Q4338934 Inglês
During a classroom activity, children work with the expressions "one orange," "two orange fish," "three brown chickens," and "four green apples." The teacher uses the combinations to explore how familiar English words may express different meanings depending on the words that accompany them.
Considering the vocabulary and semantic relations in the expressions, mark T, for true, and F, for false.

(__)In "one orange," "orange" functions as a noun referring to a fruit, whereas in "two orange fish," it identifies a color.
(__)In "three brown chickens," "three" is an ordinal numeral indicating the position of the chickens in a sequence.
(__)The word "chicken" may refer to an animal or to food in English, and its intended meaning depends on the communicative context.
(__)In "four green apples," "green" expresses quantity and "four" identifies a characteristic of the apples.



After analysis, select the alternative that presents the CORRECT sequence of the items above, from top to bottom.

The Best Fast Food Fried Chicken Chain in America Is Dropping 2 New Menu Items


When it comes to fast food, it's no secret that French fries are a critical (and contentious) menu item for almost every major chain. Whether it's Arby's curly fries, Chick-fil-A's signature waffle-cut fries, or Taco Bell's Nacho Fries with its signature Tex-Mex flair, most fast food restaurants have their own way of zhuzhing up the humble potato. Now, another fan-loved chain is branching out beyond the simple spud and dropping two new iterations of the iconic menu item, and we can't wait to try them.

Jollibee Just Debuted New Flavored French Fries

After maintaining its title as USA Today's 'Best Fast-Food Fried Chicken in America' for the third consecutive year, Jollibee is introducing two new menu items for a limited time, and it looks like the chain is already vying for the top spot in 2027. While classic fries are a fast food staple, flavored fries have emerged across the food scene, including the McShaker Fries from the Golden Arches and Wendy's Shaker Fries. Now, Jollibee is entering the chat with new Jolly Flavor Fries, bringing two fan-favorite potato flavors to the chain's signature spud. 

Jollibee Cheesy Cheddar and Sour Cream & Onion Fries on a teal and yellow background

Inspired by fan-favorite potato chip flavors, Jollibee is upgrading its signature Jolly Crispy Fries by tossing the taters in two new, made-to-order varieties. First up are the Cheesy Cheddar fries, which feature a rich cheddar-flavored seasoning perfect for anyone who enjoys cheese and chips, melted cheese on a baked potato, or my go-to Cheddar & Sour Cream Ruffles.

Jollibee is also channeling another beloved savory potato chip with the Sour Cream & Onion Jolly Crispy Fries, which are tossed in a savory sour cream and onion seasoning.

Each order of Jolly Crispy Fries comes in a custom mini-bucket without a lid, making it easy to grab and snack on the go. The fries are available à la carte starting at $4.49, or you can try them as part of a combo upgrade for a small upcharge.

Jolly Flavor Fries are only available through Oct. 13, so if you want to try Jollibee's newest iteration of the fast food favorite, you may want to head to your local restaurant sooner rather than later. And, while you're there, you may as well grab some Jollibee chicken and see if it really lives up to the national hype.

The world cup debutants determined to prove nothing is impossible



    When the 2026 FIFA World Cup kicks off on June 11 in Mexico City, it will set in motion a flurry of historic firsts.

    A newly expanded 48-team tournament, three countries: the US, Canada and Mexico as hosts and we’ll also get to see four debutants in the shape of Curaçao, Jordan, Uzbekistan and Cape Verde.

    It was in October of last year that Cape Verde, the African archipelago nation — with a population of just over half a million people — qualified for its first ever World Cup after beating Eswatini 3-0 to become the third-smallest country after Curaçao and Iceland eight years ago to make it through to football’s biggest stage.

    It was a feat made even more impressive by the fact the Blue Sharks ended up four points ahead of traditional continental powerhouse Cameroon, topping their Confederation of African Football qualifying group in the process.

    It’s no wonder the team’s head coach Pedro Leitão Brito — better known as Bubista — was beaming with pride when he dropped by the CNN studios in Atlanta recently as part of a visit to Mercedes-Benz stadium, where Cape Verde will begin their World Cup campaign on June 15 against the 2010 winners and reigning European champions, Spain.

    “We are so excited. I think the people are so excited and we’re going to do our best for our people,” Bubista — a distinguished former captain and defender on the national team — told CNN Sports.

