Read and circle the best options (A, B, C, or D).

There are many different activities to do in my free time, but I love reading books the most. My father used to take me to bookstores on the weekends when I was a little girl, so I could pick out my favorite comic books. He also purchased some bedtime storybooks, and he read them to me every night. That was a wonderful memory. I keep the hobby as a habit even now. I now enjoy reading books such as novels and science fiction. Novel stories take me to another world as if I were on a magical journey with Harry Potter, Robinson Crusoe or Tom Sawyer. I can also learn more about the world, and I could explain such things as why apples always fall to the ground or why there is often a rainbow after the rain. I sometimes read books in my room, but I prefer going to my school library. I can borrow many books without having to pay any money. I particularly enjoy the moment when everyone's attention is drawn to the books in their hands. The library is quiet and everyone appears to get lost in their exciting world. Reading is an exciting free time activity that I enjoy.

A không đúng vì cô ấy used to (đã từng) được bố dẫn đến hiệu sách khi còn nhỏ, không phải sở thích hiện tại.

C và D không được đề cập rõ ràng, chỉ là ví dụ về nội dung sách.

Chọn B.

-> What does the word “them” refer to?

Lời giải:

Đáp án đúng: C

Từ "them" là tân ngữ số nhiều đứng ngay sau động từ "read" (đọc).

Dựa vào câu trước đó: "He also purchased some bedtime storybooks," (Ông ấy cũng mua một vài cuốn sách truyện kể trước khi đi ngủ), rõ ràng them ở đây thay thế cho bedtime storybooks mà người bố đã mua và đọc.

Chọn C.

-> Which is NOT true about her school library?

Lời giải:

Đáp án đúng: D

A. TRUE: "I can borrow many books without having to pay any money."

B. TRUE: "I particularly enjoy the moment when everyone's attention is drawn to the books in their hands." (Cô ấy thích khoảnh khắc mọi người đang chăm chú đọc).

C. TRUE: "The library is quiet..."

D. FALSE: Đoạn văn nói "everyone appears to get lost in their exciting world," (mọi người có vẻ chìm đắm vào thế giới thú vị của họ), không phải "lạc đường" (gets lost in the physical sense). Đây là cách chơi chữ để diễn tả sự tập trung cao độ, không phải việc thư viện khiến người ta bị lạc lối.

Chọn D.
