"Gulp for air" = Ngụm không khí -> Hăm hở và liều lĩnh để cố gắng được thở.

Ví dụ
Once you're there, you'll need to dive down (lặn xuống) under the water until you see the fairly large opening - watch out for sharks (cẩn thận với cá mập) - and follow the water around until you reach a spot where you can swim up to the surface. After here, there's a brief chance to gulp for air until you continue on through the blue, again until you reach an area where you can surface again.

At this point, fish swim to the surface (bề mặt) to gulp for air or they leave the system entirely. Sedentary (không di trú theo mùa) animals like clams (con trai, sò) can’t leave the estuary (cửa sông), so they are forced to hold their breath or die — which unfortunately many do. The water becomes milky (nhiều sữa) white and devoid (trống rỗng, không có) of anything other than decomposing (phân hủy, mục rửa) matter and bacteria (vi khuẩn).

Veterinarian (bác sỹ thú y) Dr. Kate Papp is one of those people whose brain is always on overdrive (bắt làm quá sức), as if it has its own direct infusion (sự truyền) of caffeine. She sometimes has to gulp for air mid-sentence because although she speaks fast, it isn't fast enough to get one thought out before another one breaks through. She frequently wakes up at three in the morning, flipping on the light to scribble down (viết vội vàng, nguệch ngoạc) thoughts and questions about her most difficult cases.
