1. What does Matthew suggest about adults' reasons for valuing holidays?
2

Đề Thi Chuyên Anh Tuyển Sinh 10 Năm 2026-2027 liên hệ Zalo O988166193 để mua ạ

A. Childhood memories may explain why adults value holidays, but adults now mainly seek quiet
release from activity.
B. Adults usually choose holidays that allow their children to recreate the pleasures they themselves
once enjoyed.
C. Adults value unfamiliar destinations chiefly because such places make family bonding easier.
D. Adults gradually outgrow their attraction to sensory experiences and unfamiliar places as family
responsibilities accumulate over time.
2. What point does Emma make about the “holiday happiness curve”?
A. The final stage of a holiday is usually the happiest because travel problems have already been
forgotten.
B. People's mood declines steadily once they become aware that the holiday is coming to an end.
C. Enjoyment tends to recover near the end after an earlier dip linked to the thought that the holiday
is nearly over.
D. Early travel difficulties have a stronger effect on enjoyment than anything that happens during the
holiday itself.
3. What did Matthew's diary research suggest about tourists' accounts of their holidays?
A. Tourists tend to exaggerate daily difficulties in diaries because they know researchers will read
them later.
B. Keeping a diary while travelling makes tourists focus too much on problems and enjoy the trip
less.
C. Physically demanding holidays produce more reliable memories than less challenging forms of
travel.
D. Difficulties recorded during the trip may disappear from later accounts, making the holiday seem
better in memory.
4. What do Matthew and Emma agree makes holiday research difficult to interpret?
A. People often refuse to say whether work has affected their enjoyment of a holiday.
B. Feelings linked to holidays may partly come from work pressures before or after the trip.
C. The benefits of holidays depend mainly on whether employees have secure jobs.
D. Travel stress and work stress usually affect people in the same way and cannot be separated.
5. What advice do Matthew and Emma both support at the end of the interview?
A. Read about the destination before travelling so that the holiday feels more meaningful.
B. Book far in advance only after deciding exactly who will be travelling with you.
C. Reduce the cost and planning involved so that holidays can be taken spontaneously.
3

D. Take holidays more often rather than relying on a single major break each year.

PART 2. The passage below contains 10 mistakes. Identify and correct the mistakes. Write your
answers in the boxes provided.
In our contemporary, technologically saturated environment, constant smartphone notifications have
a severe affect on mental health and academic performance. A growing reliance in digital gadgets makes it
increasingly difficult for students to maintain focus, especially when one notification is followed almost
immediately by another.
For many youngsters, spending a weekend at a screen-free retreat is benefiting. The idea may seem
intimidating at first, particularly for those who are constantly connected to social networks. Yet stepping
away from cyberspace can strengthen face-to-face relationships and encourage an unique appreciation of
outdoor activities. Despite they may worry about missing messages or being socially cut off at first, most
participants soon find that the initial unease begins to fade.
Health professions often recommend leaving all digital devices outside the bedroom, especially
during the final hour before sleep. This habit protects sleep at a time which the body needs deep rest and
recovery, and it stops users from letting persuasive algorithms to control their attention.
Regular periods away from screens can also reduce mental exhaustion. If teenagers commits to
establishing clear technological boundaries, they are more likely to use digital tools with purpose rather than
out of habit. The goal is to use devices in a highly mindfully and balanced way.
PART 3. Use the word given in capitals at the end of each line to form a word that fits in the space in
the same line. Write your answers in the boxes provided.
E-Learning Platforms
E-learning is a digital educational framework that enables students to access virtual courses enriched
with interactive quizzes, videos, and discussion forums. The rise of online learning can be attributed to its
appeal to modern students who appreciate its flexible interface, (1. STIMULATE) _____________ content

