READ THE TEXT BELOW: 
Material culture, tools, weapons, utensils, machines, ornaments, art, buildings, monuments, written 
records, religious images, clothing, and any other ponderable objects produced or used by humans. If all 
the human beings in the world ceased to exist, nonmaterial aspects of culture would cease to exist along 
with them. 
However, examples of material culture would still be present until they disintegrated. (Source:

READ THE TEXT BELOW: 
The Celts are important in British history because they are the ancestors of many of the people in Highland 
Scotland, Wales, Ireland, and Cornwall today... Celtic languages, which have been continuously used in 
some areas since that time, are still spoken. The British today are often described as Anglo-Saxon. It 
would be better to call them Anglo-Celtic. (Source: McDOWALL, David. An Illustrated History of Britain. 
London: Longman, 1989, p. 7) 
Historically speaking, two distinct periods can be traced in Celtic lifespan: the earliest days of the Celtic 
culture, called the HALLSTATT ERA (700-450 B.C.), and a subsequent period called LA TÈNE (450 B.C. TO 
50 A.D.). The Hallstatt Era was named after a village in a European country, where many Celtic artifacts 
have been unearthed. Which country is it? 
Germany 
Switzerland 
Austria 
England 
France

The contexts in which both The Song of the Nibelungs and Icelandic Saga are written differ a lot, especially 
in terms of societal organizations. The use of a German concept Triuwe may attest to this. Why is that? 
 The concept arises from non-feudal societies, being what held the society together, as in the case of the 
German society. 
 The concept arises from pagan societies, being what held the society together, as in the case of the 
Icelandic society.

 Questão (Ref.: 202007690008) 
Reread an extract retrieved from the prologue of Henry IV and choose the correct explanation concerning 
its linguistic features. "O, pardon: since a crooked figure may/ Attest in little place a million;/ And let us, 
ciphers to this great account,/ On your imaginary forces work./ Suppose within the girdle of these walls/ 
Are now confined two mighty monarchies,/ Whose high upreared and abutting fronts/ The perilous narrow 
ocean parts asunder." (1.1.15-22) 
The extract focuses mainly on the characters involved in the entanglement of events of the narrative. 
In such lines, Rumor uses the imperative form to converse with the audience and instigate its 
imagination as witness of the events in the face of the lack of scenery elements. 
The detailed description of the setting is a historical evidence of the abundance of scenic objects on 
stage. 
This monologue is mainly narrated in the past, for it consists of an account of historical events. 
Because such prologue introduces a tragedy, the character sticks to a serious tone and avoids direct 
references to the audience.
