* CÁCH GIẢI BÀI TẬP DÙNG ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ WHO ,WHICH...
DẠNG 1 : NỐI 2 CÂU
Dạng này đề bài người ta cho 2 câu riêng biệt và yêu cầu mình dùng đại từ quan hệ nối chúng lại
với nhau. Các bước làm dạng này như sau:
Bước 1 : Chọn 2 từ giống nhau ở 2 câu : Câu đầu phải chọn danh từ, câu sau thường là đại từ ( he
,she ,it ,they ...)
Ex: The man is my father. You met him yesterday.
Bước 2 : Đặt who,which... vào sau danh từ mà nó thay thế
Bước 3 : Đem nguyên câu sau đặt ngay phía sau danh từ đã chọn ở câu trước bỏ đi từ mà who ,
which .. thay thế
The man is my father. whom You met yesterday
-> The man whom you met yesterday is my father
DẠNG 2 : ĐIỀN VÀO CHỔ TRỐNG
Dạng này đề bài người ta cho sẳn một câu đã được nối với nhau nhưng chừa chỗ trống để thí sinh
điền đại từ quan hệ vào. Các bước làm dạng này như sau:
+ Nhìn danh từ phía trước (kế bên chỗ trống) xem người hay vật ( hoặc cả hai ):
- Nếu vật thì ta điền WHICH / THAT
The dog __________ runs .....( thấy phía trước là dog nên dùng WHICH / THAT)
Nếu là : REASON, CAUSE thì dùng WHY
The reason ________ he came ... ( dùng WHY )
-Nếu là thời gian thì dùng WHEN
-Nếu là nơi chốn thì dùng WHERE
Lưu ý :
- WHEN , WHERE , WHY không làm chủ từ, do đó nếu ta thấy phía sau chưa có chủ từ thì ta
phải dùng WHICH / THAT chứ không được dùng WHEN , WHERE , WHY.
Ex: Do you know the city _.............______ is near here ?
Ta nhận thấy city là nơi chốn, nhưng chớ vội vàng mà điền WHERE vào nhé. Hãy nhìn tiếp phía
sau và ta thấy kế bên nó là IS ( động từ ) tức là chữ IS đó chưa có chủ từ, và chữ mà ta điền vào
sẽ làm chủ từ cho nó -> không thể điền WHERE mà phải dùng WHICH /THAT
-> Do you know the city __WHICH / THAT_____ is near here ?
- Nếu ta thấy rõ ràng là thời gian, nơi chốn nhưng xem kỹ phía sau động từ người ta có chừa lại
giới từ hay không, nếu có thì không được dùng WHEN , WHERE, WHY mà phải dùng WHICH /
THAT
Ex: The house ________ I live in is nice .
Ta thấy house là nơi chốn, nhưng chớ vội điền WHERE nhé, nhìn sau thấy người ta còn chừa lại
giới từ IN nên phải dùng WHICH /THAT
-> The house ___which/that_____ I live in is nice.
- Nhưng đôi khi người ta lại đem giới từ lên để trước thì cũng không được dùng WHERE nữa nhé
:
Ex: The house in ___which_____ I live is nice
- Nếu là NGƯỜI thì ta tiếp tục nhìn phía sau xem có chủ từ chưa ? nếu có chủ từ rồi thì ta dùng
WHOM / THAT, nếu chưa có chủ từ thì ta điền WHO / THAT.
- Lưu ý : Nếu thấy phía sau kế bên chổ trống là một danh từ trơ trọi thì phải xem xét nghĩa xem
có phải là sở hửu không, nếu phải thì dùng WHOSE .
Ex: The man ________son studies at .....
Ta thấy chữ SON đứng một mình không có a ,the ,.. gì cả nên nghi là sở hữu, dịch thử thấy đúng
là sở hữu dùng WHOSE (người đàn ông mà con trai của ông ta . .. )
=> The man ____( whose )____son studies at .....
- Nếu phía trước vừa có người + vật thì phải dùng THAT

