"Would you like me to get you a taxi?" - “________’’
Yes, please, if it’s no bother
Well, let’s see
That would be delightful. Thanks
Yes, I see
Đáp án: C
Giải thích:
Kiến thức: Tình huống giao tiếp
Dịch: "Bạn có muốn tôi gọi taxi cho bạn không?" - “________’’
A. Thật tuyệt. Cảm ơn
Câu này thể hiện sự đồng ý rất tích cực và vui vẻ ("delightful"), nhưng cách nói này có phần hơi quá lạc quan so với tình huống, vì người hỏi chỉ đưa ra một lời đề nghị mà không chắc chắn là bạn sẽ đồng ý. Ngoài ra, lời cảm ơn ở cuối có thể là một cách trả lời quá mạnh, khiến câu trả lời không hoàn toàn phù hợp với tính chất của câu hỏi.
B. Được rồi, chúng ta hãy xem
Câu này thường được sử dụng khi ai đó đang suy nghĩ hay xem xét một tình huống nào đó. Nó không phải là câu trả lời rõ ràng và đồng ý, mà lại tạo cảm giác bạn chưa quyết định. Vì vậy, đây không phải là câu trả lời hợp lý khi bạn đồng ý với lời đề nghị giúp đỡ.
C. Vâng, làm ơn, nếu không phiền.
Đây là câu trả lời phù hợp nhất. Câu này thể hiện sự đồng ý, nhưng cũng lịch sự và tinh tế khi nói "if it's no bother", cho thấy bạn không muốn làm phiền người khác và cảm ơn họ trước vì sự giúp đỡ. Đây là cách trả lời đúng mực và tế nhị khi nhận sự giúp đỡ từ người khác.
D. Vâng, tôi hiểu rồi.
Câu này thể hiện sự hiểu biết, nhưng không có sự đồng ý rõ ràng để người kia gọi taxi cho bạn. "Yes, I see" có thể chỉ ra rằng bạn hiểu câu hỏi, nhưng không đồng ý hay yêu cầu một hành động cụ thể. Do đó, câu này không phải là câu trả lời đúng trong tình huống này.

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 following questions.
Long ago prehistoric man began to domesticate a number of wild plants and animals for his own use. This not only provided a more abundant food source but also allowed more people to live on a smaller plot of ground. We tend to forget that all of our present-day pets, livestock, and food plants were taken from the wild and developed into the forms we know today.
As centuries passed and human cultures evolved and blossomed, humans began to organise their knowledge of nature into the broad field of natural history. One aspect of early natural history concerned the use of plants for drugs and medicine. The early herbalists sometimes overworked their imaginations in this respect. For example, it was widely believed that a plant or part of a plant that resembles an internal organ would cure ailments of that organ. Thus, an extract made from a heartshaped leaf might be prescribed for a person suffering from heart problems.
Nevertheless, the overall contributions of these early observers provided the rudiments of our present knowledge of drugs and their uses.
What does this passage mainly discuss?
Cures from plants
The beginning of natural history

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 following questions.
Millions of people are using cellphones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cellphones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.
The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.
On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modem scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree.
What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it’s best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often.
The most suitable title for the passage could be________.
“The Reasons Why Mobile Phones Are Popular”
“Mobile Phones. A Must of Our Time”
“The Way Mobile Phones Work”
“Technological Innovations and Their Price”

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 following questions.
Millions of people are using cellphones today. In many places, it is actually considered unusual not to use one. In many countries, cellphones are very popular with young people. They find that the phones are more than a means of communication - having a mobile phone shows that they are cool and connected.
The explosion in mobile phone use around the world has made some health professionals worried. Some doctors are concerned that in the future many people may suffer health problems from the use of mobile phones. In England, there has been a serious debate about this issue. Mobile phone companies are worried about the negative publicity of such ideas. They say that there is no proof that mobile phones are bad for your health.
On the other hand, medical studies have shown changes in the brain cells of some people who use mobile phones. Signs of change in the tissues of the brain and head can be detected with modem scanning equipment. In one case, a traveling salesman had to retire at young age because of serious memory loss. He couldn't remember even simple tasks. He would often forget the name of his own son. This man used to talk on his mobile phone for about six hours a day, every day of his working week, for a couple of years. His family doctor blamed his mobile phone use, but his employer's doctor didn't agree.
What is it that makes mobile phones potentially harmful? The answer is radiation. High-tech machines can detect very small amounts of radiation from mobile phones. Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation, but they say the amount is too small to worry about. As the discussion about their safety continues, it appears that it’s best to use mobile phones less often. Use your regular phone if you want to talk for a long time. Use your mobile phone only when you really need it. Mobile phones can be very useful and convenient, especially in emergencies. In the future, mobile phones may have a warning label that says they are bad for your health. So for now, it's wise not to use your mobile phone too often.
