Earthquake levels city of Antakya in southern Turkey 


    The Turkish city of Antakya, one of  the hardest‐hit  towns in  the earthquake  zone,  has  been  nearly  destroyed  by  the massive  7.8  quake  that  struck  on  6th  February.  Tall  apartment  buildings were  flattened,  trapping  residents  who  were  sleeping  when  the  quake  struck  in  the  early  morning  hours.  Thousands  are  __________  to  be  buried  in  their  homes.  Most  of  the  city  was  heavily  damaged  and  rescuers  have  been  working  around  the  clock to pull survivors from under the rubble, racing against time  in  cold  weather. Many  residents  were  left  homeless  and  had  to  spend nights outdoors, burning debris to keep warm as overnight temperatures  dropped  below  freezing. Workers  pulled  a man  in  his 30s out of the ruins as a jubilant crowd burst into cheers and  tears. Not  long after,  they  found an elderly woman. Then, a  10‐ year‐old girl was also rescued: the child was under the rubble for  90  hours.  These moments  of  hope  among  the  devastation  keep  them going as darkness falls. More than 80 hours after the quake,  rescuers using pails along with other equipment, found a man and  his mother, and pulled  them out alive. Amid  the  rubble, a group of rescuers were able to pull out lost family members alive. 


    Even  as  more  help  arrives,  hope  for  finding  survivors  dwindles.  Family  members  wait  in  the  cold  to  see  if  their  loved ones will be found, alive or dead. There are more than 100 bodies  waiting  for  identification  in  a  makeshift  morgue  outside  the  Antakya hospital. More than 600 aftershocks are slowing recovery  efforts  and  make  the  task  more  dangerous.  Little  aid  from  the  government has reached  the city and  the need is overwhelming.  People walk  the  streets  in  tears,  dazed. There  is  no  place  to go.  Everything  is  covered  in  dust.  Even  with  some  120,000  rescuers  across Turkey and Syria now  taking part in  the effort,  the  task is  daunting.  With  every  passing  hour,  the  likelihood  of  finding  survivors diminishes.

Global coral reef bleaching event underway as oceans get  warmer  


    The  world’s  oceans  experience  unprecedented  rising  temperatures:  last  month,  the  average  global  sea  surface  temperature reached a record 21° Celsius. Last week, the National  Oceanic  and  Atmospheric  Administration  (NOAA)  reported  the  4th  global  bleaching  event  on  record.  A  press  release  stated,  “Within  the  last  14 months,  significant  coral  bleaching  has  been  documented in  the Northern and Southern Hemispheres of each  major  ocean  basin.  Since  2023,  the  problem  has  become  more  frequent in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans.”


    According  to NOAA, warmer  ocean  temperatures  can  result  in expulsion of algae that live in the coral tissue, leaving the coral  completely  white  ‐  something  known  as  ‘coral  bleaching’.  This  does  not  necessarily mean  corals will  die,  as  they  can  recover  if  the strain on their ecosystems is reduced. At a local level, storms,  disease,  sediments  and  changes  in  salinity  can  cause  corals  to  bleach. However, mass bleaching, which is when several varieties  of  coral  reefs  are  bleached,  is  largely  caused  by  increased  sea temperatures.  When  these  events  are  sufficiently  severe  or  prolonged, they can cause coral mortality, which hurts the people  who depend on the coral reefs for their livelihoods.


    In  2019, NOAA  published  a  study  that  provided  “resilience‐ based management practices” and __________ the importance of  coral restoration. “We are on the frontlines of coral reef research,  management  and  restoration,  and  are  actively  and  aggressively  implementing  the  recommendations  of  the  2019  study.” A  buoy  in  Florida  reported  an  ocean  temperature  of  38°  Celsius  in  July 2023, according to meteorologists at the time. In response, NOAA  started  a  program  to  attempt  to  offset  the  effects  of  global  climate change on the local coral reefs by moving coral nurseries  to  deeper,  cooler  waters  and  deploying  sunshades  to  protect  corals in other areas.

    According  to NOAA, warmer  ocean  temperatures  can  result  in expulsion of algae that live in the coral tissue, leaving the coral  completely  white  ‐  something  known  as  ‘coral  bleaching’.  This  does  not  necessarily mean  corals will  die,  as  they  can  recover  if  the strain on their ecosystems is reduced. At a local level, storms,  disease,  sediments  and  changes  in  salinity  can  cause  corals  to  bleach. However, mass bleaching, which is when several varieties  of  coral  reefs  are  bleached,  is  largely  caused  by  increased  sea temperatures.  When  these  events  are  sufficiently  severe  or  prolonged, they can cause coral mortality, which hurts the people  who depend on the coral reefs for their livelihoods.


    In  2019, NOAA  published  a  study  that  provided  “resilience‐ based management practices” and __________ the importance of  coral restoration. “We are on the frontlines of coral reef research,  management  and  restoration,  and  are  actively  and  aggressively  implementing  the  recommendations  of  the  2019  study.” A  buoy  in  Florida  reported  an  ocean  temperature  of  38°  Celsius  in  July 2023, according to meteorologists at the time. In response, NOAA  started  a  program  to  attempt  to  offset  the  effects  of  global  climate change on the local coral reefs by moving coral nurseries  to  deeper,  cooler  waters  and  deploying  sunshades  to  protect  corals in other areas.

