TEXTO 4 



“Aquele foi o melhor dos tempos, foi o pior dos tempos; aquela foi a idade da sabedoria, foi a idade da insensatez; foi a época da crença, foi a época da descrença; foi a estação da Luz, a estação das Trevas; a primavera da esperança, o inverno do desespero; tínhamos tudo diante de nós, não tínhamos nada diante de nós; íamos todos direto para o Paraíso, todos íamos no sentido contrário – em suma, o período era em tal medida semelhante ao presente que algumas de suas mais ruidosas autoridades insistiram em seu recebimento, para o bem ou para o mal, apenas no grau superlativo de comparação”. 


DICKENS, Charles. Um conto de duas cidades. Tradução de Sandra Luzia Couto. São Paulo: Editora Nova Cultural, 2002, p. 15.

Com base no fragmento literário acima sobre o tempo cronológico, avalie as afirmações a seguir:


I - O passado é ambivalente, possuindo, assim, dois valores possíveis para a voz do texto;
II - O presente é semelhante e se compara ao passado, portanto são passíveis de comparação;
III - O tempo passado era sempre melhor do que o tempo presente, pois seu valor positivo pode ser atestado em toda as orações do fragmento;

IV - O tempo passado é equiparado ao futuro, já que, segundo o fragmento literário, apenas no futuro é que se poderia atestar a qualidade do passado;
V - O futuro é o tempo que será sempre igual ao passado, conforme pode ser depreendido pela última oração do fragmento.

TEXTO 3 



“[...] na concepção interacional (dialógica) da língua, os sujeitos são vistos como atores/ construtores sociais, sujeitos ativos que – dialogicamente – se constroem e são construídos no texto, considerado o próprio lugar da interação e da constituição dos interlocutores. Desse modo, há lugar, no texto, para toda uma gama de implícitos, dos mais variados tipos, somente detectáveis quando se tem, como pano de fundo, o contexto sociocognitivo dos participantes da interação”. 


KOCH, Ingedore Villaça; ELIAS, Vanda Maria. Ler e compreender: os sentidos do texto. 3. ed. São Paulo: Contexto, 2011, p. 10-11.

Com base no Texto 3 acima, é possível compreender que um texto é sempre situado em um contexto sócio-histórico e cultural específico e construído com um conjunto de fatores mobilizados pelo leitor e envolvidos na sua produção e interpretação.

Inferência é a operação cognitiva pela qual, utilizando seu conhecimento de mundo, o receptor (leitor/ouvinte) de um texto estabelece uma relação não explícita entre dois elementos (normalmente frases ou trechos) deste texto que ele busca compreender e interpretar, por vezes até considerando seu conhecimento de mundo. Quase todos os textos que lemos ou ouvimos exigem que façamos uma série de inferências para podermos compreendê-los integralmente.

TEXT VI

Why are animals important to human beings?

There are a number of reasons why animals are important to human beings. The main reason is that animals benefit us personally, socially and economically.

Since the time of our cavemen ancestors, there have been interactions between humans and animals. Animals can be our friends, companions, protectors, benefactors and comforters. Research studies indicate that people who own pets and have close bond with them have higher self-esteem. They are also generally happier and healthier. There are many reported cases in which pets protected their owners and family members. In the United States, a pet dog alerted its owners that their babysitter was abusive. A couple who hired a babysitter to take care of their baby noticed that their pet dog was aggressive to the babysitter. Upon investigation, they discovered that their child was abused by the babysitter.

Animals provide many other benefits to humans. Insulin, a hormone in our body which controls the amount of sugar absorbed by our blood, could not be artificially produced previously. It had to be derived from cows and pigs. Nowadays, even though animal insulin has largely been replaced by artificial human insulin, the former is still available on prescription. Trained guide dogs are available to serve as loyal companions and ‘pairs of eyes’ for the blind. In the past, hunters took along hunting dogs to track, sniff out and catch wild game. When night fell, the canines were the hunters’ companions and protectors. In rehabilitation centers, animals are used to help the sick recover. For instance, petting a pony helps to lift a sick child’s spirit.

