"I had met a young black man. We were having an affair".
 "I remembered my mother's hope chest, with its wonderful odor of cedar, and thought about her
taking the most precious items and placing them there for safekeeping".
"Within the world of my childhood, we held on to the legacy of a distinct black culture by listening to
the elders tell their stories".
 "it was also interesting to read the narrative in its entirety after I had completed the work. It had not
occurred to me that bringing one's past, one's memories together in a complete narrative would allow
one to view them from a different perspective, not as singular isolated events but as part of a
continuum".
"He drank often, smoked cigarettes, and always on the few occasions that we met him, he held us
children in tight embraces. It was the memory of those embraces--of the way I hated and longed to
resist them-that I recalled".

Explicação:
Evaluations are parts of the narrative in which the narrator shares his feelings and viewpoints on the narrated
events with readers, sharing with them their emotional effects. In this excerpt: "it was also interesting to read
the narrative in its entirety after I had completed the work (¿)", hooks tells her readers that writing her
memories allowed her to view her own story from a different perspective.

There are some basic components that account for the narrative's internal structure. Mark the alternative that
presents a correct statement about a narrative's features:
Actions narrated in the past tend to make experiences sound fresh and vivid, charging them with more
emotional tension.
Present tenses figure among the most recurrent verb forms within narratives.
A narrative¿s temporal juncture is always strictly organized by the chronological sequencing of events
that make up the plot.
 The Past Perfect is typically used in narratives to signal which action came about first.

 When a logical cause-and-effect relationship unites the chain of events, the narrative tends to sound
more far-fetched.
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:56:12
 
 
Explicação:
The past tenses are commonly used in narratives. To convey that a past action happened before another one,
the past perfect is chosen. Therefore, the past perfect plays an important function in the sequencing of past
actions, since it points out those events that happened at an earlier point in time. Cause-and-effect
relationships make the narrative sound more plausible and not the other way around. What¿s more, to make
experiences sound fresh and vivid, the historical present is usually preferred. The correct option is then: "The
Past Perfect is typically used in narratives to signal which action came about first."

The graph below is concerned with a comparison of food security/insecurity in Brazil between 2004 and 2020.
Choose the alternative which better describes its data:
Retrieved from: http://olheparaafome.com.br/VIGISAN_AF_National_Survey_of_Food_Insecurity.pdf
The percentage of households affected by severe hunger has slumped sharply from 2013 to 2020.
The proportion of Brazilian families with proper food security tops three fifths.
In 2020, the proportion of households that faced mild food insecurity was approximately one tenth.
The country faced a staggering upsurge in moderate food insecurity in 2004, whilst there was a
decreasing trend in 2018.
 In 2020, less than half of Brazilian households were food secure and there has been a steep rise in
food insecurity since 2010.
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:56:24
 
 
Explicação:
The percentage linked to the 2020 survey is below 50% ("44,8%"). Besides, the increase in the yellow, red and
blue points and rates related to food insecurity indicate a rising trend in such issue.

This wiki entry describes a typical dish named "ceviche". Read it and choose the correct alternative:
"Because the dish is eaten raw, and not cooked with heat, it must be prepared fresh and consumed
immediately to minimize the risk of food poisoning. Ceviche is often eaten as an appetizer; if eaten as a main
dish, it is usually accompanied by side dishes that complement its flavors, such as sweet potato, lettuce,
maize, avocado, or cooking banana." Retrieved from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceviche
According to such description, about a quarter of the ingredients are raw.
 The expression "accompanied by" introduces a componential description in the definition.
 It consists of a process description on how to decrease food poisoning rates caused by the consumption
of the dish.
This description provides an account of consuming rates of the dish.
Such an entry provides a chronological description of a ceviche recipe.
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:56:35
 
 
Explicação:
Indeed, when listing the complements of ceviche introduced by the expression "accompanied by", the author
introduces the elements and traits that usually compose the dish. Therefore, the expression introduces a
componential element to the entry. There¿s no chronological description entailed in the entry, nor is any process
being described. Furthermore, the dish is completely raw and there is no consuming rate presented.

