B. reduce /rɪˈdjuːs/ (v): giảm bớt, thu nhỏ
C. save /seɪv/ (v): tiết kiệm, cứu

Gets
Goes
Comes
reaches
Đáp án: C
Giải thích:
A. gets /ɡets/ (v): có được
B. goes /ɡəʊz/ (v): đi
C. comes /kʌmz/ (v): đến từ, xuất phát từ, bắt nguồn từ
D. reaches /riːtʃiz/ (v): đạt đến
Ta có cụm “comes from” nghĩa là “bắt nguồn từ”, phù hợp với ngữ cảnh nói về nguồn gốc của từ “Halloween”.
Dịch: Từ “Halloween” bắt nguồn từ “All Hallows’ Eve”.
On this night, children dress up in special costumes, put (21)______ masks, and go door to door saying “trick-or-treat” to get candy.
In
Off
Out
On
Đáp án: D
Giải thích:
A. in (prep): trong → sai vì “put in” nghĩa là đặt vào bên trong, không phù hợp với việc đeo mặt nạ.
B. off (prep): tắt, khỏi → sai vì “put off” có nghĩa là trì hoãn, không phù hợp với ngữ cảnh.
C. out (prep): ra ngoài → sai vì “put out” có nghĩa là dập tắt (lửa), không liên quan đến việc đeo mặt nạ.
D. on (prep): trên → đúng vì “put on a mask” là cụm từ đúng nghĩa, cố định “đeo mặt nạ”.
Dịch: Vào đêm này, trẻ em mặc trang phục đặc biệt, đeo mặt nạ, và đi từng nhà nói “trick-or-treat” để xin kẹo.
Many people decorate their homes with paper ghosts, black cats or witches to give their houses a (22) ______ look.
Bored
Relaxed
Careful
Scary
Đáp án: D
Giải thích:
A. bored /bɔːd/ (adj): chán nản → sai vì không liên quan đến trang trí Halloween.
B. relaxed /rɪˈlækst/ (adj): thư giãn → sai vì Halloween không có không khí thư giãn.
C. careful /ˈkeəfl/ (adj): cẩn thận → sai vì không mô tả đúng phong cách trang trí Halloween.
D. scary /ˈskeəri/ (adj): đáng sợ → đúng vì lễ hội Halloween có đặc trưng là những hình ảnh ma quái, ghê rợn.
Dịch: Nhiều người trang trí nhà cửa bằng những con ma giấy, mèo đen hoặc phù thủy để ngôi nhà trông đáng sợ hơn.
They carve scary faces on pumpkins, and (23)______ candles inside the pumpkins.
Light
To light
Lighting
Lighted
Đáp án: A
Giải thích:
- Ta thấy hai vế của câu được nối với nhau bằng liên từ “and”. Theo quy tắc ngữ pháp, các thành phần được liên kết bởi các liên từ như “and”, “or”, “but” cần phải có cùng dạng ngữ pháp. Ở vế đầu của câu, có động từ “carve” là động từ nguyên thể không có “to” (bare infinitive) đi sau chủ ngữ “They”. Vì vậy, để đảm bảo sự song song về mặt ngữ pháp, vế sau cũng phải sử dụng động từ nguyên thể không có “to” => A đúng.
Dịch: Họ khắc khuôn mặt đáng sợ trên bí ngô và thắp nến bên trong.
In some places, both children and adults can make (24)______ of haunted houses.
parts
tours
turns
prizes
Đáp án: B
Giải thích:
A. parts /pɑːts/ (n): phần → sai vì “parts of haunted houses” có nghĩa là “những phần của ngôi nhà ma ám”, không phù hợp với động từ “make”. Câu gốc muốn nói về việc tham quan hoặc trải nghiệm ngôi nhà ma chứ không phải nói về “các phần” của nó.
B. tours /tʊə(r)z/ (n): chuyến tham quan → đúng vì “make a tour of somewhere” là một cách diễn đạt đúng, mang nghĩa “thực hiện một chuyến tham quan”. Cụm “tours of haunted houses” có nghĩa là “những chuyến tham quan nhà ma”, rất phù hợp với ngữ cảnh của câu.
C. turns /tɜːnz/ (n): lần, lượt → sai vì từ “turns” chỉ lượt chơi hoặc sự thay phiên, không phù hợp để diễn tả việc trải nghiệm nhà ma.
D. prizes /praɪziz/ (n): giải thưởng → sai vì ngữ cảnh không nói về việc nhận thưởng.
Dịch: Ở một số nơi, cả trẻ em và người lớn đều có thể tham quan những ngôi nhà ma ám.
Dịch bài đọc:
Ở nhiều nước phương Tây, mọi người tổ chức lễ Halloween vào ngày 31 tháng 10. Từ “Halloween” bắt nguồn từ “All Hallows’ Eve”. Đây là đêm trước ngày Lễ Các Thánh, một ngày lễ tôn giáo ở một số nơi trên thế giới. Vào đêm này, trẻ em mặc trang phục đặc biệt, đeo mặt nạ, và đi từng nhà nói “trick-or-treat” để xin kẹo. Nhiều người trang trí nhà cửa bằng những con ma giấy, mèo đen hoặc phù thủy để ngôi nhà trông đáng sợ hơn. Họ cũng trang trí nhà với đèn lồng bí ngô. Họ khắc khuôn mặt đáng sợ trên bí ngô và thắp nến bên trong. Ở một số nơi, cả trẻ em và người lớn đều có thể tham quan những ngôi nhà ma ám. Tất cả họ đều có vẻ rất hào hứng với lễ hội này.

The boy hasn’t visited his grandparents for two months.
Đáp án: The boy last visited his grandparents 2 months ago.
Giải thích:
Cậu bé đã không thăm bà trong 2 tháng nay rồi.
Dựa vào câu gốc có thể suy ra “Cậu bé tới thăm bà lần cuối vào 2 tháng trước” nên ta dùng thì quá khứ đơn với từ cho trong ngoặc (“ago”) để viết lại câu.
khoảng thời gian + ago: cách đây bao lâu
Khái quát cấu trúc viết lại câu giữa thì hiện tại hoàn thành và thì quá khứ đơn:
S + have/has not + done something + since/for + thời gian
= S last did something + thời gian + ago.
