2041Q485795 | Inglês, Interpretação de Texto

Questions 36 to 42 relate to teaching skills and abilities: In her book “Teaching Community” (2003), bell hooks claims that educators must work “so that the classroom is not a site where domination (on the basis of race, class, gender, nationality, sexual preference, religion) is perpetuated” and that it should be “a place that is life-sustaining and mind-expanding, a place of liberating mutuality where teacher and students together work in partnership”. This is in agreement with the Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (PCN) because it promotes the classroom as:

The complex linguistic universe of

Game of Thrones
1.Game of Thrones has garnered 38 Emmy
2.awards for its portrayal of a world of sex,
3.violence and politics so real that some viewers
4.could imagine moving there. Part of that detail
5.has been the creation of the richest linguistic
6.universe since J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle Earth.
7.In the field of language-creation for fictional
8.worlds, there is Tolkien, and there is everybody
9.else. But David Peterson, the language-smith
10.of Game of Thrones , comes a close second for
11.the amount of thought put into its two
12.languages, Dothraki and Valyrian. The interest
13.in these tongues is such that a textbook for
14.learning Dothraki has been published, while
15.Duolingo, a popular online language-learning
16.platform, now offers a course in High Valyrian.
17.Inspired by fictional languages such as those
18.in the Star Wars films and with a master’s
19.degree in linguistics, Peterson made Dothraki
20.and Valyrian as rich and realistic as possible.
21.Creating words is the easy part; anyone can
22.string together nonsense syllables. But
23.Peterson, like Tolkien, took the trouble to give
24his words etymologies and cousins, so that
25.the word for “feud” is related to the words
26.“blood” and “fight”. To make the languages
27.pronounceable but clearly foreign, he put
28.non-English sounds in high-frequency words
29.(like khaleesi , or queen), put the stress in
30.typically non-English places, and had words
31.begin with combinations of sounds that are
32.impossible in English, like hr .
33.Armed with a knowledge of common linguistic
34.sound changes, he gives his languages the
35kinds of irregularities and disorder that arise in
36.the real world: High Valyrian’s obar
37(“curve”) becomes Astapori Valyrian’s uvor .
38.Words’ meanings—as in real life—drift, too,
39.giving the system more realistic messiness.
40.Languages also play a prominent role in the
41.storyline. Dothraki is the guttural language of
42.a horse-borne warrior nation, but high-born
43.Daenerys Targaryen does not look down on it;
44.methodically learning it is key to her rise.
45.Tyrion Lannister is left to administer the city
46.of Mereen despite his ropy command of
47.Valyrian, leading to some comic moments.
48.And a prophecy of a future hero acquires new
49.meaning when an interpreter explains that the
50.word in question is ambiguous in Valyrian—it
51.could be “prince” or “princess”.
52.It might seem odd that a highly sexist society
53.like the one of Game of Thrones would have
54.languages where sex roles were not clearly
55.marked, but languages are not always perfect
56.vehicles for a culture. Random change can
57.leave them with too many words for one
58.concept, and not enough for another. In this
59.way, the flawed nature of language reflects
60.the foibles of flawed humans and the
61.imperfect worlds they strive to create.

           Rankine notes that adhesion is useful in helping ground stand up in temporary work but plays no part in his design, which is consistent with Coulomb s law. Adhesive or cemented strength may arise as small creep strains occur and as bonds develop in undisturbed sedimentary soils, but any such bonds are, in Rankine s view, destroyed by weathering, and in Coulomb s view destroyed by remoulding. These two founders of soil mechanics are in agreement.

Violence Prevention Among Young People in Brazil

Crime and violence have increased dramatically in Brazil in recent decades, particularly in large urban areas, leading to more intense public debate on causes and solutions. The right to life is the most fundamental of all rights. Having security means living without fearing the risk of violation of ones life, liberty, physical integrity or property. Security means not only to be free from actual risks, but also to be able to enjoy the feeling of security. In this respect, human rights are systematically undermined by violence and insecurity. UNESCO expects to play a primary role in supporting actions of social inclusion to help in the prevention of violence, especially among young people. The attributes and resources to be found in the heart of the Organizations different areas will be grouped around this objective. Violence is seen as a violation of fundamental human rights, as a threat to the respect for the principles of liberty and equality. An approach focused on the access to quality education, to decent jobs, to cultural, sports and leisure activities, to digital inclusion and the protection and promotion of human rights and of the environment will be implemented as a response to the challenge of preventing violence among youths. Such approach should also help in creating real opportunities for young people to improve their life conditions and develop their citizenship.

TEXTO I
A Free World-class Education for Anyone Anywhere
The Khan Academy is an organization on a mission. We’re a not-for-profit with the goal of changing education for the better by providing a free world-class education to anyone anywhere. All of the site’s resources are available to anyone. The Khan Academy’s materials and resources are available to you completely free of charge.

