautiful.
b. Non-Restrictive Clauses (mệnh đề không hạn định): không có mệnh đề này, câu vẫn đủ
nghĩa khi từ đứng trước đã xác định. Trước danh từ thường có this, that, these, my, your…, hoặc tên
riêng. Nó ngăn cách với mệnh đề chính bằng các dấu phẩy.
Vd: His father, who is working in a shoe factory, will retire next year.
I had a personal talk with Jane, who wanted to take that job.

3. Dạng rút gọn của mệnh đề quan hệ (Reduced form of relative clauses)

+ Rút gọn bằng cách dùng Participle phrase (cụm phân từ). Có 2 loại participle phrase:
- Present participle phrase (phân từ hiện tại): bắt đầu bằng V-ing.
- Past participle phrase (phân từ quá khứ): bắt đầu bằng p.p (V-ed/V3)
Nếu động từ trong mệnh đề quan hệ ở thể chủ động (active), ta dùng Present participle phrase.
VD: Do you know the boy who broke the window yesterday?
Do you know the boy broking the window yesterday?
Nếu động từ trong mệnh đề quan hệ ở thể bị động (passive) ta dùng Past participle phrase.
VD: The students who were punished by the teacher are lazy.
The students punished by the teacher are lazy.
Mệnh đề quan hệ có thể rút gọn bằng cách dùng To – inf hoặc Infinitive phrase.
VD: English is an important language which we have to master.
English is an important language to master.

C. Can, could and be able to

A Chúng ta dùng can để nói một sự việc có thể xảy ra hay ai đó có khả năng làm được việc gì.

Chúng ta dùng can+infinitive (can do/can see… )
We can see the lake from our bedroom window.
Chúng ta có thể nhìn thấy cái hồ từ cửa sổ phòng ngủ.
Can you speak any foreign languages?
Bạn có nói được một ngoại ngữ nào không?
I can come and see you tomorrow if you like.
Tôi có thể đến thăm bạn vào ngày mai nếu bạn muốn.

Dạng phủ định của can là can’t (=cannot)
I’m afraid I can’t come to the party on Friday.
Tôi e rằng tôi không thể đi dự tiệc vào ngày thứ sáu.

B (Be) able to… có thể thay thế được cho can (nhưng can vẫn được dùng nhiều hơn)
Are you able to speak any foreign languages?
Bạn có thể nói được một ngoại ngữ nào không?

Nhưng can chỉ có hai dạng can (present) và could (past) nên khi cần thiết chúng ta phải dùng
(Be) able to… Hãy so sánh:
I can’t sleep.
Tôi không ngủ được.
Nhưng
I haven’t been able to sleep recently. (can không có present perfect)
Gần đây tôi không ngủ được.

Tom can come tomorrow.
Ngày mai Tom có thể đến.
Nhưng
Tom might be able to come tomorrow. (can không có infinitive)
Ngày mai Tom có khả năng sẽ đến.

C Could và was able to…
Đôi khi could là dạng quá khứ của can. Chúng ta dùng could đặc biệt với:
see hear smell taste feel remember understand
When we went into the house, we could smell burning.
Khi chúng tôi đi vào căn nhà, chúng tôi có thể ngửi được mùi cháy.

She spoke in a very low voice, but I could understand what she said.
Cô ấy đã nói giọng rất trầm, nhưng tôi có thể hiểu cô ấy nói gì.

Chúng ta dùng could để diễn tả ai đó là có khả năng nói chung hay được phép để làm điều gì
đó.
My grandfather could speak five languages.
Ông tôi có thể nói được năm ngoại ngữ
We were completely free. We could do what we wanted. (= we were allowed to do…)
Chúng ta đã hoàn toàn tự do. Chúng ta có thể làm những gì mà chúng ta muốn (= chúng ta đã được
phép làm…)

D Chúng ta dùng could để chỉ khả năng nói chung (general ability). Nhưng để đề cập tới một
sự việc xảy ra trong một tình huống đặc biệt (particular situation), chúng ta dùng was/were
able to… (không dùng could)
The fire spread through the building quickly but everybody was able to escape or … everybody
managed to escape (but not ‘could escape’)
Ngọn lửa lan nhanh trong tòa nhà nhưng mọi người đã có thể chạy thoát được.
They didn’t want to come with us at first but we managed to persuade them or … we were able to
persuade them (but not ‘could persuade’)
Lúc đầu họ không muốn đến nhưng sau đó chúng tôi đã thuyết phục được họ.

