SKILLS 1
When I was at school, I had to learn how to have a well-balanced life in order to reduce stress and anxiety. Below are some of the typical things I did.
Firstly, I managed my time properly. I started to plan my schedule, made a weekly work list and gave priority to some of my work. This helped me concentrate my efforts on my most important tasks.
In addition, I communicated with my family, friends, and teachers about my busy schedule and problems, so they would offer me additional support.
I also took breaks appropriately because they helped me keep away from stress and anxiety and gave my brain a rest and improved my mood.
Finally, I looked after my physical health. I got at least eight hours of sleep a day. I played football with my classmates twice a week and went for a walk with my grandparents early every morning. Besides, I also tried to follow a healthy diet. I ate a lot of fruit and vegetables. I ate little fattening foods and avoided junk foods like chips, cookies, pizza, etc.

Hello, I’m Demi, a student from the Netherlands. I used to live with my parents in London for three years before we moved back to Giethoorn Village in the Netherlands. Our life in London was quite interesting. There are many attractions such as the London Eye, Buckingham Palace, etc., so at weekends we could visit them. We also went to famous parks like Hyde Park to enjoy the nature. However, in this city, we experienced traffic jams and air pollution. Then we moved back to our Giethoorn Village. At first, I was a little bit sad but now I really love the life here. We live in one of the most beautiful villages in the world. Our village is special because we can only sail around, walk, or cycle. The place I like best is the museum because there I can learn how people lived more than 100 years ago. I also love the fresh air and the people here.

II. wish + past simple (wish + quá khứ đơn)
Chúng ta sử dụng wish + động từ dạng quá khứ đơn khi chúng ta muốn một điều gì đó ở hiện tại hoặc tương lai trở nên khác đi.
Chủ ngữ 1 + wish + chủ ngữ 2 + quá khứ đơn
Ví dụ:
I wish I had enough money to travel around the world.
(Ước gì tôi có đủ tiền để đi du lịch vòng quanh thế giới.)
I wish (that) my mother didn't have to work so hard.
(Tôi ước (rằng) mẹ tôi không phải làm việc quá vất vả.)
CẤU TRÚC THÌ QUÁ KHỨ ĐƠN:
1. Cấu trúc thì quá khứ đơn với động từ “be” (was/were)
DẤU HIỆU NHẬN BIẾT THÌ QUÁ KHỨ ĐƠN:
Chúng ta có thể nhận biết thì quá khứ đơn qua một số trang từ chỉ thời gian dưới đây:
- yesterday, ago, last, in the past, the day before
- Các mốc thời gian trong quá khứ: in 1999, in 2007, in 2018, …
- When + mệnh đề được chia ở quá khứ đơn
CÁCH THÊM -ed SAU ĐỘNG TỪ:
- Thông thường ta thêm “ed” vào sau động từ.
Ví dụ: watch – watched, turn – turned, want – wanted, …
- Động từ tận cùng là “e” -> ta chỉ cần thêm “d”.
Ví dụ: type – typed, smile – smiled, agree – agreed, …
- Động từ có MỘT âm tiết, tận cùng là MỘT phụ âm, trước phụ âm là MỘT nguyên âm -> ta nhân đôi phụ âm cuối rồi thêm “-ed”.
Ví dụ: stop – stopped, shop – shopped, tap – tapped, …
- NGOẠI LỆ: commit – committed, travel – travelled, prefer – preferred, …
- Động từ tận cùng là “y”:
+ Nếu trước “y” là MỘT nguyên âm (a,e,i,o,u) ta chỉ thêm “ed”.
Ví dụ: play – played, stay – stayed, …
+ Nếu trước “y” là phụ âm ta đổi “y” thành “i + ed”.
Ví dụ: study – studied, cry – cried, …
- Một số động từ bất qui tắc không thêm “ed”, mà sử dụng cột 2.
2. Cấu trúc thì quá khứ đơn với động từ thường
Động từ thường tiếng Anh ở quá khứ dưới viết dưới dạng V-ed. Tuy nhiên, có vài trăm động từ bất quy tắc với các dạng khác nhau.
