I) Conceber o letramento em língua inglesa a partir da interação com uma língua estrangeira demanda experimentar essa língua por meio de práticas sociais que integrem as habilidades (leitura, escrita, compreensão e produção oral) de forma que o aluno se constitua como enunciador na nova língua sem perder sua inscrição discursiva na língua materna. Ao nos situarmos nesse âmbito teórico, entendemos o processo de ensino-aprendizagem como uma troca linguística em que o indivíduo social fala de si para se constituir numa língua outra, expressando percepções, sua visão de mundo e inscrições ideológicas, balizadas pelo conflito/confronto de culturas e práticas discursivas.
II) De acordo com a teoria bakhtiniana, a língua não se transmite, ela dura e perdura sob a forma de um processo evolutivo contínuo. Os indivíduos não recebem a língua pronta para ser usada, eles adentram na corrente da comunicação verbal, ou melhor, apenas quando imergem nessa corrente é que sua consciência desperta e começa a atuar. É apenas no processo de aquisição de uma língua estrangeira que a consciência já constituída (devido à língua materna) se confronta com uma língua pronta, que só lhe resta assimilar.
III) Uma interação verbal se processa enquanto um ato de linguagem em que os indivíduos sociais entrecruzam seus mundos possíveis, balizados pela ótica de um processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Nessa ótica se incluem referências linguísticas de diferentes níveis de interlíngua, referências sociais de diferentes ethé de linguagem, referências patêmicas de diferentes hierarquias culturais, referências filosóficas de diferentes campos e visões de conhecimentos, entre outros fatores. Isso nos remete a uma compreensão desse ato de linguagem não como atos responsáveis e sim voluntários.

Zeichner and Liston (1996) differentiate between five different levels at which reflection can take place during teaching. Choose the right sequence of those levels:
The world has changed a lot since the last decades of the 19th century: with the invention of the automobile, place have become closer and man has traveled farther.
In the 20th century, automobiles brought deep changes to the cities. Cars crowded the streets and took the place of the old carriages.
The 50’s and the 60’s represented the greatest days of the automobile. But an oil crisis occurred during the 70’s. Gasoline became more expensive. Large automobile companies worried about it and began to work on the ‘car of the future’.
Cars in the future will be more economical, lighter, and smaller than they are today. They will use different forms of energy: electric, solar, and many others. These new forms of energy will cause less pollution than gasoline and will be cheaper.
Analyze the sentences according to grammar use.
… place have become closer and man has traveled farther. Gasoline became more expensive. Cars in the future will be more economical, lighter, and smaller than they are today.

Not Long Ago people believed that in the future we would work less, have more free time, and be more relaxed. But sadly this has not happened. Today we work harder, work longer hours, and are more stressed than ten years ago. We walk faster, talk faster, and sleep less than previous generations. And although we are obsessed with machines which save us time, we have less free time than our parents and grandparents had. But what is this doing to our health? An American journalist James Gleick in a new book, Faster: the Acceleration of just about everything, says that people who live in cities are suffering from 'hurry sickness'- we are always trying to do more things in less time. As a result, our lives are more stressful. He says that if we don't slow down, we won't live as long as our parents. For most people, faster doesn't mean better.
No time for the news
Newspaper articles today are shorter and the headlines are bigger. Most people don't have enough time to read the articles, they only read the headlines! On TV and the radio, newsreaders speak more quickly than ten years ago.
No time for stories
In the USA there is a book called One-Minute Bedtime Stories for children. These are shorter versions of traditional stories, specially written for 'busy parents' who want to save time!
No time to listen
Some answerphones now have 'quick playback' buttons so that we can re-play people's messages faster - we can't waste time listening to people speaking at normal speed!
No time to relax
Even when we relax we do everything more quickly. Ten years ago when people went to art galleries they spent ten seconds looking at each picture. Today they spend just three seconds!
No time for slow sports
In the USA the national sport, baseball, is not as popular as before because it is a slow game and matches take a long time. Nowadays many people prefer faster and more dynamic sports like basketball.
…but more time in our cars
The only thing that is slower than before is the way we drive. Our cars are faster but the traffic is worse so we drive more slowly. We spend more time sitting in our cars, feeling stressed because we are worried that we won't arrive on time. Experts predict that in ten years' time the average speed on the road in cities will be 17 km/h.

When is it time to stop studying?
It's 10 p.m. and six government employees are out checking the streets of Seoul, South Korea. But these are not police officers searching for teenagers who are behaving badly. Their mission is to find children who are still studying. And stop them. Education in South Korea is very competitive. The aim of almost every schoolchild is to get into one of the country’s top universities. Only the students with the best grades get a place. The school day starts at 8 a.m. and the students finish studying somewhere between 10 p.m. and 1 a.m. at night. This is because many go to private academies called hagwon after school. Around 74 percent of all students attend a hagwon after their regular classes finish. A year’s course costs, on average, $2,600 per student. In Seoul, there are more private tutors than schoolteachers, and the most popular ones make millions of dollars a year from online and in-person classes. Most parents rely on private tutoring to get their children into a university. With so much time spent in the classroom, all that students in South Korean high schools do is study and sleep. Some of them are so exhausted that they cannot stay awake the next day at school. It is a common sight to see a teacher explaining the lesson while a third of the students are asleep on their desks. The teachers don’t seem to mind. There are even special pillows for sale that fit over the arms of the chairs to make sleeping in class more comfortable. Ironically, the students spend class time sleeping so that they can stay up late studying that night. The South Korean government has been aware of the faults in the system for some time, but now they have passed some reforms. Today, schoolteachers have to meet certain standards or take additional training courses. However, the biggest challenge for the government is the hagwons. Hagwons have been banned from having classes after 10 p.m., which is why there are street patrols searching for children who are studying after that time. If they find any in class, the owner of the hagwon is punished and the students are sent home. It's a strange world, where some children have to be told to stop studying while others are reluctant to start. Adapted from: LATHAM-KOENIG, Christina & OXENDEN, Clive. American English File 3 - Workbook. 2"“ edition. Oxford: OUP, 2014.
In the sentence “However, the biggest challenge for the government is the hagwons.” (last paragraph), the word HOWEVER could be correctly replaced in this context, without change of meaning, by:
