from all the junk food. After years of this “sleep eating,” 
her nerves were so jangled that she became unglued at 
the slightest upset. “Someone would knock over the salt 
shaker and I’d go into orbit,” she says. It wasn’t until 2001 
that Egemo, now 37, found a doctor who could tell her 
what her problem was and how to treat it.
Egemo’s condition is called sleep-related eating 
disorder (SRED), and it’s one of two night eating problems 
that doctors are just beginning to take seriously. The other 
is night eating syndrome (NES), in which patients wake 
multiple times during the night and are unable to fall asleep 
unless they eat something. Although the two differ in some 
important ways — most notably, whether the person is 
conscious or not — they share some similarities. […]

On social media 
[Pet Shop Boys]
When you care about the issues of the day 
And check your facts on Wikipedia 
You can and get into an argument right away 
If you’re on social media 
The world is changing everywhere 
With a speed that couldn’t be speedier 
But you feel so ahead of the curve 
When you’re on social media 
When you’re on social media (4x) 
You’re part of the conversation 
You’re there in every debate
From football to religion to contemporary art 
You’re ready to pontificate
While democracy is losing its way 
And greed is getting greedier 
Console yourself with a selfie or two 
And post them on social media 
When you’re on social media (4x) 
My likes are in the thousands 
My tweets are being retweeted 
My family pics or holiday snaps 
With total love are greeted 
It’s so nice when people like you 
You’re feeling hashtag blessed 
You’re part of the conversation
It’s like you passed the test 
When you’re on social media (4x) 
And sometimes you can fuel the debate 
By biting the hand that feeds you
Expressing pure anonymous hate 
When you’re on social media 
When you’re on social media (4x) 
I feel so empowered

2 Unicamp Uma das páginas eletrônicas de uma organi-
zação sem fins lucrativos norte-americana (TV Turnoff 
Network) contém uma série de citações de pessoas 
ilustres. Algumas dessas citações foram utilizadas 
para compor o texto abaixo.
TV-Turnoff Network is a national nonprofit 
organization that encourages children and adults 
to watch much less television in order to promote 
healthier lives and communities.
We have reconstructed the Tower of Babel, and it 
is a television antenna: a thousand voices producing a 
daily parody of democracy, in which everyone’s opinion 
is afforded equal weight regardless of substance or merit. 
– Ted Koppel
I find television very educating. Every time somebody 
turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book. 
– Groucho Marx
The one function TV news performs very well is that 
when there is no news we give it to you with the same 
emphasis as if there were. – David Brinkley

Dixon posted a picture of herself having breakfast, the 
internet turned nasty. “The best of days start with a smile 
and positive thoughts. And pancakes. And strawberries”, 
Exercícios complementares
Dixon wrote on her Instagram feed. The post was reposted 
on Twitter. “Instagram is a ridiculous lie factory made to 
make us all feel inadequate”, wrote Nathan from Cardiff. 
His post, which has garnered more than 111,000 likes 
(22 times as many as Dixon’s original) and almost 25,000 
retweets, prompted a wave of criticism, with comments 
going like “Fakelife!”. 
Instagram looks like the friendliest social network 
imaginable. But, for a growing number of users – and 
mental health experts – the very positivity of Instagram 
is precisely the problem. The site encourages its users to 
present an upbeat, attractive image that others may find 
at best misleading and at worse harmful. Instagram makes 
you worry that everyone is perfect – except you.

4 Fuvest 2017 A study carried out by Lauren Sherman of the 
University of California and her colleagues investigated 
how use of the “like” button in social media affects the 
brains of teenagers lying in body scanners. 
Thirty-two teens who had Instagram accounts were 
asked to lie down in a functional magnetic resonance 
imaging (fMRI) scanner. This let Dr. Sherman monitor their 
brain activity while they were perusing both their own 
Instagram photos and photos that they were told had been 
added by other teenagers in the experiment. In reality, 
Dr. Sherman had collected all the other photos, which 
included neutral images of food and friends as well as 
many depicting risky behaviours like drinking, smoking 
and drug use, from other peoples’ Instagram accounts. 
The researchers told participants they were viewing 
photographs that 50 other teenagers had already seen andendorsed with a “like” in the laboratory. 
The participants were more likely themselves to “like” 
photos already depicted as having been “liked” a lot than 
they were photos depicted with fewer previous “likes”. 
When she looked at the fMRI results, Dr. Sherman found 
that activity in the nucleus accumbens, a hub of reward 
circuitry in the brain, increased with the number of “likes” 
that a photo had.

Knee repair
New ways of fixing the most troublesome joint
Knees are the bane of all athletes, but they’re 
particularly nettlesome to aging amateurs, whose joints 
have endured years of pounding. Fortunately, some of 
the technology inspired by doctors who treat professional 
athletes is trickling down to weekend warriors. Scientists are 
working on a number of strategies to coax the body’s healing 
powers to hasten the repair of damaged knee cartilage.
The knee is particularly tricky because it gets such little 
blood from the circulatory system, so it’s slow to heal. A 
technique called microfracture surgery is designed to draw 
blood to the injury. It involves making tiny holes in the 
bone on either side of the knee socket so that blood from 
inside the bone can seep up and nourish torn cartilage, 
supplying it with stem cells needed to repair. Doctors have 
been refining the technique for the past decade or so, and 
it’s now achieving its mainstream. The problem is that it’s 
difficult to control exactly where cartilage is replaced. With 
a new technique, called chondrocyte-transplant therapy, 
doctors avoid this problem by removing cartilage cells from 
the knee, growing them in a culture and transplanting the 
new tissue directly in the knee. This procedure, though, 
calls for opening up the knee twice, which is costly and 
makes for a long recovery. […]

 Uma linguagem neutra
Com as contribuições dos estudos em gênero, o uso dos pronomes he e she tornou-se algo a ser discutido por diversas instituições de ensino de 
modo a evitar que qualquer desconforto fosse causado nos casos em que uma linguagem neutra seria a mais adequada. Observe o seguinte trecho 
sobre uma instituição estadunidense que se destaca pelo seu esforço em adotar tal tipo de linguagem:
Sarah Lawrence College [...] is one of many conscientious American institutions currently struggling to devise guidelines 
for the use of gender-neutral language on campus that avoids cisnormative presumption. [...] To be cisnormative is to assume 
that people identify with the gender of the sex they were born with. Sarah Lawrence’s solution [...] is to ask everyone to do his 
utmost (sorry, your utmost) to use the second person instead of the third person. When that can’t be done, they recommend 
the use of “non-gendered nouns as needed (student, person, individual).” [...] They advocate the broader use of the plural 
pronouns “they” and “them” to “replace singular gendered pronouns (he, she, him, her), even when it’s incorrect. […]
