“During the 1970s, the so-called audiolingual method, based on behaviorist and structuralist assumptions, was still considered the only scientific way of teaching a foreign language. Its emphasis on the oral skills and on the exhaustive repetition of structural exercises seemed to work well in the contexts of private language institutes. Those contexts were characterized by the gathering of small numbers of highly motivated students per class, a weekly time-table superior in the number of hours to the one adopted in regular schools, and plenty of audiovisual resources. Questionable in itself, both because of its results (which in time were revealed to be less efficient than believed, especially in terms of fluency) and its theoretical assumptions, the method ended up being adopted by regular schools due to its positive reputation at the time. The failure of the methodology in this context would soon become evident, generating extreme frustration both amongst teachers and students.

From the 1980s on, with the spread of ideas connected to the so-called communicative approach and the growth of English for Specific Purposes (ESP), the community of researchers and teachers interested in the context of regular schools started reviewing the assumptions and logic of English Language Teaching(ELT). Recognizing that each and every school discipline needs to justify its presence in the curriculum socially and educationally, this movement identified the skill of reading as the most relevant one for the students attending the majority of Brazilian regular schools. This understanding was achieved by considering not only the possibility of real use outside school, but also the role this approach could play in the achievement of other educational goals, such as the improvement of student's reading abilities in Portuguese as a mother tongue (see MOITA LOPES, 1996). This movement reached its climax with the publication of the Brazilian National Curricular Parameters (PCN) for the teaching of foreign languages at basic education level by the end of the 1990s. The document recommended the focus on the teaching of reading within a view of language as discourse. However, it did not close the door on the teaching of any other skill, as long as the context made it possible and relevant.
It is important at this point to clarify a few things about the emergence of this educational policy. First of all, it was not formulated apart from the community of teachers and researchers and then imposed upon them. On the contrary, great names in Brazilian Applied Linguistics, such as Luiz Paulo da Moita Lopes and Maria AntonietaCelani among others, were involved in the formulation of the Parameters. Even more important than that, a lot of teachers, individually or collectively, with or without supervision, were already trying the focus on reading as an alternative to the failure of previous practices before the Parameters were elaborated. Two well-known examples are those from Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo during the late 1980s and early 1990s. In São Paulo, The Catholic University (PUC-SP) became a national center for foreign language teacher education, through the development of a Brazilian ESP project focusing on reading (CELANI, 2005). In Rio de Janeiro, a discussion conducted by the city educational authorities and the teachers in public schools (concerning the contents and methodology of each school discipline), during the administrations of Saturnino Braga and Marcelo Alencar, led to the proposition that the focus on reading for foreign language teaching reflected the will of most teachers who participated in the discussion.

Regarding textual communication, one of the key elements is textual organization, a method of arranging ideas in a logical manner, in order to guide the reader through the information being presented in an understandable way. Textual organization can be presented through a few different categories, such as cohesion, coherence, reference, substitution and ellipsis. Taking into account the aforementioned categories, read the following statements:

I.A text is considered cohesive when the elements of the text are tied together and are considered meaningful to the reader.
II.Coherence refers to the adequate choice of vocabulary iin a text.
III.Reference involves the omission of an item where that item is replaced by nothing.
IV.Substitution is the replacing of an item by another item.
V.Ellipsis can be found in the sentence "John ate two slices of cake, and I ate three."

The Base Nacional Comum Curricular document (BNCC) currently in force indicates 5 axes that guide the teaching-learning process of English in the final years of elementary school. Based on the axes defined by the BNCC document, read the following statements and then select the correct alternative:

I.With regard to the Writing axis, the BNCC recommends text production practices that involve movements that are sometimes collective, sometimes individual, of planning-production-revision, in which decisions are made and evaluated about the ways of communicating what is desired, keeping in mind aspects such as the objective of the text, the support that will allow it social circulation and its possible readers.
II.In the Orality axis, the BNCC prioritizes the use of media resources that bring a more standardized variant of the English language, with the aim of avoiding harm to the student's comprehension and learning, preferring, even, oral use practices without face-to-face contact.
III.The Intercultural Dimension axis points, among other things, to the importance of problematizing the different roles of the English language itself in the world, its values, its reach, and its effects on relations between different people and peoples, both in contemporary society and from a historical perspective.
IV.The Reading axis, in turn, includes, among its guidelines, working with verbal and hybrid genres, mainly enhanced by digital media, as this work makes it possible to experience, in a meaningful and situated way, different modes of reading and different reading goals.
V.The Linguistic Knowledge axis prioritizes the study of the correct form of the English Language as indicated in grammars, which is the appropriate norm established by language scholars, who are the most specialized professionals to indicate how one should speak. Furthermore, this axis recommends studying the language in isolation, to avoid comparisons with the Portuguese Language, for example.

