Answer 1

[Dương Hoàn Anh]

Đáp án B.

Tạm dịch: Israel, Ấn Độ và Pakistan thường được cho là có sở hữu vũ khí hạt nhân, loại vũ khí chỉ sử dụng sự phân hạch nguyên tử,

Cấu trúc bị động đặc biệt:

People/ they + say/ thinjk /believe… + (that) + S + V + O.

Cách 1: It + to be (chia cùng thì với say/ think/ believe) + said/ thought/ believed … + that + S + V.

Ex: People said that he was nice to his friends.

→ It was said that he was nice to his friends.

Cách 2: S + to be ( chia cùng thì với say/ think/ believe) + said/ thought/ believed… + to V + O.

Ex: People said that he was nice to his friends.

→: He was said to be nice to his friends.

Nếu động từ ở mệnh đề sau “that” xảy ra trước động từ ở mệnh đề trước “that”

Thì chuyển về dạng to have PP.

Ex: People said that he had been nice to his friends.

→ He was said to have been nice to his friends.

Xét câu đề bài: (… are generally believed to have …) ta thấy động từ phía sau ở dạng “to V” nên khi chuyển sang dạng bị động bắt đầu với It thì động từ sau “that” phải cùng thì HTĐ như động từ trước “that”.

Vậy ta chọn đáp án B
