What does a sustainable smartphone look like?
In a bid to reduce global electronic waste, Fairphone has created a smartphone that owners can repair themselves. What makes its technology so sustainable?
"This is my phone's camera," says Bas van Abel, holding a small, square component aloft. He has just removed it from his smartphone, using a tiny screwdriver.
"There's eight components in total which can be removed and replaced," he says, as he meticulously disassembles his entire smartphone, placing the camera alongside his phone battery, USB port, screen and loudspeaker.
Van Abel is the co-founder of the Dutch social enterprise Fairphone, which claims to have built "the world's most sustainable smartphone". But with a complex product containing rare metals and components from all over the world, just how sustainable can a smartphone be?
Founded in 2013 in Amsterdam, Fairphone makes Android smartphones which can easily be exchanged, customized and repaired by their owners. By enabling and encouraging people to fix their phones, rather than throwing them away as soon as a component breaks, Fairphone hopes to help reduce electronic waste.

Department Store
The first department store was created in Paris, in 1850. It was conceived as a big place with a lot of options in products and brands. They wouldn’t sell just a specific product: there you could find clothes, shoes, jewels, make up and many others things. That concept remained until today. So, if you want to buy many things with good prices, you can choose from one of the thousands in the world.
Every year, on the day after Thanksgiving, most of this stores have a big sale called Black Friday. On this day, it is possible to buy products with big discounts and you also have the option to buy things online. In 2016, more than 154 million people spent USD 3,3 billion dollars shopping only on the internet.

This ancient Greek warship ruled the Mediterranean
Fast, maneuverable, and dangerous, the trireme was
the most feared ship in ancient Greece. With powerful
bronze rams and the ability to turn on a dime, it would leave
enemy ships dead in the water by punching holes in their
sides or smashing their oars. In his Histories, Herodotus
writes how Greek naval dominance owed so much to the
brilliant use of triremes in battle.
In the fifth century B.C., Athenian shipyards had the
capacity for over 300 triremes, the most famous warships of
antiquity. The trireme—a term derived from the Greek
trieres, “three rows of oars”—was the result of the
continuous development of naval technology in the Greek
world. The epic poem Iliad (attributed to Homer, and written
in the eighth century B.C.) mentions ships called triaconters
and penteconters, vessels that were crewed by 30 or 50
men, respectively. Biremes, with two rows of oarsmen, are
recorded on eighth-century B.C. reliefs. At the beginning of
the seventh century B.C., accumulated experience led to
new technical advances, and the much more sophisticated
trireme model appeared.

The social use of language in professional environments has become more diverse and dynamic than
ever. From the polished and informative style found in newspaper articles that captivate readers, to the
clear and concise language of instructional materials guiding us through complex tasks, and the
articulate and persuasive discourse of lectures that leave a lasting impact, the language in the
professional realm varies widely to serve different purposes. Furthermore, as English learners, it's
important to be well-versed in an array of communication styles to meet various needs. Students may
require the ability to comprehend and engage with news articles to stay informed, craft persuasive
advertisements to market products effectively, understand technical manuals for operating machinery,
compose emails for professional correspondence, appreciate the nuances of song lyrics, and much
more.

October 9th 1942
“Today I have nothing but dismal and depressing
news to report. Our many Jewish friends and
acquaintances are being taken away in droves.
The Gestapo is treating them very roughly and
transporting them in cattle cars to Westerbork,
the big camp in Drenthe to which they’re sending
all the Jews. Miep told us about someone who’d
managed to escape from there. It must be terrible
in Westerbork. The people get almost nothing to
eat, much less to drink, as water is available only
one hour a day, and there’s only one toilet and
sink for several thousand people. Men and
women sleep in the same room, and women and
children often have their heads shaved. Escape is
almost impossible; many people look Jewish,
and they’re branded by their shorn heads. If it’s
that bad in Holland, what must it be like in those
faraway and uncivilized places where the
Germans are sending them? We assume that most
of them are being murdered. The English radio
says they’re being gassed. Perhaps that’s the
quickest way to die. I feel terrible. Miep’s
accounts of these horrors are so heartrending…
Fine specimens of humanity, those Germans, and
to think I’m actually one of them! No, that’s not
true, Hitler took away our nationality long ago.
And besides, there are no greater enemies on
earth than the Germans and Jews.”

