Text 2 – Computers
(Text adapted from History of Computing. Retrieved from
https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~mitra/csFall2006/cs 303/lectures/history.html)
When you hear the term computers, it’s difficult to
imagine different devices from a laptop or a small
desktop. Believe it or not, they weren’t always like
they are today. They used to be very large and
heavy, sometimes as big as an entire room. Some
technology professors historically define computers,
as “a device that can help with computations”. The
word computation involves counting, calculating,
adding, subtracting, etc. The modern definition of a
computer is a little wider, because in our day and
age, computers store, compile, analyze and
compute an enormous amount of information.
Ancient computers were very interesting. Actually,
the first computer may have been located in Great
Britain, at Stonehenge. It is a man-made circle of
large stones. Citizens used it to measure the
weather and forecast the change of seasons. Some
specialists say that another ancient computer is the
abacus. It was used by the early Romans, Greeks,
and Egyptians to count and calculate. Even though
they are no longer in use, certainly, these early
devices are fascinating. Computers are embedded
in our history and some people say that we are
completely dependent of them. No matter the
complexity of the task, easy or difficult, some people
can’t do anything without them. Do you contest or
share this opinion?
Based ONLY on the information available in the
text, identify the modern historical definition of
the term “computer”.

Text 1- English as a global language
(Adapted from Teaching English Today: context
and objectives, Holden & Nobre, 2018, p.03)
All languages reflect the culture of the countries and regions where they have developed and are used. However, some languages are also used as a means of communication between a wide range of non-native speakers and contexts. In this way, the communication develops new priorities to reflect those contexts.
Today, English is probably the prime example of a global language. It is used to communicate in areas such as the workplace, science and technology, the arts and in the world of business. This is why so many parents are keen of their children to start learning it at an ever-earlier age. Students, too, realize that English in more than just a school subject: it is important for their own future success. This realization can be used to your advantage as a teacher:
Your students should be aware that English is widely used among non-native speakers in a variety of contexts in their own environments. It is no longer just linked with going to the US or Britain.
They are more likely to be motivated if they feel they are being given appropriate materials and practice for their own needs, which is easier to do nowadays, since English is present almost everywhere.
In fact, you are part of this world where English is used, however imperfectly, in real life, as well as being part of that other, classroom world. This gives your role even more importance.
The intercultural context
There are, then, clear practical and economic reasons why it is important for as many of your students as possible to feel positive about learning English, and ultimately, to feel confident about using it. However, there is also an equally important reason, which applies to all languages: their social function.
Learning and using another language can put people into contact, directly or indirectly, with others from different societies and cultures. It exposes them to different ways of thinking, different ways of communicating, different values. This, in turn, encourages them to think about their own culture, values and way of life. They realize there is not just one way of doing something, but many different ones.
In other words, as well as equipping learners with practical skills, learning a foreign language extends their horizons, which is one of the important aims of education in most countries.
Read the statements about the reading process
strategies and tick the incorrect one.

given, choose the correct alternative. You must
have in mind that the word ‘however’ is known

I. Discourse markers are words or expressions that link, manage, and help to organize sentences; they connect what is written or said.
II. Discourse markers are called “linking words” and they are also known as 'linking phrases', or 'sentence connectors'.
III. In the formation of the word and in its classification, syntactically, the elements that compound the discourse markers always derive from adjectives.

Why Easter is bad for ducks
On Christmas Eve, two Pekin ducks were found
frozen to a pond in Smithville, Ohio. They flapped their
wings and squawked, fruitlessly struggling to free
themselves until two locals, Maiara and Helder Bertolucci,
spotted them. The pair slid on their stomachs over razor-thin
ice and chiseled the animals free.
The rescued ducks—later named Olaf and Elsa, after
characters from Disney’s Frozen—were two of 109 domestic
ducks abandoned in a pond outside of a restaurant. A local
group ________ Good Sprout Rescue and Sanctuary rescued
the animals; two died, but the rest were rehomed to
sanctuaries or adopted. Every spring, the Barn Restaurant
would buy a hundred new babies for its patrons to enjoy—
but since this incident they’ve __________ not to do so
again.
Every year in springtime, particularly at Easter,
many people “impulse buy” ducklings as gifts, often for their
kids. But after the holiday, sometimes months later, animal
rescuers routinely see an uptick in abandoned adult ducks in
local parks and ponds, Di Leonardo says. There’s no
________ data on how often this happens, but he estimates
tens of thousands of domestic ducks are dumped each year
throughout the U.S. His organization rescues as many as 500
ducks per year in the New York City area alone.

La Mer lip balm is touted __ many celebs as a bit of a handbag necessity. But according to Mia, nothing beats a pot of good-old Vaseline. And while La Mer balm can set you back £58 ($75), Vaseline can be as cheap as a couple of pounds.
HOLY GRAIL I'm a dermatologist - here's how you get
can get rid of forehead wrinkles without Botox and
for under £10
(1º§)EACH passing day brings many moments that
cause you to furrow your brow. And the more face
scrunching you do, the more dreaded lines are likely to
emerge __ your forehead. But before you devote time
(and a decent amount of money) to fading those pesky
wrinkles, it's good idea to try and figure out what's really
causing your lines. If you're under 30, chances are your
forehead 'wrinkles' are in fact just dehydrated skin,
according to one medic.
(2º§)Dr Ivy Lee, a board-certified dermatologist practicing
in southern California, US, said dehydration lines can be
easily improved without splashing the cash on Botox.
She told Insider that unlike wrinkles caused by repetitive
muscle movement dehydration lines are finer and have a
"crepe paper-like texture when the affected skin is not
well hydrated." And while we may associate dehydration
with drinking water, the expert said drinking more water
does not have any added skin benefits. Instead, she
urges young people to use topical skin treatments.
What product should I use?
(3º§)Dr Ivy said you should look for moisturisers that
contain the following three ingredients:
Humectants, which attract water into the skin (eg:
hyaluronic acid)
Emollients, which repair the skin barrier and soften the
skin (ex: squalene and plant-derived oils).
Occlusives, which "trap moisture into the skin by creating
a seal," the expert said (ex: hydrated petroleum or
mineral oil).
(4º§) She recommended using CeraVe Moisturising
Cream - a 177ml tube from Boots costs will set up back
just £10.
Other cheap skincare products under £10
(5º§) There's no denying that luxury products contain
some premium ingredients and look pretty aesthetic, but
given the cost __ living crisis, affordable skincare is just
as important, especially when the products work just as
well. Some dermatologists have shared their favourite
skincare swaps for luxury products that they say work as
effectively as expensive versions.
(6º§)Vaseline vs La Mer lip balm
La Mer lip balm is touted __ many celebs as a bit of a handbag necessity. But according to Mia, nothing beats a pot of good-old Vaseline. And while La Mer balm can set you back £58 ($75), Vaseline can be as cheap as a couple of pounds.
(7º§)The INKEY List Vitamin C serum vs SkinCeuticals
Vitamin C creams and serums can brighten your skin
and, according to some studies, can reduce the signs of
ageing. But these products can be expensive, because
they can be tricky to make, Rebecca explained.
SkinCeuticals' C E ferulic vitamin C antioxidant serum is
an excellent product, she said - but it will set you back a
whopping £165 ($182). Instead, why not give the INKEY
List's own vitamin C a whirl, Mia suggested, which only
costs £9.99 ($15.99).

(1º§)EACH passing day brings many moments that
cause you to furrow your brow. And the more face
scrunching you do, the more dreaded lines are likely to
emerge __ your forehead. But before you devote time
(and a decent amount of money) to fading those pesky
wrinkles, it's good idea to try and figure out what's really
causing your lines. If you're under 30, chances are your
forehead 'wrinkles' are in fact just dehydrated skin,
according to one medic.
(2º§)Dr Ivy Lee, a board-certified dermatologist practicing
in southern California, US, said dehydration lines can be
easily improved without splashing the cash on Botox.
She told Insider that unlike wrinkles caused by repetitive
muscle movement dehydration lines are finer and have a
"crepe paper-like texture when the affected skin is not
well hydrated." And while we may associate dehydration
with drinking water, the expert said drinking more water
does not have any added skin benefits. Instead, she
urges young people to use topical skin treatments.
What product should I use?
(3º§)Dr Ivy said you should look for moisturisers that
contain the following three ingredients:
Humectants, which attract water into the skin (eg:
hyaluronic acid)
Emollients, which repair the skin barrier and soften the
skin (ex: squalene and plant-derived oils).
Occlusives, which "trap moisture into the skin by creating
a seal," the expert said (ex: hydrated petroleum or
mineral oil).
(4º§) She recommended using CeraVe Moisturising
Cream - a 177ml tube from Boots costs will set up back
just £10.
Other cheap skincare products under £10
(5º§) There's no denying that luxury products contain
some premium ingredients and look pretty aesthetic, but
given the cost __ living crisis, affordable skincare is just
as important, especially when the products work just as
well. Some dermatologists have shared their favourite
skincare swaps for luxury products that they say work as
effectively as expensive versions.
(6º§)Vaseline vs La Mer lip balm
La Mer lip balm is touted __ many celebs as a bit of a handbag necessity. But according to Mia, nothing beats a pot of good-old Vaseline. And while La Mer balm can set you back £58 ($75), Vaseline can be as cheap as a couple of pounds.
(7º§)The INKEY List Vitamin C serum vs SkinCeuticals
Vitamin C creams and serums can brighten your skin
and, according to some studies, can reduce the signs of
ageing. But these products can be expensive, because
they can be tricky to make, Rebecca explained.
SkinCeuticals' C E ferulic vitamin C antioxidant serum is
an excellent product, she said - but it will set you back a
whopping £165 ($182). Instead, why not give the INKEY
List's own vitamin C a whirl, Mia suggested, which only
costs £9.99 ($15.99).