Read the conclusion of an expository text on the importance of cuttlefish tourism in the city of Whyalla, in
Australia. Afterwards, choose the alternative containing the writing strategy employed by the author.
"While cuttlefish tourism in Whyalla is only in its second decade, the city hopes it will become a viable long-
term income source.
As for the cuttlefish themselves, we can only hope they continue their ostentatious, sexy shenanigans, proving
that life can be as colourful and wild as you want it to be."

The author simply paraphrases the thesis statement of the text, explicitly reassuring it.
The author closes the text with a literary quote which dialogues with the thesis at hand.
 The author provides a glimpse on what might happen in the local economy in the future.
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:56:51
 
 
Explicação:
The verbs "hope", "will" and "can" account for a possible future towards the local economy that the author and
residents wish becomes a reality. It is also worth of note that he includes himself and the readers in the
prediction as well, when employing the subject pronoun "we".

The Simple Present tense employed in the verbs "remain" and "be" regard actions which started in the
past and with noticeable current consequences. The Present Perfect in the verb "fight" refers to past
activities in a precise time period.
 The Simple Present Tense in the verbs "remain" and "be" account for progressive actions in the
present, whilst the Present Perfect in the verb "fight" refers to an action that occurred in an indefinite
moment in the past.
 The Simple Present tense employed in the verbs "remain" and "be" accounts for a factual exposition,
while the Present Perfect in the verb "fight" refers to an action that occurred in an indefinite moment in
the past.
The future simple should be employed in the verb "be", insofar as it refers to a future exhibition.
The Simple Present tense employed in the verbs "remain" and "be" accounts for a factual exposition,
but the Simple Past tense would be more adequate in the verb "fight".
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:57:22
 
 
Explicação:
Indeed, the author makes factual historical claims using the verbs "remain" and "be", to be later evidenced with
data. Therefore, the Simple Present tense is adequate. Moreover, he does not clarify when the fights he
mentioned occurred, allowing for the use of a Present Perfect structure.

Read the introduction of an expository text titled "After Fleeing Ukraine, LGBTQ Refugees Search for Safety in
Countries Hostile to Their Rights". Then, choose the option containing its textual genre, according to its
observable features.
"For Vitaly and his wife, it was the bright light that woke them up at 4:30 am on Feb. 24. Then came the
crashes of the explosions, four in a row, shaking their home in Odessa. They checked their phones and saw
frantic texts from friends panicking that Russia had launched a war on Ukraine. They each grabbed a bag, got
into their car, and drove west."

The paragraph is indicative of a feature story, since it provides a proposition and summary of the
content of the article at the very outset.
The extract is structured by means of a comparison among the couple and other people in contrasting
situations.
 This paragraph is structured in a common format of inverted pyramid, exposing a set of actions which
add a human touch to data.
 It consists of a feature story, since it intends to engage readers and foster empathy providing an
exposition of particular life experiences connected with the theme of the publication.
Such narration is a typical trait of an axis problem- solution.
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:57:44
 
 
Explicação:
Instead of making general expository claims, the author attempts to engage readers by introducing the
particular stories of two people who are probably not known by the projected public: Vitaly and his wife. This
strategy is common in feature stories. Therefore, the correct answer is: "It consists of a feature story, since it
intends to engage readers and foster empathy providing an exposition of particular life experiences connected
with the theme of the publication".

on your previous knowledge, choose the most suitable option to describe the following persuasive paragraph,
retrieved from a paper about the notion of smart cities.
"Both concepts have been considered independently in the recent decades - in theoretical and applied
literature - but little attention has been paid so far to the links between them. The research approach of the
paper is a combination of literature review and observation of case studies in Europe." Retrieved from
https://www.scirp.org/journal/paperinformation.aspx?paperid=114869
The authors state the relevance of their research by arguing against the validation of the "concepts"
mentioned.
 In this paragraph the authors review previous literature and establish a niche to be occupied by their
investigation.
The allusion to "case studies" was part of the literature review mentioned in the first sentence.
This extract is suitable for a section of Methodology, since it argues for the data generated by the
researchers in question.
The structure "attention has been paid to¿" supports the prestige of published literature in the area.
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:57:58
 
 
Explicação:
The structure "but little attention has been paid so far to¿" is indicative of flaws in previous works that need to
be addressed by the article, justifying its development and publication. The correct answer is then: "In this
paragraph the authors review previous literature and establish a niche to be occupied by their investigation".

