<b>V. READING COMPREHENSION (10pts)</b>


<b>Read the passages below and choose the best answer to each question.</b>


<b>Passage 1 (5pts)</b>


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 <b>impetus</b> of both cultural and psychic activity. Therefore, the


same principles operated in <b>both</b>, 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 <b>formal fantasy</b> 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 <b>multiple meanings, repetition</b>, 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 <b>their </b>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.


</div>
<span class='text_page_counter'>(5)</span><div class='page_container' data-page=5>

C. He wrote several plays and poems that illustrate his theories.
D. He was the first to discover the unconscious.


3. The word <b>impetus</b> could best be replaced by _____________



A. source B. opposite C. form D. reason


4. The word <b>both </b>refers to _____________


A. displacement and symbolization


B. repression and the economy of psychic expenditure
C. cultural and psychic phenomena


D. principles and mechanisms


5. The author uses the phrase <b>formal fantasy</b> in order to ______________


A. describe the nature of literature B. describe the nature of the unconscious


C. give an example of diversion from reality D. give an example of a Freudian principle


6. Which is the best place for the following sentence?


“And like dreams, literary works can have more than one interpretation.”


A. [1] 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 <b>their</b> refers to _______________


A. writers B. works C. theories D. dreams


10. Why does the author mention <b>multiple meanings</b> and <b>repetition </b>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


<b>Passage 2 (5pts)</b>


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 <b>particulars </b>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 <b>people in this age group</b> 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 <b>cramped</b>


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.

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.

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.

D. analyze the distribution of income among the people in the study.

A. cheap B. crowded C. depressing D. simple

A. a third of the colds that the families with higher income do.
B. fewer colds than the families with higher income.

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.”


</div>
<span class='text_page_counter'>(7)</span><div class='page_container' data-page=7>

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 (9)
__________ in tension will produce a more gloomy outlook at those times of the day when our energy
regularly takes a dip. Knowing that, you can take it into (10) ___________


1. A. selection B. ability C. decision D. control


2. A. distributed B. shared C. divided D. spread



3. A. reveals B. informs C. exposes D. discovers

<b>Passage 2 (5pts)</b>


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

The principal difference between urban growth in Europe and in the North American colonies was

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.

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.

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.
