Exercise 2. SENTENCE NOUGHTS AND CROSSES. Work in pairs. One of you is a nought (O) and the other is a cross (X). Take turns saying sentences about your partner. Use the present simple affirmative or negative. If your sentence is true, write a O or a X in the table.

(Câu O và X. Làm việc theo cặp. Một trong hai người là O và người kia X. Thay phiên nhau nói các câu về bạn của em. Sử dụng thì hiện tại đơn khẳng định hoặc phủ định. Nếu câu của bạn là đúng, viết O hoặc X vào bảng.)

You don’t play video games. – Yes, that’s true.

(Bạn không chơi trò chơi điện tử? - Ừm, đúng đó.)

E. Listen to the sentences and check (✓) Strong Form or Weak Form.

(Nghe các câu sau và đánh dấu (✓) vào dạng phát âm nhấn mạnh hoặc phát âm yếu.)

E. In pairs, complete the sentences in your own words. Use the simple future, simple present, or an imperative form. Then compare your sentences with another pair.

(Hoạt động theo cặp, hãy hoàn thành các câu bằng ý của riêng bạn. Sử dụng thì tương lai đơn, hiện tại đơn hoặc câu mệnh lệnh. Sau đó so sánh các câu của bạn với một cặp khác.)