20
Ex: The man and his dog THAT ....
* NHỮNG LƯU Ý KHI DÙNG ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ ( WHO ,WHICH ,WHOM.... )
1. Khi nào dùng dấu phẩy ?
- Khi danh từ đứng trước who ,which, whom... là :
+ Danh từ riêng ,tên
Ha Noi, which ....
Mary, who is ...
+ Có this ,that ,these ,those đứng trước danh từ :
This book, which ....
+ Có sở hữu đứng trước danh từ :
My mother, who is ....
+ Là vật duy nhất ai cũng biết : sun ( mặt trời ), moon ( mặt trăng )
The Sun, which ...
2. Đặt dấu phẩy ở đâu ?
- Nếu mệnh đề quan hệ ở giữa thì dùng 2 dấu phẩy đặt ở đầu và cuối mệnh đề
Ex: My mother , who is a cook , cooks very well.
- Nếu mệnh đề quan hệ ở cuối thì dùng một dấu phẩy đặt ở đầu mệnh đề ,cuối mệnh đề
dùng dấu chấm .
Ex: This is my mother, who is a cook .
3. Khi nào có thể lược bỏ đại từ quan hệ WHO ,WHICH ,WHOM...
- Khi nó làm túc từ và phía trước nó không có dấu phẩy ,không có giới từ ( whose không được bỏ
)
This is the book which I buy.
Ta thấy which là túc từ ( chủ từ là I ,động từ là buy ) ,phía trước không có phẩy hay giới từ gì cả
nên có thể bỏ which đi :
-> This is the book I buy.

TOPIC 12: READING COMPREHENSION

I. Read the passage and decide if the following statements are TRUE or FALSE :
ΠDear Ann,
I am very glad to go to Mexico for my vacation. The food is quite tasty and there is fresh
fruit everywhere. I have tried several of the local specialties. A lot of fruit is too spicy for me but
47
I am familiar with it now. I had a wonderful baked fish last night. I have also visited many
famous places and have gone on some excursions. It’s really interesting. It has been cold and
rainy most of the time, but I don’t mind as long as I can enjoy a warm meal and a cup of coffee
with some friend at a Mexican coffee shop.
I wish you were here with me now. You will love it.
Regard, Helen.
1. Helen is going on a holiday with her family in Mexico.
2. Helen used to eat spicy food.
3. The weather has been cold and wet.
4. She likes having warm meal and a cup of coffee with Ann in Mexico.

 Canada is the world’s largest countries, but its population is not very large. Canada is in the
North America and its capital is Ottawa. It is rich in natural resources. In southern Canada, the
land is very good for farming and Canada exports a lot of wheat. In the eighteenth century, there
were wars between Britain and French, and Canada came under British rule. Since 1931, English
and French are both official languages in Canada.
1. Canada is densely populated country.
2. Canada is to the north of America.
3. The land in Canada is very poor.
4. Two official languages are spoken in Canada.

3 Why did English become the international language ? In the middle 19th century, French was
the international language. The Britain became powerful in the world. England stated colonies in
the North Africa and India in the 17th century. By 1900, England also had colonies in other parts
of Asia, Africa and South Pacific. The people in colonies had to use English. Slowly it became
more important than French internationally. After the Second World War, the United States
became very powerful, and even more people began to learn English.
1. English was the most international language in the 19th century.
2. English slowly became more important than French.
3. More and more people began to study English.
4. Students learn English as a second language in Vietnam.

4. Rice is a kind of grass. There are more than seven kinds of rice. Most kinds are water
plants. Farmers grow rice in many countries, even in the southern part of the United States and
Eastern Australia. No one really knows where rice came from. Some scientists think it started to
be grown in two places. They think that one kind of rice grew in Southern Asia thousands of
years ago. Someone in China wrote about it almost five thousand years ago. Another kind
probably grew in West Africa. Other scientists think rice came from India, and Indian travelers
took it to others part of the world.
1. There are only three kind of rice.
2. They grew rice in Southern Asia hundreds of years ago.
3. Nobody knows where rice came from.
4. According to the passage, Indian travelers took maize to the other part of the world.

5 It is estimated that about 200 million people who use the Internet network around the world.
Most people use the Internet to get information or for entertainment. A new study, however, says
that almost 6% of Internet users are using it so often that it is seriously harming their lives. The
study says some people may find it difficult to stop using the Internet because they have become
addicted. Someone who is addicted finds it extremely difficult to stop an activity. According to
Mr. Greenfield, a psychologist, 30% internet users say that they use the internet to escape from
48
problems or emotions. The study also shows that having discussions with strangers in internet
areas called “chat room” is one of the most addictive activities.
1. It’s estimated about 200 million people get access to the Internet every year.
2. Most people like to go on the Internet for information or entertainment.
3. Using the Internet so often can do more harm than good.
4. Someone who is addicted to the Internet just spends a little time going on it.
5. Some people use the Internet to get away from their unpleasant situation.

