Text 05 - Syllabus - See an explanation of the term ‘Syllabus’.
A syllabus is a document that describes what the contents of a language course will be and the order in which
they will be taught. The content of a syllabus normally reflects certain beliefs about language and language
learning.
Example
A syllabus might be designed around the order in which grammatical items are introduced. Starting with
'present simple' then 'past simple', then 'present perfect' etc.
In the classroom
There are many different types of syllabus (although often in language classrooms the syllabus from the course
book is the only document). Syllabus types include grammatical, lexical and functional, which focus on the
building blocks of language, and task-based and learner-centred, which focus on processes of communication
and learning.

In an effort to attract younger Hispanic voters, campaigns
are turning to Spanglish
¹ Mayra Alejandra Rodriguez is used to seamlessly toggling
between Spanish and English in conversation. If she doesn’t
know the Spanish version of a word, she’ll use the English,
and vice versa. The mishmash, known as Spanglish, comes
naturally. Those around her understand her, at least most of
the time.
² The Silver Spring, Md., resident is the kind of young
Hispanic voter attracting increasing attention from political
operatives who advocate that campaigns use the blended
language in advertising and other outreach as the 2024
election cycle accelerates.
³ The language — a portmanteau of English and Spanish that
blends words, grammar and dialects from both tongues — is
growing in popularity in the United States as the country’s
Hispanic population grows. Currently, 19 percent of the U.S.
population identifies as Hispanic, a new high according to the
Pew Research Center, which also found that 63 percent of
Hispanics in the United States speak Spanglish at least
sometimes in their day-to-day life. Forty percent say they
speak it often.
4 Operatives who are urging campaigns to reach young
voters in Spanglish argue that its use not only reflects the
nation’s changing demographics, but is also a way to meet
voters with a lingo that feels more familiar and approachable.

Examine the following statements about ‘Text 1’:
I. In: ‘Those around her understand her, at least most of the time.’, the repetition of her is necessary, since ‘those around her’ occupies the place of the subject in the sentence, while the other ‘her’ is the indirect object.
II. In: ‘The Silver Spring, Md., resident is the kind of young Hispanic voter attracting increasing attention from political operatives.’, the ‘Md.’ inserted between The Silver Spring and resident breaks syntax order by separating its nominal group.

TEXTO IV
From Rockets to Ball Bearings, Pentagon Struggles to Feed War Machine: The flow of arms to Ukraine has exposed a worrisome lack of production capacity in the United States that has its roots in the end of the Cold War. By Eric Lipton
March 24, 2023,
Disponível em: www.nytimes.com
WASHINGTON — The Navy admiral had a blunt message for the military contractors building precision-guided missiles for his warships, submarines and planes at a moment when the United States is dispatching arms to Ukraine and preparing for the possibility of conflict with China.
“Look at me. I am not forgiving the fact you’re not delivering the ordnance we need. OK?” Adm. Daryl Caudle, who is in charge of delivering weapons to most of the Navy’s East Coast-based fleet, warned contractors during an industry gathering in January. “We’re talking about warfighting, national security, and going against a competitor here and a potential adversary that is like nothing we’ve ever seen. And we can’t dillydally around with these deliveries.”
His open frustration reflects a problem that has become worryingly apparent as the Pentagon dispatches its own stocks of weapons to help Ukraine hold off Russia and Washington warily watches for signs that China might provoke a new conflict by invading Taiwan: The United States lacks the capacity to produce the arms that the nation and its allies need at a time of heightened superpower tensions.
Industry consolidation, depleted manufacturing lines and supply chain issues have combined to constrain the production of basic ammunition like artillery shells while also prompting concern about building adequate reserves of more sophisticated weapons including missiles, air defense systems and counter-artillery radar.
The Pentagon, the White House, Congress and military contractors are all taking steps to address the issues.
Procurement budgets are growing. The military is offering suppliers multiyear contracts to encourage companies to invest more in their manufacturing capacity and is dispatching teams to help solve supply bottlenecks. More generally, the Pentagon is abandoning some of the costcutting changes embraced after the end of the Cold War, including corporate-style just-in-time delivery systems and a drive to shrink the industry.
In the sentence "The flow of arms to
Ukraine has exposed a worrisome lack of
production capacity in the United States that
has its roots in the end of the Cold War," what
is the function of the word "that"?

Through practice and experience in an increasingly
wide range of communicative contexts and events, learners
gradually expand their communicative competence, consisting
of grammatical competence, discourse competence,
sociocultural competence and strategic competence. All these
components are interrelated. An increase in one component
interacts with other components to produce a corresponding
increase in overall communicative competence.
Grammatical competence refers to sentence-level
grammatical form, the ability to recognize the lexical,
morphological, syntactic and phonological feature of a
language and to make use of these features to interpret
and form words and whole sentences. One demonstrates
grammatical competence not by stating a rule but by using a
rule in the interpretation, expression or negotiation of meaning.
Discourse competence is concerned not with isolated
words or phrases but with the interconnectedness of a series
of utterances, written words and/or phrases to build a text,
a meaningful whole. Two familiar concepts to talk about
discourse competence are text coherence and cohesion. Text
coherence is the relation of all sentences or utterances in a text
to a single global proposition. Local connections or structural
links between individual sentences provide cohesion.
Sociocultural competence extends well beyond linguistic
forms and is an interdisciplinary field of inquiry having to do with
the social rules of language use.
Sociocultural competence
requires an understanding of the social context where
language is used: the roles of the participants, the information
they share, and the function of the interation. And although we
are far from an adequate description of sociocultural rules of
appropriateness, we use them to communicate successfully in
many different contexts of situation. Sociocultural competence
also includes a willingness to suspend judgement and take
into consideration the possibility of cultural differences in
convention and use. Thus the importance of the term cultural
flexibility or cultural awareness.
The ‘’ideal native speaker,’’ someone who knows a
language perfectly and uses it appropriately in all social
interactions, exists in theory only. None of us knows all there is
to know of English in its many manifestations, both around the
world and in our own backyards. Communicative competence
is always relative. The coping strategies we use in unfamiliar
contexts, with constraints due to imperfect knowledge of
rules or limiting factors in their application such as fatigue or
distraction, are represented as strategic competence. With
practice and experience, we gain in grammatical, discourse,
and socio-cultural competence. The relative importance of
strategic competence thus decreases. However, the effective
use of coping strategies is important for communicative
competence in all contexts and distinguishes highly competent
communicators from those who are less so.

