1. Read the following text on the ending of a tragedy. 
 
The ending of a tragedy is quite different. Here the conflict is 
resolved only with the death of the main character, who usually 
discovers just before his death that his attempts to control the 
conflict and make his way through it have simply compounded his 
difficulties and that, therefore, to a large extent the dire situation he 
is in is largely of his own making. The death of the hero is not 
normally the very last thing in a tragedy, however, for there is 
commonly (especially in classical Greek tragedy) some group lament 
over the body of the fallen hero, a reflection upon the significance 
of the life which has now ended. Some of Shakespeare's best known 
speeches are these laments. The final action of a tragedy is then the 
carrying out of the corpse. The social group has formed again, but 
only as a result of the sacrifice of the main character(s), and the 
emphasis in the group is in a much lower key, as they ponder the 
significance of the life of the dead hero (in that sense, the ending of 
a tragedy is looking back over what has happened; the ending of 
comedy is looking forward to a joyful future). 
 
Consider the next statements: 
 
I-The Conflict is resolved with the death of the hero. 
II- The hero´s predicament is of his own making. 
III-The hero´s death is the last scene of the play. 
IV-The social group becomes reunited but as a result of the sacrifice 
of the main character.

1. 
Read the text below on the formation of the new canon in ‘englishes’: 
 
If making room for the new literatures in ‘englishes’ is thought by most as politically 
correct, one of the issues that needs to be addressed is how these literary works find 
their way into the school syllabus so as not to re-affirm their marginal status, and the 
critical perspective from which they will be taught so that they do not become a mere 
celebration of newness, to borrow Bhabha’s term (2004). Another issue to be taken into 
account is that it is not the case that the so-called canonical literatures should not be 
taught any longer. Rather, what should be reconsidered is firstly, their place in this 
broader school syllabus and secondly, the way in which these texts should be 
approached, from a critical perspective. In turn, that calls for a reconsideration of some 
taken-for-granted categories such as the concept of literariness and literary value, the 
concept of the aesthetic, the role of literature and the relationship between literature and 
culture. 
 
Consider the following alternatives 
I-Including these new literatures in the school syllabus, and the cannon, is considered as 
politically correct. 
II- Many times, though included in the syllabus, these literatures maintain their marginal 
status. 
III-Canonical literature should not be taught any longer. 
IV-What actually matters is not ‘what’ is taught, but ‘how’ it is taught. 
V- Concepts, such as literary value, should be reconsidered. 
 
Choose the Correct Alternative: 
 
a. I, III, V 
 
b. I, II, III, IV, V 
 
c. II, IV 
 
d. I

1. Read the excerpt below about using technology in the classroom, 
then read the statements about the text and after choose the 
alternative that only presents correct statements about the text. 
 
 
Technology Can Streamline Tedious Tasks 
Taking attendance, tracking grades and even answering common 
student questions can take up a lot of a teacher’s time. Adding 
technology to the classroom can help eliminate some of these tasks, 
freeing the teacher to focus on delivering quality lessons to the 
class. Programs like Top Hat, for instance, allow a teacher to manage 
tests securely in a digital environment that automatically grades and 
tracks them, while also allowing greater interaction with students 
and collaboration in the classroom. 
Teachers Fear Adding More Screen Time 
Today’s students are getting far more screen time then they should 
have. According to the Common Sense Census: Media Use by Tweens and 
Teens study, students ages 8 through 12 spend an average of six 
hours of time daily on screens for entertainment. This increases to 
almost nine hours for high school and upper middle school 
students. Adding technology in the classroom may add more screen 
time to that statistic. While the screens are used educationally, the 
overall impact of screen time on the brain is going to increase. 
 
I- A tecnologia pode ajudar o professor com algumas tarefas que 
antes eram tediosas e demoradas, como por exemplo: acompanhar 
notas, responder perguntas dos alunos etc.

II- Há programas que auxiliam o professor a gerenciar testes, além 
disso permitem maior interação com os alunos e garantem maior 
colaboração em sala de aula. 
III-O outro lado da tecnologia é que o tempo de exposição pode ser 
nocivo aos alunos e professores.

1. Read the excerpt below about the academic writing features, then 
read the statements about the text and after choose the alternative 
that only presents correct statements about the text. 
 
Formal writing requires considerable effort to construct meaningful 
sentences, paragraphs, and arguments that make the text easy to 
comprehend. In general this means that conversational English 
should be avoided and facts and figures should be presented in a 
clear manner. Academic texts should be factual, concise and 
accurate. Choose words precisely and carefully so that the reader 
can accurately understand the concepts within the text. 
It is important to remember that academic texts are written with an 
academic audience in mind and your writing style needs to conform 
to the conventions of the field you are studying.

