Based on the excerpt from Virginia Woolf's 'To the
Lighthouse': '“So she looked over her shoulder, at the
town. The lights were rippling and running as if they
were drops of silver water held firm in a wind. And all
the poverty, all the suffering had turned to that, Mrs.
Ramsay thought. To the Lighthouse, she said to herself,
raising her hand as if to let the bird fly free.' In the
context of this passage, what does the term 'lighthouse'
metaphorically represent in terms of the English
vocabulary for objects and parts of the house?

READ TEXT 3 TO ANSWER THE QUESTION:
Text 3
The large majority of humankind is more or less fluent in 2 or even more languages. This raises the fundamental question how the
language network in the brain is organized such that the correct target language is selected at a particular occasion. Here we present particular
behavioral and functional magnetic resonance imaging data showing that bilingual processing leads to language conflict in the bilingual brain even when the bilinguals' task only required target language knowledge. This finding demonstrates that the bilingual brain cannot avoid language conflict, because words from the target and nontarget languages become automatically activated during
reading. Importantly, stimulus-based language conflict was found in brain regions in the LIPC associated with phonological and
semantic processing, whereas response-based language con whereas flict was only found in the pre-supplementary motor area/anterior
cingulate cortex when language conflict leads to response conflicts.
Index terms: event-related functional magnetic resonance imaging, interlingual homographs, lexical decision, pre-supplementary
motor area and anterior cingulated, response conflict.

Leia o trecho e analise as assertivas a seguir:
The type of activity is popularly called ‘spot-the-differences’. The objective was to promote oral interaction in English by using WhatsApp with their pairs or trios, by recording audio messages, to describe and find at least 8 differences. The activity could be described as an information-gap and/or jigsaw task. In the former, each of the interactants had part of the answers and they needed to share information and negotiate meanings to accomplish the final objective of the activity. In the latter, each interactant held a different piece of information and supplied or requested this information as needed to complete the task (adapted from Salbego and Tumolo, 2020).
I. A atividade faz uso da tecnologia para interação oral via aplicativo de mensagens ao mesmo tempo que explora recursos multimodais, como imagens, áudios, etc.
II. A atividade descrita acima pode ser utilizada em salas de aula virtuais, uma vez que sua natureza possibilita que os interagentes estejam fisicamente distantes.
III. A utilização de recursos visuais, como figurinhas e GIFs, pode ampliar as possibilidades de negociações de sentido entre os estudantes.

Leia o texto abaixo:
Is there a difference between reading on screen and reading on paper in terms of comprehension?
Research published recently showed the different effects of comprehension of reading on paper versus reading on screen. Paper-based reading produced better outcomes. The authors said:
‘Although there are clear advantages of digital-based assessment and learning, including reduced costs and increased individualization, research indicates that there may be disadvantages as well.’
The researchers raised the question about whether ‘increasing exposure to technology, with its emphasis on speed and multitasking, may encourage a shallower kind of processing that leads to a decrease in deep comprehension in digital environments’. They found that research studies that had used only narrative texts showed that comprehension was not affected, whether the reading was done on paper or on screen. In contrast, in the studies that involved information texts or a mixture of information texts and narratives, paper-based reading was advantageous.
(Disponível em: https://www.oxfordowl.co.uk/).
Com base no texto, pode-se concluir que:
I. Há uma vantagem para a leitura no papel, a despeito da tipologia textual.
II. Não houve diferenças de compreensão entre meios (digital ou impresso) em textos narrativos.
III. As diferenças observadas se deram quando foram comparadas leituras de textos narrativos ou um misto de textos narrativos e expositivos, ou seja, há uma vantagem declarada na leitura no papel.
Quais estão INCORRETAS?

Leia o texto a seguir e assinale a alternativa INCORRETA sobre o processo de leitura.
Reading a text does not imply that it does not have many unitary meanings potentially accessible to all. It rather allows a variety of interpretation by different readers, governed by factors such as purpose, background knowledge, and the relationship between the reader and the text (Nuttall, 1996; Aebersold & Field, 1997). From this perspective, reading is understood to be a complex cognitive process in which reader and text interact to (re)create meaningful discourse (Araújo, 2005).

According to information from the MetSouth, the heat wave has already begun, affecting mainly the South and Southeast of Brazil, with atypically high temperatures for the month of November, a period that is already historically hot, but which, in 2023, could see records broken.
Until Friday (10), the most intense heat should be concentrated in the Central-West and in the interior of São Paulo, but from the weekend onwards the mass of hot air increases and the maximum temperatures begin to reach more areas of Brazil, just as it was in September and October. (...)

Agronomy looks at agriculture from an integrated,
holistic perspective. Agronomists are specialists in crop
and soil science, as well as ecology. Some things they look
at are:
• the properties of the soil;
• how the soil interacts with the growing crop;
• what nutrients (fertilizers) the crop needs;
• when and how to apply these nutrients;
• the ways that crops grow and develop;
• how climate and other environmental factors affect the crop at all stages;
• how best to control weeds, insects, fungi, and other crop pests; and,
• how to grow crops effectively and profitably while conserving and protecting the environment.

According to the text, agronomists are specialized in
ecology as well as in science. Therefore, they can be
