CHUYÊN ĐỀ-TRƯỜNG HỌC TRỰC TUYẾN 2

TOPIC/ CHỦ ĐỀ: PEOPLE SAY THAT…/ IT IS SAID THAT…
NGƯỜI TA NÓI RẰNG…/NGƯỜI TA BẢO RẰNG…
(4 PERIODS / TIẾT)
A. CONTENT/ NỘI DUNG:
I. INTRODUCTION/ GIỚI THIỆU:
We often want to tell someone what another person has said to us. In most cases we do not report the exact
words that we hear. Instead we make some changes so that what we say sounds more natural. This is called
reported speech (or indirect speech). Among forms of reported speech is the structure: PEOPLE SAY
THAT…/ IT IS SAID THAT… Here are some examples:
Henry is very old. Nobody knows exactly how old he is, but: It is said that he is 108 years old. Or
He is said to be 108 years old. Cả hai câu này đều có nghĩa: "People said that he is 108 years old."
II. USAGE/ CÁCH SỬ DỤNG:
Bạn có thể dùng cấu trúc này với một số động từ khác, đặc biệt là với: think, believe, consider, report, know,
expect, allege, understand… So sánh hai cấu trúc sau:
Cathy works very hard. It is said that she works 16 hours a day.
or She is said to work 16 hours a day.
The police are looking for a missing boy. It is believed that the boy is wearing a white pullover and
blue jeans.
or The boy is believed to be wearing a white pullover and blue jeans.
The strike started three weeks ago. It is expected that it will end soon
or The strike is expected to end soon.
A friend of mine has been arrested. It is alleged that he kicked a policeman.
or He is alleged to have kicked a policeman.
Those two houses belong to the same family.*Hai ngôi nhà đó thuộc về cùng một gia đình} It is said
that there is a secret tunnel between them.
or There is said to be a secret tunnel between them.
Những cấu trúc này thường được dùng trong việc tường thuật hay đưa tin tức. Ví dụ trong bản tin về một tai
nạn. · 'It is reported that two people were injured in the explosion' or 'Two people are reported to have been
injured in the explosion.'
(Be) supposed to: Đôi khi it is supposed to = it is said to

· Let’s go and see that film. It’s supposed to be very good. (=it is said to be very good)
· "Why was he arrested?" "He’s supposed to have kicked a policeman." (He is said to have kicked a
policeman)
Nhưng đôi khi supposed to có một nghĩa khác. "Something is supposed to happen" = Một việc gì đó
đã được sắp xếp, dự định hay mong chờ xảy ra. Thường thì điều này khác với những gì thực sự xảy
ra:
· I’d better hurry. It’s nearly 8 o’clock and I’m supposed to be meeting Ann at 8.15.(= I have arranged
to meet Ann. I said I would meet her)
· The train was supposed to arrive at 11.30 but it was an hour late. (=the train was expected to arrive
at 11.30 according to the timetable)
· You were supposed to clean the windows. Why didn’t you do it? “You’re not supposed to do
something” = it is not allowed or advisable for you to do it:
· “You’re not supposed to park your car here. It’s private parking only.
· Mr Bond is much better after his illness but he’s still not supposed to do any heavy work. (his doctor
has advised him not to )

Hoạt động 3: ÁP DỤNG THỰC TẾ
(hình thức tổ chức dạy học: cả lớp/ cá nhân)
- GV cung cấp thông tin 7: Thảo luận: Passive constructions “It is said,” “It is expected” etc
Question: Are these passive constructions common now? One native speaker sad to me that they are
extremely formal.
It is believed that Jesus was born, rose from the dead, and crucified and resurrected.
It is expected that the delegates will endorse the existing peace plan of the European Community.
It is alleged that he pays bribes to the Italian government or exports aphrodisiacs.
It is said that the gun can be fired twenty times in one minute.
Answer
Your examples are all entirely common, but also slightly formal. They might also be considered slightly
akward.
In casual speech you would more likely say, "they believe that " or "they say that ", etc. They is used as a

kind of catch-all subject when the actual subject is unknown.
In careful writing you might prefer to find some way to provide an actual subject for these sentences. For
example,
Christians believe that Jesus was born, crucified, and resurrected.
Prosecutors allege that he pays bribes.
Etc.

Exactly; in some of the OP's sentences, there's an implication that everyone believes/says/alleges [x],
and that's not true. I would say that the 2nd and 4th examples could reasonably remain as they are; it's
fair to assume that most people expect a certain result from the delegation, and "It is said that" is
actually a set phrase, I think. But I agree that the 1st and 3rd sentences really need a subject to be less
awkward.

The place I usually see "it is said " is in trade magazines where they've just copy-and-pasted text from
a company's press release in to an "article". They tack "It is said" in front of each substantial claim to
distance themselves from the claim. But it makes for some really awkward reading.

@ThePhoton This is sometimes called using weasel words. (I think Wikipedia popularized the term, but
if not, then Wikipedia is at least where I first ran into it.)
- GV cung cấp thông tin 8: It is said that, He is said to, and sometimes (be) supposed to have the
meaning "people say " and they are often used in news reports.
i.e. An old lady in my town died last week, and people say that she gave a lot of money to charity.
It is said that He is said to (be) supposed to
It is said that she gave a lot of
money to charity.
She is said to have given a lot of money
to charity.
She is supposed to have given
a lot of money to charity.
Some other verbs are also

used in this construction:
thought, believed, considered, reported,
known, expected, alleged, understood
But (be) supposed to also has a few other meanings. It can also mean something that is planned,
arranged, or expected.
i.e. I have to go home now because I'm supposed to make dinner for my little sister.
not supposed to is used for things that are not allowed or not advisable.
i.e. You're not supposed to go outside with your hair wet.
- GV cung cấp thông tin 9: If the predicate of the passive sentence is a verb transitive like:
believe,
think, find, say, report, consider, understand, acknowledge, expect, tell, know
then you can change
the active sentence into passive using two ways. Look at the examples:
a) People say that he is handsome. (in the present)
∗It is said that he is handsome.
∗He is said to be handsome. (to + V1)
b) They knew he had an idea.
∗It was known that he had an idea.
∗He was known to have had an idea. (to + have V3)
These are formal structures. They are often used in news reports and on TV.
