According to the World Health Organization, malaria, a disease spread by mosquitoes, affect
millions of people every year. Everyone knows how irritated the noise made by a mosquito, followed
by a painful reaction to their bite, can be. It is astonishing that so little is known about why
mosquitoes are drawn to or drive away from people, given the level of distress and disease caused by
these insects. We know that the most effective chemical for protecting people against mosquitoes is
diethyltoluamide, commonly shortened to diet. Because diet works well, it has some serious
drawbacks: it can damage clothes and some people are allergic with it.
Scientists know that mosquitoes find some people to be more attractive than others, but they do
not know why this should be. They also know that people vary in their reactions to mosquito bites.
One person has a painful swelling while other, who is bitten by the same mosquito, may hardly
notice. Scientists have never discovered the reason for this, but they have carried out experiments to
show that mosquitoes are attracted to, or put off by, certain smells. In the future, scientists hope to
develop a smell that mosquitoes can resist. This could be used in a trap so that, instead of attacking
people, mosquitoes would fly into the trap and be destroyed. For the time being, however, we have to
continue spraying us with unpleasant liquids if we want to avoid getting bitten.

answers A, B, C or D in the corresponding numbered boxes.
Aggression
Aggressive behavior is any behavior that is intended to cause injury, pain, suffering, damage, or
destruction. While aggressive behavior is often thought of as purely physical, verbal attacks such as
screaming and shouting or belittling and humiliating comments aimed at causing harm and suffering can also

Tiếng Anh THPT – Bảng A

be a type of aggression. What is key to the definition of aggression is that whenever harm is inflicted, be it
physical or verbal, it is intentional.
Questions about the causes of aggression have long been of concern to both social and biological
scientists. Theories about the causes of aggression cover a broad spectrum, ranging from those with
biological or instinctive emphases to those that portray aggression as a learned behavior.
Numerous theories are based on the idea that aggression is an inherent and natural human instinct.
Aggression has been explained as an instinct that is directed externally toward others in a process called
displacement, and it has been noted that aggressive impulses that are not channeled toward a specific person
or group may be expressed indirectly through socially acceptable activities such as sports and competition in
a process called catharsis. Biological, or instinctive, theories of aggression have also been put forth by
ethologists, who study the behavior of animals in their natural environments. A number of ethologists have,
based upon their observations of animals, supported the view that aggression is an innate instinct common to
humans.
Two different schools of thought exist among those who view aggression as instinct. One group
holds the view that aggression can build up spontaneously, with or without outside provocation, and violent
behavior will thus result, perhaps as a result of little or no provocation. Another suggests that aggression is
indeed an instinctive response but that, rather than occurring spontaneously and without provocation, it is a
direct response to provocation from an outside source.

In contrast to instinct theories, social learning theories view aggression as a learned behavior. This
approach focuses on the effect that role models and reinforcement of behavior have on the acquisition of
aggressive behavior. Research has shown that aggressive behavior can be learned through a combination of
modeling and positive reinforcement of the aggressive behavior and that children are influenced by the
combined forces of observing aggressive behavior in parents, peers, or fictional role models and of noting
either positive reinforcement for the aggressive behavior or, minimally, a lack of negative reinforcement for
the behavior. While research has provided evidence that the behavior of a live model is more influential than
that of a fictional model, fictional models of aggressive behavior such as those seen in movies and on
television, do still have an impact on behavior. On-screen deaths or acts of violent behavior in certain
television programs or movies can be counted in the tens, or hundreds, or even thousands; while some have
argued that this sort of fictional violence does not in and of itself cause violence and may even have a
beneficial cathartic effect, studies have shown correlations between viewing of violence and incidences of
aggressive behavior in both childhood and adolescence. Studies have also shown that it is not just the
modeling of aggressive behavior in either its real-life or fictional form that correlates with increased acts of
violence in youths; a critical factor in increasing aggressive behaviors is the reinforcement of the behavior. If
the aggressive role model is rewarded rather than punished for violent behavior, that behavior is more likely
to be seen as positive and is thus more likely to be imitated.
26. Which of the following is NOT defined as aggressive behavior?
A. Inflicting pain accidentally
B. Making insulting remarks
C. Destroying property
D. Trying unsuccessfully to injure someone
27. The author mentions belittling and humiliating comments in paragraph 1 in order to _________.
A. demonstrate how serious the problem of aggression is
B. clarify the difference between intentional and unintentional aggression
C. provide examples of verbal aggression
D. illustrate the nature of physical aggression
28. According to paragraph 3, displacement is _________.
A. internally directed aggression
B. a modeled type of aggression

C. aggression that is unintentional
D. aggression that is directed outward
29. It can be inferred from paragraph 3 that catharsis _________.

