People think children should play sports Sports are fun, and children stay healthy while playing with others However, playing sports can have negative effects on children It may produce feelings of poor self-esteem or aggressive behaviour in some children According to research on kids and sports, 40 million kids play sports in the US Of these, 18 million say they have been yelled at or called names while playing sports This leaves many children with a bad impression of sports They think sports are just too aggressive Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main cause of too much aggression in children’s sports They believe children copy aggressive adult behaviour This behaviour is then further reinforced through both positive and negative feedback Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that winning is everything At children’s sporting events, parents may yell insults at other players or cheer when their child behaves aggressively As well, children may be taught that hurting other players is acceptable, or they may be pushed to continue playing even when they are injured In addition, the media makes violence seem exciting Children watch adult sports games and see violent behaviour replayed over and over on television As a society, we really need to face up to this problem and something about it Parents and coaches should act as better examples for children They also need to teach children better values They should teach children to enjoy themselves whether they win or not It is not necessary to knock yourself out to enjoy sports Winning is not everything In addition, children should not be allowed to continue to play when they are injured Sending a child with an injury into a game gives the child the message that health is not as important as winning If we make some basic changes, children might learn to enjoy sports again (Source: "Reading Challenge 2", Casey Malarcher & Andrea Janzen, Compass Publishing) Question 15: Which is described as the main cause of more aggressive playing?

It’s a hard task certainly, but the local council have begun to take on the challenge They have launched and advertising campaign has been a success As local resident Brian Maloney says, "Eastbourne may never take (40) from Brighton as a centre of youth culture but the town is slowly beginning to attract more young people."

A To discuss the two types of sleep B To recommend an increase in the number of hours of sleep C To describe REM sleepD To explain sleep deprivation Question 44: The word "vague" in paragraph could best be replaced by A detailed B unpleasant C familiar D indefinite Question 45: Which response is NOT typical of REM sleep?

A Five to thirty B Three to five C Eight D Ninety Question 50: It can be inferred from the passage that students who are writing term papers A can stay up all night working and recover the sleep they need by sleeping for a few hours the next afternoon B not need as much sleep because of the heightened brain waves involved in creative activity C need REM sleep to restore mental functioning D require slow-wave sleep to increase mental activity SỞ GIÁO DỤC ĐÀO TẠO ĐỀ CHÍNH THỨC (Đề gồm có 04 trang) Mark(s) ÔN THI TỐT NGHIỆP TRUNG HỌC PHỔ THÔNG NĂM HỌC 2016- 2017 MÔN TIẾNG ANH ~ MÃ ĐỀ 828 Thời gian: 60 phút - không tính thời gian giao đề Mã Phách ……… Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions SLEEP CYCLES Whether one is awake or as leep, the brain emits electrical waves These waves occur in predictable sleep cycles that can be measured with an electroencephalograph, known more commonly as an EEG During wakefulness, the waves are recorded at about ten small waves per second, but with the onset of sleep, the waves become larger and slower The largest, slowest waves occur during the first three hours of sleep when mental activity slows down but does not stop In fact, if awakened from slow-wave sleep, a person can often remember vague thoughts that occurred during that period of sleep, but the sleeper does not generally dream Referred to as NREM or non-REM sleep, it is characterized by large, slow waves During sleep, intervals of small, fast waves also occur in patterns similar to those experienced while awake The eyes move rapidly, and it appears to the observer that the sleeper is watching some event Sleepers who are awakened during this rapideye-movement sleep will often recall the details of dreams they have been having Sleep of this kind is called dreaming sleep or rapid-eye-movement sleep, also known as REM sleep REM sleep is emotionally charged The heart beats irregularly, and blood pressure may be elevated In contrast, the body is so still that the dreamer may appear to be paralyzed In a period of eight hours, most sleepers experience from three to five instances of REM sleep Each instance lasts from five to thirty minutes with an interval of at least ninety minutes between each one Later instances of REM sleep are usually of longer duration than are instances earlier in the eight-hour period Since people who suffer sleep deprivation experience fatigue, irritability, and loss of concentration, we must conclude that sleep is essential because in some way it regenerates the brain and the nervous system NREM sleep increases after physical exertion, whereas REM sleep tends to increase after a stressful day Studies suggest that non-REM sleep may be especially helpful in restoring muscle control, whereas REM sleep may be more important in revitalizing mental activity It appears that both kinds of sleep are necessary, and the recuperation of sleep of one kind will not compensate for a lack of the other kind of sleep (Adapted from "Barron’s Practice Exercises for the TOEFL, 6th edition") Question 1: The word "vague" in paragraph could best be replaced by A detailed B indefinite C unpleasant D familiar Question 2: What is the author's main purpose in the passage?

People think children should play sports Sports are fun, and children stay healthy while playing with others However, playing sports can have negative effects on children It may produce feelings of poor self-esteem or aggressive behaviour in some children According to research on kids and sports, 40 million kids play sports in the US Of these, 18 million say they have been yelled at or called names while playing sports This leaves many children with a bad impression of sports They think sports are just too aggressive Many researchers believe adults, especially parents and coaches, are the main cause of too much aggression in children’s sports They believe children copy aggressive adult behaviour This behaviour is then further reinforced through both positive and negative feedback Parents and coaches are powerful teachers because children usually look up to them Often these adults behave aggressively themselves, sending children the message that winning is everything At children’s sporting events, parents may yell insults at other players or cheer when their child behaves aggressively As well, children may be taught that hurting other players is acceptable, or they may be pushed to continue playing even when they are injured In addition, the media makes violence seem exciting Children watch adult sports games and see violent behaviour replayed over and over on television As a society, we really need to face up to this problem and something about it Parents and coaches should act as better examples for children They also need to teach children better values They should teach children to enjoy themselves whether they win or not It is not necessary to knock yourself out to enjoy sports Winning is not everything In addition, children should not be allowed to continue to play when they are injured Sending a child with an injury into a game gives the child the message that health is not as important as winning If we make some basic changes, children might learn to enjoy sports again (Source: "Reading Challenge 2", Casey Malarcher & Andrea Janzen, Compass Publishing) Question 36: What does the writer suggest?
