2 câu đầu quá dễ chắc ko cần phải post đáp án nhỉ!

3. That jumper you knitted for my daughter no longer fits her ( grown).
.................................................. .........................
trong phần này chúng ta chú ý chút tới nghĩa của grown nhe!
Liên tưởng ngay đến nhưng~ cụm từ của grown ( mang nghĩa tăng lên ,lớn lên!
=> ở đây mình đề nghị các bạn dùng: grown out of something: trờ nên quá cỡ với cái j
Viết lại như sau: My daughter has grown out of that jumber you knitted for her

4. They accused me of causing the accident. ( blame)
.................................................. ..........................
câu này có lẽ nhiều bạn sẽ viết theo kiểu thông thường là:
They blame me for.............
nhưng để hay hơn m` support 1 mẫu hay hơn là : put the blame on S.O
Vì thế câu này viết lại như sau:
They put the blame on me for the accident.

5. What sort of progress are you making in your new job? ( getting).
.................................................. ..........................
Có bao h mọi người gặp : How are you getting on? ( dạo này a làm ăn thế nào?) => ta dùng get on thay thế cho make
Viết lại: How are you getting on in your new job( tùy theo kiểu viết, có nhiều câu khác nhau)
6.It was a simple strick, but the teacher was taken in by it ( for)
.................................................. .........................(DỊCH: chỉ là một trò lừa bịp thường tục vậy mà ông giáo viên lại bị lừa!) Ta học được take in: bị lừa bịp và trick: trò lừa bịp( cái này các bạn sẽ gặp rất thường trong các giáo trình CPE hoặc CAE,vv.. họ thường nhấn mạnh chúng ta ở phần glossary!

Dùng for: ai mà nghe bài hát này rồi chắc làm dc ngay nhỉ?? Fall For You
Trình bày: Secondhand Serenade
Viết lại như sau:It 's was simple trick, but the teacher fell for it

7.I don't think this record will ever be popular. ( on)
.................................................. .......................
Cái này đúng ko biết, nhờ từ điển thôi!
Catch on: được ưa chuộng!
Vậy viết là: I don't think this record will ever catch on

8.I am convinced that there is some mistake with this bill- it 's astronomical.
there............................................. ......................
Chú ý là astronomical: to lớn (adj)
=> There must be some mistake with this bill

.Contrary......................................... ......................
câu này dễ. contrary to what we had expected....

10.He was not given details of the company's new plans (dark)
