Considere o trecho do resumo de um artigo relacionado ao uso de agrotóxicos na agricultura brasileira para responder à questão.
The intensive use of pesticides in Brazilian agriculture is a public
health issue due to contamination of the environment, food and human
health poisoning. The study aimed to show the spatial distribution of the
planted area of agricultural crops, the use of pesticides and related health
problems, as a Health Surveillance strategy. We obtained data from the
planted area of 21 predominant crops, indicators of the consumption of
pesticides per hectare for each crop and health problems. The amount of
pesticides used in the Brazilian municipalities was spatially distributed and
correlated with the incidence of pesticides poisoning: acute, sub-acute
and chronic. The health problems showed positive and significant correlations with pesticide use.

A fire gutted parts of Notre Dame Cathedral and altered the Paris skyline
Paris (CNN) A catastrophic fire engulfed Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris on Monday, altering the city's skyline
and threatening a potent symbol of Catholicism at the start of Holy Week.
The fire burned for several hours, destroying the 850-year-old cathedral's iconic spire and roof before
firefighters contained the blaze early Tuesday morning.
A pair of bell towers immortalized in Victor Hugo's tale "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" survived, along
with the cathedral's elaborate stonework facade. Officials said invaluable artifacts were saved, including the
Crown of Thorns, believed to be a relic of the passion of Christ.
President Emmanuel Macron lamented the destruction of an awe-inspiring building that embodied the heart of
Paris for more than 800 years. But he pledged to rebuild, starting with the launch of an international fundraising
campaign.
"Notre Dame is our history, it's our literature, it's our imagery. It's
the place where we live our greatest moments, from wars to
pandemics to liberations," he said.
"This history is ours. And it burns. It burns and I know the sadness
so many of our fellow French feel."
The Paris prosecutor opened an investigation into the fire, the
cause of which is still unknown.
Hundreds of firefighters were deployed to the scene, snarled by rush hour traffic.
For much of the afternoon, flames and plumes of smoke billowed from the cathedral as firefighters in cranes
sprayed water onto the structure.
The cathedral was undergoing renovation work, the fire service said.
'Madness'
The fire, just days before Easter, was met with horror by Parisians and tourists.
As firefighters battled the blaze, Parisians gathered outside the church Monday night, raising their voices in
prayer.
"It's awful to see such a symbol disappearing in front of you. It's been there for so many years and in a few
minutes half of it disappeared ... crazy.
"Paris without Notre Dame, madness."

McDonald’s new paper straws – described as “eco-friendly” by the US fast food giant – cannot
be recycled. Last year, it axed plastic straws, even though they were recyclable, in all its UK branches
as part of a green drive. But the US fast food giant says the new paper straws are not yet easy to
recycle and should be put into general waste. McDonald’s says the materials are recyclable, but their
thickness makes it difficult for them to be processed.
The firm switched from plastic straws to paper ones in its restaurants in the UK and Republic
of Ireland last autumn. The straws are manufactured by Transcend Packaging, based in Ebbw Vale,
South Wales.
But some customers were unhappy with the new straws, saying they dissolved before a drink
could be finished, with milkshakes particularly hard to drink.
“As a result of customer feedback, we have strengthened our paper straws, so while the
materials are recyclable, their current thickness makes it difficult for them to be processed by our
waste solution providers, who also help us recycle our paper cups,” a McDonald’s spokesman said.
The firm said it was working to find a solution, and that current advice, as first reported by The
Sun, to put paper straws in general waste was therefore temporary.
“This waste from our restaurants does not go to landfill, but is used to generate energy,” the
company added.
A petition by irate McDonald’s customers to bring back plastic straws has so far been signed
by 51,000 people. The restaurant chain uses 1.8 million straws a day in the UK, so the move to paper
was a significant step in helping to reduce single-use plastic. Some single-use plastic products can
take hundreds of years to decompose if not recycled.

2. A direção do McDonald’s do Reino Unido e da Irlanda pede que os consumidores descartem os canudos de papel no lixo comum porque descobriram que, na verdade, eles não são totalmente recicláveis.
3. Inicialmente, foram utilizados canudos de papel reciclável que se desmanchavam com facilidade, gerando reclamações de consumidores. Por isso a troca para o papel mais grosso, o que torna impossível sua reciclagem.
4. O problema com os novos canudos de papel vem da incapacidade apenas momentânea das empresas recicladoras de processar esse tipo de papel – mas elas garantem que os canudos não vão para aterros sanitários.
5. Um grupo de consumidores ambientalistas do McDonald’s criou um abaixo-assinado com mais de 51.000 adesões, pedindo a volta dos canudos de plástico, para os quais já há tecnologia de reciclagem existente.

