A: Which activities and sports have you tried and enjoyed before?
(Bạn đã từng thử và yêu thích những hoạt động và môn thể thao nào trước đây?)
B: I have tried playing a musical instrument for 3 years. It’s kalimba. Up to now, I have really enjoyed it because its sound makes me relax.
(Tôi đã thử chơi một loại nhạc cụ trong 3 năm. Đó là đàn kalimba. Cho đến bây giờ, tôi thực sự thích nó vì âm thanh của nó khiến tôi thư giãn.)
A: Cool! Is there anything that you have tried but didn’t enjoy?
(Tuyệt! Có hoạt động nào bạn đã thử nhưng không thích không?)
B: Well, I used to play basketball when I was 15, but I didn’t like it because I felt tired when I had to run a lot. Can you tell me what activities and sports you would like to try?
(À, tôi đã từng chơi bóng rổ khi tôi 15 tuổi, nhưng tôi không thích nó vì tôi cảm thấy mệt mỏi khi phải chạy nhiều. Bạn có thể cho tôi biết bạn muốn thử những hoạt động và môn thể thao nào không?)
A: I want to try doing martial arts because I want to improve my health and protect myself.
(Tôi muốn thử tập võ thuật vì tôi muốn tăng cường sức khỏe và bảo vệ bản thân.)
B: I agree. And what would you prefer not to try?
(Tôi đồng ý. Và bạn không muốn thử điều gì?)
A: I don’t like trying doing drama because I’m not good at acting and I am scared of being in front of people.
(Tôi không thích thử đóng phim truyền hình vì tôi không giỏi diễn xuất và tôi cảm thấy sợ khi đứng trước mọi người.)
Lời giải:
They consider kayaking, surfing, parkour, karting and hiking.
(Họ xem xét chèo thuyền kayak, lướt sóng, trò chơi parkour, đua xe kart và đi bộ đường dài.)
They agree on karting.
(Họ đồng ý đua xe kart.)
Bài nghe:
A: So, we’re going to do an adventure activity on our day out. What do you think we should do?
B: Well, I’m quite keen on kayaking.
A: Really? I’d rather go surfing than kayaking.
B: The problem with surfing is that the sea is too cold at this time of year.
A: Yes, I suppose you’re right. What about parkour?
B: Sorry, but I don’t really fancy parkour.
A: Why not?
B: Well, don’t you think it would be dangerous? I’ve never done it before. I’m sure I’d injure myself.
A: OK. How about karting? I like the idea of that.
B: Yes, I think karting would be fun. But it’s quite expensive, isn’t it? Hiking is another option.
A: Hiking would certainly be cheaper, but less fun in my opinion. OK, I think we need to make a decision. There’s a good karting circuit near the shopping centre. I don’t think it’s very expensive. So, overall I think karting would be better. B OK. That’s settled then. Let’s go karting.
Tạm dịch:
A: Cho nên chúng ta sẽ thực hiện một hoạt động phiêu lưu vào ngày đi chơi. Bạn nghĩ gì chúng ta nên làm gì?
B: Chà, tôi khá thích chèo thuyền kayak.
A: Thật sao? Tôi thích đi lướt sóng hơn chèo thuyền kayak.
B: Vấn đề củaviệc lướt sóng là biển quá lạnh vào thời điểm này trong năm.
A: Ừ nhỉ, bạn nói đúng. Parkour thì sao?
B: Xin lỗi, nhưng tôi không thực sự thích parkour.
A: Sao thế?
B: Ừm, bạn có nghĩ là nó nguy hiểm không? Tôi chưa bao giờ chơi nó trước đây. Chắc tôi sẽ tự làm mình bị thương mất.
A: Được. Đua xe karting thì sao? Tôi thích ý tưởng đó.
B: Ừ, tôi nghĩ đua xe karting sẽ rất vui đấy. Nhưng nó khá đắt, phải không? Đi bộ đường dài là cũng là một lựa chọn.
A: Đi bộ đường dài chắc chắn sẽ rẻ hơn, nhưng theo tôi thì ít thú vị hơn. OK, tôi nghĩ chúng ta cần đưa ra quyết định. Có một chỗ đua xe kart tốt gần trung tâm mua sắm. Tôi không nghĩ nó quá đắt đâu. Vậy nên nói chung là tôi nghĩ rằng karting sẽ tốt hơn.
B: Được rồi. Quyết định vậy đi. Hãy cùng đưa xe kart.
