TEXTO III
Song by Miley Cyrus
We were good, we were gold
Kinda dream that can't be sold
We were right 'til we weren't
Built a home and watched it burn
I didn't wanna leave you
I didn't wanna lie
Started to cry but then remembered
I can buy myself flowers
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours
Say things you don't understand
I can take myself dancing
And I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than you can
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby (2x)
In the lyrics, which of the following nouns
is used as a metaphor for a past relationship
that has ended?

The Importance of Didactics and
Methodology in English Language Teaching
Teaching English involves much more than explaining grammar rules or asking students to memorize vocabulary. Effective English language teaching requires careful planning, appropriate teaching methods, and an understanding of how students learn.
Didactics refers to the principles and strategies that guide the teaching and learning process. It helps teachers organize lessons, define learning objectives, choose suitable materials, and evaluate students’ progress. Good didactics creates a positive learning environment where students feel motivated to participate and develop their language skills.
Methodology, on the other hand, focuses on the methods and approaches used in the classroom. Throughout history, different methodologies have been developed to improve language learning. For example, the Grammar-Translation Method emphasizes reading, writing, and translation, while the Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) approach encourages students to use English in real-life situations through meaningful interaction.
Modern English teaching often combines different methodologies to meet the needs of diverse learners. Teachers may use games, technology, group work, role-playing activities, and project-based learning to make lessons more engaging and effective. This flexible approach recognizes that students have different learning styles, interests, and levels of proficiency.
Assessment is another essential part of the teaching process. Besides traditional tests, teachers can evaluate students through presentations, classroom participation, portfolios, and collaborative projects. Continuous assessment allows teachers to monitor students’ progress and adjust their teaching strategies when necessary.
Finally, an effective English teacher is not only knowledgeable about the language but also reflective about their teaching practice. By evaluating their lessons and seeking professional development, teachers can continuously improve their instructional methods and better support their students’ learning.
Read the paragraph below about English as a
Global Language.
“Interculturality highlights the role of the English language as a global means of communication, connecting people from different countries, cultures, and backgrounds. As an international language, English enables individuals to exchange ideas, collaborate, and build relationships across ________boundaries. At the same time, it reflects the richness of __________diversity and includes many linguistic and__________variations influenced by local traditions, accents, and expressions. Understanding these differences is essential for effective communication in international contexts, as it promotes respect, empathy, and __________ awareness. By using English in a way that values diversity, people can communicate more successfully and contribute to a more inclusive and interconnected world.”

Should all pupils get the right to an outdoor education week?
Kirsten Campbell
In a matter of days the government will make a decision
that could affect generations of children to come. For many, the
Primary 7 outdoor residential trip is one of the highlights of
their school days. For some, it is inspirational, even lifechanging. A members bill making its way through the Scottish
Parliament would guarantee a week of residential outdoor
education for every pupil. When it was put first put forward by
Conservative MSP Liz Smith, the Schools (Residential
Outdoor Education) (Scotland) bill won majority support, but it
faces what could prove to be an insurmountable obstacle.
Without government financial backing it looks doomed to fall.
And at a time when budgets are already tight, not everyone is
convinced such a commitment is the best use of resources.
Liz Smith, herself a former teacher, says she has seen
the benefits of outdoor education first hand and wants to ensure
every child gets the opportunity during their time at school. Her
proposed new law would mean every pupil in Scotland is
entitled to four nights and five days of outdoor education. But
while it was backed in principle in March, it cannot proceed
unless the government tables a financial resolution - and so far
that hasn't happened. Smith believes the experience of outdoor
education can be transformative for children. “I think we should
be trying to level up, to ensure that young people, whoever they
are, whatever their background, whatever their family
circumstances, they should have that opportunity.” She argues
the benefits are powerful - and backed up by evidence. “The
statistics we have show that if they have participated in
residential outdoor education, their attendance is better, their
behaviour is better, their self-discipline is better.”
“What could be better than that?”
But there is a postcode lottery in provision of residential
outdoor education, with research for the University of
Edinburgh stating that just a third of secondary schools and only
a quarter of primary schools offer this type of experience.
Thirty minutes from Glasgow, Dounans outdoor education
centre, in the Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park,
gives school groups a taste of the outdoors. A Primary 7 group
from Fife is spending a week taking part in activities like
canoeing, tree climbing and raft-building. Harris, 11, was first
to climb to the top of a tall tree as his classmates looked on.
“When everyone was cheering me on that helped,” he said. “I
was proud of myself for doing that because it was really high.”
Ten-year-old Orla was next. “I was nervous and shivery and
thought it did look pretty high. It was like a feeling of
accomplishment - I felt super happy and joyful.”
One of the biggest problems though is that the
experience doesn't come cheap. Liz Smith estimates the policy
would cost between £25m and £40m a year. The minister for
children, Natalie Don-Innes, told MSPs that was unaffordable
and ringfencing cash for outdoor education could be to the
detriment of other activities. She said: “Where would you seek
to cut funding from in education? Would it be our teachers, our
schools, would it be nurseries or our colleges?”
A Scottish government spokesman said: “Both the
education committee and the Scottish government have been
clear that outstanding issues on the affordability of the bill,
impact on the education workforce and ensuring provision is
equitable for children across Scotland, need to be addressed before a decision can be taken to lodge a motion for a financial
resolution.”
The Convention of Scottish Local Authorities (Cosla)
also has concerns about the practicalities, questioning the
impact on staffing, the costs of transport and what it would
mean for schools' ability to take part in other trips relating to
geography, history or the arts. But the Outward Bound Trust
believes it would be an investment. It has highlighted the
findings of a global study across eight countries, including the
UK, which concluded that for every £1 invested in Outward
Bound programmes, there is a return of between £5 and £15 in
societal value.
Chief Executive Martin Davidson said: “Outward
Bound doesn't teach young people to canoe or to climb, what
we teach young people is about themselves. “But we do that
through fantastic adventures and outdoor activities that help
them learn about themselves and working with others.” The
Scottish Parliament will continue to grapple with the issues in
both the chamber and in committee over the next couple of
days. But time is running out. If the funding issues aren't
resolved by the end of the month, the legislation will fall,
despite having the backing of most MSPs.

