Teaching a child to read
Imagery first: the colors primary
Familiar as the sun; the purpose sure –
To hear, to smell, to feel, to taste, to see.
The mind will enter by another door.
The verb is next: we are the rain that falls,
The frog that sees a cricket as it leaps,
The robin that flaps its wings and calls,
The fish that swims, the animal that creeps.
The third is narrative, the moving spell
Of syntax that ad-libs the myths of time.
Alas, we learn before the wishing well
Has dried how words become a hill to climb.
The fourth is symbol: goodness, beauty, love.
This is the time of quarrel, tears and pain.
Sowing the dragons’ teeth, we bob and weave
Until we bring the simple back again.

What is English as a Lingua Franca?
‘English’, as a language, has for some time been seen as a
global phenomenon and, therefore, as no longer defined by fixed
territorial, cultural and social functions. At the same time, people
using English around the world have been shaping it and adapting
it to their contexts of use and have made it relevant to their
socio-cultural settings. English as a Lingua Franca, or ELF for
short, is a field of research interest that was born out of this
tension between the global and the local, and it originally began
as a ramification of the World Englishes framework in order to
address the international, or, rather, transnational perspective on
English in the world. The field of ELF very quickly took on a nature
of its own in its attempt to address the communication, attitudes,
ideologies in transnational contexts, which go beyond the
national categorisations of World Englishes (such as descriptions
of Nigerian English, Malaysian English and other national
varieties). ELF research, therefore, has built on World Englishes
research by focusing on the diversity of English, albeit from more
transnational, intercultural and multilingual perspectives.
ELF is an intercultural medium of communication used among people from different socio-cultural and linguistic backgrounds,
and usually among people from different first languages.
Although it is possible that many people who use ELF have learnt
it formally as a foreign language, at school or in an educational
institution, the emphasis is on using rather than on learning. And
this is a fundamental difference between ELF and English as a
Foreign Language, or EFL, whereby people learn English to
assimilate to or emulate native speakers. In ELF, instead, speakers
are considered language users in their own right, and not failed
native speakers or deficient learners of English. Some examples
of typical ELF contexts may include communication among a
group of neuroscientists, from, say, Belgium, Brazil and Russia, at
an international conference on neuroscience, discussing their
work in English, or an international call concerning a business
project between Chinese and German business experts, or a
group of migrants from Syria, Ethiopia and Iraq discussing their
migration documents and requirements in English. The use of
English will of course depend on the linguistic profile of the
participants in these contexts, and they may have another
common language at their disposal (other than English), but
today ELF is the most common medium of intercultural
communication, especially in transnational contexts.
So, research in ELF pertains to roughly the same area of
research as English as a contact language and English
sociolinguistics. However, the initial impetus to conducting
research in ELF originated from a pedagogical rationale – it
seemed irrelevant and unrealistic to expect learners of English
around the world to conform to native norms, British or
American, or even to new English national varieties, which would
be only suitable to certain socio-cultural and geographical
locations. So, people from Brazil, France, Russia, Mozambique, or
others around the world, would not need to acquire the norms
originated and relevant to British or American English speakers,
but could orientate themselves towards more appropriate and
relevant ways of using English, or ELF. Researchers called for
“closing a conceptual gap” between descriptions of native English
varieties and new empirical and analytical approaches to English
in the world. With the compilation of a number of corpora, ELF
empirical research started to explore how English is developing,
emerging and changing in its international uses around the world.
Since the empirical corpus work started, research has expanded
beyond the pedagogical aim, to include explorations of
communication in different domains of expertise (professional,
academic, etc.) and in relation to other concepts and research,
such as culture, ideology and identity.