Asteroids vs. comets: How do they differ, and do they pose a
threat to Earth?
Asteroids are _______________ chunks of rock that
measure in size from a few feet to hundreds of miles in
diameter. NASA has identified more than a million asteroids,
and more than 150 of them have their own moons. In 2022,
astronomers published evidence that the asteroid Elektra
has as many as _______ chunks of rock orbiting it—making it
the first known quadruple asteroid.
For many years, astronomers considered Ceres to
be the largest asteroid at about 590 miles wide. In 2006,
however, the International Astronomical Union reclassified
Ceres as a dwarf planet—making Vesta the largest asteroid
at 329 miles wide. Yet this remains a point of contention
among some astronomers, and the U.S. Geological Survey’s
Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature defines Ceres as both
an asteroid and a dwarf planet.
Comets are balls of ice and rock whose glowing tails
can sometimes be seen from Earth as they streak through
the night sky. Comets grow those tails whenever their orbits
bring them close to the sun, causing the icy objects to heat
up and _________ a trail of gas and dust. The sun
illuminates the tail, giving it a majestic glow.
Compared to asteroids, comets tend to have more
elliptical, or oval-shaped, orbits. They also contain more
chemical compounds that vaporize when heated, such as
water. And when observed through a telescope, comets
appear fuzzier than asteroids.

Read the quote about error to get familiarized with the topic.
“Mistakes are often divided into errors and slips. Errors happen when learners try to say something that is beyond their current level of language processing. Usually, learners cannot correct errors themselves because they don’t understand what is wrong. Errors play a necessary and important part in language learning. Slips are the result of tiredness, worry or other temporary emotions or circumstances. These kinds of mistakes can be corrected by learners once they realize they have made them.”
(SPRATT; PULLVERNESS; WILLIAMS, 2005, p. 44)
Judge the items below as (T) True or (F) False.
1. There are two main reasons why learners make errors. The first reason is influence from the learner’s first language (L1) on the second language. This is called interference or transfer. Learners may use sound patterns, lexis or grammatical structures from their own language in English. The second reason is because they are unconsciously working out or organizing language, but this process is not yet complete. This kind of error is called a developmental error.
2. Errors in which learners wrongly apply a rule for one item of the language to another item are known as overgeneralization, and as a second language learners’ language ability increases, these kinds of errors also reduce.
3. Errors are part of learner’s interlanguage, which develops and progresses as they learn more. Experts think that interlanguage is an essential and unavoidable stage in language learning. In other words, interlanguage and errors are necessary to language learning.
4. Errors are a natural part of learning. They usually show that learners are learning and that their internal mental processes are working on experimenting with language.
5. Sometimes errors do not disappear, but get fossilized. These fossilized errors may be the result of lack of exposure to the second language and/or of a learner’s lack of motivation to improve their level of accuracy.
Choose the CORRECT sequence.

“In recent years Content-Based Instruction (CBI) has become increasingly popular as a means of developing
linguistic ability. It has strong connections to project work, task-based learning and a holistic approach to language
instruction and has become particularly popular within the state school secondary (11 - 16 years old) education
sector. It is a kind of approach in which lesson focuses on the topic or subject matter. During the lesson students
are focused on learning about something that interests them, from a serious science subject to their favorite pop
star or even a topical news story or film”.
Peachey, N. (2021), disponível em: https://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/article/content-based-instruction, accessed on 15h December 2022.
According to Peachey, judge the items as (T) True or (F) False concerning CBI ADVANTAGES.
I. It can make learning a language more interesting and motivating. Students can use the language to fulfill a real purpose, which can make them both more independent and confident.
II. Taking information from different sources, re-evaluating and restructuring that information can help students to develop very valuable thinking skills that can then be transferred to other subjects. So students can also develop a much wider knowledge of the world through CBI, which can feed back into improving and supporting their general educational needs.
III. CBI is very popular among EAP (English for Academic Purposes) teachers as it helps students to develop valuable study skills such as note taking, summarizing and extracting key information from texts.
IV. The inclusion of a group work element within the framework given can also help students to develop their collaborative skills, which can have great social value. V. Particularly in monolingual classes, the overuse of the students' native language during parts of the lesson can be a problem. Because the lesson isn't explicitly focused on language practice, students find it much easier and quicker to use their mother tongue.
VI. It can be hard to find information sources and texts that lower levels can understand. Also the sharing of information in the target language may cause great difficulties.
