Which option best completes the paragraph below?
As with the Anglo-Saxon and Norman settlers of centuries past, the languages spoken by today’s ethnic communities have begun to have an impact on the everyday spoken English of other communities. For instance, many young people, regardless of _________ ethnic background, now use the black slang terms, nang (‘cool,’) and diss (‘insult’ — from ‘disrespecting’) or words derived from Hindi and Urdu, such as chuddies (‘underpants’) or desi (‘typically Asian’). Many also use the all-purpose tag-question, innit — as in statements such as you’re weird, innit. This feature has been variously ascribed to the British Caribbean community or the British Asian community, although it is also part of a more native British tradition - in dialects in the West Country and Wales, for instance — which might explain why it appears to have spread so rapidly among young speakers everywhere.

Supreme Court Appears Ready to Let Trump End DACA Program
The justices are considering whether the Trump administration can shut down a program that shields about 700,000 young immigrants from deportation.

WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court’s conservative majority on Tuesday appeared ready to side with the Trump administration in its efforts to shut down a program protecting about 700,000 young immigrants known as “Dreamers.”
The court’s liberal justices probed the administration’s justifications for ending the program, expressing skepticism about its rationales for doing so. But other justices indicated that they would not second-guess the administration’s reasoning and, in any event, considered its explanations sufficient.

THREATS AND PROMISES IN BRAZIL’S LAWLESS AMAZON
1-NOVO PROGRESSO, BRAZIL — In early August, Adecio Piran wrote an article for this Amazon town’s news website announcing a “Day of Fire,” to be started on August 10. The post suggested a coordinated criminal effort among local landowners and cattle ranchers to burn newly cleared rainforest — much of it on public land. The unnamed organizers of the collective action, Mr. Piran wrote, wanted to draw the attention of President Jair Bolsonaro.
2-“Because of the larger deforestation rate in this area, people were saying they had to burn fires at the same time to get the attention of the president,” Mr. Piran said, “to show there are producers here who want to push ahead with cattle, with the land and be productive in the region.”
3-But days later, as smoke and fires across the Amazon caught the world’s attention, bringing international outrage and condemnation of Mr. Bolsonaro’s gutting of Brazil’s environmental protections, Mr. Piran said he was threatened and told to take his article down from the Folha do Progresso news site. When Mr. Piran refused, he received death threats. He temporarily fled town and sought protection from the police.
4-In September, I traveled to this dusty frontier town with a film crew for The Dispatch to look into the so-called Day of Fire and to meet with rural producers who appeared to brazenly flout Brazil’s environmental laws.
5-This year, the nearby Jamanxim National Forest, a federally protected rainforest larger than the size of Puerto Rico, lost 45 square miles of forest cover, the worst deforestation among all protected lands in the Brazilian Amazon. Brazilian satellites confirm much of that cleared land was set ablaze on August 10.
6-By the time I arrived to Novo Progresso in early September, Brazil’s independent Public Ministry had announced a federal investigation into a possible criminal conspiracy to burn fires, and rural landowners and ranchers were denying the Day of Fire ever happened. Novo Progresso’s civil police had already concluded it was a mere coincidence in timing.

Maicon acorda às 6h30min, vai ao banheiro, escova os dentes com Close up, se arruma, toma café e sai para o trabalho. Ao chegar, cumprimenta seus amigos, vai para sua sala, liga seu notebook e verifica se mouse está funcionando. Logo em seguida, conecta-se à web e olha sua caixa de e-mail. Então, dá início ao expediente. Depois de um tempo, é hora do almoço e decide variar o cardápio: hoje não vai ao restaurante de self-service. Assim, se dirige a um pit dog perto de seu escritório. É um trailer de fast food que serve sanduíches; para acompanhar, pede uma Pepsi light. Terminada a refeição, Maicon decide ouvir um pouco de música que ele salvou em um pen drive. Então, vai até o carro – uma SUV 2020, recém adquirida -, para uma sessão do melhor rock n’ roll. Logo percebe que está na hora de voltar ao trabalho. No caminho, passa por um outdoor e nota que uma loja de um dos shoppings da cidade está anunciando jeans a um preço muito bom. Decide ligar para a esposa, Jenifer, e contar a novidade. Ela diz que já havia visto e achado tudo muito fashion, mas muito caro. Um pouco depois, ele chega ao serviço para a segunda parte do expediente. Ele trabalha com marketing. Por volta das 4h30min, já é hora do coffee break. Maicon vai ao Barranco’s bar, uma lanchonete, e pede um hot dog com muito ketchup. O rapaz encontra um amigo tomando Red Bull, mas decide não a fazer o mesmo, pois ficaria muito agitado. Terminado o dia de serviço, volta para casa, encontra sua esposa preparando o jantar, a cumprimenta e vai tomar banho. Fica irritado, pois o shampoo mal deu para lavar o cabelo. Depois, assistem o Big Brother na TV e seu filho mais novo pede para jogar videogame em seu Playstation, mas Maicon diz que já está tarde para jogar. Jenifer muda de canal e eles percebem que está passando um show ao vivo com os hits da sua banda gospel favorita. Mas, infelizmente, já é hora de ir dormir porque no dia seguinte a jornada recomeça.
