SAY: là động từ có tân ngữ, có nghĩa là “nói ra, nói rằng”, chú trọng nội dung được nói ra.
Thí dụ:
Please say it again in English. (Làm ơn nói lại bằng tiếng Anh).
They say that he is very ill. (Họ nói rằng cậu ấy ốm nặng).
SPEAK: có nghĩa là “nói ra lời, phát biểu”, chú trọng mở miệng, nói ra lời. Thường dùng làm động từ không có tân ngữ. Khi có tân ngữ thì chỉ là một số ít từ chỉ thứ tiếng “truth” (sự thật).
Thí dụ:
He is going to speak at the meeting. (Anh ấy sẽ phát biểu trong cuộc mít tinh).
I speak Chinese. I don’t speak Japanese. (Tôi nói tiếng Trung Quốc. Tôi không nói tiếng Nhật Bản).
Khi muốn “nói với ai” thì dùng speak to sb hay speak with sb.
Thí dụ:
She is speaking to our teacher. (Cô ấy đang nói chuyện với thày giáo của chúng ta).
TELL: có nghĩa “cho biết, chú trọng, sự trình bày”. Thường gặp trong các kết cấu: tell sb sth (nói với ai điều gì đó), tell sb to do sth (bảo ai làm gì), tell sb about sth (cho ai biết về điều gì).
Thí dụ:
The teacher is telling the class an interesting story. (Thầy giáo đang kể cho lớp nghe một câu chuyện thú vị).
Please tell him to come to the blackboard. (Làm ơn bảo cậu ấy lên bảng đen).
We tell him about the bad news. (Chúng tôi nói cho anh ta nghe về tin xấu đó).
TALK: có nghĩa là “trao đổi, chuyện trò”, có nghĩa gần như speak, chú trọng động tác “nói’. Thường gặp trong các kết cấu: talk to sb (nói chuyện với ai), talk about sth (nói về điều gì), talk with sb (chuyện trò với ai).
Thí dụ:
What are they talking about? (Họ đang nói về chuyện gì thế?).

Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the following questions.
Colors are one of the most exciting experiences in life. I love them, and they are just as important to me as emotions are. Have you ever wondered how the two are so intimately related?
Color directly affects your emotions. Color both reflects the current state of your emotions, and is something that you can use to improve or change your emotions. The color that you choose to wear either refects your current state of being, or reflects the color or emotion that you need.
The colors that you wear affect you much more than they affect the people around you. Of course they also affect anyone who comes in contract with you, but you are the one saturated with the color all day! I even choose items around me based on their color. In the morning, I choose my clothes based on the color or emotion that I need for the day. So you can consciously use color to control the emotions that you are exposed to, which can help you to feel better.
Color, sound, and emotions are all vibrations. Emotions are literally energy in motion; they are meant to move and flow. This is the reason that real feelings are the fastest way to get your energy in motion. Also, flowing energy is exactly what creates healthy cells in your body. So, the fastest way to be healthy is to be open to your real feelings. Alternately, the fastest way to create disease is to inhibit your emotions.

There is a common expression in the English language referring to a blue moon. When people say that something happens “only once in a blue moon,” they mean that it happens only very rarely, once in a great while. This expression has been around for at least a century and a half; there are references to this expression that date from the second half of the nineteenth century. (5) The expression “a blue moon” has come to refer to the second full moon occurring in any given calendar month. A second full moon is not called a blue moon because it is particularly blue or is any different in hue from the first full moon of the month. Instead, it is called a blue moon because it is so rare. The moon needs a little more than 29 days to complete the cycle from full moon to full moon. Because every month except February has more than 29 days, every month will have at least one full moon (except February, which will have a full moon unless there is a full moon at the very end of January and another full moon at the very beginning of March). It is on the occasion when a given calendar month has a second full moon that a blue moon occurs. This does not happen very often, only three or four times in a decade. The blue moons of today are called blue moons because of their rarity and not because of their color; however, the expression “blue moon” may have come into existence in reference to unusual circumstances in which the moon actually appeared blue. Certain natural phenomena of gigantic proportions can actually change the appearance of the moon from Earth. The eruption of the Krakatao volcano in 1883 left dust particles in the atmosphere, which clouded the sun and gave the moon a bluish tint. This particular occurrence of the blue moon may have given rise to the expression that we use today. Another example occurred more than a century later. When Mount Pinatubo erupted in the Philippines in 1991, the moon again took on a blue tint.
How many blue moons would there most likely be in a century?