6 Every day on radio, on TV and in the newspaper, we hear, see or read about many problems in
the world, for example, pollution problems.
Air pollution is the first kind. It mostly comes from fumes released from motorbikes, cars,
airplanes, trains and poisonous gases emitted from factories. Also, waste is dumped anywhere,
even in the city where many people are living. The second pollution problem is sea pollution.
Many people earn their living from fishing in the sea, and the fish they catch feed many people.
But the sea has become so polluted from oil spills and factory wastes that the fish are dying. This
pollution is not only killing the fish, but it also affecting those people who ate fish.
Seldom do you find a place nowadays that is not polluted. This problem is growing more difficult
every day. We must find a good solution that makes the world a better place to live.
1. Environmental pollution is one of the world’s problems.
2. Vehicles and factories account for air pollution.
3. Waste is usually dumped in the city where many people are living.
4. The sea water is heavily contaminated by oil spills and industrial sewage.
5. A lot of fish are dying because of marine pollution.
6. Pollution has been reduced to the minimum nowadays.

7 Many people still believe that natural resources will never be used up. Actually, the world’s
energy resources are limited. No one knows exactly how much fuel is left. However, we also
should use them economically and try to find out alternative sources of power. According to
Professor Marvin Burnham of the New England Institute of Technology, we have to start
conserving coal, oil and gas before it is too late, and nuclear power is the only alternative.
However, many people do not approve of using nuclear because it’s very dangerous. What would
happen if there was a serious nuclear accident ? Radioactivity causes cancer and may badly affect
the future generations.
1. Natural resources will never run out.
2. We don’t know exactly how much fuel is left.
3. We shouldn’t waste natural resources.
4. According to Mr. Burnham, solar energy can be used as a substitute for natural resources.
5. Many people agree to use nuclear power as an alternative energy.
6. Radioactive waste is harmful for health.

8 Last week, our class had a discussion on how to protect the environment, and we came up with
some interesting, practical suggestions. Some students suggested using banana leaves to wrap

earthquake will cause little damage if it takes place in an empty dessert. It may also cause little
damage if it takes place in a city like San Francisco, where people can afford to be well protected.

poorly protected. Disasters occur when these two factors are bought together : people living in
unsafe conditions ; a natural risk such as a flood, hurricane or earthquake.
1. In an empty dessert, earthquakes hardly occur.
2. People in San Francisco can be protected from earthquakes.
3. People living in unsafe conditions may get disasters.

made of pure copper. The Statue of Liberty was put up on October 28th, 1886. It was a gift of
friendship from the people of France to the people in the United States. The Statue was built in
France. Then it was taken apart, shipped across the Atlantic Ocean in crate, and rebuilt in the
USA.
The statue weighs 225 tons and is 93 meters tall. There are 25 windows in the crown which
comprises the jewels beneath the seven rays of the diadem. The tablet which the Statue holds in
her left reads, in Roman numerals, “July 4th 1776”, the date of the United States Declaration of
Independence. Visitors can go inside the statue. An elevator runs to the top of the pedestal, and

14 Many people think the teachers give students too much homework. That say it is unnecessary
for children to work at home in their free time. Moreover, they argue that most teachers do not
properly have to repeat tasks which they have already done at school.
Recently in Greece many parents complained about the difficult homework which the teachers
give to their children. Most people agree that homework is unfair. A student who can do his
homework in a quiet and comfortable room is in a better position than a student who does his
homework in a small, noisy room with television on. Some parents help their children with their
homework. Other parents take no interest at their children’s homework.
It is important, however, that teachers talk to parents about homework. A teacher should suggest
suitable tasks for parents to do with their children. Parents are a better teacher their own children.
1. According to the writer, many parents would like their children to have less homework.
2. Many parents think that doing homework is unnecessary.
3. Countries in Europe, teachers can’t set homework at weekends.
4. A lot of homework hasn’t been planned properly, according to many parents.
5. Doing homework is not good for children’s health.

Many students listen to music while they are studying, and say that it helps them learn. Many
parents and teachers say that music is just distracting, and that students are better at studying in
silence. Who is right?In a study, some scientists asked three groups of students to listen to a piece
of music by Mozart or a relaxation tape for ten minutes or sit in silence for ten minutes. The
students then did a ‘spatial reasoning’ test (a test about remembering shapes and imagining
looking at objects from different directions), and the ones who had listened to Mozart did better
in the test.
Taking part in musical activities and learning to play an instrument can improve verbal memory
(the ability to remember words). The longer the training lasts, the better the improvement in
memory. So, there’s no excuse to give up the piano lessons!