O texto seguinte servirá de base para responder à questão abaixo:
(1º§) POSTNATAL depression is rife among parents,
affecting more than one in 10 women within a year after
they've given birth. But many mums hesitate before
speaking out about their battles with mental health in
what supposed to be a blissful period for them.
(2º§) Ellie Polly Killah, a YouTuber and mum of two boys
aged six and two, said she'd ummed and ahhed about
sharing her own experience for two years. In a video uploaded to her channel, she gave a raw account of her
postnatal depression and the severe anxiety and
intrusive thoughts it triggered in its aftermath. "I'm not
gonna sugarcoat it, I'm just gonna say it how it is
because it's not a pretty thing to deal with, to go through
so I'm not going to try and make it so," she told viewers.
"This is my story from the beginning till now and how I
learned to live with it - I say live with it not overcome it
because I don't think you ever do," the mum went on.
She hoped the video might help anyone at the precipice
of this process.
(3º§) Ellie said she had no history of mental health
struggles when she gave birth to her first son Leo in 2017
at the age of 27. She was the first of her friends to have a
kid she recalled feeling lonely. And Ellie became aware of
her 'attachment issues' with Leo immediately after he was
born. "People love to tell you that when your baby is born
you have this immediate rush of love when you look at
them," she explained. But Ellie said that isn't the case for
everyone and it wasn't the case for her with her first child.
"Obviously I was amazed when I saw him, sort of
overwhelmed, couldn't believe he was here, but I don't
remember feeling that complete love and awe of him."
(4º§) Ellie struggled to feel bonded to Leo, but thought
there was just 'something really wrong' with her. "I would
cry every day but a lot of the time in secret," she
remembered, and the new mum said she locked herself
in her room to do so whenever someone came round to
visit. "I think I did it secretly because I was embarrassed
or ashamed, or I thought if people knew I was struggling
that they would just think I was this awful mother, or he'd
get taken away from me." "Your brain sends you an all of
these imaginary scenarios."
(5º§) In retrospect, Ellie questioned how she thought this
was normal. Her fiance Clint went back to work when Leo
was two weeks old and he'd often have to travel,
meaning that Ellie was on her own a lot. She
remembered ringing Clint and saying __ her son: "I feel
like I don't like him." She told viewers it was painful to
recall feeling that way, but it made her begin to realise
something wasn't quite right. "This was the first baby for
both of us, so we didn't really recognise post-partum
depression or know what we were really looking for.
(6º§) At eight weeks old, Ellie's bond for her baby 'came
on quite suddenly'. "I remember it hitting me like a wave,
looking at him one day and being like: there it is," Ellie
said.
Intrusive thoughts and OCD
(7º§) But the guilt of not experiencing that early
attachment lead to the mum being 'extremely anxious'
about her son. She explained: "The intense love and
responsibility that I had to this baby lead me to
constantly, constantly [think] he was going to die." Ellie
would have 'hideous, morbid, intrusive thoughts' multiple
times a day, particularly triggered when she was driving
or Leo was in the bath: "It was intense."
(8º§) She started to get panic attacks and physical side
effects from the anxiety she was experiencing, like like a
tight chest, stomach pains, nausea and headaches. "I know now that OCD basically goes hand in had with
severe anxiety," Ellie went on. At her worst, Ellie was
convinced her home would catch fire in the night and
would obsessively plan out an escape route in her head
before sleeping. She also became gripped by the fear
that she would die __ the night and leave her baby on his
own.
(9º§) Ellie asked her mum or fiance text her every
morning in case this happened.The new mum had her
wake-up call when she confessed this fear to her friends
one evening and saw the horror on their faces. She
booked a therapist appointment the next day.
What helped?
(10º§) Ellie said therapy was hugely helpful to her
recovery journey, as was medication. The mum saw
female therapist who specialised in anxiety, who taught
her techniques that Ellie said she used to this day. A
method deal with with her intrusive thoughts was to take
a deep breath when she was taken over by one, soak it
in and then weigh up the evidence it is true vs. the
evidence it isn't. "The one or two minutes it takes for you
to sum up that evidence for and against, you've
completely calmed down," Ellie said.
(11º§) Three years later Ellie said she's realised how
common her experience with postnatal depression is. "I'll
worry about my kids forever, I'll probably always get
these horrible thoughts and ideas, but I know how to deal
with them so I just get on with it. It doesn't control me at
all." She went on: "If you are in a dark place and feel like
you need help, just talk to someone." Then it's best you
get professional help, as these kinds of feelings are
"really hard to master on your own". The mum ended on
a happier note. "And if you had a bad experience and
you're nervous about your second, let me tell you it was a
completely different experience __ me second time
round.

