Rising sea levels could severely disrupt crude oil
shipments and erode energy security in import-dependent
countries like China, South Korea and Japan, with many of the
world’s biggest terminals vulnerable to flooding, researchers
said on Tuesday.
Melting ice and swelling seas caused by rising
temperatures could “unleash unstoppable multi-metre sea
level rise which will not only sink key oil ports and disrupt
global oil trade but also swamp coastal refineries and
petrochemical facilities”, the China Water Risk (CWR) think
tank warned in a report.
A 2021 report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate
Change estimated that on current trends, average sea levels
could rise by more than a metre by the end of the century,
adding that a two-metre rise could not be ruled out.

What are human rights?
Human rights are rights we have simply because we exist
as human beings – they are not granted by any state. These
universal rights are inherent to us all, regardless of nationality,
sex, national or ethnic origin, color, religion, language, or any
other status. They range from the most fundamental – the
right to life – to those that make life worth living, such as the
rights to food, education, work, health, and liberty.

The belief that students don’t learn English effectively in public schools can have a great impact on the
emotions, beliefs, and professional identity of Brazilian English teachers. This belief may stem from a
variety of factors, such as limited resources, large class sizes, and inadequate language proficiency among
students. As a result, teachers may experience a range of emotions, including frustration, disappointment,
and a sense of helplessness in their efforts to facilitate language learning in such environments. Emotions
influence beliefs and vice-versa. Understanding this relationship is necessary to offer a more supportive
environment to help teachers to re-signify their beliefs and emotions. Numerous studies have shown that
emotions are also interconnected with various other concepts, including identities and motivations.

Burgeoning online environments offer completely new opportunities for ethnographic and other forms of
qualitative research. Yet there are no clear standards for how we study online texts from an ethnographic
perspective. In this article, we identify barriers to the application of traditional qualitative methods online,
using the example of a systematic thematic analysis of weight-loss blogs. These barriers include the influence
of the technology structuring online content, the fluid nature of online texts such as blogs and the highly
connected and public nature of online identities, which may span multiple social media platforms. We
discuss some potential approaches to addressing these challenges as preliminary steps toward developing
a tool kit suited to ethical, high-quality online modes of ethnographic research.

Last week, when an English teacher got into her High School class, one of her students was showing the poem above to her friends. She said she had found it online and was curious about it because its structure was different from the ones she was used to reading. The teacher was pleased to hear that, and thought this would be an excellent opportunity to introduce her class into this non-canonical literature. She started presenting the author, Rupi Kaur, a contemporary Indian poet. Then, she read it aloud and asked them to work in pairs to figure out its main idea.
Considering the students’ ages, their school level and their critical thinking ability, the teacher anticipated they should be able to understand that

Discussions around teaching in a culturally sustaining manner in the English language arts classroom,
specifically when teaching literary analysis, often address the need to incorporate multicultural literature
so that students are exposed to stories told from diverse perspectives. However, the reality in many schools
is that teachers do not have ownership over their curriculum in a way that allows them to choose which
texts they should read and study with students. In this context, culturally sustaining teaching presents a
difficult challenge. In this literature review, the author presents classroom strategies that apply a critical
literacy lens to analysis of canonical literature as a way to create a place for culturally sustaining teaching
within a prescribed curriculum.
ERVIN, J. Critically reading the canon: culturally sustaining approaches to a prescribed literary curriculum. Journal of adolescent & adult literacy, v. 65, n. 4, 2022 (adapted).

Read the excerpt below about Canada and choose the correct answer to the following questions:
The vast majority of Canada is English-speaking, but this varies from province to province, with French also being commonly spoken in certain areas, but there are also over 70 aboriginal languages still spoken in areas that have existed for hundreds of years.
With two main languages, it can be hard to know what to expect, but most tourist locations will speak or at least understand English, so you don’t need to worry about swatting up on your French as you go. But, the further away from the tourist hot spots, you might start to hear different languages more frequently.

Read the short story below and answer the following question:
The thirsty Crow
On a summer afternoon, a crow felt thirsty. It looked here and there but could not find a single drop of water. After a long time, it found a pitcher. There were few drops of water inside this. But the crow could not reach that water. It started to feel more thirsty. The crow again looked at its surroundings and found some pebbles nearby. So it took the pebbles one by one and started to drop them inside the pitcher. Then the water level started to increase. When the crow finally dropped all the pebbles, the water level reached the pitcher's top. The crow drank the water and finally quenched the hard thirst.