TEXTO II
I didn’t have a problem with Khan Academy site until very recently. For me, the problem is the way Khan Academy is being promoted. The way the media sees it as “revolutionizing education”. The way people with power and money view education as simply “sit-and-get”. If your philosophy of education is “sit-and-get”, i.e., teaching is telling and learning is listening, then Khan Academy is way more efficient than classroom lecturing. Khan Academy does it better. But TRUE progressive educators, TRUE education visionaries and revolutionaries don’t want to do these things better. We want to DO BETTER THINGS.

Our (Im)perfect bOdIes
Since I write a lot about positive body image, you’d think that I am well over the idea that weight
should be something that I allow to define my life. Yet, the vestiges of my past life as a woman
obsessed with weight still linger. A good example is vacation pictures. If I show you pictures of all
the places I have been in my Iife, I can give you minute details about the place itself, the food, the
5 sights and the weather. I can also tell you something else simply by looking at those pictures: the
exact number on the scale I was at that particular time in my life.
Sometimes my past catches up with me. I like to think of myself as a recovering weight-a-holic.
The fear of being overweight is a constant one of despair at not being personally successful in
controlling your own body. What good is being in control of finances, major companies and
10 businesses if you’re not in control of your body?! Silly idea, right? And yet that is exactly the
unconscious thought many intelligent women have.
Feeling satisfied with your appearance makes a tremendous amount of difference in how you
present yourself to the world. Some women live their entire lives on their perception of their
physical selves. But I’ve been there, done that. The hell with that idea! Personally, I became tired
15 of living my Iife this way.
My friend is an art historian who specializes in the Renaissance period. Talking with him recently gave
me a perspective on body image. As we walked through the permanent exhibit of Renaissance
Art in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, he pointed out the paintings done of women.
The women came in all sizes, all shapes. Some were curvier than others, but all were beautiful.
20 Some had what we refer to as love handles; some had soft, fuller stomachs that had never suffered
through crunches in a gym. Though I had seen them many times, it was actually refreshing to view
them in a new light.
We are led to believe our self-worth must be a reflection of our looks. So, in essence, if we don’t
believe we look good, we assume we have no worth! Yet, self-worth should have nothing to do
25 with looks and everything to do with an innate feeling that you really are worth it. You are worth
going after your dreams, you are worth being in a good relationship, you are worth living a life that
fulfills and nourishes you, and you are certainly worthy of being a successful woman.
There is a quote attributed to Michelangelo that I’ve always admired. When a friend complimented
him on the glorious Sistine Chapel, the great artist, referring to his art in the feminine form, was
said to have replied: “She is worthy of admiration simply because she exists; perfection and
imperfection together”.

1 Since 1914 the structure of the world has changed.
Compared to the present struggle between West and East,
the rivalries of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries sink
4 into insignificance. Today we are faced, not with a clash of
interests, but with a fight between the desire on the one hand
to defend individual liberties and the resolve on the other
7 hand to impose a mass religion. In the process the old
standards, conventions and methods of international
negotiation have been discredited. Had it not been for the
10 invention of the atomic bomb, we should already have been
subjected to a third world war.
Members of the Communist bloc today are
13 convinced that sooner or later they will acquire world
dominion and will succeed in imposing their faith and their
authority over the whole earth. They strain towards this
16 objective with religious intensity and are prepared to devote
to its achievement their lives, their comfort and their
prospects of happiness. Anything that furthers their purpose
19 is “right”; anything that obstructs it is “wrong”;
conventional morality, even the creation of confidence, has
no part in this scheme of things. Truth itself has lost its
22 significance. Compared to the shining truth of their gospel,
all minor forms of veracity are merely bourgeois inhibitions.
The old diplomacy was based upon the creation of
25 confidence, the acquisition of credit. The modern diplomat
must realize that he can no longer rely on the old system of
trust; he must accept the fact that his antagonists will not
28 hesitate to falsify facts and that they feel no shame if their
duplicity be exposed. The old currency has been withdrawn
from circulation; we are dealing in a new coinage.
31 This transformation of values has been aided by a new
or “democratic” conception of international relations. In the
old days the conduct of foreign affairs was entrusted to a
34 small international élite who shared the same sort of
background and who desired to preserve the same sort of
world. Today the masses are expected to take an interest in
37 foreign affairs, to know the details of current controversies,
to come to their own conclusions, and to render these
conclusions effective through press and parliament. At the
40 same time, however, current issues have been rendered
complex and interconnected; it is not possible to state issues,
such as the Common Market, in short and simple terms.
43 Thus, whereas the man in the street is expected to have an
opinion on international problems, the very complexity of
these problems has rendered it difficult to provide him with
46 the information on which to base his judgment.
Nicolson, H. (1963) (3rd edition) Diplomacy.
Oxford: OUP, with adaptations.
With regard to lexical understanding, check the following item as right (C) or wrong (E). In the fragment “They strain towards this objective” (lines 15 and 16), the underlined word is synonymous with “move”.
