Travelling through Brazil and not taking in the variety of
local dishes and tastes of the country’s different regions
definitely makes for an incomplete experience. In the
northern region, for example, strongly influenced by the larger
indigenous presence mixed with European immigration,
local food has evolved to be quite differentiated from that of
other regions. In Brazil, the mixing of several different
peoples over 500 years of history has produced a great mix
of traditions, ingredients and dishes introduced by native and
immigrant populations alike. Brazil’s northern region consists
of the states of Amazonas, Roraima, Amapá, Pará, Tocantins,
Rondônia and Acre. It is also influenced by Portuguese and
African immigrants who arrived in the country since the
beginning of colonisation. However, according to Joseny
Juvito, a chef specialized in northern cuisine, the region
is predominantly indigenous and, therefore, has specific
peculiarities influenced by the fact.

Fake news typically refers to news stories or headlines
that are deliberately fabricated to mislead1
or manipulate
readers. These stories often look like real news articles
but are entirely made-up or twisted versions of true events,
created with the intention to deceive2
. Fake news is a type
of disinformation: false information that is created with the
intention to mislead. Disinformation includes not only fake
news, but also other types of claims, such as those put out
as government propaganda, or by social media accounts or
brands in order to sell a product or service. Misinformation, on
the other hand, is any kind of false or inaccurate information
— whether it’s shared intentionally or not. People often spread
misinformation because they genuinely believe it’s true and
don’t realize they’re sharing something incorrect.

Disinformation1 in public health is a distinct type of information risk which, unlike misinformation2, is created with malicious intent to spread discord, disharmony and mistrust in targets such as government agencies, scientific experts, public health agencies, private sector and law enforcement, among others. The potential impacts of disinformation can be understood through examples during the Covid-19 pandemic. The Covid-19 pandemic had two key elements that created the perfect storm for disinformation to proliferate and spread. First, it rapidly caused global fear, increasing uncertainty and doubt. Second, it occurred at a point in history where people can easily access, create and share information (as well as misinformation and disinformation) widely over the internet, mobile telecommunications, media and social media platforms. As the pandemic took hold, many posts appeared on social media and spread through instant messaging communications, increasing uncertainty about the treatment, the safety and effectiveness of vaccines, the usefulness of social distancing, and more. This caused social protest, delayed vaccine uptake and led to higher death rates in some instances.

Read the excerpt and answer the question: "Research on
bilingual education consistently demonstrates that
students who develop strong literacy skills in their first
language acquire a second language more efficiently, a
phenomenon linguists refer to as cross-linguistic transfer.
Contrary to popular assumptions, maintaining and
strengthening the mother tongue does not hinder foreign
language acquisition; rather, it provides cognitive
scaffolding upon which new linguistic knowledge is
systematically built. Policies that disregard first-language
literacy in favor of exclusive second-language immersion
may therefore undermine the bilingual development they
seek to promote." The passage's central argument is that

When tax bills are in the millions or even billions, some individuals will go to any lengths to avoid paying up
RS, HMRC, FTS or CRA: whatever you like to call him, there's no hiding from the taxman. No individual or institution is immune from
the annual tax deadline, although many aim to reduce what they pay as much as possible through regulatory loopholes and profit
redistribution schemes.
When that tips over into illegal territory, though, it becomes a major problem. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) estimates that
over $600bn is lost every year due to tax avoidance, with the US, China and Japan named as the greatest culprits.
Multinational technology companies including Google, Apple and Amazon have been slapped with multiple allegations in recent years
regarding non-payment of taxes in Europe. In 2016, Apple was ordered to pay $15.4bn in back taxes to Ireland after it was revealed
that the company paid just one percent tax on its European profits in 2003, down to 0.005 percent in 2014. That same year Google was
accused of using two regulatory loopholes, nicknamed the 'double Irish', allowing it to pay just six percent corporation tax rather than
the required 19.3 percent.
The Double Irish arrangement was a base erosion and profit shifting (BEPS) corporate tax avoidance tool used mainly by United States
multinationals since the late 1980s to avoid corporate taxation on non-US profits. (The US was one of a small number of countries that
did not use a "territorial" tax system, and taxed corporations on all profits, no matter whether the profit was made outside the US or not,
in contrast to "territorial" tax systems which tax only profits made within that country.) It was the largest tax avoidance tool in history. By
2010, it was shielding US$100 billion annually in US multinational foreign profits from taxation, and was the main tool by which US
multinationals built up untaxed offshore reserves of US$1 trillion from 2004 to 2018.
Despite US knowledge of the Double Irish for a decade, it was the European Commission that in October 2014 forced Ireland to close
the scheme, starting in January 2015. However, users of existing schemes, such as Apple, Google, Facebook and Pfizer, were given
until January 2020 to close them.
At the announcement of the closure, it was known that multinationals had replacement BEPS tools in Ireland, the Single Malt (2014),
and Capital Allowances for Intangible Assets (CAIA) (2009):
-Single malt is almost identical to the Double Irish, and was identified with Microsoft (Linkedln), and Allergan in 2017;
-CAIA can provide up to twice the tax shield of Single Malt, or Double Irish, and was identified with Apple in the 2015 leprechaun
economics affair, i.e., a huge statistical distortion in Ireland's GDP caused by Apple's tax restructuring. The company transferred
intangible assets to its Irish subsidiary, which artificially inflated the country's GDP by more than 26.3% in a single year (later
revised to 24.6%), an absurd leap for a relatively small economy. This growth did not reflect real production, but rather Apple's tax
inversion of about US$ 300 billion of its intangible assets (mainly intellectual property) to Ireland.

