V. READING COMPREHENSION (10pts)
Read the passages below and choose the best answer to each
question.
Passage 1 (5pts)
Sigmund Freud was not a literary theorist. However, he did
contribute to critical theory through both his theories and his use of art
to show that the application of psychology can extend to the highest
forms of cultures. Freud was always interested in literature, and he
drew some of the best illustrations of his theories from classic poems
and plays.
Freud saw the unconscious as the impetus of both cultural and
psychic activity. Therefore, the same principles operated in both, and
that the same mechanisms – such as displacement and symbolization –
applied. While Freud was not the first to note the importance of the
unconscious mind, he was the first to attempt a coherent theory of its
operation and function. He argued that the unconscious operates
according to universal law, and is crucial to all aspects of mental life
that involve fantasy, or diversion from reality. From this point of view,
it is natural to apply Freudian principles to imaginative literature.
Writers transform individual, unconscious fantasy into universal art – a
kind of formal fantasy halfway between a reality that denies wishes
and a world of imagination in which every wish is granted.
In focusing on the unconscious origins for literature, Freud was in

a sense reviving the traditional idea of divine inspiration. [1]
Philosophers and art theorists have often turned to such a theory of the
imagination to explain multiple meanings, repetition, and any
apparent disorder in art. Similarly, psychoanalysis uses the theory of
the unconscious to explain examples of “disorder’ in consciousness,
such as dreams.
[2] This analogy allowed Freud to suggest that fantasies called art
could be interpreted in the same way as dreams. Writers, as Freud
noted, have always seen great significance in dreams. In his view,


portrayals of dreams in works of literature supported his own theories
about their structures, mechanisms, and interpretation. For example,
the mechanisms of displacement and symbolization obviously
resemble the literary devices of metaphor and symbolism.[3]
Critics of Freud have objected that the non-logical processes of
the unconscious do not resemble the conscious effort that results in
work of literature. Freud would reply that while conscious thought is
necessary to produce works of art, the creative sources of art remain in
the conscious. In this view, conscious activity merely obscures what is
truly important in art. What interested Freud were the deep
unconscious structures literature shares with myth and religion, as well
as with dreams. The apparent individuality of literature was not as
significant as its ultimate universality. [4]
1. Which of the following best states the main idea of the reading?
A. The best way to understand the creation of literature is through
Freud’s theory of psychoanalysis.
B. Freud argued convincingly that both psychic phenomena and
literature may be interpreted with reference to the unconscious.
C. Creating works of literature is very similar to dreaming.

D. Freud’s theories explain why both dreams and literature contain
various forms of disorder.
2. According to the passage, which of the following is true of Freud?
A. He was a literary theorist.
B. He has had an influence on literary theory.
C. He wrote several plays and poems that illustrate his theories.
D. He was the first to discover the unconscious.
3. The word impetus could best be replaced by _____________

B. opposite
C. form
D. reason

D. principles and mechanisms
5. The author uses the phrase formal fantasy in order to

A. describe the nature of literature B. describe the nature of the
unconscious
C. give an example of diversion from reality

interpretation.”

B. [2]
C. [3]
D. [4]
7. According to the passage, displacement in dreams is similar to
______________
A. symbolization
B. metaphor
C. symbolism
D. repression
8. What possible objection to the passage’s main idea does the author
discuss in the last paragraph?
A. Freud emphasized the unconscious, but writing results from
conscious thought.
B. Freud claimed that art is created logically, but it really has
unconscious origins.
C. Writers have never placed much significance on dreams.
D. Freud argued that literature is individual, but it is actually universal.
9. The word their refers to _______________
A. writers
B. works
C. theories
D. dreams
10. Why does the author mention multiple meanings and repetition in
paragraph 3?
A. To emphasize the non-rational nature of art
B. To give
examples of “disorder” in art
C. To show the similarity between art and dreams
D. To give
examples of divine inspiration

Passage 2 (5pts)
Another critical factor that plays a part in susceptibility to colds is
age. A study done by the University of Michigan School of Public
Health revealed particulars that seem to hold true for the general
population. Infants are the most cold-ridden group, averaging more


than six colds in their first year. Boys have more colds than girls up to
age three. After the age of three, girls are more susceptible than boys,
and teenage girls average three colds a year to boys’ two.
The general incidence of colds continues to decline into maturity.
Elderly people who are in good health have as few as one or two colds
annually. One exception is found among people in their twenties,
especially women, who show a rise in cold infections, because people
in this age group are most likely to have young children. Adults who
delay having children until their thirties and forties experience the
same sudden increase in cold infections.
The study also found that economics plays an important role. As
income increases, the frequency at which colds are reported in the
family decreases. Families with the lowest income suffer about a third
more colds than families at the upper end. Lower income generally
forces people to live in more cramped quarters than those typically
occupied by wealthier people, and crowding increases the opportunities
for the cold virus to travel from person to person. Low income may
also adversely influence diet. The degree to which poor nutrition
affects susceptibility to colds is not yet clearly established, but an
inadequate diet is suspected of lowering resistance generally.
1. The paragraph that precedes this passage most probably deals with
___________
A. minor diseases other than colds.

B. the recommended treatment of colds.
C. a factor that affects susceptibility to colds.
D. methods of preventing colds among elderly people.
2. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word
‘particulars’ in the first paragraph ?
A. Minor errors
B. Specific facts
C. Small distinctions
D. Individual
people
3. What does the author claim about the study discussed in the
passage?
A. It contains many inconsistencies.
B. It specializes in children.


