UNIT 8: TOURISM
GRAMMAR
RELATIVE PRONOUNS - ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ
1. ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ WHO
- Who là đại từ quan hệ chỉ người, có thể thay thế cho chủ ngữ hoặc tân ngữ trong câu.
- Khi “who” thay thế cho chủ ngữ trong mệnh đề quan hệ, theo sau nó là một động từ.
Ex: This is Mr.Smith. He is my English teacher. (ta thấy Mr.Smith và he là cùng chỉ một người nên
trong câu có thể dùng “who” để thay thế tránh lặp từ.)
This is Mr.Smith who is my English teacher.
(Đây là thầy Smith, giáo viên tiếng Anh của con.)
- Khi “who” thay thế cho tân ngữ trong mệnh đề quan hệ, theo sau nó là chủ ngữ của động từ.
Ex: Do you know the man, I met him yesterday? (“the man” và “him” ở đây là cùng một người nên
ta sẽ dùng “who” thay thế cho tân ngữ “him”.)
=> Do you know the man who I met yesterday?
(Bạn có biết người đàn ông hôm qua tôi gặp không?)
2. ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ WHOM
- Whom là đại từ quan hệ chỉ người thay thế cho tân ngữ, “whom” đóng vai trò là tân ngữ trong mệnh
đề quan hệ, theo sau nó là chủ ngữ.
Ex: The beautiful woman is a doctor. We saw her yesterday. (“Woman” và “her” cùng chỉ một người
nên ta dùng “whom” để thay thế tân ngữ “her”)
=>The beautiful woman whom we saw yesterday is a doctor.
(Người phụ nữ xinh đẹp chúng ta gặp hôm qua là bác sĩ.)
Lưu ý: Ta có thể sử dụng “who” thay thế cho “whom”
Ex: The beautiful woman who we saw yesterday is a doctor.
3. ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ WHOSE
Whose là đại từ quan hệ chỉ người, thay cho tính từ sở hữu, theo sau whose luôn là 1 danh từ.
Chúng ta có thể dùng “of which” thay thế cho “whose” mà không làm thay đổi ý nghĩa của câu.
Ex: The boy is Harry. You borrowed his pen yesterday.
=> The boy whose pen you borrowed yesterday is Harry.
(Chàng trai mà bạn mượn bút hôm qua là Harry.)
4. ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ WHICH
Which là đại từ quan hệ chỉ vật, “which” có thể thay thế cho danh từ chỉ vật chủ ngữ hoặc tân ngữ
trong mệnh đề quan hệ.
- Khi “which” là chủ ngữ trong mệnh đề quan hệ, theo sau nó là một động từ.
Ex: The cup is on the right side. It is mine.
=>The cup which is on the right side is mine. (Chiếc cốc phía bên phải là của tôi.)
Ở đây, mệnh đề “which is on the right side” bổ nghĩa cho danh từ “the cup” và đại từ quan hệ “which”
cũng chính là chủ ngữ của động từ “is”.
- Khi “which” sẽ đóng vai trò như một tân ngữ trong mệnh đề quan hệ, theo sau nó là chủ ngữ.
ĐỀ THI GIỮA HỌC KÌ II – TIẾNG ANH 9 – FORM 2025 BIÊN SOẠN MỚI NHẤT

Ex: The story is very interesting. She told it to me yesterday.

=>The story which she told me yesterday is very interesting.
(Câu chuyện hôm qua cô ấy kể cho tôi rất thú vị)
Mệnh đề “which she told me yesterday” bổ nghĩa cho danh từ “the story” và đại từ quan hệ “which” là
tân ngữ trong mệnh đề quan hệ.
5. ĐẠI TỪ QUAN HỆ THAT
That là đại từ quan hệ chỉ cả người lẫn vật, có thể sử dụng để thay thế cho cả Who, Whom và Which
trong mệnh đề quan hệ xác định. (mệnh đề không có dấu “ ,”)
Ex: This is the book which I like best.
=> This is the book that I like best.
(Đây là cuốn sách tôi thích nhất.)
Ex: He is the person whom I admire most.
=> He is the person that I admire most.
(Anh ấy là người mà tôi ngưỡng mộ nhất.)
Ex: Can you see the girl who is running with a big dog?
=> Can you see the girl that is running with a big dog?
(Bạn có thấy cô gái đang chạy cùng với một chú chó lớn không?)