Part 4: Read the following passage about four people who took part in producing a school newspaper
and answer the questions from 36 to 50. The options may be chosen more than once. Write your

answers A, B, C or D in the corresponding numbered boxes.
SCHOOL NEWSPAPER
Four young people talk about taking part in their school newspaper.
A. Shauna – Editor
I felt proud when my teacher asked me to be the editor of the school newspaper, though I had not done
anything like it before. I assumed it was because I got the best marks in English but I soon found out that
there were lots of skills needed to do a successful job of putting newspaper together! Luckily I was allowed
to choose two “sub-editors” to help – people who had relevant skills and who I thought I would work well
with. I guess the easiest option would have been to choose my best friends, but I wanted to be as fair as
possible so I asked my teacher for help. She made some useful recommendations and together we decided
who to take on. There was a list of challenging decisions – what articles to include, who would do the
writing … It seemed a lot to take in at first but the team did a great job in the end.
B. Carlos – Reporter
Tiếng Anh THPT – Bảng A

It was a bit anxious about writing an article for the school newspaper. I think I was chosen because I’d just
won a short story-writing competition, though they didn’t actually tell me that. I knew that reporting was a
completely different style of writing which I was not sure I’d be able to develop. I’m a shy person so going
out and talking to people was scary. But it made me push myself in a way I wouldn’t usually choose and once
I’d build up some courage, I actually had fun going up to strangers to interview them or ask them about their
experiences and opinions. I think taking part in something like this is a great way to build skills like
teamwork and communication, especially when you’re working with people you might otherwise not have
much chance to talk to. I was really pleased to see my article in print when the newspaper was published. It
was a really worthwhile experience.
C. Raquel – Proofreader
I think most people would have found my job on the newspaper the most boring – checking for errors before
it went to print. I suppose I am fortunate that I have an eye for finding mistakes – little things just seem to

jump out at me. It was hard being the last person in the procedure because I ended up still working on the
paper when the others were celebrating the end of their own roles on the paper. I felt just as pleased once I’d
finished my part though. I really got a taste for doing this kind of work and I’ve definitely improved my skills
in the area. I wouldn’t have minded having a go at writing but maybe that’s something I’ll be able to do next
time. I think I missed out a bit on the fun that the others had while they were together planning the paper, but
it was a positive experience and I’m glad I took part.
D. Benjamin – Photographer
My role in the school newspaper was to take photos. I’d done a talk in my English class about my hobby and
I guess that’s why they chose me. I had an assistant who helped to decide what to take photos of, which
angles would be best and so on. It was great fun and I had the opportunity to be really creative. When the
newspaper came out I was a bit disappointed that it was in black and white! I’d completely forgotten about
that aspect of paper and I’d done what I’d thought were some really cool shots of the school art exhibition. I
just didn’t come across as well as it would have done in color but no one else was bothered and the artists
that were featured were really proud to have their work appear in the paper. I don’t think I developed many
new skills as far as photography was concerned, but I did have a lot of fun!

Part 5: Read the following passage and answer the questions from 51 to 60.
Playing psychological games
Tiếng Anh THPT – Bảng A

8



A.
‘Psychological games’ is an approach to relationships that developed around the 1960s. It is a way of looking
at the interaction between people – identifying what seem to be fixed scripts in a seemingly spontaneous
conversation. One person says something which seems to elicit a certain type of response from the other
person, and the response seems to demand yet another particular response from the first person. And on it
goes, as if the two people were following a script that someone had written.
B.
Games fall into a number of categories, ranging from the harmless to the destructive. Some harmless games
are even essential to social interaction - such as the 'Greeting Game' (‘Hello, how are you?’ “I'm fine, how are
you?”) and the “Thanks Game” (“Thank you for inviting me. I had a great time.”). Game playing is expected
in some situations. Everyone involved knows that it is a game, and what is expected. A sales person plays a
game of pleasing the prospective customer. Children play games with parents. In cases like these, the game
player creates an impression, saying things which are not sincere but are ways and means of getting what
they want. Other games, however, keep a relationship from developing to a more real and important level.
Still others can actually be destructive, as they are played by people with deeper psychological needs and
motivations for power, control or manipulation.
C.
Some people set out to manipulate others for their own reasons. But others may not realize that they are being
manipulative. They are acting rather from an emotional script. Like a child that wants something, and does all
sorts of things to get it, some game players act from their own internal desires, not realizing the effect their
words and actions have on others.
D.
A number of potentially damaging games have been identified. In the ‘Corner Game’ the manipulator backs
the other person into a corner – places them in a situation where anything they do is wrong. A parent
complains that their son or daughter’s room is never clean. Yet when the child tidies the room, the parent
says, “Why did it take you so long?” or “You haven’t tidied up inside the cupboard.” The ‘It’s Your Decision
Game’ is played by people who want to escape the responsibility of making a decision: “I don’t mind. You
decide.” Although actually very much concerned about the outcome of the decision, by insisting they are not

the game player forces the other person to take all responsibility for the consequences of the decision.
E.
Games may indicate a lack of confidence in the other person, an unwillingness to communicate with them
directly. In the most innocent cases, they are played in an attempt at politeness, or genuine concern for the
other's feelings (trying not to hurt them). However, even these well-intentioned games don't always have a
good end. They can make it impossible for an atmosphere of trust to be created.
F.
At their worst, games are a way for an individual to retain power in a relationship, because their own personal
feelings are not revealed. The person who uses games to their own advantage needs to win a game in order to
have a sense of self-esteem by harming someone else's self-confidence. Manipulators range from Dictator
(who always has to be in charge) to Nice Guy (who exaggerates care and love for others, in order to get what
he or she wants), to Protector (who is over- supportive or over-protective)
G.
Some game players have so many psychological needs that fulfilling their desires overshadows everything
else in a relationship. For example, a person who needs to be the center of attention may play games in which
they consistently take the role of someone who needs help, someone who is dependent. Sometimes people
fall into games in a relationship because of the roles that they think they should be playing. A young couple
that accepts the traditional roles for men and women may assume that the husband needs to defend his wife
against criticism by his family, or that he will automatically make the decisions about minor repairs on her
car, even though in both cases the wife is perfectly capable of looking after herself. Their exchange will fall

into a kind of game, because they have restricted themselves by their concept of the roles that they should
play.
