Dạng này hỏi gì và làm thế nào
Expression of Ideas hỏi hai thứ: chọn từ nối đúng quan hệ logic, và ghép các
gạch đầu dòng cho sẵn thành câu phục vụ đúng mục tiêu đề nêu.
Với từ nối, đừng chọn theo cảm giác. Che từ nối đi, đọc hai vế, tự gọi tên quan hệ giữa chúng
(bổ sung · đối lập · nguyên nhân · kết quả · ví dụ · nhượng bộ) rồi mới tìm từ khớp. Với Rhetorical Synthesis,
câu lệnh mới là đề — đọc kỹ mục tiêu trước khi đọc các gạch đầu dòng.
Đọc kỹ hơn: cách đọc quan hệ logic trong câu.

- In other words,
Xem đáp án và lời giải
Đáp án: A. As a result,
Sentence 3 reports what the price collapse of sentence 2 produced, so the slot needs a word that marks an effect, and As a result, does exactly that. Nevertheless, (B) and By contrast, (C) both require sentence 3 to pull against sentence 2, but cheap foil is the natural continuation of a collapse in price. In other words, (D) would need sentence 3 to say sentence 2 over again, and it adds a new fact instead.
Bẫy: Chỗ trống nằm sau một câu có chữ “cut” nên tay muốn chọn từ đối lập. Đối lập với cái gì? Câu 3 đi cùng chiều với câu 2, không chống lại nó.

Bamboo scaffolding is still standard on high-rise sites in Hong Kong, and engineers who have tested it report that it flexes in typhoon winds where steel tube would buckle. Across the rest of the region steel has replaced it almost entirely. ____ the reason for the switch is not performance but insurance: underwriters price a material they have tables for, and nobody has published tables for bamboo.
Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?
- However,
- Similarly,
- For example,
- In fact,

Đáp án: D. In fact,
Sentence 3 goes behind the replacement reported in sentence 2 and names its real driver, and In fact, is the transition for correcting the reader's likely assumption with the underlying truth. However, (A) would require the switch and its cause to conflict, and they do not. Similarly, (B) needs a parallel case, and none is offered. For example, (C) needs sentence 3 to be an instance of sentence 2, but an explanation of why steel won is not an instance of steel winning.
Bẫy: Câu 3 giải thích nguyên nhân, không nêu ví dụ và cũng không quay đầu. Thử đọc lại cả ba câu liền mạch sẽ thấy chiều lập luận không hề đổi.
Câu 3KhóTrắc nghiệmcó lời giải
Solar cells lose efficiency as they heat up, and a panel at 65 degrees produces roughly a fifth less power than the same panel at 25. Deserts, the sunniest places available, are also the hottest. ____ desert installations out-produce temperate ones by a wide margin, because the extra hours of direct sun outweigh the loss in each hour.
Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?
- Therefore,
- Likewise,
- Even so,
- In particular,
Xem đáp án và lời giải
Đáp án: C. Even so,
Sentences 1 and 2 build a reason to expect deserts to be poor sites, and sentence 3 reports the opposite outcome, so the slot needs a concessive word that keeps the earlier point while overriding it — Even so,. Therefore, (A) claims sentence 3 follows from the heat penalty, which is the reverse of what it says. Likewise, (B) needs sentence 3 to repeat the pattern of sentence 2. In particular, (D) needs it to narrow sentence 2 to a case, and it changes the verdict rather than narrowing it.
Bẫy: Đoạn dựng sẵn một kỳ vọng rồi lật. Nếu đọc câu 3 mà thấy “ngược với điều vừa dựng” thì mọi từ nối nhân quả đều rơi ngay.
Câu 4KhóTrắc nghiệmcó lời giải
Museum visitors spend a median of seventeen seconds in front of a painting, and curators have long read that figure as evidence of distraction. Eye-tracking in three galleries found that the seventeen seconds are densely used: fixations cluster on faces and hands and return to them repeatedly. ____ a number that looked like inattention turns out to describe a rapid and orderly kind of looking.
Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?
- By contrast,
- In short,
- Nonetheless,
- Otherwise,

Đáp án: B. In short,
Sentence 3 states in one line the conclusion that the eye-tracking result of sentence 2 has already established, which is the job of In short,. By contrast, (A) and Nonetheless, (C) both require a turn away from sentence 2, and sentence 3 travels with it. Otherwise, (D) would need sentence 3 to describe what happens if the eye-tracking finding does not hold.

Câu 5KhóTrắc nghiệm
Fluorescent lighting was promoted in the 1940s as the cheap alternative to incandescent bulbs, and on energy consumed per unit of light it was.

Populations moved down to lowland aviaries revert within three generations to clutches of the lowland size. ____ lowland birds raised in cold chambers begin producing the highland pattern, which is what an explanation resting on temperature rather than on ancestry predicts.

Later cables used lower voltages and thicker insulation, and the cable of 1866 worked for years without a break. ____ the failure of 1858 taught the industry more than the success of 1866, because it isolated the variable that mattered.
