    Đáp án: <p>other</p>

    Phương pháp giải:

    C. lots: thiếu “of” - không dùng trực tiếp trước danh từ => sai

    D. other: dùng được trước danh từ số nhiều => đúng

    Câu hoàn chỉnh: Even when you know how to ignore irrelevant detail, there are other improvements you can make to your reading style which will increase your speed.
