England adopted the Protestant religion during the reign of King Henry VIII , approximately around 1530s. Prior
to this, England had followed the Roman Catholic Church. How did England become protestant?
King Henry VIII was influenced by Martin Luther's idea that the Catholic Church was a fake.
Most of the Englishmen rebelled against The Catholic Church when Rome asked them to pay higher taxes
to the Church.
As Henry VIII did not like the amount of money which was spent in the monasteries, he decided that the
banks should take care of the Church money which caused a rupture with the Catholic Church.
 When the Pope refused to give Henry permission to divorce his first wife, Catherine, of the ruling house
of Spain, in order to marry Anne Boleyn, Henry put through Parliament a number of bills that severed
relation with The Catholic Church and set him up as the head of the Anglican Church of England.
As religion was one of the issues that threatened to put an end to domestic peace, King Henry, under
strong pressure of his subjects, founded the Anglican Church.

expensive.

Why did legislation become much more worried about American interests rather than the British ones?
Because the American colony was much richer and more developed than the mother country.
Because the British governors, who were ruling the American colonies, were very efficient ones.
 Because the Americans could not stand the divergencies between their interests and the British ones , so
assemblies took over the functions of the governors.
Because the Americans were mainly concerned with the Indian's interests.
Because the French, who lived in the original thirteen colonies, had made a deal with England, which was
not interesting for the American people.

Read the alternatives and choose the one that is correct in relation to the epic Beowulf:
In the battle against Grendel, Beowulf is able to win the fight by ripping Grendel's arm with a knife.
 Since it was the longest piece of literature to come down to us, it was regarded as the best chivalry
poem to exemplify that period of time.
It was written by the monks who were interested in developing the pagan beliefs and vanishing the
Christian ones.
 Pagan elements as well as Christian ones can be found in the poem. Beowulf is seen as a superhero who
came to the country to try to save the people in danger from the ruling of Grendel.
The characters in the poem are all people of noble birth, who came from France to try to defeat Grendel
(the monster) who had been ruling the country for a few months.

What was the importance of the Printing Press for literature?
Resposta: Difundir a língua Inglesa publicando obras em Inglês; Tradução de várias obras para o Inglês;
Gabarito: The student should mention that since books became less expensive, and since many different titles
were printed, for the first time it became worth while for the average man to learn to read. Thus to a great
extent the invention of printing brought England to the close of the Middle Ages and ushered in the Renaissance.

Comment on the importance of the American Civil War.
Resposta: A escravidão foi abolida; O norte (industrializado) passou a gerar/ produzir mais riquezas em
contrapartida com o sul (derrotado) que dependendia dos escravos em suas lavouras entrou em crise.
Gabarito: The student is expected to mention that the Civil War is the defining event in American history. No
previous American war came anywhere close to it in scale or in the casualties it caused. Its social and political
consequences were vast. It preserved the Union, led to slavery's abolition, and dramatically altered the
relationship between the states and the federal government.