Big education publisher to end printed textbooks
The world's largest education publisher, Pearson, has said it will gradually phase out printed textbooks. It has taken a decision to make all of its learning resources "digital first". Pearson said the future of the industry is in e-books and digital services. Pearson CEO John Fallon explained more about the company's future direction. He told the BBC: "We are now over the digital tipping point. Over half our annual revenues come from digital sales, so we've decided, a little bit like in other industries like newspapers or music or in broadcast, that it is time to flick the switch in how we primarily make and create our products." He added: "I am increasingly confident and excited about this." Pearson said a huge advantage of digital books is that they can be continually updated, _________3 means teachers will always have access to the latest versions of textbooks. Mr. Fallon said Pearson would stop its current business model of revising printed course books every three years. He said this model has dominated the industry for over four decades and is now past its use-by date. Fallon said: "We learn by engaging and sharing with others, and a digital environment enables you to do that in a much more effective way." He added the digital books will appeal to the "Netflix and Spotify generation". Textbook writers are worried they will earn less from their books as digital products are sold on a subscription basis.

Why a global Language?
‘English is the global language.’ – A headline of this kind must have appeared in a thousand newspapers and
magazines in recent years. ‘English Rules’ is an actual example, presenting to the world an uncomplicated scenario
suggesting the universality of the language’s spread and the likelihood of its continuation. (…)
These are the kinds of statement which seem so obvious that most people would give them hardly a second
thought. Of course English is a global language, they would say. You hear it on television spoken by politicians from
all over the world. Wherever you travel, you see English signs and advertisements. Whenever you enter a hotel or
restaurant in a foreign city, they will understand English, and there will be an English menu. (…)
But English is news. The language continues to make news daily in many countries. And the headline isn’t
stating the obvious. For what does it mean, exactly? Is it saying that everyone in the world speaks English? This is
certainly not true, as we shall see. Is it saying, then, that every country in the world recognizes English as an offcial
language? This is not true either. So what does it mean to say that a language is a global language? Why is English
the language which is usually cited in this connection? How did the situation arise? And could it change? Or is it the
case that, once a language becomes a global language, it is there forever?
These are fascinating questions to explore, whether your frst language is English or not. If English is your
mother tongue, you may have mixed feelings about the way English is spreading around the world. You may feel
pride, that your language is the one which has been so successful; but your pride may be tinged with concern, when
you realize that people in other countries may not want to use the language in the same way that you do, and are
changing it to suit themselves. We are all sensitive to the way other people use (it is often said, abuse) ‘our’ language.
Deeply held feelings of ownership begin to be questioned. Indeed, if there is one predictable consequence of a
language becoming a global language, it is that nobody owns it any more. Or rather, everyone who has learned it now owns it – ‘has a share in it’ might be more accurate – and has the right to use it in the way they want. This fact alone
makes many people feel uncomfortable, even vaguely resentful. ‘Look what the Americans have done to English’ is a
not uncommon comment found in the letter-columns of the British press.
But similar comments can be heard in the USA when people encounter the sometimes striking variations in
English which are emerging all over the world. And if English is not your mother tongue, you may still have mixed
feelings about it. You may be strongly motivated to learn it, because you know it will put you in touch with more people
than any other language; but at the same time you know it will take a great deal of effort to master it, and you may
begrudge that effort. Having made progress, you will feel pride in your achievement, and savour the communicative
power you have at your disposal, but may none the less feel that mother-tongue speakers of English have an unfair
advantage over you. (…)
These feelings are natural, and would arise whichever language emerged as a global language. They are
feelings which give rise to fears, whether real or imaginary, and fears lead to conflict. Language is always in the news,
and the nearer a language moves to becoming a global language, the more newsworthy it is. So how does a
language come to achieve global status?

Text 2a. Second Language Learning
One of the principles of all learning is that we make sense of new information and ideas by relating them to
our previous knowledge. There are two main kinds of previous language knowledge which second language learners
can use in order to make sense of the new language they encounter: the first is their knowledge of their mother
tongue and the second is the knowledge they already possess about the second language itself.

Text 2b. National Curriculum Parameters
Every text is organized within a specific genre according to its communicative purposes, as part of the
conditions of discourse production, which generate social uses that determine any and every text. Genres are,
therefore, historically determined, and constitute relatively stable forms of utterances available in a culture.