Defining the Role of a Tax Auditor
The core function of a tax auditor is to examine financial records and supporting documentation against the figures reported on
official returns, whether for individuals or corporations. This examination seeks to verify every line item, from gross receipts and
reported income to specific deductions claimed for ordinary and necessary business expenses. A primary goal is to confirm that the
taxpayer's stated liability aligns precisely with the relevant federal or state tax law.
The auditor works to identify discrepancies or misapplications of the law that may lead to an underpayment of taxes due. They
scrutinize documentation that supports deductions, such as receipts for depreciation claimed or substantiation for charitable
contributions. The auditor ultimately determines if the taxpayer owes additional tax, is due a refund, or if the return is accurate as filed.

Jackson, Mississippi has ‘no water to drink or flush toilets’
By Sam Cabral
BBC News, Washington
Some 180,000 residents in Jackson, Mississippi have “indefinitely” lost access to reliable running water
after excessive rainfall and flooding.
Rising floodwaters over the weekend breached the city’s main water treatment facility, bringing it to the
brink of collapse. A state of emergency has been declared, and schools, restaurants and businesses
have temporarily closed. Raw reservoir water is coming through the pipes, residents were told. Both the
city and state are distributing bottled drinking water to residents as well as non-potable water via tanker
truck.
Jackson residents are also experiencing low water pressure and have been under a boil-water notice for
the past month. “Do not drink the water,” Governor Tate Reeves warned at a Monday news conference.
“In too many cases, it is raw water from the reservoir being pushed through the pipes.” Problems at the
OB Curtis Water Plant began after heavy rains caused the Pearl River to crest and spill over onto city
streets over the weekend.
City hall confirmed on Monday that river water had entered the facility, which treats more than 50 million
US gallons (190 million liters) per day. “Adjustments to the water-treatment process are being made and
have led to a temporary decrease in water production for some areas,” it said in a statement. “This will
remain an issue for the next couple days as we work to refill the tanks.” Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar
Lumumba said the “very fragile” city-run facility would not turn off its water supply, but officials needed
time to change how they treat the contaminated water.
Governor Reeves, who described the plant as long understaffed and poorly operated, said its main
motors had gone out and backup pumps too have failed. “Until it is fixed, it means we do not have
reliable running water at scale,” he said. “It means the city cannot produce enough water to fight fires, to
reliably flush toilets, and to meet other critical needs.”
Officials have boosted production at a second treatment facility from 20 to 30 million US gallons per day,
but water pressure has dropped system-wide. All public schools in Jackson shifted to virtual learning on
Tuesday amid the crisis, while businesses and restaurants reported needing to purchase ice and water
jugs. The southern state’s capital is more than 80% African American.
Experts say climate change is driving more extreme weather events like the rainfall in Jackson. The heavy
rains this August have forced evacuations, inundated homes and washed away roads. “Quite honestly
this has become commonplace. We’re experiencing more rain in our rainy season, hotter summers, and
colder winters, and it has taken a toll on our infrastructure,” Mr. Lumumba said.
(Jackson, Mississippi has ’no water to drink or flush toilets’ - BBC News)
Sobre a situação na cidade de Jackson, no estado do Mississipi, considere as afirmativas a seguir.
I. A cidade está sem água potável porque somente uma estação de tratamento atende a sua demanda.
II. O governo está distribuindo somente água potável, em garrafas, aos cidadãos.
III. O governo reconhece que a estação de tratamento afetada não tinha infraestrutura adequada.
IV. O governo reconhece que as inundações em Jackson, MI, são consequências das mudanças climáticas.

