PHẦN I. PHONETICS – STRESS – TRỌNG ÂM 
Buổi 2 - Bài 2. RULES TO MARK STRESS – QUI TẮC ĐÁNH TRỌNG ÂM

I. Definitions:

1. Phoneme: The smallest part of sound (vowel and consonant sounds) Âm tố - là thành phần nhỏ
nhất của âm thanh (gồm nguyên âm và phụ âm)

2. Syllable: The sound made when one or clusters of phoneme are articulated. Âm tiết – là tiếng phát
ra khi một hoặc nhiều âm tố được phát âm.

3. Stress: The degree of the loudness or prominence with which a sound ort a word is pronounced.
Độ lớn hay thống trị về âm của một âm tiết khi một chùm âm của một từ (có từ hai âm tiết trở lên)
được đọc, nói hay phát âm.

II. Rules to mark stress:
1. Di-syllable words:

a. Usually on the second syllable if it is a verb whose second syllable doesn’t contain the vowel

sounds of /ә/, /I/, and /әu/, on the first syllable of the other words. (trọng âm thường rơi vào âm tiết

thứ 2 đối với động từ - trừ các âm tiết thứ 2 chứa nguyên âm /ә/, /I/, hoặc /әu/, rơi vào âm tiết thứ

nhất đối với các từ loại còn lại). As: mother, ready, color, palace, student, teacher, tonight, afraid,

people, money, enjoy, paper, begin, provide, summer, abroad, noisy, success, enter,…

để người đọc dựa vào đó mà đọc cho dễ. Phiên âm quốc tế được hiệp hội Phiên âm Quốc Tế đặt ra gọi tắt là

I. P. A. đã được Bộ Giáo Dục Việt Nam dùng một cách chính thức trong các sách giáo khoa.

B. BỘ KÝ HIỆU PHIÊN ÂM QUỐC TẾ.

KẾT THÚC BUỔI 6
---Buổi 7 - Bài 3. PHẦN II. TENSES – ÔN TẬP VỀ NGỮ PHÁP

I. The simple present tense:

1. The form

(+) S + V (-) S + don’t/ doesn’t + V (?) Do/ Does + S + V?

2. The usage: - To denote actions that happened repeatedly. (She never comes late)

- To denote long lasting events.(We live in Concord street)

- To denote a true fact. (The earth moves around the Sun)

3. The recognition: - now/ nowadays/ today/ this summer/… - always/ usually/ often/ sometimes/

occasionally/… - the proof of constant truth.

4. Notes: - To denote a plan/ prediction/ timetables/… (The train leaves at 9.00)

- The division of “be”, “have”, “can, may, must”,…

II. The present progressive tense:

1. The form:

(+) S + am/ are/ is + V-ING (-) S + am/ are/ is + not + V-ING (?) Am/ Are/ Is + S + V-ING?

2. The usage: - To denote happening actions at the time of speaking. (She is teaching Maths)

- To denote the intention/ prediction/ plan/…(She is coming soon)
3. The recognition: - now/ right now/ at present/ at this time/ at this moment/…

- follow a command, request,…

4. Notes: - The ING-forms ( getting, running, having, writing, dying, lying,…)

- The omission of the verbs of awareness or sensation as: be/ see/ hear/ understand/ know/ like/
want/ glance/ feel/ think/ smell/ love/ hate/ realize/ seem/ remember/ forget/…( use the simple
present instead )

III. The present perfect tense:

1. The form:

(+) S + have/ has + P.P (P2) (-) S + haven’t/ hasn’t + P.P (P2) (?) Have/ Has + S + P.P (P2)

2. The usage: - To denote actions that happened in the past but having results, relating, or still

happening at present. (We have lived here since 1990)

- To denote actions that happened right before the time of speaking, using “just”.

(She has just come from New York)

- To denote unfulfilled actions with “yet”. (He hasn’t come yet)

- To denote past actions; no certain time expression, using “already”. (We have already seen that film)

3. The recognition: - just = recently = lately. - ever/ never (comments)

- already/ yet/ since/ for/ so far/ until now/ up to now (present).

Notes: - Past participles: (regular verbs adding “ed”./ irregular verbs “learn by heart”)

- The differencesbetween the present perfect and the simple past tense.

- The present perfect progressive is used to denote past actions “happening”, or “will happen. The

tense is often related to the verbs: live/ learn/ wait/ work/ study/…

→“S + have/ has + been + V-ING”

IV. The simple past tense:

1. The form: (pV = the past form of verbs)