E Hãy so sánh:
Jack was an excellent tennis player. He could beat anybody. (= He had the general ability to beat
anybody)

Jack là một vận động viên quần vợt cừ khôi. Anh ấy có thể đánh bại bất cứ ai. (=anh ấy có một khả
năng nói chung là đánh bại bất cứ ai)
Nhưng
Jack and Alf had a game of tennis yesterday. Alf played very well but in the end Jack managed to
beat him or… was able to beat him (= he managed to beat him in this particular game)
Jack và Alf đã thi đấu quần vợt với nhau ngày hôm qua. Alf đã chơi rất hay nhưng cuối cùng Jack đã
có thể hạ được Alf. (= Jack đã thắng được anh ấy trong trận đấu đặc biệt này)

Dạng phủ định couldn’t (could not) có thể được dùng cho tất cả các trường hợp:
My grandfather couldn’t swim.
Ông tôi không biết bơi.
We tried hard but we couldn’t persuade them to come with us.
Chúng tôi đã cố gắng rất nhiều nhưng không thể nào thuyết phục họ đến với chúng tôi được.
Alf played well but he couldn’t beat Jack.
Alf đã chơi rất hay nhưng không thể thắng được Jack

The natural world is under violent assault from man.
The seas and rivers are being poisoned by radioactive wastes, by chemical discharges and by the
dumping of dangerous toxins and raw sewage. The air we breathe is polluted by smoke and fumes
from factories and motor vehicles; even the rain is poisoned.
It's little wonder forests and lakes are being destroyed and everywhere wildlife is disappearing.
Yet the destruction continues.
Governments and industries throughout the world are intensifying their efforts to extract the
earth's mineral riches and to plunder its living resources. The great rainforests and the frozen

continents alike are seriously threatened. And this despite the warnings of the scientific community
and the deep concern of millions of ordinary people.
Despite the fact, too, that we can create environmentally-clean industries, harness the power of
the sun, wind and waves for our energy needs and manage the finite resources of the Earth in a way
that will safeguard our future and protect all the rich variety of life forms which share this planet
with us.
But there is still hope. The forces of destruction are being challenged across the globe - and at
the spearhead of this challenge is Greenpeace.
Wherever the environment is in danger, Greenpeace has made a stand.
Its scientific presentations and peaceful direct actions at sea and on land have shocked governments
and industri1es into an awareness that Greenpeace will not allow the natural world to be destroyed.
Those actions, too, have won the admiration and support of millions.
Now you can strengthen the thin green line; you can make your voice heard in defence of the
living world by joining Greenpeace today. Thank God someone's making waves.

A. Read the text carefully then choose the correct answers.
Since the world became industrialized, the number of animal species that have either become
extinct or have neared extinction has increaseD. Bengal tigers, for instance, which 'once roamed the
jungles in vast numbers, now number only about 2,300. By the year 2025, it is estimated that they
will become extinct.

What is alarming about the case of the Bengal tiger is that this extinction will have been caused
almost entirely by poachers who, according to some sources, are not always interested in material
gain but in personal gratification. This is an example of the callousness that is contributing to the
problem of extinction. Animals such as the Bengal tiger, as well as other endangered species, are
valuable parts of the world's ecosystem. International laws protecting these animals must be enacted
to ensure their survival - and the survival of our planet.
Countries around the world have begun to deal with the problem in various ways. Some
countries, in an effort to circumvent the problem, have allocated large amounts of land to animal
reserves. They then charge admission prices to help defray the costs of maintaining the parks, and
they often must also depend on world organizations for support. This money enables them to invest
in equipment and patrols to protect the animals. Another response to the increase in animal
extinction is an international boycott of products made from endangered species. This has' had some
effect, but by itself It will not prevent animals from being hunted and killed.