    Bubista oversaw a truly history-making qualifying campaign. A sequence of results that included a highly impressive five straight wins, the highlight of which featured a never-to-be-forgotten 1-0 triumph over the Cameroonians in September 2025.

    But it’s October 13, 2025, that will be indelibly etched into the memory of all who witnessed Cape Verde’s historic win against Eswatini. A victory that would spark frenzied celebrations of joy in the country’s capital city Praia.

    “Our people are so excited and so happy. Our people in the world, it’s just so great for our qualification and now our people are so grateful for everything,” Bubista added.

    Cape Verde may be about to play in a first ever World Cup, but the national team is no stranger to success when it comes to competing in the Africa Cup of Nations having reached the quarterfinals in 2013 and then again, a decade later. Bubista oversaw the latter campaign but now the head coach’s focus is fully on his team’s tournament opener against Spain.

    “We know it’s a very difficult match … They have very good players. We will respect them but anything is possible. We’re going to do our best to show the world what we can do in football,” Bubista reflected.

    “We know it’s a hard game, but we have our heart and team spirit and this is important for us. Our unity is our strength,” he added.

    The Blue Sharks will arrive in the US with a talented squad including Villarreal’s Logan Costa, Paris Saint-Germain 18-year-old Fabio Domingos and 36-year-old Ryan Mendes, who is the country’s most-capped player — with more than 90 appearances for the national team — and is Cape Verde’s all-time leading goalscorer.

    And then there’s the remarkable story of the Shamrock Rovers forward Roberto “Pico” Lopes who was born in Ireland, but when it comes to international football, represents Cape Verde, currently ranked 69th in the world. 

    Lopes had always wanted to play for Ireland but when that didn’t materialize, he ended up playing for his father’shomeland after famously being recruited through a LinkedIn message from then-team head coach Rui Águas. Initially Lopes ignored the first message sent in Portuguese as spam but not the second one sent a few months later in English.

Leia o texto a seguir para responder à questão:

        A number of researchers have studied conversations between speakers of English as a Lingua Franca and have noted a number of somewhat surprising characteristics, including:

        •  Use of an all-purpose tag question such as isn’t it? (They should arrive soon, isn’t it?)

        •  Increasing of redundancy by adding prepositions {We have to study about… and Can we discuss about…)

        •  Pluralisation of nouns which are considered uncountable in native-speaker English. (informations, staffs)

        The evidence suggests that non-native speakers are not conforming to a native English standard. Truly, they seem to get along perfectly well despite the fact that they miss things out and put things in which ‘they should not do’.

The Ringmaster's Advice

        People say, "any publicity is good publicity" allthe time. It's become a modern truism. But people don't seem to give much thought to where it came from.

        While there is no proof that he used exactly those words, the quote is widely attributed to showman P.T. Barnum. I think it's safe to say that even if he never said "any publicity is good publicity," it describes his lived ethos.
    
        P.T. Barnum was the founder of the Barnum & Bailey Circus, billed as "The Greatest Show on Earth." He advertised fake mermaids and a woman who claimed to be George Washington's 161-year-old nurse. Barnum's traveling shows featured midgets, Siamese twins, bearded ladies, and even "Jo-Jo the Dog-Faced Boy."

        There's no record of him saying these exact words either, but he is also widely credited with the quote, "there's a sucker born every minute."

        P.T. Barnum did describe himself as the "Prince of Humbug," proudly owning his reputation for hoaxes and "harmless" deceptions.

        Barnum was an interesting character, but he's not a man we should be encouraging other men, especially young men, to emulate. Unfortunately, his ethos is more or less what social media has been teaching kids for the past ten years.

        And at the same time, everyone complains that everything is "fake and ghey."

        Well... if you follow the ringmaster's advice, don't be surprised when you end up living in a circus.

in the phrase it describes his lived ethos, the word ethos is an uncountable noun. With this in mind, mark True (T) or False (F):
( ) The word ethos is uncountable because it refers to the guiding spirit, values, or character of a person, group, or culture.
( ) The word ethos names a general, continuous quality (a way of thinking/behaving).
( ) In the text, you could say two ethoses because it reÍers to an overarching spirit or attitude that applies to many people.
( ) The use of ethos is functional when the writer wants to talk about individual instances.