O texto seguinte servirá de base para responder à questão abaixo:
(1º§) POSTNATAL depression is rife among parents,
affecting more than one in 10 women within a year after
they've given birth. But many mums hesitate before
speaking out about their battles with mental health in
what supposed to be a blissful period for them.
(2º§) Ellie Polly Killah, a YouTuber and mum of two boys
aged six and two, said she'd ummed and ahhed about
sharing her own experience for two years. In a video uploaded to her channel, she gave a raw account of her
postnatal depression and the severe anxiety and
intrusive thoughts it triggered in its aftermath. "I'm not
gonna sugarcoat it, I'm just gonna say it how it is
because it's not a pretty thing to deal with, to go through
so I'm not going to try and make it so," she told viewers.
"This is my story from the beginning till now and how I
learned to live with it - I say live with it not overcome it
because I don't think you ever do," the mum went on.
She hoped the video might help anyone at the precipice
of this process.
(3º§) Ellie said she had no history of mental health
struggles when she gave birth to her first son Leo in 2017
at the age of 27. She was the first of her friends to have a
kid she recalled feeling lonely. And Ellie became aware of
her 'attachment issues' with Leo immediately after he was
born. "People love to tell you that when your baby is born
you have this immediate rush of love when you look at
them," she explained. But Ellie said that isn't the case for
everyone and it wasn't the case for her with her first child.
"Obviously I was amazed when I saw him, sort of
overwhelmed, couldn't believe he was here, but I don't
remember feeling that complete love and awe of him."
(4º§) Ellie struggled to feel bonded to Leo, but thought
there was just 'something really wrong' with her. "I would
cry every day but a lot of the time in secret," she
remembered, and the new mum said she locked herself
in her room to do so whenever someone came round to
visit. "I think I did it secretly because I was embarrassed
or ashamed, or I thought if people knew I was struggling
that they would just think I was this awful mother, or he'd
get taken away from me." "Your brain sends you an all of
these imaginary scenarios."
(5º§) In retrospect, Ellie questioned how she thought this
was normal. Her fiance Clint went back to work when Leo
was two weeks old and he'd often have to travel,
meaning that Ellie was on her own a lot. She
remembered ringing Clint and saying __ her son: "I feel
like I don't like him." She told viewers it was painful to
recall feeling that way, but it made her begin to realise
something wasn't quite right. "This was the first baby for
both of us, so we didn't really recognise post-partum
depression or know what we were really looking for.
(6º§) At eight weeks old, Ellie's bond for her baby 'came
on quite suddenly'. "I remember it hitting me like a wave,
looking at him one day and being like: there it is," Ellie
said.
Intrusive thoughts and OCD
(7º§) But the guilt of not experiencing that early
attachment lead to the mum being 'extremely anxious'
about her son. She explained: "The intense love and
responsibility that I had to this baby lead me to
constantly, constantly [think] he was going to die." Ellie
would have 'hideous, morbid, intrusive thoughts' multiple
times a day, particularly triggered when she was driving
or Leo was in the bath: "It was intense."
(8º§) She started to get panic attacks and physical side
effects from the anxiety she was experiencing, like like a
tight chest, stomach pains, nausea and headaches. "I know now that OCD basically goes hand in had with
severe anxiety," Ellie went on. At her worst, Ellie was
convinced her home would catch fire in the night and
would obsessively plan out an escape route in her head
before sleeping. She also became gripped by the fear
that she would die __ the night and leave her baby on his
own.
(9º§) Ellie asked her mum or fiance text her every
morning in case this happened.The new mum had her
wake-up call when she confessed this fear to her friends
one evening and saw the horror on their faces. She
booked a therapist appointment the next day.
What helped?
(10º§) Ellie said therapy was hugely helpful to her
recovery journey, as was medication. The mum saw
female therapist who specialised in anxiety, who taught
her techniques that Ellie said she used to this day. A
method deal with with her intrusive thoughts was to take
a deep breath when she was taken over by one, soak it
in and then weigh up the evidence it is true vs. the
evidence it isn't. "The one or two minutes it takes for you
to sum up that evidence for and against, you've
completely calmed down," Ellie said.
(11º§) Three years later Ellie said she's realised how
common her experience with postnatal depression is. "I'll
worry about my kids forever, I'll probably always get
these horrible thoughts and ideas, but I know how to deal
with them so I just get on with it. It doesn't control me at
all." She went on: "If you are in a dark place and feel like
you need help, just talk to someone." Then it's best you
get professional help, as these kinds of feelings are
"really hard to master on your own". The mum ended on
a happier note. "And if you had a bad experience and
you're nervous about your second, let me tell you it was a
completely different experience __ me second time
round.

Pompeii still has many secrets to uncover—but should we
keep digging?
In the last year alone, excavations in the ancient
Roman city of Pompeii have uncovered a 2,000-year-old
laundromat, a bedroom used by slaves, and a fresco
_________ an ancestor of pizza. None of those discoveries,
however, stemmed from new digs into the 20-foot layer of
ash that encased the city after Mount Vesuvius’ eruption in
A.D. 79.
Pompeii, of course, still has more secrets to reveal.
Estimates vary but anywhere between 15 to 25% of the city
remains covered. For many archaeologists though, the
question isn’t so much what they have left to find—but
should they continue digging at all?
For decades, the Italian government had a
moratorium on any new excavations in Pompeii. That means
most of the finds are byproducts of efforts to preserve and
restore what’s already been unearthed, according to Steven
Ellis, a professor of Roman archaeology at the University of
Cincinnati who worked on excavating Pompeii’s Porta Sabia
_______________. “We have enough of [excavated]
Pompeii for the general public. We have enough of Pompeii
for the scholarly community to learn from,” Ellis said. “What
we really need to be doing is keeping it as well preserved for
the future as we __________ can.” Going back over those
unearthed areas with new and better technology could yield
just as exciting discoveries as digging up new sites without
putting the city—and future generations’ ability to see it—at
risk, Ellis adds.