O texto seguinte servirá de base para responder a questão.
(1º§) Arthritis and osteoporosis are long-term conditions
that affect your bones. Arthritis causes swelling and
inflammation. Osteoporosis develops as a result of
decreased bone mass and density, and can lead to
fractures.
(2º§) Jane Atkinson looks at ways to keep your bones
and joints healthy. Regular, low-impact exercise can help
in the battle against joint pain. Nuffield Health has
launched a free joint pain programme to help sufferers
lead a more independent life - and you don't even need
to be a paying member of the gym to join up. As well as
exercises, it offers lifestyle tips and uses relaxation
techniques to try to help with pain so those affected can
sleep.
(3º§) The programme, which lasts six months, has
proven results. Of those who completed it, 69 per cent
say they have improvements in mobility, pain, general
fitness levels and overall quality of life. Among
participants who were in such pain they couldn't work, 30
per cent were able to return after week 12. Working out
what supplements you need and how much you need is
not always easy.
(4º§) Osteo Complete is a bone health complex that
includes calcium, vitamin D3, zinc, boron and copper.
These elements work together to help maintain your
musculoskeletal system, which supports the body and its
movements. Vitamin D3 is crucial for the absorption of
calcium. The minerals magnesium and zinc contribute to
normal protein synthesis, while copper helps maintain
connective tissues.
(5º§) These very tasty vanilla-flavoured tablets are a
good alternative for people who do not like swallowing
pills as you can chew them. 240 chewable tablets,
£18.95, healthspan.co.uk.
(6º§) The world has gone mad for collagen. There are
different types, but for bone health the best is Type I. It
provides structure to your skin, bones, tendons and
ligaments. The change is not instant. Take it regularly
and it could take a year to achieve the full results, but if
you are persistent it does work. I like Correxiko Marine
Collagen Type I. It comes from the skin of deep-sea fish,
caught off the coast of Canada.
(7º§) It is an unflavoured powder that you bung in water
or a coffee. Lisa Snowdon says her menopausal and
age-related aches and pains have gone since she started
using it. £39.95 for a 42-day supply, correxiko.com.

Text 2 – Computers
(Text adapted from History of Computing. Retrieved from
https://www.cs.utexas.edu/~mitra/csFall2006/cs 303/lectures/history.html)
When you hear the term computers, it’s difficult to
imagine different devices from a laptop or a small
desktop. Believe it or not, they weren’t always like
they are today. They used to be very large and
heavy, sometimes as big as an entire room. Some
technology professors historically define computers,
as “a device that can help with computations”. The
word computation involves counting, calculating,
adding, subtracting, etc. The modern definition of a
computer is a little wider, because in our day and
age, computers store, compile, analyze and
compute an enormous amount of information.
Ancient computers were very interesting. Actually,
the first computer may have been located in Great
Britain, at Stonehenge. It is a man-made circle of
large stones. Citizens used it to measure the
weather and forecast the change of seasons. Some
specialists say that another ancient computer is the
abacus. It was used by the early Romans, Greeks,
and Egyptians to count and calculate. Even though
they are no longer in use, certainly, these early
devices are fascinating. Computers are embedded
in our history and some people say that we are
completely dependent of them. No matter the
complexity of the task, easy or difficult, some people
can’t do anything without them. Do you contest or
share this opinion?
The formation-ing in "Computing involves
counting a lot of data" is correct. Check the
alternative that explains the -ing formation of
'counting'.

Why Easter is bad for ducks
On Christmas Eve, two Pekin ducks were found
frozen to a pond in Smithville, Ohio. They flapped their
wings and squawked, fruitlessly struggling to free
themselves until two locals, Maiara and Helder Bertolucci,
spotted them. The pair slid on their stomachs over razor-thin
ice and chiseled the animals free.
The rescued ducks—later named Olaf and Elsa, after
characters from Disney’s Frozen—were two of 109 domestic
ducks abandoned in a pond outside of a restaurant. A local
group ________ Good Sprout Rescue and Sanctuary rescued
the animals; two died, but the rest were rehomed to
sanctuaries or adopted. Every spring, the Barn Restaurant
would buy a hundred new babies for its patrons to enjoy—
but since this incident they’ve __________ not to do so
again.
Every year in springtime, particularly at Easter,
many people “impulse buy” ducklings as gifts, often for their
kids. But after the holiday, sometimes months later, animal
rescuers routinely see an uptick in abandoned adult ducks in
local parks and ponds, Di Leonardo says. There’s no
________ data on how often this happens, but he estimates
tens of thousands of domestic ducks are dumped each year
throughout the U.S. His organization rescues as many as 500
ducks per year in the New York City area alone.