What is a friend?

Márcio Paulo Barbosa Pena Mascarenhas


Laurie: To me, a friend is someone who stands by you when you need them, someone who cares. Not like your parents, ________. Parents are either picking on you or telling you off, so sometimes it’s a pain. To a friend you can always open up.


Angela: I agree with Laurie but personally, I don’t think a friend has to be physically around all the time. I have friends that I haven’t seen in years, but I know if we get together, we’ll pick up right where we left off.


Fran: I think a friend is that old pal you’ve always gotten on with. I often look back on my schooldays and I think of the funny things my friends and I did together. As I see it, the friends you make in youth are friends to keep for a lifetime.


Gary: If you ask me, a friend is a person you have fun and relax with. My friends and I talk about movies, sports or politics. I don’t go round telling them my troubles and I don’t particularly want to hear theirs. I believe that if you don’t expect too much from people, you won’t be let down.

Grade 1, Student’s book, Belo Horizonte, 14th edition.

According to the text, write T for true and F for false. Then, choose the alternative with the correct sequence.

( ) In Angela’s opinion, a friend is someone who keeps physical contact with a fellow, at least once a year, in order to show the person that he/she cares about him/her.
( ) Gary thinks you should have fun and enjoy life with your friends, talking to them about your interests instead of talking about your problems and above all: without expectations.
( ) As far as Laurie is concerned, a friend is just like parents. Someone you can count on and talk about your feelings.
( ) In Frank’s view, friends are those who have good memories with you; those who are part of your teenager time and because of this should be kept for your whole life.

One man in a boat

L.G. Alexander


Fishing is my favourite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this does not worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything ‐ not even old boots. After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. “You must give up fishing!” my friends say. “It’s a waste of time.” But they don’t realize one important thing. I’m not really interested in fishing. I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!


PRACTICE AND PROGRESS ‐ An Integrated Course for Pre‐Intermediate Students, L.G Alexander, Longman Group Limited, London.

According to the text, choose the alternative that best rewrites the sentence: “Some fishermen are unlucky (...) I am  even less lucky”.

Global coral reef bleaching event underway as oceans get warmer

    The world’s oceans experience unprecedented rising temperatures: last month, the average global sea surface temperature reached a record 21° Celsius. Last week, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) reported the 4th global bleaching event on record. A press release stated, “Within the last 14 months, significant coral bleaching has been documented in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres of each major ocean basin. Since 2023, the problem has become more frequent in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian oceans.”

    According to NOAA, warmer ocean temperatures can result in expulsion of algae that live in the coral tissue, leaving the coral completely white - something known as ‘coral bleaching’. This does not necessarily mean corals will die, as they can recover if the strain on their ecosystems is reduced. At a local level, storms, disease, sediments and changes in salinity can cause corals to bleach. However, mass bleaching, which is when several varieties of coral reefs are bleached, is largely caused by increased sea temperatures. When these events are sufficiently severe or prolonged, they can cause coral mortality, which hurts the people who depend on the coral reefs for their livelihoods.

    In 2019, NOAA published a study that provided “resiliencebased management practices” and __________ the importance of coral restoration. “We are on the frontlines of coral reef research, management and restoration, and are actively and aggressively implementing the recommendations of the 2019 study.” A buoy in Florida reported an ocean temperature of 38° Celsius in July 2023, according to meteorologists at the time. In response, NOAA started a program to attempt to offset the effects of global climate change on the local coral reefs by moving coral nurseries to deeper, cooler waters and deploying sunshades to protect corals in other areas.

AI won’t take your job if you know about IA
Intelligence augmentation shows that human + AI is an ideal partnership – and the future of white-collar work

The less exciting but more likely reality is that the changes AI brings to the workplace will entail upskilling — when workers learn new skills — not reskilling or complete replacement. And upskilling is not about surrendering to AI but instead about mastering intelligence augmentation, or IA, which is what happens when humans and AI work together to accomplish more as a team than either could flying solo. That collaboration is based on the distinction between two concepts: reckoning and judgment. Reckoning vs. Judgment A critical difference between AI and humans is our primary mode of operation. AI operates through what is often referred to as “reckoning,” such as calculative prediction. By that, we mean AI’s true capabilities are grounded in facts and historical knowledge - data that can be calculated, memorized, and repeated. It makes predictions based on what it knows. By contrast, humans operate through judgment or practical wisdom. We understand things AI can’t possibly know. That’s because we humans have lived experiences that continually inform how we see the world. It’s the intangible factors, like ethical considerations and empathetic responses, that make humans better equipped than AI to make complex decisions about human affairs. This practical wisdom is one reason humans must keep creating new things for IA to advance. Imagine what would happen if humans stopped writing original content. The current model of AI could never pass a certain point because it would never encounter new, innovative ideas. Eventually, AI would run out of new ideas to share, and our collective knowledge would stagnate. AI is like moonlight; its ideas come from the reflected sunlight of human insights. Now, it’s essential to recognize that this contrast between AI and humans is nothing to fear. Instead, it shows us why “human + AI” is an ideal work partnership. AI can perform massive calculations in the blink of an eye at a pace far superior to even the most intelligent human on the planet. When paired with a human capable of making quick decisions based on lived experience, judgment, and practical wisdom, it’s an immensely more powerful tool than it is on its own.
