 1a Questão 
 
Choose the alternative that is incorrect in relation to the time Christianity arrived in Britain: 
 
 
Merchants from all over the empire settled there and soldiers from many countries served there so we 
will never know who first introduced Christianity to England. 
 
At that time England and Wales were ruled by the Romans. 
 Christianty was never accepted by its native population. 
 
The native people were Celts. They were polytheists (they worshiped many gods). The Romans too were 
polytheists and they were willing to allow the Celts to worship their old gods. 
 
The first evidence of Christianity in England is from the late 2nd century AD. Roman Britain was a 
cosmopolitan place.

 2a Questão 
 
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. 
 
It was written by the monks who were interested in developing the pagan beliefs and vanishing the 
Christian ones. 
 
 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. 
 
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. 
 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.