Mo Farah says he was trafficked to the U.K. and forced into child labor
July 12, 20229:50 AM ET Mo Farah says he was trafficked to the U.K. and forced into child labor : NPR
Olympic gold medalist Mo Farah says he was trafficked to the U.K. under a false name and forced into child
labor, revealing stunning details about the painful path that culminated in him being awarded a knighthood.
“Most people know me as Mo Farah, but it’s not my name — or, it’s not the reality,” Farah said in a new
documentary about the track star.
“The real story is, I was born in Somaliland, north of Somalia, as Hussein Abdi Kahin,” he added.
Farah has previously said he came to the U.K. as a young child with his parents, fleeing the war in Somalia.
But he now says his father died when Farah was four years old, and that he was soon separated from his
mother and other relatives.
“I was brought into the U.K. illegally under the name of another child, called Mohammed Farah,” he said. At
the time, he was around 8 or 9 years old.
The documentary, made by the BBC and Red Bull Studios, includes footage of visa documents that Farah
says were faked, bearing his photo and another child’s name.
“I know I’ve taken someone else’s place. And I do wonder, what is Mohammed doing now?” he said in the
documentary, clips of which are posted on the BBC’s website.
The woman who brought Farah into the U.K. had told him he would soon join his relatives in the country. He
carried a piece of paper with his family members’ contact information on it. But after arriving, the woman
tore up the paper and threw it in the trash.
“The lady, what she did wasn’t right,” Farah said.
Farah described being exploited and threatened, as he worked in the household of another family. There,
he was forced to cook and clean and tend to other children — and he was told to keep his mouth shut about
his true origin, or the authorities would take him away.
“Often, I would just lock myself in the bathroom and cry, and nobody’s there to help. So after a while, I just learned not to have that emotion,” he said.
The celebrated runner says his unique abilities and luck are all that saved him from trafficking and forced
servitude. When he was finally allowed to attend school, his talents quickly drew the attention of a teacher
who connected with him — and who then helped Farah get placed into a foster home with a different Somali
family.
Farah, who received a knighthood from Queen Elizabeth in 2017, says he’s speaking out now about what
he went through to raise public awareness about other people who are caught in the same plight. The BBC
says it attempted to contact the woman who brought Farah into the U.K. for her side of the story, but she
hasn’t replied.
(Mo Farah says he was trafficked to the U.K. and forced into child labor : NPR)
Sobre a história de Mo Farah, considere as afirmativas a seguir.
I. Ele contou outra história sobre sua ida para a Grã-Bretanha.
II. Ele foi forçado a trabalho análogo a escravo durante sua infância.
III. Ele foi para a Grã-Bretanha sem nenhum contato de seus parentes.
IV. Ele decidiu contar sua real história graças à condecoração que ganhou da rainha Elizabeth.

On Monday, Ms. Rivera started a media project with her 8th graders. She asked each group to bring a short news story and highlight two sentences that sounded biased. In class, she reminded them that the goal was to understand how language can guide the reader, not to attack the author. By the end of the lesson, even the quiet students were sharing examples.
From Ms. Rivera’s reminder, it can be inferred that:

South-East Asian floods leave more than 1
million homeless across Indonesia and Sri
Lanka
Recent flooding and landslides across
Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Thailand have caused
severe devastation. More than 1,300 people have
died, and over 1.2 million residents in Indonesia
are displaced, many living in temporary shelters
under difficult conditions.
When rain began pelting villages on the
Indonesian island of Sumatra, residents thought
it could simply be another wet season storm. But
then it got heavier and it did not stop for days.
When floodwater began rising through their
homes, the residents realised how much trouble
they were in. Siti Nurbaya Siregar and her family
had to scramble to the roof once the water rose to
their ________________ necks.
"I was rescued by my neighbour on a tiny boat,"
the Langkat region resident said.
"It was loaded with my children, my mum, other
relatives. Altogether, seven of us were on it.
"At one point the boat almost flipped over on the
way to the rescue point."
Half of the homes in her village were destroyed.
Sri Lanka also reported more than
218,000 people in shelters, while rescue teams
continue searching for missing residents.
Governments in the region have
promised reconstruction, but displaced
communities continue to demand more
immediate support such as food, shelter, and
medical care.

South-East Asian floods leave more than 1
million homeless across Indonesia and Sri
Lanka
Recent flooding and landslides across
Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Thailand have caused
severe devastation. More than 1,300 people have
died, and over 1.2 million residents in Indonesia
are displaced, many living in temporary shelters
under difficult conditions.
When rain began pelting villages on the
Indonesian island of Sumatra, residents thought
it could simply be another wet season storm. But
then it got heavier and it did not stop for days.
When floodwater began rising through their
homes, the residents realised how much trouble
they were in. Siti Nurbaya Siregar and her family
had to scramble to the roof once the water rose to
their ________________ necks.
"I was rescued by my neighbour on a tiny boat,"
the Langkat region resident said.
"It was loaded with my children, my mum, other
relatives. Altogether, seven of us were on it.
"At one point the boat almost flipped over on the
way to the rescue point."
Half of the homes in her village were destroyed.
Sri Lanka also reported more than
218,000 people in shelters, while rescue teams
continue searching for missing residents.
Governments in the region have
promised reconstruction, but displaced
communities continue to demand more
immediate support such as food, shelter, and
medical care.
