Greeting WARM UP (5’) Greeting Checking students’ attendance
T writes 2 sentences on the board and asks Sts to give the comments 1. He says, “I am a student ” 2. He says he is a student T leads in the lesson PRESENTATION (20’) 1.Definition There are 2 ways to express someone’s speech:
ắ ạ ự ế ờ Listen and note down i nguyên văn l ấ ặ
- Direct speech : we repeat the origin of what speaker say i nói ượ ặ c đ t trong d u ngo c kép và sau ấ
-
ờ (Trong l i nói tr c ti p ta nh c l ườ ủ i nói và đ c a ng ấ ặ ẩ ấ 1 d u ph y ho c 2 d u ch m) Indirect speech : there are some changes in the indirect speech. We do not repeat their exact word but we give the meaning of what was said.
Eg : Hoa says , “I want to go home” Hoa said she wanted to go home
1. Reported speech - Repord structures or report sentences consist of 2
clauses . 1st clause is the reporting clause . It contains a reporting verbs as : say , tell or ask.
- The 2nd clause is the reported clause. It contains the
information that we are reporting. The reported clause can be a “that clause”, a “toinfinitive clause”, an “if / whether clause ” or a “whword clause” - Eg: Lan asked me if/ whether I wanted to go
He told us to come earlier next time. She asked me where I lived. - When reporting questions: + (WHQuestions):
E.g.:
ask + O + WHword + S + V She asked, “What is his job?” => She asked what his job was.
+ (Yes/NoQuestions)”
E.g.:
ask + O + if/whether + S + V She asked, “Are you a teacher?” => She asked me if/whether I was a teacher.
2. remember - Tenses in the reported clause do not change after the
present or future reporting verbs.
Eg : He says, “I am a student ” He says he is a student.
- Tenses in the reported clause will change after the past
reporting verbs.
Changes in reported speech

Exercise 1: Read the passage and choose the best answer:
In Southeast Asian, many forests have been cut down to
produce timber and to clear land for farms and industries. The destruction of forests has reduced the living space of wildlife. Much of Asian’s wildlife is also threatened by overhunting. Many people kill animals for food or hunt them to sell to zoo, medical research, and pet trader. Because of habitat destruction and overhunting, many large Asian animals, including elephants, rhinoceroses, and tigers, have become endangered.
Answer: Exercise 1: 1. C 2. A 3. A 4. C 5. D
In China, people have cut down most of the forests for wood, which has caused serious soil erosion. The soil is deposited in rivers and streams, which lowers the quality of the water. The Huang He, or Yellow River, is so named because the lightcoloured soil gives the water a yellowish colour. The soil has also raised the riverbed. As a result, the Huang He often floods, causing great property damage and loss of life along its banks. 1. The living space of wildlife in Southeast Asia_______
A is a threat to farmers B is near farms and industries. C has been reduced when forests are cut down. D is rebuilt when people destroy forests

We must act now before it is too late to do anything about it. Join us now to save the earth. This is too important to ignore. 1.

More than two hundred years ago, the term “environmental pollution” was quite strange to people. They lived healthily, drank pure water, and breathed fresh air. In those days, industry was not welldeveloped. Nowadays, the situation is quite different. The world today is faced with many major threats. The most dangerous threat of all is war, and after the threat of war is pollution. People all over the world are worried about things that are happening to the environment. Actually it is man that is destroying the surroundings with many kinds of wastes from the devices that make human lives more comfortable and convenient. Everybody knows that cars emit dangerous gases that cause poisonous air and cancer, but no one wants to travel on foot or by bicycles. Manufactures know that wastes from factories make water and soil polluted, but they do not want to spend a lot of their money on treating the wastes safely. Scattering rubbish is bad for our health, but no one wants to spend time burying it. Is it worth talking a lot about pollution? 1. More than two hundred years ago ________.
