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 still the Finns’ most important summer cerebration. They gather together around the bonfire to make dance, play and be with family and friends themselves. In some areas Midsummer poles decorated with flowers garlands and 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. 0. being 00. √ 1………. 2………. 3………. 4………. 5………. 6………. 7……… 8……… 9……… 10……… PART C: READING (6 points) VII.

Read and choose the best answer for each question (2 points) 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. 3 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) 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 form 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 be best replace by A. Source B. opposite C. form D. reason 4. The word both 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 phrases 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 D. give an example of a Freud 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 4 8.
