Considerando o fragmento do texto 3 “Ao mesmo tempo, a ênfase posta pelo autor na qualidade das
ferramentas de tradução automática parece, por enquanto, excessiva” e “De todo modo, é duvidoso

mais ou menos espontânea de uma língua franca” (linhas 13-18), de acordo com os Parâmetros
Curriculares Nacional da Língua Estrangeira, é correto afirmar que
“A prática secular no Brasil privilegia o estudo da língua pela língua, muita forma gramatical que se
enfeixa num colar de conhecimentos desaplicados, que se vão de nossa memória sem aviso prévio”

TEXT 8
“As far as practical conditions and educational relevance are concerned, virtually no major change has occurred in order to justify reframing our teaching. However, in what concerns social relevance, it is undeniable that the growth of the Internet has provided a new context for the use of the English language outside schools. For that reason, it is my belief that skills other than reading may now be taught in our classes without representing a return to a rationale that is alien to our schools. The teaching of writing in the context of Internet genres and practices is definitely necessary, if we want our students to have their own voice, becoming able to project their own local identities in global contexts.”

TEXT 7
“This, then, is the site of resistance, change, adaptation and reformulation. It is akin to what Canagarajah (1999) in his discussion of resistance to the global spread of English describes as a ‘resistance perspective’, highlighting the ways in which postcolonial subjects ‘may find ways to negotiate, alter and oppose political structures, and reconstruct their languages, cultures and identities to their advantage. The intention is not to reject English, but to reconstitute it in more inclusive, ethical and democratic terms.”

The sentence that best preserves the meaning of the following excerpt “The intention is not to reject English,
but to reconstitute it.” is:
TEXT 6
“Probably the best-known and most often cited dimension of the WE (World Englishes) paradigm is the model of concentric circles: the ‘norm-providing’ inner circle, where English is spoken as a native language (ENL), the ‘norm-developing’ outer circle, where it is a second language (ESL), and the ‘norm-dependent’ expanding circle, where it is a foreign language (EFL). Although only ‘tentatively labelled’ (Kachru, 1985, p.12) in earlier versions, it has been claimed more recently that ‘the circles model is valid in the senses of earlier historical and political contexts, the dynamic diachronic advance of English around the world, and the functions and standards to which its users relate English in its many current global incarnations’ (Kachru and Nelson, 1996, p. 78).”
PENNYCOOK, A. Global Englishes and Transcultural Flows. New York: Routledge, 2007, p. 21.
According to the text, it is possible to say that the “circles model” established by Kachru
TEXT 5
“In other words, there are those among us who argue that the future of English is dependent on the likelihood or otherwise of the U.S. continuing to play its hegemonic role in world affairs. Since that possibility seems uncertain to many, especially in view of the much-talked-of ascendancy of emergent economies, many are of the opinion that English will soon lose much of its current glitter and cease to be what it is today, namely a world language. And there are those amongst us who further speculate that, in fifty or a hundred years’ time, we will all have acquired fluency in, say, Mandarin, or, if we haven’t, will be longing to learn it. […] Consider the following argument: a language such as English can only be claimed to have attained an international status to the very extent it has ceased to be national, i.e., the exclusive property of this or that nation in particular (Widdowson). In other words, the U.K. or the U.S.A. or whosoever cannot have it both ways. If they do concede that English is today a world language, then it only behooves them to also recognize that it is not their exclusive property, as painful as this might indeed turn out to be. In other words, it is part of the price they have to pay for seeing their language elevated to the status of a world language. Now, the key word here is “elevated”. It is precisely in the process of getting elevated to a world status that English or what I insist on referring to as the “World English” goes through a process of metamorphosis.”

Ellipsis and substitution can be used as resources for avoiding repetition.