The BNCC document (Base Nacional Comum Curricular), implemented in 2017 for the Elementary Education in Brazil, establishes 5 (five) organizing axes that guide the teaching of the English Language component. Considering what the aforementioned document says about these axes, read the statements below, and assign T (True) or F (False) to each statement.

(__)In the Orality axis, the BNCC prioritizes the use of media resources that bring a more standardized variant of the English language, with the aim of avoiding harm to the student's comprehension and learning, prioritizing oral practices without face-to-face contact, in order to avoid exposing students to an accent or slang that might hinder the learning process of a correct variant of English.
(__)With regard to the Writing axis, the BNCC recommends text production practices that involve movements that are sometimes collective, sometimes individual, of planning-production-revision, in which decisions are made and evaluated about the ways of communicating what is desired, keeping in mind aspects such as the objective of the text, the support that will allow its social circulation and its possible readers.
(__)The Intercultural Dimension axis points, among other things, to the importance of problematizing the different roles of the English language itself in the world, its values, its reach, and its effects on relations between different people and peoples, both in contemporary society and from a historical perspective.
(__)The Linguistic Knowledge axis prioritizes the study of the correct form of the English Language as indicated in grammars, which is the appropriate norm established by language scholars, who are the most specialized professionals to indicate how one should speak. Furthermore, this axis recommends studying the language in isolation, to avoid comparisons with the Portuguese Language, for example, or any other languages the student knows other than English.
(__)The Reading axis, in turn, includes, among its guidelines, working with verbal and hybrid genres, mainly enhanced by digital media, as this work makes it possible to experience, in a meaningful and situated way, different modes of reading and different reading goals.

Regarding the Content and Language Integrated Learning approach (CLIL), read the statements below:

I.It is an approach in which a subject and a language are taught simultaneously.
II.In this approach, it is important to learn the language detached from a specific context, so that the student is able to speak the new language whenever or wherever they need to do so.
III.With this approach, the student does not dedicate time to simply learning a language, such as a traditional foreign language class, the focus is on the subject matter at hand being taught in the target language.
IV.This approach has the advantage of potentially increasing motivation, because the student is learning about a subject he is interested in, so they are likely to pay attention because they truly want to learn about the subject.
V.This approach is considered successful if a student manages to memorize a list of words or full sentences he can use while speaking to a foreign person. After reading these statements, select the correct alternative:

Based on the theoretical discussion of Interlanguage (IL) presented, evaluate the statements below:

I. Interlanguage is viewed as an independent linguistic system that develops gradually between the learner’s L1 and the target language (TL), reflecting a continuum rather than a direct transfer from either language.
II. Fossilization refers to temporary, context-dependent errors that tend to disappear as learners receive more input, and therefore does not represent a permanent stage in IL development.
III. According to Selinker, IL forms arise from latent psychological structures (LPS) and may include influences such as language transfer, overgeneralization, strategies of learning, and strategies of communication.
IV. Variability in IL can manifest systematically or non-systematically, depending on linguistic, situational, or performance-related factors, meaning IL production is not always uniform.

Mark the alternative that indicates the correct combination of statements.

A concepção de ensino-aprendizagem de Língua Estrangeira como um processo meramente reprodutivo, onde o aluno memoriza regras gramaticais e vocabulário isolados para aplicá-los em exercícios descontextualizados, é a mais coerente com a abordagem direta, que se preocupa principalmente com a precisão formal. Tal concepção, ao desconsiderar a dimensão significativa e comunicativa da linguagem, prepara adequadamente o estudante para exames de proficiência que focam na correção sintática e morfológica.