I- O texto acadêmico deve ser formal, com frases e parágrafos bem 
construídos para facilitar a compreensão do texto. 
II- Os argumentos devem ser significativos. 
III- O texto deve estar em conformidade com as convenções da área 
que se está estudando.

1. Read the text below by Ian Johnston on “comedy”. 
 
The terms comedy and tragedy commonly refer to the ways in 
which dramatic conflicts are resolved. In comedy, the confusion 
ends when everyone recognizes what hasbeen going on, learns 
from it, forgives, forgets, and re-establishes his or her identity in the 
smoothly functioning social group (which may return to the original 
normality or may be setting up a better situation than the one the 
group started with). Comedies typically end with a group 
celebration, especially one associated with a betrothal or wedding, 
often accompanied by music and dancing The emphasis is on the 
reintegration of everyone into the group, a recommitment to their 
shared life together. If there has been a clearly disruptive presence 
in the action, a source of anti-social discord, then that person 
typically has reformed his ways, has been punished, or is banished 
from the celebration. Thus, the comic celebration is looking forward 
to a more meaningful communal life (hence the common ending for 
comedies: "And they lived happily ever after"). 
 
 
Consider the following alternatives on the text above: 
 
I-Comedies are organized around dramatic conflicts 
II-In comedies, order is restored through reconciliation. 
III-In general, comedies end with a wedding or a celebration 
IV-People who disrupted society are punished or banned from the 
celebration 
V-This celebration puts forward the importance of living 
harmoniously in a community

1. Read the text below on the teaching of literature and the formation 
of literary canons: 
 
The ways literatures and, in particular, foreign literatures are 
framed and interpreted are of the outmost importance in the 
educational process because the discourse of literature ‘may give us 
entry to the performativity of cultures as instantiated in narrative‘ 
(Spivak 2003:13); it has a marked affective element, due to the 
‘metaphoric/symbolic use of language’ (Tiffin 1996:145) and 
because, as Achebe (1978:95) noted, ‘If art may dispense with the 
constraining exactitudes of literal truth, it does acquire in return 
incalculable powers of persuasion in the imagination‘. This 
illustrates how persuasive literary discourse can be in the sense that 
it very much influences and determines the way of thinking and of 
approaching both one’s own culture and other cultures. However, 
the agency promoted by literature can be either progressive or 
regressive: the foreign literature syllabus can be regarded as either 
a way to shorten distances among cultures or a way to reproduce 
unequal social relationships. As Achebe (1978:98) points out, ‘…not 
all fictions are equally useful or desirable’ in all cultural contexts. His 
remark is particularly relevant in the case of literatures in European 
national languages since the contents of these disciplines, as taught 
in different parts of the world, both former colonies and Third 
World Countries, still bear marks of the colonial outlook on the 
divide between hegemonic/marginalized cultures that from a 
literary perspective translates as canonical/non-canonical literary 
traditions. 
 
Read the statements below on the teaching of literature and the 
literary canons. 
 
I-The metaphoric quality of literary language is highly persuasive. 
II- To a certain extent, it determines the way of thinking and acting. 
III-The agency imbued in literature can be progressive or regressive: 
they shorten 
distances among cultures or build barriers among cultures. 
IV- They can help pull down or build barriers among cultures

1. Read the excerpt below about the communicative approach, then 
read the statements about the text and after choose the alternative 
that only presents correct statements about the text. 
 
 
Communicating meaning is the main goal in CLT, and language is 
seen as a tool for learners to reach this aim. For this reason, the 
syllabus of courses that adopt a Communicative Approach to 
teaching favour lesson aims that will help students practice and 
develop their linguistic competence, rather than their grammatical 
competence. In order to achieve this, different types of syllabi were 
created, amongst them, the functional-notional syllabus, that 
enables learners to focus on the meaning (function) of language and 
practice it in a realistic setting: 
Introducing yourself, ordering food at a restaurant, making a hotel 
reservation, making a complaint etc. 
https://www.whatiselt.com/single-post/2018/08/23/What-is-the-Communicative-
Approach 
 
I- O objetivo principal da abordagem comunicativa é a comunicação. 
II- Para se atingir o objetivo comunicacional da abordagem, adotam-
se situações comunicativas, como por exemplo: fazer reserva em 
hotel, pedir comida em restaurantes, fazer reclamação etc. 
III- Nessa abordagem, o professor é o centro do processo, pois é ele 
que detém o conhecimento.
