Hướng dẫn giải chi tiết
(AI giải đề cho tôi)
Câu gốc: 'Peter used to work as a journalist for a local newspaper.' - 'used to + V' diễn tả thói quen/trạng thái trong quá khứ nay không còn nữa. Do đó nghĩa tương đương là 'Peter has stopped working as a journalist for a local newspaper' (Peter đã ngừng làm phóng viên). B sai vì không nói về việc thích hay không thích công việc; C sai vì 'refused to work' nghĩa là từ chối làm, không phải đã từng làm; D sai vì 'enjoyed' chỉ nói về cảm xúc khi làm, không hàm ý đã dừng lại. Đáp án A khớp nghĩa và khớp đáp án nguồn (trang 5: câu 15 = A).