The Chronopolitical Misreading of Adolescent Sleep
One of the more durable assumptions in modern schooling and parenting is that adolescent lethargy
is, at bottom, a failure of discipline. The chronically somnolent teenager is still routinely interpreted as
obstinate, indulgent or insufficiently trained into adult habits of punctuality. Yet chronobiology complicates
that moral story. During puberty, the adolescent sleep cycle undergoes an ontogenetic phase shift: melatonin
secretion is delayed, sleep pressure accumulates differently, and early-morning alertness becomes
physiologically harder to achieve. What adults often read as recalcitrance may therefore be better understood
as a biological rhythm being forced into an institutionally convenient timetable.
The difficulty is not merely that teenagers go to bed late and wake late. Rather, their internal timing
system is repeatedly made to oscillate between incompatible regimes: school-week obligations impose
exogenous demands, while weekends allow the endogenous drive to reassert itself. “Catch-up sleep” can
reduce the subjective feeling of exhaustion, but it does not necessarily restore temporal stability. Indeed, the
very alternation between deprivation and compensation produces what researchers often call social jetlag: a
metabolic and cognitive cost generated less by a single late night than by the repeated wrenching of the body
clock between competing schedules.
Nor is this phase delay simply a pathology of smartphones or electric light. Evolutionary accounts
remain necessarily inferential, but anthropological evidence suggests that staggered sleep patterns may have
had adaptive value in pre-industrial communities, where the wakefulness of adolescents could contribute to
collective vigilance while older adults slept. Whether or not this explanation is exhaustive, it undercuts the
claim that teenage nocturnality is a recent moral decay. Digital culture can certainly intensify the problem,
but it amplifies a pre-existing biological disposition rather than inventing it.
That distinction matters because circadian misalignment does not manifest with uniform severity. In
communities where artificial light plays a limited role, the symptoms may be less conspicuous; in screensaturated societies, they may be magnified. Yet mitigation is not eradication. A teenager may develop
excellent sleep hygiene, limit evening screen exposure and maintain a consistent bedtime, but such discipline
works within the parameters of a shifted biological system. It can reduce friction between biology and
schedule; it cannot convert adolescent chronobiology into adult chronobiology on command.
The developmental stakes are considerable. Chronic sleep deprivation often coincides with a period
in which the prefrontal cortex is still maturing, and restorative sleep supports memory consolidation as well
as emotional regulation. The point is not that adolescents are neurologically defective. It is that a biologically
ordinary phase becomes costly when institutions systematically require young people to perform cognitive
labour at times when their bodies are least prepared for it. The problem lies in the collision between
developmental timing and social timing.
8

Nevertheless, adult society tends to treat its own timetable as neutral. Early rising is associated with

Đề Thi Chuyên Anh Tuyển Sinh 10 Năm 2026-2027 liên hệ Zalo O988166193 để mua ạ

maturity, diligence and moral seriousness, while sleeping late is made to signify carelessness or sloth. This
hierarchy is not simply descriptive; it is institutionally reinforced. Corporate hours, school bells and
transport systems all confer an aura of normality on adult schedules, making them appear biologically
superior when they may merely be socially privileged.
Adult chronotypes themselves are diverse, but that diversity is partly obscured by the fact that
institutions are built around adult working rhythms.
This helps explain why school start-time reform remains contentious. Examples such as Edina Public
Schools in Minnesota and the Seattle School District are not proof that every reform produces identical
outcomes, nor do they abolish the adolescent phase delay itself. Their significance is more modest but more
philosophically unsettling: they show that the early timetable is not a law of nature. Institutional
arrangements can be altered when they are made to answer to neurobiological evidence rather than inherited
habits of adult convenience.
The larger question, then, is not whether teenagers should be excused from responsibility. Sleep
hygiene, digital boundaries and personal routines remain important. But a society that treats adolescent
biology as a character defect mistakes compliance for maturity and convenience for truth. If education is to
be genuinely developmental, it must ask not only how young people can adapt to institutions, but also when
institutions should be recalibrated to fit the young people they claim to serve.
1. According to the first paragraph, what is the author's main objection to the conventional interpretation of
adolescent lethargy?
A. It assumes that teenagers are biologically incapable of developing punctual habits before
adulthood.
B. It moralizes a physiologically grounded delay by recasting it as weakness or poor discipline.
C. It exaggerates the role of schooling while ignoring the influence of family routines on sleep.
D. It treats chronobiology as a convenient excuse for adolescents who reject adult expectations.
2. What does the discussion of “catch-up sleep” and “social jetlag” suggest?
A. Alternating between imposed schedules and biological rhythms allows the body clock to stabilise
around a midpoint over time.
B. Weekend recovery partially restores cognitive function but creates a cumulative metabolic cost
that persists into the school week.
C. Repeated movement between imposed schedules and biological timing creates a costly instability.
D. Social jetlag measures the psychological fatigue produced mainly by one severe night of sleep
loss.
3. What role does the evolutionary discussion in paragraph 3 play in the author's argument?
9