Focusing on the effect of the covid-19 pandemic on marital relationships, Gaby Hinsliff's text is initiated by the
following introductory paragraph:
Love is not love, which alters when it alteration finds. It¿s a beautiful sentiment around which to build a
Shakespearean sonnet, but in real life not everyone adapts to the dramatic changes thrust upon them in a
pandemic with the apparent grace of Kate Garraway. The TV presenter's husband, Derek Draper, almost died
of Covid; he is now back home after months in intensive care, but needs round-the-clock nursing. He can
speak, but can't hold what most people would regard as a conversation. It cannot be the life or the marriage
either of them dreamed of in their early 50s. But as she said hopefully at the weekend, she thinks they have
found "a new way to be in love", a relationship of complete trust and reliance. "That¿s a positive thing to come
out of this, to have that certainty of each other. He and I are very close."
HINSLIFF, Gaby. The pandemic has taught us that love can bend without breaking. Disponível em: The
pandemic has taught us all that love can bend without breaking | Gaby Hinsliff | The Guardian. Acesso em: 15
fev. 2022.
Now, choose the option that best summarizes the strategies employed by the author to attract the readers¿
attention and introduce the topic of the text as a whole:
Hinsliff turns to characters from Shakespeare's sonnets to prove that "love can bend without breaking"
and couples can make it through the turbulent times imposed by the pandemic.
 Hinsliff starts with a quote from a Shakespearean sonnet that endorses the main point of her text, that
"love can bend without breaking", and recurs to the touching story of a resilient couple to confirm her
main argument.
Hinsliff provides statistics to validate the argument that marital relationships have been put to the test,
showing that even celebrities - such as Kate Garraway, a famous TV presenter - had her marriage
challenged by the hardships posed by covid-19.
Hinsliff promotes a balanced account of the hardships faced by couples during the pandemic, listing
reasons why some couples will not be as resilient as Kate Garraway and Derek Draper.
Hinsliff's introduction analyzes the pros and cons of the circumstances faced by most couples during
the covid-19 pandemic, looking into the advantages and disadvantages of resilience.
Respondido em 15/09/2022 11:58:14
 
 
Explicação:
The Shakespearean sonnet touches the heart of the question posed by the author, confirming her thesis that
"love can bend without breaking". Kate Garraway and Derek Draper's experience validates Hinsliff's argument
that love can win the battle against the turmoil imposed by the pandemic.

Choose the option that correctly identifies the topic statement of Hinsliff's conclusion:
And yet, at the not-quite-end of it all, here millions of us still are; still together, still faintly dazed by the whole
experience. But perhaps with a new understandingforged in crisis of what long-term love is all about. It¿s not
all Valentine¿s hearts and flowers, tables for two and tickets to Paris. It is absolutely about kindness, patience,
tolerance and the ability to pull together as a team in times of unexpected trouble. For love is not always love
that stays rigidly the same when circumstances around it change. Post-pandemic love is perhaps just as often
the kind that good-naturedly adapts, and is flexible enough to withstand a shock.

of unexpected trouble".
"But perhaps with a new understanding forged in crisis of what long-term love is all about".
 "Post-pandemic love is perhaps just as often the kind that good-naturedly adapts, and is flexible

Explicação:
The author's final remarks encapsulate her main point. Therefore, the topic statement is: "Post-pandemic love is
perhaps just as often the kind that good-naturedly adapts, and is flexible enough to withstand a shock".
Supporting paragraphs usually initiate with a topic statement, but, in this case, since it refers to the conclusion;
the statement which correctly summarizes the point of the paragraph is the last one.
