Bài tập tiếng anh 12 – Trường THPT Lê Hồng Phong Năm học 2007- 2008 1
Các em học sinh thân mến,
“ Bài Tập Anh Văn 12” là tài liệu để giáo viên làm cơ sở hướng dẫn các em ôn luyện chuẩn bò cho kỳ thi tốt
nghiệp. Tài liệu được biên soạn ngắn gọn, cơ bản nhằm giúp các em nắm được một cách khái quát những kiến
thức của môn Tiếng Anh.
Phần bài tập có một số ít do giáo viên tự biên soạn, phần lớn được sưu tầm từ các sách bài tập phổ biến
hiện nay và được trình bày theo từng vấn đề hoặc chủ điểm.
Với ý đònh làm một bộ bài tập ôn tập, tài liệu này chắc chắn không phải là một giáo trình ngữ pháp đầy đủ
và hoàn chỉnh, cho nên các em cần bám sát sách giáo khoa cũng như các sách tham khảo khác để tự nâng cao
kiến thức.
Đây là tập tài liệu mà các giáo viên biên soạn ở dạng bài tập trắc nghiệm nhằm củng cố kiến thức các em
đã học và chúng tôi hi vọng đây là những kiến thức cốt lõi nhất mà một học sinh trung bình cần nắm để chuẩn
bò cho kỳ thi tốt nghiệp THPT.
Mong các em hết sức cố gắng dưới sự hướng dẫn của thầy cô và sự nỗ lực của bản thân.
Chúc các em đạt được kết quả cao nhất trong những kỳ thi sắp tới.