backing it looks doomed to fall,” what does the word

AI teachers and cybernetics - what could the world look like
in 2050?
Laura Cress - Technology reporter
The last 25 years has seen some mind-bending
technological changes. At the start of the century, most
computers connected to the internet with noisy dial-up
connections, Netflix was an online DVD rental company, and
the vast majority of people hadn't even heard of a smartphone.
Fast forward two and a half decades, and innovations in AI,
robotics and much else besides are emerging at an incredible
rate. So we decided to ask experts what the next 25 years could
bring. Here are their predictions for the technology we'll be
using by 2050 - and how it could reshape our lives.
Merging humans and machines
Science fiction set in the 2050s is full of examples of
humans using technological enhancements to feel fitter, happier
and more productive. In the 2000 hit game Deus Ex - set in 2052
- the player can inject themselves with tiny robots called
“nanites”. These microscopic robots manipulate matter on
atomic levels, giving superhuman abilities such as enhanced
speed and the ability to see in the dark. It sounds like something
from the distant future, but nanotechnology - engineering at a
scale of millionths of a millimetre - is already used in lots of
everyday real-life tech. In fact, it is powering the way you are
reading these very words right now - every smartphone or
computer is run by a central chip made up of billions of tiny
transistors - electrical components built on a nanoscale to speed
up data processing. Professor Steven Bramwell at the London
Centre for Nanotechnology told the BBC by 2050 we should
expect the lines between machines, electronics and biology to
be “significantly blurred”. That means we could see
nanotechnology implants by then - but more to “monitor your
health or aid communication” rather than to appear invisible, as
in Deus Ex. Medicine could also make common use of
machines at a nanometre scale to “deliver drugs to exactly
where they need to go”, said Professor Bramwell. Cybernetics
professor Kevin Warwick is equally interested in studying
augmentations, going one step further than most. In 1998 he
became the first human to have a microchip implanted into his
nervous system, earning him the title “Captain Cyborg”.
Professor Warwick believes by 2050, advancements in
cybernetics - the science studying the links between natural and
mechanical systems - could lead to trailblazing treatments for
diseases. He predicts the use of “deep brain electronic
stimulation” as a partial treatment for some conditions such as
schizophrenia, rather than medicine. He adds it is likely we'll
see more cybernetic enhancements of the kind he has already
trialled himself, so that “your brain and body can be in different
places”. And what if we wanted to test out how the latest
enhancement, or even new diet worked on our bodies, without
any risks of experiencing the side effects? Professor Roger
Highfield, Science Director of the Science Museum, believes
“digital twins” - virtual versions of a physical object, updated
using real time data - could become a regular feature in our
lives. He imagines a world where each of us could have
“thousands of simplified twins”, using them to explore how
“different medications or lifestyle changes affect your unique
biology”. In other words, we could preview our futures before
we live them.
The next generation of AI
Many technology firms, including Google and IBM, are
currently locked in a multi-billion dollar race to revolutionise
how we push fields like AI even further - in the form
of quantum computing. Quantum computers are machines
which can do very complex calculations at incredibly fast
speeds - for example, simulating molecular interactions to
design new drugs faster. In January 2025, Jensen Huang - boss
of the leading chip firm Nvidia - said he believed “very useful”
quantum computing would come in 20 years. AI itself will
undoubtedly continue to loom large in our society as we journey
towards the half century mark. Futurist and author Tracey
Follows, who helped write a White Paper on UK education in
2050, believes learning will take place across “virtual and
physical realities” using AI teachers which “adjust in real time”.
Rather than textbooks, she predicts children will use
“immersive simulations”. Meanwhile, education will be less
standardised, with each child's individual DNA or biometric
data studied to understand how they learn best.

