việc "we’ll have lunch" sẽ xảy ra.
2. Present simple for future events

Thì hiện tại đơn mang ý nghĩa tương lai: thì hiện tại đơn không chỉ được sử dụng để diễn tả một sự thật,
một thói quen hoặc một tình huống không thay đổi trong hiện tại mà còn có thể diễn đạt ý nghĩa về
tương lai. Đặc biệt khi nói về các lịch trình hoặc kế hoạch đã được xác định trước.
Ex: "I have to go now. My art lesson starts at one o’clock." Trong trường hợp này, "starts" mặc dù là
thì hiện tại đơn, nhưng lại diễn đạt một sự kiện xảy ra trong tương lai theo lịch trình hoặc kế hoạch.
"The train leaves at 4:30, so we still have a lot of time." Tại đây, "leaves" cho biết lịch trình tàu chạy,
dù rằng sự kiện đó sẽ xảy ra trong tương lai.
3. The past continuous: S + was/ were + V-ing…..
Quá khứ tiếp diễn là một thì quan trọng dùng để diễn đạt:
+ Một hành động đang xảy ra vào một thời điểm cụ thể trong quá khứ.
Ex: "At 7 pm yesterday, I was watching a movie." Tại thời điểm 7 giờ tối ngày hôm qua, hành
động "watch a movie" đang diễn ra.
+Một hành động trong quá khứ đang diễn ra khi một hành động khác xen vào.
Ex: "I was reading a book when the phone rang." Tại đây, hành động "read a book" đang diễn ra khi
hành động "the phone rang" xen vào.
+ Lưu ý: Ta có thể dùng "when" trước thì quá khứ đơn, và dùng "while" trước thì quá khứ tiêp diễn.
Ex: When I arrived, they were having dinner. Hoặc I arrived while they were having dinner.
- + Hai hành động song song đang xảy ra vào một thời điểm cụ thể trong quá khứ.
Ex: "At 7 pm yesterday, I was watching a movie while my mother was cooking dinner." Tại thời điểm 7

II. READING
A. Read the text and choose the best answer to each question
Tsunamis, whose name derives from the Japanese expression for ʻhigh wave in a harbourʼ, are giant
sea waves. These waves are quite different from storm surges. They are also referred to by the general
public as tidal waves although they have nothing to do with tides. Scientists often refer to them as
seismic sea waves, which is far more appropriate because they are often the result of undersea seismic
activity. Tsunamis can be caused when the sea floor suddenly moves, during an underwater earthquake
or volcano, and the water above the moving earth is suddenly displaced. This sudden shift of water
sets off a series of waves. These waves can travel great distances, at speeds close to 700 kilometres per
- hour. In the open ocean, tsunami waves are not very high, often no more than one or two metres. It is
when they hit the shallow waters near the coast that they increase in height, possibly up to 40 metres.

A.eruption B.tides C.tsunamis D.storm surges

A.they are as another name for tsunamis B.they are caused by sudden changes in high and low tides
C.this term is not used by the scientist D.the name refer to the same phenomenon as seismic sea waves
3. The word ʻthemʼin the passage refers to .
A.tidal waves B.tsunamis C.storm surges D.sea waves
4. The word ʻdisplacedʼ in the passage is closest in meaning to ……………..
A.located B.not pleased C.filtered D.moved
5. The word ʻshallowʼin the passage mostly means …… .
A.not clear B.tidal C.coastal D.not deep
6. It can be understood from the passage that tsunamis ……….……..
A. cause severe damage in the middle of the ocean
B.generally reach heights greater than 40 metres.
C. are far more dangerous on the coast than in the open ocean
D.are often identified by ships on ocean
B. Choose the correct option (A, B, C or D) for each gap to complete the following letter

C. Read the paragraph, then decide whether the statements are true (T) or false (F)
There are three main kinds of pollution – air pollution, water pollution, and noise pollution. Air, which
is the most important element of our environment for our survival, can be polluted in many ways.
Smoke in the air from mills, factories, and industry contains carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and
methane, which are all poisonous gases. This leads to health problems like asthma and lung diseases,
- and the thinning of the ozone layer, which protects us from harmful UV rays. China, the USA, Russia,
India, Mexico, and Japan are the world leaders in air pollution emissions. Water is also polluted by the
discharge of commercial and industrial waste into surface water. Sewage in drinking water is another
cause of water pollution as it contains germs and viruses. The noise of vehicles, mills, and factories can
be really unbearable. This kind of constant sound also causes headaches, tension, mental stress, and
migraines. People living next to a building site where there is too much noise can become sick, as they
cannot sleep or relax. This is called noisepollution.
Choose True / False
1. Air pollution, water pollution, and soil pollution are three main kinds of pollution.
2. Air plays the most important role in our survival.
3. Carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and methane are poisonous gases.
4. The ozone layer helps to protect people from harmful UV rays.
