Polar ice is melting and changing Earth’s rotation. It’s messing with time itself
One day in the next couple of years, everyone in the world will lose a second of their time. Exactly when that will happen is being influenced by humans, according to a new study, as melting polar ice alters the Earth’s rotation and changes time itself.
The hours and minutes that dictate our days are determined by Earth’s rotation. But that rotation is not constant; it can change ever so slightly, depending on what’s happening on Earth’s surface and in its molten core.
These nearly imperceptible changes occasionally mean the world’s clocks need to be adjusted by a “leap second,” which may sound tiny but can have a big impact on computing systems.
Plenty of seconds have been added over the years. But after a long trend of slowing, the Earth’s rotation is now speeding up because of changes in its core. For the first time ever, a second will need to be taken off.
“A negative leap second has never been added or tested, so the problems it could create are without precedent,” Patrizia Tavella, a member of the Time Department at the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in France, wrote in an article accompanying the study.
But exactly when this will happen is being influenced by global warming, according to the study published Wednesday in the journal Nature. Melting polar ice is delaying the leap second by three years, pushing it from 2026 to 2029, the report found.
“Part of figuring out what is going to happen in global timekeeping … is dependent on understanding what is happening with the global warming effect,” said Duncan Agnew, professor of geophysics at the University of California San Diego and the study’s author.

In today’s digital era where screens and keyboards dominate, we often underestimate the importance of handwriting.
Experts say that handwriting plays a key role in cognitive development, memory retention, and academic performance. Why should children continue to practice writing? A study published in the National Library of Medicine discovered that handwriting contributes to functional brain development. Writing letters and words is particularly beneficial for young children’s brains compared to other forms of sensorimotor practice. Moreover, legible handwriting can lead to better grades, regardless of the content. According to Krista Griffin, a professor of elementary education, writing helps in the connection between letters and sounds for children. Therefore, opting for pencil and paper over typing on a phone could be advantageous.

A total solar eclipse passed over North America on
Monday, putting on a dramatic show that was visible to
millions of people.
A total solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes
between Earth and the sun, completely blocking the sun's
face. Those within the path of totality, including 32 million
people in the United States, saw the eclipse in its full
splendor. People outside the path were still able to see a
partial solar eclipse, where the moon blocks only part of
the sun's face.
Many people traveled to the path of totality to attend
special viewing parties. Those along the very center line of the path saw an eclipse that lasted between 3 and half
and 4 minutes, according to NASA.
For many Americans, this was the last chance to see a
total solar eclipse for 20 years. The next one won't be
visible across the contiguous United States until August
2044.

Reported speech is how we represent the speech of other people or what we ourselves say. There are some principles of reported speech, which are: (I) Reported speech is a way to convey what someone said; (II) Reported speech often changes verbs and pronouns; (III) Reported speech often uses a tense further back in the past; and, (IV) Reported speech changes questions into statements. Also, it is worth mentioning that there are two main types of reported speech: direct speech and indirect speech. The main difference between direct and indirect speech is that direct speech uses the exact words spoken by someone, while indirect speech reports what someone said without using their exact words. With that in mind, check the alternative which sentence represents the correct form of the reported speech (indirect speech) from the example provided below (direct speech):

Total Physical Response (TPR) is a teaching method
that uses physical movement to help students learn
language and vocabulary. It is a method of teaching
language or vocabulary concepts by using physical
movement to react to verbal input. The process mimics
the way that infants learn their first language, and it reduces student inhibitions and lowers stress. In TPR,
instructors give commands to students in the target
language with body movements, and students respond
with whole-body actions. Total Physical Response is
particularly useful for, but not limited to, teaching
beginners and, or younger students and is highly
effective for teaching imperative-based languages,
where the commands are easily expressed through
actions. Having that said, check the alternative, whose
statement is not associated with the one of the core
principles of TPR.

Q3010801
Inglês
The way we use language depends on factors such as the
situation we are in (at a friend’s house, in a job
interview, in a tutorial); who we are talking to (friends,
potential employer, tutor); and our means of
communication (conversation face to face, telephone,
email, report). Our decisions about the way we use
language are to a great extent unconscious ones: we
instinctively know how to adapt our language to the
situation. For example, there are a number of differences
between spoken and written language. This being so, we
can characterize spoken language as quite informal,
colloquial and presumably unstructured (since it is often
spontaneous). Furthermore, spoken language mostly
takes place in the form of a dialogue with another
speaker. Written language, on the other hand, is
generally more structured, formal, impersonal and
wordy. Also, written language is considered more
formal and should follow the rules of the English
language. Spoken language is generally less formal, and
the rules are less important. Slang, an informal language
understood only by certain groups, is acceptable in
spoken language but not in written language. That said,
read the statements that follow, then check ( T ) for
TRUE and ( F ) for FALSE while indicating the correct
answer (by also checking it).
( )Written English is more complex grammatically than spoken English, with longer and more complex sentences, fewer contractions, and more subordinate clauses.
( ) Spoken English is more likely to be face-to-face communication, while written English is more likely to be communication through the written word.
( ) Spoken English is more fixed and stable than written English, which is more fleeting.
( ) Spoken English is usually more organized and carefully formulated than written English.
( ) Written English is typically more structured and forms a monologue rather than a dialogue, while spoken English is more likely to be a dialogue.
( ) Written English communicates across time and space for as long as the medium exists and the language is understood. Spoken English is more immediate.
( ) Spoken English normally uses a generally acceptable standard variety of the language, whereas written English may sometimes be in a regional or other limited-context dialect.
( ) In Spoken English, the content is presented much more densely. In written English, the information is “diluted” and conveyed through many more words: there are a lot of repetitions, glosses, “fillers”, producing a text is noticeably longer and with more redundant passages.

Active methodologies are teaching methods that place
students as the main characters in their learning process.
The main aim of active methodologies is to train
students and teachers with the competencies and skills
of the future, which are: argumentation, digital culture,
good communication, critical thinking, responsibility,
cooperation, and much more. Active methodologies are
the basis for creating more open learning environments,
with interactivity and cooperation between students. It
is the transformation of education, which motivates and
engages students, reduces dropout rates and failures,
and improves the experience as a whole. Also, studies
have shown that these methodologies improve grades
and help students develop emotional intelligence
beyond the basic curriculum. That being said, having in
mind the fundamentals and principles of the most
known active methodologies, match the second column
according to the information provided in the first one,
then check the correct answer.
( A ) Flipped classroom. ( B ) Project-based learning. ( C ) Case studies. ( D ) Peer teaching. ( E ) Gamification. ( F ) Inquiry-based learning.
( ) Students learn from each other through pairing and sharing learning objectives. It is an effective way to encourage collaboration and communication, and can help students retain information.
( ) It involves the use of game elements in non-game situations to increase motivation and learning. It can also be used in the classroom to increase student engagement, motivation, and knowledge retention while helping them to develop a positive attitude towards learning.
( )Students find solutions to problems mainly by themselves, and then present their findings to the class. It is an active approach that encourages students to become self-directed learners. It also emphasizes contextual and experiential approaches to learning.
( ) Students apply their knowledge to real-world problems, often open-ended. They also work on projects over an extended period of time – from a week up to a semester – that engage them in answering a complex question.
( ) Students are placed in an active learning role, promoting research, problem-solving, and highlevel cognitive skills. It challenges students to think critically and creatively to develop solutions.
( ) It focuses on problem solving and learning activities in the classroom, while content transmission happens outside of the classroom. Students learn content at home through readings, videos, or other activities before class. In class, students participate in activities like practice, application exercises, discussions, and team-based learning.
