O linguista Luiz Antônio Marcuschi, no artigo "Gêneros textuais: definição e funcionalidade", explica que os gêneros são formas presentes já em povos de cultura essencialmente oral, e passam a se multiplicar com o advento da escrita alfabética por volta do século 7 a.C. O célebre filósofo da linguagem Mikhail Bakhtin (1895-1975), diz que o ser humano só se comunica por meio de gêneros. Para o pensador russo, gêneros textuais definem-se principalmente por sua função social. São textos que se realizam por uma (ou mais de uma) razão determinada em uma situação comunicativa (um contexto) para promover uma interação específica. Trata-se de unidades definidas por seus conteúdos, suas propriedades funcionais, estilo e composição organizados em razão do objetivo que cumprem na situação comunicativa.
Sobre o trabalho com gêneros textuais é falso afirmar:
a) Ao interagirem por escrito no contexto escolar, os alunos precisam entender como a forma da língua, ou seja, a estrutura formal e as sequências linguísticas que compõem os vários gêneros textuais acadêmicos fornecem recursos para apresentar a informação e interagir com os outros. No entanto, a multiplicidade de gêneros textuais e a imprecisão quanto à sua classificação levam os aprendizes de LE a uma certa dificuldade para monitorar as habilidades comunicativas destinadas à compreensão e à produção de gêneros discursivos. Tais aprendizes devem ser capazes de controlar a linguagem, o propósito da escrita, o conteúdo e o contexto durante a produção de gêneros textuais que relatam experiências e fatos que expõem, que contam estórias, que contestam e questionam. O reconhecimento do conteúdo, da estrutura formal e das sequências linguísticas compõem as dimensões essenciais à elaboração de um gênero, contribuem para um maior planejamento e melhoria da produção textual escrita dos aprendizes.

“After leaving Southampton on 10 April 1912, Titanic called at Cherbourg in France and Queenstown (now Cobh) in Ireland before heading west to New York On 14 April, four days into the crossing and about 375 miles (600 km) south of Newfoundland, she hit an iceberg at 11:40p.m. ship's time. The collision caused the hull plates to buckle inwards along her starboard (right) side and opened five of her sixteen watertight compartments to the sea; she could only survive four flooding. Meanwhile, passengers and some crew members were evacuated in lifeboats, many of which were launched only partially loaded. A disproportionate number of men were left aboard because of a "women and children first" protocol for loading lifeboats. At 2:20 a.m., she broke apart and foundered with well over one thousand people still aboard. Just under two hours after Titanic sank, the Cunard liner RMS Carpathia arrived and brought aboard an estimated 705 survivors.”

Simple Steps to Improve Your English Reading Comprehension
1- Read the right books
If you dislike science fiction, you might not want to read a book about a man stuck on Mars. When you're choosing books (and other texts) to read, keep two things in mind:
1st. What you're interested in
2nd. Your reading level
Whenever you can, you should read things that you enjoy. You should also choose books that are at an English level just above the one you're most comfortable with. You want to challenge yourself just enough to learn new things, but not enough to get frustrated with your reading.
2. Ask yourself questions while reading and after reading
There's more to understanding a book than just reading the words!
There are a few things you can do before, during and after you read to help you better understand the text.
Before you read, browse the text. Take some time after you read too, to browse again and summarize what you remember. Try to quickly say or write a few sentences that describe what the text was all about.
Thinking about what you read will show you how much of it you really understood, and help you figure out if you still have questions.
