BÀI TẬP NGÀY 15/9/2021: ERROR CORRECTION​

Read the text and find 5 mistakes and correct them.

For many century, the question of how our minds work was left to theologians and philosophers. But at the beginning of the twentieth century, a new science, experimental psychology emerged, which the speculative theories of the past were confirmed or disproved by the scientific method. In the forefront of this research was J B Watson. His area of interest was the origin of human emotions. Do we learn them, or do we have them when we are born? In particular, Watson wanted to study fear, and was prepared to go to whatever lengths to study his theory.
Watson’s subject was a 9 month old infant, Albert. During the experiment, Watson presented the child with things which often considered frightening – a rat, fire, a clown mask. At first, Albert was unafraid of these things. But then Watson tormented the child with loud, expected noises as he was playing with them. Sure enough, Albert learnt to associate these things with the unpleasant experience. Even if the noises were stopped, Albert withdrew his body and puckered his face when presented once more with the rat and mask.

Spoiler: GIẢI THÍCH CỦA SÁCH

1. When the verbs believe, consider, expect, know, say, suppose and their synonyms, like the verb repute in this particular case, are used in the passive form, they are then followed by to + infinitive

2. The change of word class (from verb to noun phrase) is a common technique to paraphrase a sentence / take sb by surprise = (idiomatic expression) surprise sb.

3. When something is of the utmost importance, it is extremely important.
“of the utmost importance” is normally followed by a that-clause and the subjunctive.

4. We use inversion in the beginning of the sentence with particular adverbial expressions such as : under no circumstances, on no account / occasion, in no way etc. Inversion is used for emphasis.

5. We use inversion with particular words and expressions such as only after, only when, not until etc.

6. be in the mood for (doing) sth (idiom) = want to do / experience sth

BÀI TẬP NGÀY 29/9/2021: ERROR CORRECTION ​

There are 5 errors in the passage. Find and correct them. The first one has done as an example.
The ability to deceive (0) other => OTHERS is thought by some psychologists to be a character that has been genetically selected through human evolution. Comparisons have been made with animal deception, such as camouflage and mimicry. For hundreds of generations, it is arguing, the ability to make others believe insincere remarks and promises has conferred advantages in struggles to control resources and win mating partners. The less cunning have, quite simply, produced fewer offspring, and a talent for creating false impressions has dominated the human gene pool.

What the merits or shortcomings of this line of thinking, they are undoubtedly many occasions in everyday social encounters when people, for the reason or another, want to avoid expressing their true feelings. The ability to do these varies and success tends to breed success. Those which lie effectively will tend to lie more often, perfecting their social skills in the process.Those who fail are deterred from future attempts and get less practice. With lying, as with everything else, practice makes perfect.
