Question 6. Would you like _____ milk in your coffee?

A. any B. some C. a few D. a little

Any: Từ này thường được sử dụng trong câu phủ định hoặc câu hỏi khi
bạn không chắc chắn về sự có mặt của một cái gì đó. Ví dụ, "Bạn có bất
kỳ sữa nào không?" Tuy nhiên, nó nghe có vẻ không tự nhiên trong ngữ
cảnh này, vì đây là một đề nghị tích cực.
Some: Đây là lựa chọn phù hợp nhất ở đây. Nó được sử dụng trong các
câu khẳng định và đề nghị. Câu hỏi đang hỏi xem người đó có muốn một
lượng sữa nào đó hay không, điều này làm cho "một chút" trở thành lựa
chọn tốt nhất.
A few: Cụm từ này được sử dụng với danh từ đếm được và ám chỉ một
số lượng nhỏ của một cái gì đó (ví dụ, "a few cookies"). Sữa là một danh
từ không đếm được, vì vậy lựa chọn này không phù hợp.

được, nhưng nó thường ám chỉ một lượng nhỏ hơn là đưa ra một đề nghị.

In the Mekong Delta, Long Dinh village in Tien Giang province is famous for its traditional
craft of weaving sedge mats. The mats' high quality makes them popular domestically, and
they are also exported to markets worldwide. In spite of Its well- established reputation for
this traditional craft, mat weaving only started here some 50 years ago. It was first introduced
by immigrants from Kim Son, a famous mat-weaving village in Ninh Binh province.

is somewhat different. Long Dinh branded mats are thicker and have more attractive colours
and patterns.

June; otherwise:neu kothi, when the rainy season starts in July, they will have to put off
finishing their products till the next dry season. No matter how much work it requires, Long
Dinh mat producers stick with this occupation, as it brings a higher income than growing rice.
