For any topic, the first thing learners should do is formulate a paraphrased reflection for the keywords in the question.
Tuy nhiên, nếu không có suy nghĩ để tái cấu trúc, bạn có thể trả lời như sau:
Ví dụ:
- Have you ever got lost?
Thay vì lặp lại là:
Yes, I have got lost before.
Thì có thể trả lời ngay là:
- It has happened before (từ ‘it’ sẽ thay cho việc ‘got lost’)
- Oh definitely (không phải nhắc lại câu hỏi)
- It would be a lie if I said no (giống như ‘definitely’)
Sau đó, bạn hãy trả lời câu hỏi như thường, như gợi ý dưới đây. Hãy chú ý xem đâu là các từ đã được tái cấu trúc từ từ khóa trong câu hỏi.
Mẫu câu trả lời (Sample Response)
1. Have you ever experienced being lost?
It's quite embarrassing to admit, but it has occurred on numerous occasions. The main reason is my poor sense of direction, coupled with a forgetful memory, which complicates matters when trying to navigate around the city.
- embarrasing: xấu hổ
- plus: cộng (với)
2. How do you manage to find your way when lost?
An effective solution is to utilize navigation applications on my smartphone such as Google Maps. However, I strongly discourage using it while driving a motorbike, a common practice in Vietnam, as it could result in serious consequences. Alternatively, stopping and asking locals for directions is another viable approach.
- scooter (n): xe tay ga
- dire consequences: hậu quả thảm khốc
3. Are you able to read a map when you find yourself lost?
Absolutely. I believe having the ability to navigate using a map is a crucial survival skill, which I acquired from playing video games as a child.
4. Have you ever assisted someone who was lost?
Indeed, I have. However, I only do so when I'm completely confident in the directions I provide. Otherwise, I prefer to be honest and suggest they seek assistance from someone else.