In Brazil, four in ten teenagers face school bullying
In Brazil, four out of ten students aged 13 to 17 say they have already been
victims of bullying, and 27.2 percent in this age group have suffered some
form of humiliation two or more times.
The data, released this week, are based on testimonies collected in 2024
in schools across Brazil by the Brazilian government’s statistics agency
IBGE as part of the National School Health Survey (PeNSE).
Compared to the previous survey, conducted in 2019, there was a 0.7
percentage point increase in the total number of students who reported
having suffered bullying. The proportion of students who experienced it at
least twice rose by more than 4 percentage points, Marco Andreazzi, the
research manager, emphasized.
“Bullying is already characterized as something persistent, intermittent…
And here we observe an upward trend, indicating that more students have
begun to experience repeated situations of violence,” Andreazzi said.
The researcher stressed that “the number of those who suffer bullying
remains practically the same; however, the persistence and intensity of the
episodes have increased.”
Appearance, race, gender
Bullied students told researchers that their facial features or hair were the
main targets of bullying, accounting for 30.2 percent of cases.
Next is body appearance, accounting for 24.7 percent, followed by bullying
related to color or race, reported by 10.6 percent.
“There is also a high percentage - 26.3 percent - of students who say the
bullying had no reason. That is, many of those who suffer do not know
why, and this is natural, since bullying occurs collectively and the victim
does not necessarily perceive a reason for it. On the contrary, they feel
completely wronged,” the research manager noted.
The research found that girls are the most affected - 43.3 percent have
experienced bullying, compared to 37.3 percent of boys.
Furthermore, 30.1 percent of female adolescent students reported feeling
humiliated by teasing from classmates two or more times. This proportion
is nearly 6 percentage points higher than among male students.
Profile of the aggressors
Data on those who commit bullying show an inverse pattern: 13.7 percent
of students reported having engaged in some form of violence - 16.5
percent of boys and 10.9 percent of girls.
IBGE also asked about the reasons for the aggression, and once again,
facial features, hair, body type, and skin color or race were the most
frequently cited.
However, some significant differences emerged in relation to victims’
reports. For example, 12.1 percent of perpetrators said they engaged in
bullying because of their classmates’ gender or sexual orientation, while
only 6.4 percent of victims identified this as a motive for the violence.
A similar pattern emerged regarding disability: while 7.6 percent of
perpetrators acknowledged engaging in bullying for this reason, only 2.6
percent of victims associated the attacks with this characteristic.
For researchers, this may indicate that many victims prefer to remain silent
about the circumstances for fear of being stigmatized.

'It's Happening': Daniel Johns Drops More Teases
After Making Shock Appearance at Silverchair
Tribute Show
Daniel Johns has been sharing cryptic messages in
recent months, and fans are only asking more questions
The iconic Australian musician has been sharing cryptic
messages in recent months, and fans are only asking
more questions on the back of his latest social media
post.
In clips shared to the Silverchair frontman's Instagram,
captioned "It's happening", it was revealed that Johns
made a surprise appearance at the soundcheck of local
band The Lizards' show earlier this year at Little Bosa in
Port Elliot, South Adelaide. The band were playing
Silverchair's debut album Frogstomp in full to celebrate
the record's 30th anniversary.
Per the video, Johns "just rocks up at soundcheck,
played with The Lizards for a bit, did a jam, and it was
just really odd", before returning later in the night for the
gig. He is believed to have shown up quietly as the show
started as "Dan didn't want to freak anyone out" and
watched from the kitchen: "Then Dan just disappeared.
Just vanished. It was so trippy, but it happened. I filmed a
bit on my phone because I knew no one would believe
me. It was crazy."
It comes after Johns posted a black-and-white Polaroid
on his Instagram in June, paired with short clips of
himself tearing through a frantic guitar piece. The
captions read: "5 Minute Warning," "Stand 'em up against
the wall," and "This concludes the intermission — see
you in 1995. #FutureNever."
The posts continue a run of unusual updates in recent
weeks, with Johns dropping hints about "time travelling"
and slipping in references to 1994.
For Johns, 1994 is more than just a throwback. It was the
year Silverchair broke through with their debut EP
Tomorrow, whose title track topped the ARIA Charts.
Back in April, on his 46th birthday, Johns reemerged on
Instagram for the first time since October 2023, writing: "I
have to go back in time to finalise something."
Silverchair celebrated the Frogstomp anniversary with a
special event in Sydney in March, though Johns was not
in attendance.
In 2023, his Silverchair bandmates Ben Gillies and Chris
Joannou teamed up to release the memoir Love & Pain,
which covered the rise of Silverchair as a burgeoning trio
from Newcastle to one of the world's biggest acts.
At the time, Johns pushed for the removal of a two-part
Australian Story documentary from ABC iView ahead of
the book's release, claiming he had not cleared the rights
to Silverchair songs being used in the programme.
"I was and remain incredibly supportive of them telling
their story," Johns wrote on Instagram.
"I was asked at the end of filming to be interviewed about
their contribution to the band and although I wished them
all the best, I respectfully declined for one reason.
"I haven't been involved in the book nor am I aware of the
contents. I've asked on many occasions to read the book
but haven't been sent a copy, consequently I was
uncomfortable being interviewed to help promote it."
Johns' last offering of new music came in 2022 with his
second studio album, FutureNever, which also hit #1 in
Australia and picked up ARIA, APRA and AIR Award
nominations.