C. It contradicts the results of earlier studies in the field.
D. Its results apparently are relevant for the population as a whole.
4. It may be inferred from the passage that which of the following
groups of people is most likely to catch cold?
A. Infant boys
B. Young girls
C. Teenage boys
D. Elderly women paragraph of
the passage
5. There is information in the second which of the following
conclusions?
A. Men are more susceptible to colds than women.
B. Children infect their parents with colds.
C. People who live in a cold climate have more colds than those who

live in a warm one.
D. People who don’t have children are more susceptible to colds than
those who do.
6. The phrase “people in this age group” near the end of paragraph 2
refers to __________
A. infants
B. people in their twenties
C. people in their thirties and forties
D. elderly
people
7. The author’s main purpose in writing the last paragraph of the
passage was to __________
A. explain how cold viruses are transmitted.
B. prove that a poor diet causes colds.
C. discuss the relationship between income and frequency of colds.
D. analyze the distribution of income among the people in the study.
8. The word ‘cramped’ is closest in meaning to ____________
A. cheap
B. crowded
C. depressing
D. simple
9. The families with lowest income suffer _____________
A. a third of the colds that the families with higher income do.
B. fewer colds than the families with higher income.
C. as many colds as the families with higher income.
D. more colds than the families with higher income
10. The author’s tone in this passage could best be described as
___________
A. neutral
B. humorous

C. tentative
D. critical

VI. GUIDED CLOZE TEST (10pts)
Read the following passages and decide which answer best fits each
space.
Passage 1 (5pts)
A CHANGE OF MOOD
Most of us regard our moods as being rather like the weather – it
is something that colours the whole day, comes from somewhere else
and over which we have little (1) __________ . Not that there isn’t a
range of folk remedies for dealing with a bad one: “Just snap out of it.
Talk to a friend – a problem (2) ___________ is a problem halved.
Pamper yourself.”
The problem is, as the latest American research (3) ___________,
all these favourite mood-swinging ploys are very ineffective. In his
new book, Robert Thayer, professor of psychology California
University, (4) __________ forward a new theory about what to do to
change our moods and why. There are a few surprises. For instance,
men, contrary to popular opinion, are actually better at dealing with
their moods than women. Not only that, but the time-honoured female
techniques of (5) __________ it all out to a friend or having a good cry
are often a waste of time.
His approach makes it possible to forecast moods and be much
more precise about controlling them. For instance, we all have a daily
energy rhythm – on (6) ___________, we start low, build up to a (7)
__________ around midday, dip down, pick up a bit in the later

afternoon and then tail off towards the evening. So, because of the (8)


__________ between energy levels and mood, we can predict that an

those times of the day when our energy regularly takes a dip. Knowing
that, you can take it into (10) ___________

Passage 2 (5pts)
Life involves a certain amount of risk, or at least it did. These
days, however, governments seem to have become (1) ___________
with the idea of protecting us from it. As a result, what we actually risk
most is not being allowed to live at all.
For example, take a recent edict which emerged from the British
government’s health and safety department. It would be amusing if it
wasn’t so serious. Circus artistes performing on tightropes or the flying
trapeze are being (2) __________ to wear the type of hard hats more
usually (3) ________ with the construction industry. Under a relatively
new law (4) _________ as the ‘temporary work at heights directive’,
such a hat must be worn for any working activity taking place above
the height of an ‘average stepladder’. Now you might think that sounds
(5) __________ reasonable, but the absurd thing is that the rule is
being (6) __________ to circus performers as well.
The first to be hit by this rule were baffled members of the
Moscow State Circus, who were touring England at the time. Used to

flying through the air without even the (7) __________ of a safety net,
they (8) _____________ that trapeze artistes often break arms and legs,
but (9) ___________ heads. This simple fact was apparently (10)


___________ on the bureaucrats at the government department,

The principal difference between urban growth in Europe and in
the North American colonies was the slow (1) ___________ of cities in

the former and their rapid growth in the latter. In Europe they grew
over a period of centuries from town economies to their present urban
structure. In North America, they started as (2) ___________
communities and developed to mature urbanism in little more than a
century.
In the early (3) ____________ days in North America, small cities
sprang up along the Atlantic Coastline, mostly in what are now New
England and the Middle Atlantic states in the United States and in the
lower Saint Lawrence valley in Canada. This was natural because these
areas were nearest England and France, particularly England, from
which most capital goods (assets such as equipment) and many
consumer goods were imported.
Merchandising (4) _____________ were, accordingly, (5)

Philadelphia, New York, Montreal, and other cities flourished, and as
the colonies grew, these cities increased in importance.
This was less true in the colonial South, where life centered
around large farms, known as (7) ____________, rather than around
towns, as was the case in the areas further north along the Atlantic
coastline. The local (8) ___________ and the economic (9)
___________ of the plantations were antagonistic to the development
of the towns. The plantations maintained their independence because
they were located on navigable streams and each had a wharf (10)
___________ to the small shipping of that day. In fact, one of the
strongest factors in the selection of plantation land was the desire to
have it front on a water highway.

III. ERROR IDENTIFICATION. (10pts)
The passage below contains 10 mistakes. Identify the mistakes
and correct them. The first one has been done as an example.
The ability to deceive other is thought by some psychologists to
be a character that has been genetically selected through human
evolution. Comparison have been made with animal deception, such as
camouflage and mimicry. For hundreds of generations, it is arguing, the
ability to make others believe insincere remarks and promises have

conferred advantages in struggles to control resources and win mating
partners. The less cunning have, quite simply, produced fewer
offspring, and a talent for creating false impressions has dominated the
human gene pool.
What the merits or shortcomings of this line of thinking, they are
undoubtedly many occasions in everyday sociable encounters when
people, for the reason or another, want to avoid expressing their true
feelings. The ability to do these varies and success tends to breed
success. Those which lie effectively will tend to lie more often,
perfecting their social skills in a process. Those who fail are deterred
from future attempts and get few practice. With flying, as with
everything else, practice makes perfect.
