9a. I had to throw the milk away because it was sour. (OFF)
MA: I had to throw the milk away because it went off.
Here is my answer to this question:
MA: I had to throw off the milk because it was sour.
I think "it went off" isn''t appropriate to use in this situation. The light went off. The milk went off doesn''t describe it being sour.
"Reach for the sky because if you should happen to miss, you'll still be among the stars".

Bạn adamsmith à, cám ơn ý kiến của bạn nhưng ở đây là go off đấy. Go off = become stale, sour... Câu này Brit đã làm nhiều lần rồi nên biết thôi, còn throw off cũng có nghĩa là bỏ đi, vứt đi, không hiểu nếu ngày trước Brit làm thế này có được chấp nhận ko? Chỉ có điều tiếng Anh trong nhà trường vốn vô cùng cứng ngắt và tẻ nhạt nên ... chỉ còn cách thuộc đáp án mà làm thôi. Thế đấy, nếu bạn học chuyên thì bạn sẽ biết, sai 1 chữ cũng mất điểm luôn
Mấy câu này hầu hết là trong Proficiency Master class, nhưng mà em lại chẳng có quyển đáp án, nên cứ làm mà chẳng biết thế nào. Khốn nỗi cô Hạnh rất khoái cho trong quyển này chứ, càng đọc càng thấy nhiều bài trùng
Xem thêm mấy quyển sách nữa thì có câu trùng với bài trên em post. Anh Long làm đúng gần hết rồi còn gì, trí nhớ tốt thật ... chỉ tội vẫn chưa chính xác 100% với đáp án có nghĩa là... vẫn chưa được điểm
7. I resent the way that she clearly feels herself to be superior to me. (NOSE)
I resent the way she looks down her nose on me.
Hì look down on sb nhưng mà lại là look down one''s nose AT sb, rắc rối nhỉ, ngoài đời chắc cũng chẳng ai để ý mấy cái giới từ của khỉ này, mà chắc cũng interchangeable.
9. I think we out to permit him to do whatever he chooses. (HAND)
Câu này đáp án là: I think we ought to give him a free hand to do whatever he chooses.
Mọi người xem hộ em tiếp cái bài sau nhé, vẫn là rewrite thôi, em phải làm nhiều loại bài này mà. Bài này thì có vẻ dễ hơn đôi chút (ít ra em nghi~ được nhiều hơn )
1. The police arrived as the thieves were committing the crime. (RED-HANDED)
MA: The thieves were caught red-handed on/ when committing the crime.
Khong biet phai de la when hay on nhi?
2. They arrived at their destination alive and kicking. (SOUND)
MA: They arrived at their destination safe and sound.
3. Travellers consider themselves superior to those who lead a more sedentary life. (DOWN)

4. Why does life have to be so difficult! (ONLY)

9. We are unanimous regarding the formation of a new alliance. (SHARES)
10. The disagreement is a lot of fuss about nothing (TEACUP)
Hì câu cuối thực ra em làm rồi, và em cũng nhớ đáp án, post lên đây thử xem mọi người đã bao giờ nghe thấy cái idiom quái gở này chưa... Hic, nghe nó thật là chuối hết sức
So close no matter how far... I have you in my heart and nothing else matters...
