The sentences below describe academic research. Analyse the verb choices and structures and choose the
alternative which best compares them:
(1) The term was coined by the aforementioned linguist.
(2) Over the last decade, various studies have been carried out in order to investigate such concepts.
The verb tenses in the sentences differ because the first one mentions a single study, while the second
refers to areas of inquiry during a period of time.
Both assertions were written in the active voice, so as to highlight the voices of authority responsible for
the studies.
The present simple tense would be more suitable for the first sentence.
Only the verb tense in the second structure is adequate for scientific papers, as it alludes to more voices of
authority.
The assertions do not differ in terms of style nor in relation to verb tense choice.

The paragraph below elaborates on the notion of an individual's freedom according to The Universal Declaration
of Human Rights. Read it and choose the correct option regarding its content and structure.
"The Universal Declaration of Human Rights affirms that the exercise of a person's rights and freedoms may be
subject to certain limitations, which must be determined by law, solely for the purpose of securing due
recognition of the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order
and the general welfare in a democratic society." Retrieved from:
https://www.ohchr.org/documents/publications/factsheet2rev.1en.pdf
According to the document, in democratic nations an individual's rights should always outweigh general
welfare, which is why the simple present tense is used.
The simple present tense is justified since it consists of a widespread document among nations, assertively
stating rights.
The document does not have legal prerogative, which is why the use of the simple present tense is not
adequate in such a context.
The document states that individuals have the right to defy the law to guarantee their freedom, as long as
they are guided by moral standards. Thus, the present tense is adequate in the extract.
Since the bill was published decades ago and its assertions have been respected worldwide since then, the
present perfect tense would be more adequate in the extract.

Six components play different roles in narratives. Abstract, orientation, evaluation, complicating action, coda and
resolution refer to parts of narrative texts. Choose the option that best classifies the following excerpt from
hooks' narrative:
It was the longing for release that compelled the writing but concurrently it was the joy of reunion that enabled
me to see that the act of writing one's autobiography is a way to find again that aspect of self and experience
that may no longer be an actual part of one's life but is a living memory shaping and informing the present.
Autobiographical writing was a way for me to evoke the particular experience of growing up southern and black
in segregated communities. It was a way to recapture the richness of southern black culture.

or False (F).
"Over the last several years, peak cuttlefish season has resulted in hotels and restaurants enjoying full capacity,
and the injection of tourism funds has been a welcome boost to an economy mainly reliant on steel production.
While there's been talk of building more hotels to handle an influx of tourists, cuttlefish season only lasts three
to four months - so how do tourism operators sustain themselves during the rest of the year?"

03260 - A ARGUMENTAÇÃO
8. Ref.: 6114245 Pontos: 0,00 / 1,00
This paragraph shows part of a text which tackles widely spread notions on the concept of deep learning. Analyze
the expressions and strategies used by the author and choose the alternative regarding the prothesis or
proposition he defends in the extract.
"One could be excused for assuming that deep learning had or will soon usurp all credible work in reasoning,
artificial intelligence, and statistics, but like most "meme" class broad generalizations the concept does not hold
up to scrutiny. Memes do not generally matter since the experts will always know better; but in the case of
Bayesian software like Stan and PyMC3, even their developers and advocates bemoan the apparent dominance
of deep learning [...] The facts, however, do not support the assumed dominance of deep learning in science
upon closer examination. This letter simply makes the argument by the crudest of possible metrics, citation
count, that once the discipline of Computer Science is subtracted, Bayesian software accounts for nearly a third
of research citations." Retrieved from https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ail2.62
The author uses the contrasting connectors "but" and "however", as well as allusions to logos to introduce
a counterargument towards the idea that deep learning will dominate his field.
The verb "excuses" and the adjectives "simply" and "crudest" introduce the thesis that deep learning will
become prevailing in the author¿s area of inquiry.
The author's core argument is that neither deep learning nor other softwares are currently relevant,
according to myriad citations.

The adverb "simply" and the adjective "crudest" suggest a derogatory tone against the thesis of the
dominance of bayesian softwares.

Choose the option which best describes the argumentative strategies employed in the paragraph:
"As in any specialised field, there are well-known approaches and techniques for analytics and visualisation that
are already used by the community. We propose that our solution starts with these." Retrieved from
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ail2.21
The authors appeal to logos when using their "solutions" to argue against their academic "community".
The authors support their following claims appealing to the ethos of their field "community", as the
expression "well-known" indicates when characterizing their methodology.
The use of the simple present tense in the second sentence is inadequate, since it refers to a single study
carried out long before.
The use of the pronoun "we" is a hedging strategy to denote distancing in their argumentation.
The authors resort to an overgeneralization to argue against their peers.
10. Ref.: 6114157 Pontos: 1,00 / 1,00
This extract is part of a paper on children¿s knowledge of words which are polysemic. Read it and choose and
match the numbered structures with the hedging strategies employed by the authors.
(1) Research with adults shows that wordforms with more related meanings are processed and learnt more
easily than wordforms with unrelated meanings in a variety of semantic tasks (Eddington and Tokowicz 2015;
Maciejewski et al. 2020). There is also some suggestion that in an L2, adults (2) may more readily accept
related meanings of homonyms than unrelated meanings (Maby 2016). Whilst there appears to be very limited
data on this topic with children, (3) one recent study suggested that children and adults learn the meanings
of novel homonyms better when their two meanings are related than if they are unrelated (Floyd and Goldberg
2020). Therefore, it (4) seems that more highly related word meanings may be easier to learn than unrelated
word meanings.
