40 Phrasal Verbs with UP

29/03/2024 03:07:20

Trong việc diễn đạt bằng ngôn ngữ nói chung, và tiếng Anh nói riêng, thành ngữ (idioms) hoặc ngữ động từ (phrasal verbs) thường được dùng trong các tình huống thân thiện, ít học thuật. Chính vì lí do đó, các bạn thí sinh IELTS cần lưu ý không sử dụng chúng trong văn viết học thuật, trang trọng (Academic Writing). Tuy nhiên, ngôn ngữ nói có phần ít học thuật hơn. Vì vậy, việc dùng một vài thành ngữ hoặc ngữ động từ trong bài thi nói một cách đúng nghĩa, đúng ngữ cảnh sẽ giúp các bạn nói tiếng Anh giống người bản xứ hơn và tất nhiên sẽ được đánh giá cao hơn. Dưới đây, IELTS THẦY MẠNH (GM EDU) sẽ giới thiệu với các bạn 40 ngữ động từ với UP (phrasal verbs with UP) được dùng phổ biến, giúp các bạn ghi điểm cao cho bài thi nói.