*LƯU Ý:
A. Các trường hợp sau đây bắt buộc phải dùng “that”. B. Các trường hợp không dùng that:
- Khi cụm từ đứng trước đại từ quan hệ là danh từ chỉ - Không dùng That trong mệnh đề
cả người và vật. quan hệ không xác định (có dấu
Ex: Kate told me a lot about the places and people that she phảy)
had visited. - Không dùng That khi có giới từ ở
- Khi đại từ quan hệ theo sau danh từ có các tính từ so phía trước (in, on, at, of, …)
sánh hơn nhất - Không dùng That khi nó thay thế
Ex: This is the most interesting film that I’ve ever watched. cho cả mệnh đề đứng trước, mà
- Khi đại từ quan hệ theo sau danh từ đi cùng với only, dùng “Which” để thay thế.
the first, the last Ex: It rained all day, which was a pity.
Ex: It was the first time that I heard about it. - Không dùng That với các từ chỉ
- Khi đi sau các đại từ bất định, đại từ phủ định, đại từ lượng có giới từ đi kèm (neither of,
chỉ số lượng: no one, nobody, nothing, anyone, anything, most of, all of, none of, many of, a lot
anybody, someone, something, somebody, all, some, any, of,…)
little, none.
Ex: He never says anything that makes me laugh.

UNIT 9: WORLD ENGLISHES

GRAMMAR
1. DEFINING RELATIVE CLAUSES (MỆNH ĐỀ QUAN HỆ XÁC ĐỊNH)
- Mệnh đề quan hệ xác định là mệnh đề đứng sau danh từ chưa xác định, nó được dùng để xác định
cho danh từ đó. Mệnh đề quan hệ xác định là mệnh đề cần thiết cho ý nghĩa của câu, không có nó câu
sẽ không đủ nghĩa.
Ex: The bike which you gave me on my birthday was very expensive.
(Cái xe đạp mà cậu tặng tớ vào dịp sinh nhật ấy rất đắt tiền.)
Nếu không có mệnh đề “which you gave me on my birthday” chúng ta sẽ không biết đó là chiếc
xe đạp nào.
Ex: I do not know the town where John was born.
ĐỀ THI GIỮA HỌC KÌ II – TIẾNG ANH 9 – FORM 2025 BIÊN SOẠN MỚI NHẤT

(Tôi không biết cái thị trấn nơi mà John được sinh ra.). Tương tự mệnh đề “where John was
born” làm rõ nghĩa cho danh từ “the town”.
- Trong mệnh đề quan hệ xác định, chúng ta có thể bỏ các đại từ quan hệ làm tân ngữ who(m), which,
that và các trạng từ when, why; đặc biệt là trong văn nói thân mật.
Ex: Do you remember the day we first met each other?
(Cậu có nhớ cái ngày mà lần đầu tiên chúng ta gặp nhau không?)
Ex: The girl you met yesterday is my close friend.
(Cô gái cậu gặp hôm qua là bạn thân của tớ đấy.)
- Trong văn viết, chúng ta không sử dụng dấu phảy trong mệnh đề quan hệ xác định.

The Great Barrier Reef is the world’s largest coral reef system composed of over 2,900 individual
reefs and 900 islands stretching for over 2,300 kilometers over an area of approximately 344,400
square kilometers, as big as a city. Located in the Coral Sea, off the coast of Queensland, Australia,
the Great Barrier Reef can even be seen from outer space!

These coral reefs are made up of tiny living organisms called coral polyps. Coral polyps take calcium
carbonate from the ocean water to build their hard skeletons, which form the base of the reef.
Millions of polyps working together over millions of years have created this vast underwater
structure.

The Great Barrier Reef is a haven for a mind-boggling variety of marine life. Over 1,500 species of
fish, 411 types of hard coral, 134 species of sharks and rays, and six of the world’s seven species of
marine turtles call the reef home. This incredible biodiversity makes the Great Barrier Reef a
UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Sadly, the Great Barrier Reef faces threats from pollution, climate change, and overfishing. Rising
water temperatures cause coral bleaching, which is when coral loses its vibrant colors and dies.
Protecting this natural wonder is crucial for the health of our oceans and the amazing creatures that
live there.

The Amazon rainforest is a vast and vibrant ecosystem teeming with life. It covers an area larger

Staying in eco-lodges built with local materials minimizes disruption to the ecosystem. These
lodges often employ local people, providing them with income and fostering a sense of ownership over