Throughout history, animals have helped humans. We use animals to work for us. In the agricultural sector, oxen pull ploughs before seeds are planted in the soil. We use horses for transportation purposes. They pull carriages and covered wagons for us. Even though oxen and horses are rarely used for farming and travelling purposes respectively today, the horses are still being used for riding and racing. They are also used to participate in contests in order to win awards. Farmers depend on animals such as cattle, poultry, sheep, goats, among others, for their horses are rarely used for farming and travelling purposes respectively today, the horses are still being used for riding and racing. They sell the animals’ meat, milk and eggs to earn money. In the fishing industry, although the use of modern equipment and technology have replaced the use of animals to catch fish, fishermen in some parts of the world still use animals like dolphins, otters and cormorants for the purpose.

Another indirectly way in which animals help us is that they assist in the reproduction of a variety of fruit and vegetable crops, which are an important part of our healthy diet. Without animals to help disperse seeds and pollinate plants, many of them would have become extinct.

In conclusion, animals are important to human beings because they benefit us socially, personally as well as economically. Since they are of great benefit to us, we should treat them well.

Why are animals important to human beings?

There are a number of reasons why animals are important to human beings. The main reason is that animals benefit us personally, socially and economically.

Since the time of our cavemen ancestors, there have been interactions between humans and animals. Animals can be our friends, companions, protectors, benefactors and comforters. Research studies indicate that people who own pets and have close bond with them have higher self-esteem. They are also generally happier and healthier. There are many reported cases in which pets protected their owners and family members. In the United States, a pet dog alerted its owners that their babysitter was abusive. A couple who hired a babysitter to take care of their baby noticed that their pet dog was aggressive to the babysitter. Upon investigation, they discovered that their child was abused by the babysitter.

Animals provide many other benefits to humans. Insulin, a hormone in our body which controls the amount of sugar absorbed by our blood, could not be artificially produced previously. It had to be derived from cows and pigs. Nowadays, even though animal insulin has largely been replaced by artificial human insulin, the former is still available on prescription. Trained guide dogs are available to serve as loyal companions and ‘pairs of eyes’ for the blind. In the past, hunters took along hunting dogs to track, sniff out and catch wild game. When night fell, the canines were the hunters’ companions and protectors. In rehabilitation centers, animals are used to help the sick recover. For instance, petting a pony helps to lift a sick child’s spirit.

Throughout history, animals have helped humans. We use animals to work for us. In the agricultural sector, oxen pull ploughs before seeds are planted in the soil. We use horses for transportation purposes. They pull carriages and covered wagons for us. Even though oxen and horses are rarely used for farming and travelling purposes respectively today, the horses are still being used for riding and racing. They are also used to participate in contests in order to win awards. Farmers depend on animals such as cattle, poultry, sheep, goats, among others, for their horses are rarely used for farming and travelling purposes respectively today, the horses are still being used for riding and racing. They sell the animals’ meat, milk and eggs to earn money. In the fishing industry, although the use of modern equipment and technology have replaced the use of animals to catch fish, fishermen in some parts of the world still use animals like dolphins, otters and cormorants for the purpose.

Another indirectly way in which animals help us is that they assist in the reproduction of a variety of fruit and vegetable crops, which are an important part of our healthy diet. Without animals to help disperse seeds and pollinate plants, many of them would have become extinct.

In conclusion, animals are important to human beings because they benefit us socially, personally as well as economically. Since they are of great benefit to us, we should treat them well.

Organ Donation and Transplant  


At this moment, more than 113,000 people in the U.S. are waiting for an organ. One more person is added to the national waiting list every 12 minutes. Each of these people is in desperate need of a kidney, liver, heart, or other organ. More than 6,500 people a year -- about 20 a day -- die before that organ ever becomes available.
Organ donors are always in short supply. There are far more people in need of a transplant than there are people willing to donate an organ. Most of the organs that are available come from deceased donors. When you fill out an organ donor card with your driver's license, you're agreeing to donate all or some of your organs if you die.
A smaller number of organs come from healthy people. More than 6,000 transplants from living donors are performed each year.
You might have wondered about donating an organ -- either to a friend or relative who needs an organ right now, or by filling out an organ donor card.
Just about anyone, at any age, can become an organ donor. Anyone younger than age18 needs to have the consent of a parent or guardian.
For organ donation after death, a medical assessment will be done to determine what organs can be donated. Certain conditions, such as having HIV, actively spreading cancer, or severe infection would exclude organ donation.
Having a serious condition like cancer, HIV, diabetes, kidney disease, or heart disease can prevent you from donating as a living donor. 

“You might have wondered about donating an organ -- EITHER to a friend OR relative…” (line 13). The highlighted expression is a:
