Read the text and answer the question.
Schools often adopt digital platforms quickly because purchase cycles reward novelty and visibility. Login rates and dashboard activity are paraded as evidence of impact, even when teachers report that the dashboards narrow what counts as learning. A teacher who resists a mandated platform is frequently labeled a laggard. Yet hesitation can be prudent: when pacing is dictated by a metric, attention may shift from understanding to what the metric can capture. The argument here is not to reject technology. It is to renegotiate control—who sets the goals, which data matter, and what should remain off the record. Only then can professional judgment act as a productive constraint, preventing means from swallowing ends.
Which statement best captures the author’s central claim?

Text 1


Reading is not only about recognizing words — it’s about understanding, questioning, and connecting ideas. Strategic readers use different techniques to make sense of what they read. Before reading, they look at titles, subtitles, and pictures to predict what the text might be about. This helps them activate their background knowledge and prepare for new information.

While reading, good readers identify key words, take notes, and make inferences — that is, they read between the lines. They also stop to check if they really understand the text, and they don’t hesitate to reread a paragraph if something isn’t clear. Scanning and skimming are two important strategies: “scanning” is used to find specific information, like dates or names, and “skimming” is reading quickly to get the general idea.

After reading, strategic readers summarize the main ideas and reflect on what they have learned. They may also discuss the text with others, compare it with different opinions, or relate it to real-life experiences. In this way, reading becomes more meaningful and enjoyable. Being a strategic reader means being an active thinker who learns from every text.

One day, when the lead actor suddenly fell ill hours before the premiere of the much-anticipated play, panic gripped the cast and crew. The director, in desperation, turned to Arjun and asked him to step in.

Although reluctant, Arjun agreed. He spent every spare moment backstage absorbing the script and mimicking the lead actor’s delivery. When the curtains finally rose, Arjun’s heart pounded as he stepped into the spotlight. His voice trembled at first, but as the story unfolded, something remarkable happened. He connected with the character and felt a surge of confidence.

The cardiovascular system provides blood supply throughout the body. Responding to various stimuli can control the velocity and amount of blood carried through the vessels. The cardiovascular system comprises the heart, arteries, veins, and capillaries. The heart and vessels work intricately to provide adequate blood flow to all body parts.

New Study: This Regional Accent Is Considered the Most Trustworthy in the U.S.—And the Results Will Really Surprise You!

By Jennifer Geddes

A person’s cadence counts for a lot.

Everyone knows first impressions are important— and we don’t just make them based on sight. Beyond a chic outfit and well-coiffed hair, how a person sounds can also be a big factor when forming an initial opinion. In fact, a recent analysis of more than a dozen American accents conducted by BetUS Casino found that some folks’ speech actually conveys more honesty and reliability than others’.

At this point, you’re probably praying your own voice sounds dependable, not shifty or shady, right? Try to relax, and then read on to learn (nay, hear!) where the most trustworthy accents are located.

How was the study conducted?

As with many studies today, internet data helped determine which parts of the country sound the most steadfast and true. BetUS Casino crafted the report, which is current as of Aug. 15, 2025, by focusing on how people feel about 14 different regional accents.

How did the company determine those feelings?

First, researchers looked at internet search terms like “friendly (accent)” or “professional (accent).” Then, to complete the rankings, they compiled data on the rate of financial crimes per 10,000 people, plus the number of lawyers and primary-care doctors in each area.

Why doctors and lawyers, you may ask? Well, these are professions that rely on trust—after all, you might have to put your life in their hands! The more of these professionals in an area, the more trustworthy the accent. Once the study authors had the information in hand, they weighted the data and ranked the regions on a scale of 1–100.

Which regional accent is considered the most trustworthy?

Now hear this: The regional accent that’s considered to be the most trustworthy hails from Boston!

Yup, the fine citizens of Beantown scored 56.1, which was enough to take top honors for sounding highly dependable. Boston ranks so strongly thanks to more than 23,300 searches related to how kind and upstanding the accent sounds. The Massachusetts capital and largest city in New England also sports a low level of financial crime and is home to tens of thousands of lawyers and doctors.

Boston shines in other ways too, underlining the trust factor essential to its distinctive accent. For example, one recent WalletHub report list Boston as the third most caring city in the nation, while another names Massachusetts as the best U.S. state to live in. And the Bay State has excellent health care, with the highest childhood vaccination rates, lowest infant mortality and fewest premature avoidable deaths.

Want to sound just like a Bostonian? Start by dropping some of your R’s, as in “pahk the cah” and “wicked smaht.” Or listen to Ben Affleck turn on the telltale accent in his Dunkin’ commercials. Other famous Bostonians with perfect inflection include Matt Damon, Mark Wahlberg and Amy Poehler.

Marque verdadeiro ou falso para as sentenças abaixo.

( ) Na frase “The more of these professionals in an area, the more trustworthy the accent,” a palavra “these” refere-se especificamente a lawyers and primary-care doctors, mencionados anteriormente.
( ) Em “Once the study authors had the information in hand, they weighted the data and ranked the regions,” o pronome “they” está incorretamente empregado, pois não possui um referente claro no texto anterior.
( ) Na sentença “Want to sound just like a Bostonian? Start by dropping some of your R’s,” o pronome possessivo “your” referese genericamente ao leitor, mantendo o tom informal e direto do texto.