twenty-first century. IN: Marianne Celce-Murcia. Teaching English as a
second or foreign language. Boston, Massachusstes: Heinle&Heinle.

According to the second paragraph, grammatical
competence helps interpretation of words. Thus in the
phrase “whole sentences” (paragraph 2), grammatical
structure helps identify the underlined word as an
adjective; in “a meaningful whole” (paragraph 3), the
underlined word is a noun. Sentence structure allows the
identification of the word “quiet” as a noun in alternative:

I Met My Pen Pal for the First Time in a Country I
Knew Almost Nothing About — and We Fell in Love
(1º§) I'm what you might call a hopeless romantic with
impulsive tendencies. During the height of the pandemic,
I flew to Tbilisi to spend a week with my Russian pen pal,
Anastasia, whom I had known for years, but never met in
person.
(2º§) In a world ravaged by COVID-19, Anastasia kept
me sane. Even from afar, her kind words and charming
smile filled me with joy and affection. Pairing those
emotions with my insatiable wanderlust, I knew I had to
meet her in person. But it was spring 2021, and most of
the world was still shut down. Due to all the restrictions,
finding a country for both an American and a Russian
citizen was virtually impossible.
(3º§) Then, I discovered Georgia, a country I knew
almost nothing about. Provided Anastasia and I received
a negative PCR test result, we could enter without having
to quarantine. We didn't need a visa, either. So, after a
long journey with two layovers and 24 hours in the air, I
met my pen pal in Tbilisi.
(4º§) The Georgian capital was full of surprises. We
strolled along the futuristic Bridge of Peace lit with LEDs.
We climbed the crumbling Narikala Fortress and passed
slanted, Soviet homes. At times modern and at others
medieval, the city's style was strangely addictive.
Anastasia and I walked hand in hand, eager to find all
Tbilisi's secrets.
(5º§) One such secret was the food. From soup
dumplings to nuts dipped in thickened grape juice,
Georgian food was a simple and wholesome pleasure.
Oh, and you haven't lived until you've tried khachapuri, a
soft bread blanketed in cheese, butter, and egg. The
stomach truly is the way to the heart because I was head
over heels.
(6º§) Even so, I say, everything in life is better with a
glass of wine, so I decided to take Anastasia on a day trip
to the Khareba Winery in Kakheti. Together, we tasted
Georgia's traditional varietals and explored the winery's
4.7-mile-long tunnel system. Our wine tasting was as
intimate as it was thirst-quenching.
(7º§) Still a bit tipsy, we headed to Signagi, the City of
Love. One of the locals told me Signagi's presumptuous
title is just for tourism purposes. But the cute, pastel
houses and stunning valley vistas are enough to put
anyone in a romantic mood. As we watched the sun set
over the stone walls of Signagi, love was definitely in the
air.
(8º§) But the pinnacle of our Georgian excursion came
north of Tbilisi, in the mountains of Kazbegi. On a group
trip with Gamarjoba Georgia Tours, we marveled as
majestic, green peaks rose around us. Their rocky faces
were speckled with spring flowers and babbling streams of melted ice. From the slopes of the Gudauri Ski Resort
to the nameless, roadside cliffs, unforgettable views
awaited around every corner.
(9º§) To make the trip even more memorable, the tour
guide got us drunk on homemade chacha, Georgia's
national hard liquor. Then, he decided it was a good idea
to reenact "Dirty Dancing" during a cliffside photo shoot.
After all, nothing brings a couple together like the fear of
falling off a cliff.
(10º§) Thankfully, I did not fall from the mountaintops, but
I did fall for Anastasia. Once we returned to the quaint,
cobbled streets of Tbilisi, I told her I had decided to move
to Russia to be with her. My family questioned me, but
this wasn't another impulsive decision. Georgia's rich
culture and romantic landscapes had set the stage for
our relationship. Tbilisi, it turns out, was the perfect place
for Anastasia and I to start our next adventure.

“After a while you learn the subtle difference
between holding a hand and chaining a soul
And you learn that love doesn’t mean leaning
and company doesn’t mean security.
And you begin to learn that kisses aren’t contracts
and presents aren’t promises
And you begin to accept your defeats
with your head up and your eyes ahead
with the grace of a woman, not the grief of a child
And you learn to build all your roads on today
because tomorrow’s ground is too uncertain for plans
and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.
After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much.
So you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul
instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.
And you learn that you really can endure
that you really are strong
and that you really do have worth
And you learn and you learn
with every goodbye you learn...”
— Veronica Shoffstall
In the phrase "you really do have worth," what is the purpose of "do" in the sentence?
