3
 ĐỀ CƯƠNG ÔN TẬP ANH 9 GIỮA KÌ 1 (2024-2025)

ancient crafts. One of the crafts that makes the island well-known is basket weaving. This is
considered one of the most remarkable handicrafts on the island because it combines manual skills
and natural resources.
Baskets are usually woven by Sardinian women. They have handed down the techniques from
generation to generation. The shapes and dimensions of the baskets are different according to the
technique, the area of production, and the kind of material used. They use various natural materials
such as willow, palm, straw, and hay.
In the past, people hung the baskets on the walls of their houses or displayed them on shelves like
artwork. Today the baskets are used in homes or used for decorative purposes. People really
appreciate the craft because nowadays it is increasingly rare to find good quality baskets like these.
Sardinian people believe that basket weaving is a dying skill and they hope to preserve it in the
future.

III. Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct
answer to each of the following questions.
Many individuals frequently express their frustration about not having enough time to complete
their tasks. The hours and minutes seem to slip away before many planned chores get done.
According to time management experts, the main reason for this is that most people fail to set
priorities about what to do first. They get tied down by trivial, time-consuming matters, leaving the
important ones unfinished.
One simple solution often used by those at the top is to keep lists of tasks to be accomplished
daily. These lists order jobs from most essential to least essential and are checked regularly through
the day to assess progress. Not only is this an effective way to manage time, but also it serves to give
individuals a much-deserved sense of satisfaction over their achievements. On the other hand, those
who do not keep lists often find themselves at the end of the workday uncertain about the significance
of their achievements. Over time, this uncertainty can contribute to serious problems in both mental
and physical health.

A. Learning to manage time B. Achieving Job Satisfaction
