Transfer is a general term referring to the application of prior skills or knowledge to subsequent learning. While positive transfer benefits the learning task, “negative transfer” or “interference” disrupts learning. In language learning, the learner’s mother tongue is an obvious set of previous experiences, and a most common source of interference errors. Observe os pares de frases que seguem. A versão em português foi fornecida pela professora. A tradução foi feita por um dos estudantes. Nas traduções, observa-se a interferência do português.

Judge the following items about the text above.
The following suggestion can be considered an adequate translation of the first sentence of the second paragraph: Cada vez mais, análises históricas também ressaltam o conhecimento que foi, de maneiras diferentes, usurpado, negligenciado, abandonado ou eliminado na busca da ciência agrária “moderna”.
Cientistas procuraram avaliar o impacto que certas mudanças climáticas teriam no futuro próximo em cada região produtora de alimentos do globo — e, então, concluíram se as atividades econômicas hoje desenvolvidas ali estão em risco ou não. Na pesquisa, convencionou-se chamar de “ambiente climático seguro” aqueles onde ainda é viável desenvolver a produção de alimentos.

Judge whether the item below presents an adequate translation into English of the paragraph above.
Scientists tried to evaluate how certain climate changes would impact on each food-producing area of the Earth in the future, and then reached the conclusion that the actual economical activities of such areas are at risk. In its research, the term “safe climate environment” was given to those regions in which food production is still feasible.

Climate change poses significant challenges to cattle farming, a sector vital to global food security. Among the most pressing concerns is the increasing frequency and intensity of droughts. Reduced rainfall diminishes pasture quality and availability, limiting feed for livestock and increasing water scarcity. This can lead to decreased animal growth rates, reduced milk production, and increased mortality rates. Moreover, prolonged droughts can contribute to desertification, shrinking available grazing land and forcing farmers to adopt costly alternative feeding strategies.
Beyond drought, other climate-related impacts include heat stress, which can significantly impact animal health and productivity. Rising temperatures can exacerbate heat stress, leading to decreased feed intake, reduced fertility, and increased mortality in livestock. Furthermore, extreme weather events, such as heavy rainfall and flooding, can cause infrastructure damage, contaminate water sources, and lead to the loss of livestock.
The cattle farming sector itself contributes to climate change through greenhouse gas emissions, primarily methane produced during animal digestion and nitrous oxide from manure management. Deforestation for pasture expansion also releases significant amounts of carbon dioxide.
To address these challenges, a multi-pronged approach is crucial.
• Genetic selection: Breeding programs focused on developing drought-resistant livestock breeds are vital. and heat-tolerant
• Sustainable feeding strategies: Implementing precision feeding techniques, improving feed efficiency, and exploring alternative drought-resistant forage livestock resilience. feed sources, varieties, such as can enhance
• Integrated farming systems: Integrating crop and livestock production, such as through agroforestry systems, can improve soil health, enhance water retention, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
• Technological innovations: Utilizing technologies
such as precision livestock farming, remote sensing for
pasture monitoring, and renewable energy sources can
improve resource efficiency and reduce the
environmental footprint of cattle production.
Furthermore, strong policy support, including incentives for sustainable farming practices, investments in research and development, and improved access to climate information services, are essential for the long-term sustainability of the cattle farming sector.
Addressing the challenges posed by climate change requires a collaborative effort involving farmers, researchers, policymakers, and consumers. By embracing innovative solutions, prioritizing sustainable practices, and fostering a collective understanding of the importance of climate-resilient livestock production, we can ensure a future when this vital sector continues to thrive while minimizing its environmental impact.