Using Machine Learning to Develop
Personalized Vaccines for Cancer
Yale researchers have developed a machine
learning model, called Immunostruct, that can
help scientists create more personalized
vaccines, including vaccines for cancer. They
described the tool in Nature Machine
Intelligence along with findings from applying
it to cancer and immunology data.
When a potential threat, such as a virus
or tumor, arises in our body, our immune cells
recognize peptides---essentially short
proteins---on the surface of the invader and
mount a defensive response. This small region
that the immune system interacts with is known
as an epitope.
Epitope-based vaccines are an emerging
technology that contain specific peptides in
order to trigger immune responses that
precisely target particular diseases. Ongoing
studies show that these vaccines are a
promising potential immunotherapy for a range
of cancers including melanomas, breast
cancers, and glioblastomas. Researchers are
also investigating whether these vaccines could
more effectively combat new variants of
infectious diseases.
To develop these vaccines, scientists
can use models that help them predict which
peptides are most likely to trigger a strong immune response to a particular antigen. A
limitation of many of these models, the
researchers say, is that they treat peptides as a
one-dimensional sequence of amino acids, not
the three-dimensional, active structures that
they are.
Now, Yale researchers have created a
model that also incorporates structural and
biochemical properties of peptides. In the new
study, they show that the multimodal model is
more effective at identifying peptide candidates
than its predecessors.
"Cancer is extremely heterogeneous---which often makes it very hard to treat
effectively," says Kevin B. Givechian, PhD, an
MD-PhD student at Yale and co-first author on
the study. “We have built a deep-learning model
that integrates more information than had
previously been combined to help us improve
the identification of vaccine targets that
stimulate people's immune system against their
own tumor. Doing so would enable a more
effective and less toxic method of treatment."

ELF and the Brazilian National Core Curriculum
The current Brazilian National Core Curriculum (BNCC) adopts English as a Lingua Franca (ELF) as a guiding concept for English Language Teaching (ELT) across the country’s basic education system. While the measure has sparked debate and controversy, ELF’s inclusion in the document is generally seen as an innovative step. However, its implementation has brought significant challenges, especially for teachers who often lack a clear understanding of the concept or how to incorporate ELF-aware practices into their classrooms. These challenges underscore the pivotal role of teacher education in effectively integrating ELF into ELT in local contexts.

Emotions inspire transformation: delving into EFL teachers’
emotions and professional identities
Emotions in education have attracted significant attention over the
past few years, particularly in language teaching and learning.
Emotions are not just fleeting states but also play a crucial role in
classroom dynamics, influencing both student achievements and
the quality of teaching. In particular, they are instrumental in
influencing teachers’ professional identity, image, affective
commitment level, and even classroom performance because the
emotional experiences of teachers are deep, complex, and
intertwined with their very professional identity. Teaching English
as a Foreign Language (EFL) typically intensifies the emotional
complexity. Subsequent research has extended beyond the
understanding of emotions as solely psychological phenomena,
and emotions are now also understood as sociocultural and
political constructs. Viewed this way, teaching can be seen as
emotional labor: an ongoing demand to demonstrate and regulate
emotions in a way that aligns with professional norms but may lead
to burnout and disillusionment if no coping mechanisms are
provided. The challenges faced by teachers have led to an
increased call for support to help them identify, process, and
respond to emotions. This notion supports conscious emotional work, and as it is no longer viewed solely as remedial practice, it is
a critical first step in developing coherent and resilient professional
identities. The relationship between teacher emotions and identity
is not a linear one; they are in constant and dynamic interplay with
one another. As emotional experiences fluctuate, whether through
student interactions, collegial relationships, or institutionalized
approaches and policies, the teacher’s capacity to develop in a
sense of professional identity also changes.
