Yêu cầu:
Phân biệt 2 lọai câu ước muốn
Viết đúng động từ của từng lọai câu ước muốn
Biến đổi câu với những cấu trúc tương đương
_______________________________________
Có 2 lọai câu ước muốn trong chương trình Trung học cơ sở:
Lọai 1:	ước muốn một sự việc có khả năng xảy ra trong tương lai
S1 + wish(es) + S2 + would/could + V bare + (future time – tomorrow, next )
	wouldn’t/couldn’t + V bare (câu phủ định)
Lọai 2:	một sự việc không được như ý ở hiện tại, ước muốn giá như việc đó xẩy ra khác đi, tốt hơn
S1 + wish(es) + S2 + were/V2/ed + (present time – now, at the moment, at present, today)
	Weren’t/didn’t + V bare	(câu phủ định)
Quan sát:

→ I wish she would come to my birthday party tomorrow. (come)

Nhận xét:
Tất cả các câu wish đều có hai chủ ngữ, hai chủ ngữ này có thể giống nhau hay khác nhau
Sau động từ wish phải có chủ ngữ thứ hai
Câu wish lọai 1 dùng would + V bare (tương lai trong quá khứ)
Câu wish lọai 2 dùng thì quá khứ đơn (V2)
Trạng từ chỉ thời gian trong câu loại 1 là tomorrow, next,  (tương lai)
Trạng từ chỉ thời gian trong câu loại 2 là now, today, at present, at the moment  (hiện tại)

Những lỗi sai thường gặp khi biến đổi câu wish lọai 2:
Chưa bỏ những cụm từ chỉ sự không hài lòng: sorry, pity, awful  chưa bỏ những động từ
đồng nghĩa với động từ wish: want, ‘d like (would like) 
Chưa phân biệt được loại 1 và loại 2.
Chưa thêm chủ ngữ mới sau động từ wish (wish + S2)
Viết động từ ở thì quá khứ đơn chưa đúng (haved, cuold, wuold, worryed ) 
Chưa bỏ not hoặc phải thêm not trong câu cho sẵn trước khi viết câu thứ hai vì câu thứ hai 
sẽ trái nghĩa với câu thứ nhất cho sẵn. (loại 2)
Can được đổi sang were able to trong câu wish loại 2
Các mẫu câu wish có ý nghĩa khác
We wish you a happy New Year. 	(lời chúc)
I wish you good luck.	Best wishes. (lời chúc tốt lành)
She wishes to go shopping. / She wishes you to go shopping. (wish = want to)

ACTIVE AND PASSIVE VOICE
(Câu chủ động và câu bị động)
Yêu cầu:
Nhận biết cấu trúc các lọai câu bị động.
Viết đúng thì, đúng dạng của động từ trong câu bị động.
Biến đổi câu từ câu chủ động sang câu bị động và ngược lại.
Định nghĩa:
Active voice - câu chủ động: 
Chủ ngữ thực hiện hành động, làm chủ hành động
Đa số chủ ngữ trong câu chủ động chỉ về người
Passive voice - câu bị động: 
Chủ ngữ không thực hiện hành động, mà nhận hành động do tác nhân khác (agent) thực hiện.
Đa số chủ ngữ trong câu bị động chỉ về sự vật, sự việc
Quan sát:
Active voice:	Mr. Brown waters the roses every morning. (Ông Brown tưới nước những bông hoa hồng)
	 S + Vs + O + Adv of time.
Passive voice:	The roses are watered by Mr. Brown every morning. (Những bông hoa hồng được tưới bởi )
	S +be + V3 	+ by agent + Adv of time
Nhận xét:
Tân ngữ: Object - the roses- trong câu chủ động được chuyển thành chủ ngữ trong câu bị động
Chủ ngữ: Subject – Mr. Brown – trong câu chủ động được chuyển thành tân ngữ trong câu bị động
Động từ waters được đổi thành are watered (be + V3)
Khi chuyển sang câu bị động, động từ không thay đổi về thì.(waters- hiện tại đơn → are- hiện tại đơn)
Khi muốn đề cập đến ông Brown làm chủa ngữ, ta dùng câu chủ động.
Khi muốn đề cập đến những bông hoa hồng làm chủ ngữ, ta dùng câu bị động.
Trợ động từ (be) và V3 (past participle – quá phân từ) trong câu bị động:
V3 không thay đổi trong bất kỳ thì nào của động từ.
(be) thay đổi tùy theo thì của động từ và tùy theo chủ ngữ số nhiều hay số ít:
Simple present - Hiện tại đơn	→	 am / is / are + V3 (chủ ngữ số ít, nhiều)
Simple past - 	Quá khứ đơn	→	 was / were + V3 (chủ ngữ số ít, nhiều)
Simple future - Tương lai đơn và các modals khác	→	will / modals + be + V3
Present perfect - Hiện tại hòan thành	→	 has / have + been + V3 (chủ ngữ số ít, nhiều)
be còn dùng với be going to –have to, ought to, used to  	(This test has to be done soon.)
being dùng với thì tiếp diễn	(A new school is being built now.

PRESENT PERFECT AND PAST SIMPLE TENSES
(Sự liên hệ giữa thì hiện tại hoàn thành và thì quá khứ đơn)
Yêu cầu:
Phân biệt thì quá khứ đơn và thì hiện tại hòan thành
Nhận biết cấu trúc câu của thì HTHT và thì quá khứ đơn.
Nhận biết những cụm từ chỉ thời gian của thì HTHT và của thì quá khứ đơn
Viết đúng cấu trúc của thì HTHT và của thì quá khứ đơn
Biến đổi từ thì quá khứ đơn sang thì hiện tại hòan thành và ngược lại
_____________________________________________
Sự khác biệt giữa hai thì HTHT và QKĐ:
A. Simple past: 
Thì quá khứ đơn diễn tả những hành động đã xảy ra và đã chấm dứt tại một thời điểm cụ thể trong quá khứ.
Cấu trúc câu: 	S + V2 + adv of time	(+)
S + didn’t + Vo + adv of time	(-)
(W-h) + did + S + Vo + adv of time?	(?)
Adverbs of time: 	yesterday, last week, two years ago, in 2001, When 
Thường được dùng với những động từ chỉ sự bắt đầu: begin, start 
B. Present perfect:
Thì HTHT diễn tả những hành động dù đã bắt đầu trong quá khứ nhưng vẫn còn tiếp tục đến hiện tại và còn có thể tiếp tục trong tương lai; diễn tả sự kiện quan trọng (lần đầu tiên, lần thứ hai )
Cấu trúc câu:	S + has / have + (adv of manner) + V3 + adv of time	(+)
S + hasn’t/ haven’t + (adv of manner) + V3 + adv of time	(-)
(W-h) + has/have + S + V3+ adv of time	(?)

Thì hiện tại hòan thành nói về khỏang thời gian mà hành động đó diễn ra cho đến nay.
Không sử dụng những động từ chỉ sự bắt đầu: begin, start trong thì HTHT.
Hai thì có những cụm từ chỉ thời gian khác nhau, không dùng lẫn lộn. (in →since/ ago →for)
