VI There are 10 mistakes in the following passage Find and correct them (1 point)

In countries where two or more languages are spoken, language is frequently a political and

highly emotive issue Although Canada is officially bilingual, the French – speaking province of Quebec introduced the law in 1976 which, in other measures, banned languages rather than

French on commercial signs and restricted admissions to English speaking schools In 1988,

the supreme court of Canada rules that some in sections of this law were illegal No sooner had they done so than thousands of French speakers took to the street protest Under the regime of General Franco, a Basque language spoken by about 600,000 people in Spain was forbidden

So strict was this ban that people using Basque in public could be imprisoned

Lingual suppression still goes on, but on the whole, governments today are more tolerable of

their minority languages Nowhere has this reverse of attitudes been more pronounced than in Wales Until the twentieth century, Welsh was all along illegal, and its usage was forbidden in

schools and at many places of work Only a long campaign of protests and vandalism by Welsh speakers in the 1960s did the British government allow Welsh to become an official language

X Read and choose the best answer for the question (2 points)

Biographies of Mohammed are both numerous and unreliable Non was written in his lifetime,

and all are plagued by legends and embellishments The best known ones are, based on the

Hadiths, or “traditions”, which are dubious historical value The Koran may be the only

trustworthy account of the major event of his life

Mohammed, “the praised One”, founder and prophet of Islam, was born in Mecca in the years

570 He became an orphan at the age of six and was taken into the care of his uncle,

Abu-Talib The tribe of Fihr, to which Mohammed’s family belonged, was then on the rise (1)They

had become the keepers and guardians of the Kaaba in Mecca, a site of pre-Islamic Arab

worship (and now the holiest place in Islam) Their preeminence made it easier for Mohammed

to accomplish his later religious and political conquest (2)

(3) Mohammed’s early life was spent as a shepherd and caravan attendant He is thought to

have been quiet man, much given to fasting and prayer At the age 25 he married a rich, older widow, Khadeejah.(4) The frequent commercial journey he made after his marriage allowed him

to learn the rudiments of Judaism and Christianity

When Mohammed was forty years old, he received what he believed to be a call from the Angel Gabriel, inaugurating his career as a phrophet of Allah and the apostle of Arabia His first

converts included his wife and daughter, his adopted son Ali, and his slave Zayd Mohammed’s attacks on traditional Arab belief provoked ourage and persecution in Mecca, which drove him

to the city of Medina in 622 There he was welcomed as God’s prophet, and found a growing

number of supporters With their help he conquered several Arab, Jewish and Christian tribes,

of marched triumphantly back to Mecca in 630, destroyed the idols, and united all the tribes

under one religion He made his last pilgrimage to Mecca with 40,000 followers in 632 and died soon afterward of a fever at the age of 63

After Mohammed’s death, his successors, the caliphs, aspired to make Islam a world religion

through the conquest of foreign lands In less than a century they succeeded in taking

Palestine, Syria, Mesopotania, Egypt, North Africa, and southern Spain In 732 the Muslim

armies were at last defeated at Tours, where their western conquests ended But they went on

to conquer Oersia, Afghanistan, and part of India When the Mongols and Turks conquered the Muslims in the thirteenth century, they adopted Islam as their own religion

The succession of the first three caliphs was the source of a schism within the faith that persists today The Sunni, or Orthodox, supported the legitimacy of Abu Bakr, Omar, and Uthman; the

Shiah, or Schismatics, upheld the divine right of Mohammed’s son Ali to be his father’s

successor

Midsummer, the celebration of the turning of the sun, has been being the highlight

of the northern summer for centuries- an event full of symbolism, customs, magic

and superstitions In Finland, Midsummer night is so short

as that evening duck flows into morning dawn almost unnoticed Even in

southern Finland, midnight is the best described as strong twilight

Midsummer night was, most of all, the cerebration of greenery and fruit Nature is

in a full bloom then and the day is never-ending It was

customary throughout Finland to bring branches and greenery to indoors on

Midsummer Eve Houses were so thoroughly cleaned and decorated with

birch branches and flower garlands This ‘indoor forest’ was complete when

leaves on the scrubbed floor gave out a fresh forest aroma Midsummer is

the bonfire to make dance, play and be with family and friends

leaves are erected for the festivities Although some of the old ceremonies are

now performed only for fun, Midsummer night, as bathed in the strange white light

of the North, is still mysterious

Sigmund Fred 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 natural 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 to 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, mechanism, 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 source 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 structure 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)
