The changes to Earth’s natural patterns reveal an
interconnected web of ecological systems that are undergoing
profound changes beyond what many researchers have predicted.
Scientists say the culprit is clear: Ever since the Industrial
Revolution, the relentless burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil,
and gas has been adding heat-trapping gases to the atmosphere,
leading to a sharp rise in global temperatures. The hottest year in
recorded history was 2024, and each of the 10 warmest years on
record have come in the past decade.
Since 1997, when nations agreed to limit planet-warming
gases as part of the landmark Kyoto Protocol, humanity has
released more greenhouse gases than in all prior history. The
temperature rise associated with the growing volume of heattrapping gas has kicked in, and it is continuing to rise. And at the
same time, the ability of the planet’s natural systems to absorb
planet-warming gases like carbon dioxide appears to be
diminishing.
David Gelles. One thing’s for sure, the weather is getting wilder.
The New York Times International Edition, Nova York, 21-22 mar. 2026, p. 2 (adapted).
Considering the preceding text, judge the following item.
The structure "appears to be diminishing", used at the end of the text, indicates the observation of an ongoing gradual process.

Life just might exist on Mars after all
The red planet may have once been home to an
abundance of microbes. New studies suggest it's possible
that some hardy microbes managed to survive underground
in a frozen state.
About 3.5 billion years ago, two of the planets that
orbited the sun may have had biospheres of similar bulk.
One, Earth, evolved in a way that allowed life to flourish and
splinter into endless forms most beautiful. Mars, the other
world, followed a different path.
Today the Martian surface is hostile to life as we
know it, but as this scientific story goes, Mars may have once
hosted a rich abundance of microbes. Residing in the
planet’s briny underworld and shielded from the lethal
radiation that bathes the surface, these organisms could
have grown in nooks and ____________, multiplying until
their collective heft rivaled Earth’s cache of life. Called
methanogens, Mars’s microbes would have inhaled
atmospheric hydrogen and carbon dioxide and exhaled
methane gas - and in a twist, they may have turned out to be
their own worst enemy.
Over time, their growing, insatiable appetite would
have robbed the Martian atmosphere of hydrogen - a
powerful greenhouse gas during the planet’s early days -
ultimately casting a deadly freeze over the planet and
driving microbial populations into deeper, warmer crannies.
How long those burrowing microbes could have survived in
the deep is unknown. It’s possible they were only a shortlived flash of life on an otherwise sterile world.
“Maybe extinction is the cosmic default of life in the
universe,” says Boris Sauterey of the Institut de Biologie de
l’Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris. “It’s not the process of
life ____________ that is limiting; it’s life maintaining itself
that is limiting.”
But perhaps, more than 30 feet beneath the surface
and encased in ice, these ancient single-celled organisms
achieved a state of dormancy - a sort of cryopreserved
slumber, ready to perk up when more life-friendly conditions
arise.
The Martian interior may not be as lifeless as its
face. It could host a world of alien organisms that are
capable of waiting thousands of years between each turn of
their metabolic engines.
This ____________ may sound farfetched, but
recent results from scientists modeling the habitability of
ancient Mars and studying the hardiness of microbes in labs
and beneath our own planet’s surface all point in the same
direction: It’s a long shot, but it’s possible life evolved on
Mars and still exists. And scientists may just find signs of that
life when meteors barrel into Mars and excavate buried
layers of ice, or when new spacecraft arrive to plumb this
underground realm.

have you been waiting?” is classified as:

O texto III refere-se à questão.
The overnight attack left very little time for
residents to take shelter.1
— Andrew E. Kramer, Nicole Tung and Victoria
Kim2
KYIV, Ukraine — Russia targeted the Ukrainian
capital, Kyiv, yet again with a missile attack in the
early hours of Thursday, killing two women and a
child who were not able to get into a closed
shelter. Loud explosions were heard just minutes
after air-raid sirens sounded throughout the city,
waking residents worn out by a month of
relentless attacks.
Kyiv’s mayor, Vitali Klitschko, said on the
Telegram messaging app that an additional 16
people were injured by debris from air defense
systems shooting down incoming attacks.
Ukraine’s general staff headquarters said Kyiv
had been attacked by a volley of 10 Iskander
ballistic missiles, all of which were shot down.
The city’s military administration said some of the debris fell on a clinic and an adjacent
building. A mother and child were killed minutes
after the air-raid alert while trying to get into a
bomb shelter at the clinic that was locked,
according to Mr. Klitschko and two emergency
workers at the scene who declined to be named
because they were not authorized to speak to the
news media. The woman and her child were not
immediately identified.
President Volodymyr Zelensky, in his nightly
address, was sharply critical of local officials for
failing to ensure all bomb shelters were open
when sirens sounded. The people responsible
for the locked shelter door should be prosecuted,
he said.
“Never again should a situation like this
night in Kyiv, when people came to the shelter,
and the shelter is closed, happen,” he said. “It is
the duty of local authorities — a very specific duty
— to ensure the availability and availability of
shelters 24 hours a day. It is painful to see a
careless attitude toward this duty. It hurts to see
losses.”
City officials said they had opened a
criminal investigation into the clinic and the
administrators responsible for operating the
shelter there, focused on whether the shelter was
properly maintained and why it may have been
inaccessible, Mr. Klitschko said. Police officers will
now patrol bomb shelters during air raids to make
sure they are open, he added.
Later in the day, the Ukrainian prosecutor
general’s office said four people had been
detained in connection with the incident: the first
deputy of Kyiv’s Desnyansky district, the director
and deputy director of the clinic, and a security
guard.
A man who lives near the clinic and who
gave his name as Yaroslav told the Ukrainian
public broadcaster Suspilne that his 33-year-old
wife, Natalya, was also killed after she and their
9-year-old daughter, Polina, were unable to get
into the shelter.
Yaroslav said people were trying
desperately to get in. “People were knocking,
knocking for a very long time,” he said, adding,
“There were women and children and nobody
opened it.”
After what he described as an explosion,
Yaroslav found Natalya bleeding alongside a
blanket she brought for their daughter and a blue
bag carrying family documents, according to the
Suspilne report. His daughter, who was not
injured, saw what happened to her mother,
Yaroslav said.
While Kyiv has been attacked since the first
days of the war, the pace and intensity of the
Russian assaults over the past month have been
jarring even for civilians now accustomed to
spending hours in bomb shelters and sleepless nights huddled in corridors. Thursday’s strikes
seemed to suggest that the campaign would
continue into June.
2 Andrew E. Kramer and Nicole Tung reported from Kyiv,
Ukraine, and Victoria Kim from Seoul. Marc Santora
contributed reporting from Kyiv, and Juston Jones and
Anushka Patil from New York. Dmitriy Khavin contributed a
translation.