A. It proves that modern adolescents should maintain the nocturnal duties once required in tribal life.

Đề Thi Chuyên Anh Tuyển Sinh 10 Năm 2026-2027 liên hệ Zalo O988166193 để mua ạ

B. It demonstrates that digital habits, not biological predisposition, are the primary driver of
contemporary adolescent sleep difficulties.
C. It presents pre-industrial sleep patterns as morally superior to modern educational timetables.
D. It provides historical evidence that adolescent nocturnality predates modern social conditions.
4. Which distinction is most important to the author's argument in paragraph 4?
A. The distinction between mitigating the symptoms of phase delay and abolishing the biological
shift itself.
B. The distinction between adolescents who use screens irresponsibly and those who practise good
sleep hygiene.
C. The distinction between pre-industrial adolescents and modern adolescents as biologically separate
groups.
D. The distinction between sleep hygiene as an individual practice and circadian delay as a
scheduling problem.
5. What is the author's point about the neurological evidence in paragraph 5?
A. It proves that adolescent sleep delay should be treated as a genuine neurological disorder.
B. It shows that prefrontal development makes teenagers broadly unfit for academic responsibility.
C. It explains why forced early performance is especially costly during a normal developmental
phase.
D. It confirms that adolescents with good sleep hygiene develop prefrontal capacity at a normal rate.
6. Which distinction is most central to the author's argument across the passage?
A. The distinction between adolescent irresponsibility and adult moral consistency.
B. The distinction between digital distraction and traditional educational discipline.
C. The distinction between neurological disorder and culturally conditioned behavioral failure.
D. The distinction between biological timing and the institutional framing of normality.
7. Why does the author mention Edina Public Schools and the Seattle School District?
A. To show that early school schedules are historically contingent rather than biologically inevitable.
B. To demonstrate that school start-time reform has conclusively solved adolescent sleep deprivation.
C. To argue that local reforms matter only when they produce identical results in every district.
D. To show that neurobiological evidence justifies replacing all schedules with individually tailored
timetables.
8. Which statement best captures the author's qualification of school start-time reform?
A. Reform is valuable because it proves adolescent sleep delay is socially produced, not biological.
B. Reform cannot abolish phase delay, but it exposes early scheduling as historically contingent.
10

C. Reform is unnecessary because disciplined teenagers can overcome circadian delay through sleep

hygiene.
D. Reform is persuasive only if it yields identical academic gains in all participating districts.
PART 4. Read the following passage and do the tasks below.
THE PERFORMATIVE IDENTITY OF THE DIGITAL ADOLESCENT
Section A. The contemporary adolescent does not merely use digital platforms; increasingly, he or she
becomes socially legible through them. Identity is no longer formed only through classroom encounters,
family rituals or neighbourhood friendships, but through a semi-public arena in which the self is
continuously displayed, interpreted and corrected. Smartphones have collapsed the distinction between
private experimentation and public performance: an awkward opinion, an unflattering image or an
unguarded joke may be archived, circulated and judged long after the moment has passed. In this sense,
social media has become less a communicative accessory than an infrastructure of adolescent selfhood,
turning identity formation into a process of perpetual visibility.
Section B. This digital visibility is powerful because it attaches itself to an old biological need. Adolescents
have always been unusually sensitive to peer evaluation; evolutionary psychologists often interpret this
sensitivity as part of a broader drive toward social belonging and group acceptance. What digital platforms
do is not create this need ex nihilo, but translate it into quantifiable signals. Likes, shares, comments and
follower counts transform belonging into a dashboard of social worth. The adolescent is therefore not simply
“seeking attention” in the crude sense. Rather, a developmentally normal hunger for recognition is converted
into a measurable economy of approval, making social status appear both instantly visible and endlessly
revisable.
Section C. The result is the emergence of a carefully managed performative self. Digital adolescents learn,
often without explicit instruction, to anticipate how a future audience might interpret each image, caption or
silence. The online persona must appear spontaneous while being painstakingly curated; it must seem
authentic while suppressing precisely those awkward, contradictory and unfinished elements that make
adolescence psychologically real. This labour of self-presentation can become corrosive. When the curated
avatar begins to diverge too sharply from the lived self, teenagers may experience not simple vanity but a
more destabilising dissonance: the sense that the version of themselves most rewarded by others is also the
least truthful.
Section D. Yet the constant availability of others does not necessarily produce genuine intimacy. A teenager
may be connected to hundreds of acquaintances and still lack relationships grounded in vulnerability, trust
and sustained attention. Much online exchange is reciprocal only in the thinnest sense: one visible gesture is
exchanged for another, while little emotional risk is actually taken. Such interactions can simulate
recognition without requiring the depth of mutual presence on which intimacy depends. The paradox is
