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.

Considere as seguintes afirmações relativas ao texto anterior:
1. Os canudos de plástico usados por todas as lojas do McDonald’s no Reino Unido até o outono passado já eram recicláveis. Mesmo assim, foram substituídos por canudos de papel para evitar plásticos de uso único.
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.

First ever black hole image released.
Astronomers have taken the first ever image of a black hole, which is located in a distant galaxy.
It measures 40 billion km across - three million times the size of
the Earth - and has been described by scientists as "a monster".
The black hole is 500 million trillion km away and was
photographed by a network of eight telescopes across the world
It was captured by the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), a network
of eight linked telescopes.
Prof Heino Falcke, of Radboud University in the Netherlands, who proposed the experiment, told
BBC News that the black hole was found in a galaxy called M87.
"What we see is larger than the size of our entire Solar System," he said.
"It has a mass 6.5 billion times that of the Sun. And it is one of the heaviest black holes that we think
exists. It is an absolute monster, the heavyweight champion of black holes in the Universe."
The image shows an intensely bright "ring of fire", as Prof Falcke describes it, surrounding a perfectly
circular dark hole. The bright halo is caused by superheated gas falling into the hole. The light is
brighter than all the billions of other stars in the galaxy combined - which is why it can be seen at
such distance from Earth.
The edge of the dark circle at the centre is the point at which the gas enters the black hole, which is
an object that has such a large gravitational pull, not even light can escape.
The image matches what theoretical physicists and indeed, Hollywood directors, imagined black
holes would look like, according to Dr Ziri Younsi, of University College London - who is part of the
EHT collaboration.
"Although they are relatively simple objects, black holes raise some of the most complex questions
about the nature of space and time, and ultimately of our existence," he said.
"It is remarkable that the image we observe is so similar to that which we obtain from our theoretical
calculations. So far, it looks like Einstein is correct once again."
But having the first image will enable researchers to learn more about these mysterious objects. They
will be keen to look out for ways in which the black hole departs from what's expected in physics.
No-one really knows how the bright ring around the hole is created. Even more intriguing is the
question of what happens when an object falls into a black hole.
