Gabarito Comentado
A common formal letter presents "Dear
Mr" followed by the last name of the recipient,
if you have this piece of information. It usually
ends with "Yours sincerely", "Yours truly" or
"Yours faithfully". It does not use any
abbreviations, just like Harry's acceptance
letter. Both may be informative or not.
However, the main difference between a
common formal letter and the acceptance
letter is that the latter does not include the
addresses (attention: they may present the
addresses, but the acceptance letter usually
provides the position of the people who are
sending the letter: Dean of the university,
Head of Department and so on.)

Have a look at this piece of writing about the film
Joker (2019) played by Joaquin Phoenix by the
director Todd Philips:
Gotham City: heroes and villains
Having reflected on the complex universe of
Gotham, we can now observe the characteristics
of the Joker (2019) by Todd Phillips, who presents
Bruce Wayne as a child on the background of the
story and takes us to the stage in which Arthur
Fleck becomes the most feared clown in the world
of graphic novels. Gotham is a critical metaphor of
New York, presenting excessive urban violence,
great difference between social classes (in which
the poor becomes poorer, the commerce is going
bankrupt, people are unemployed), and in which
the plot takes place around 1981 during the
garbage men's strike, giving the film an
environment of gloom and dirt. For us to Analyse
the Joker, we are going to work with the concept
of face by Goffman (1967) and the identity of the
post-modern era considering the notion of Stuart
Hall (2003) and Bauman (1998).
Consider the style, vocabulary and development.

Gabarito Comentado
A paper is something less elaborate, although
it requires a lot of research, the vocabulary
tends to be more simple, as it is usually
developed by students or people who are not
experts and it does not include the line of
study it will follow. A blog is usually something
more personal or connected to the
corporative world. A journal is a collection of
articles put together by experts; and, an email
is short, straight to the point and does not
usually analyze works. An article, on the other
hand, which is the case in question, is written
by experts, is elaborate, scientifically detailed,
and provides the line of study that is going to
be used. In the case of the article in question:
the concept of face by Goffman (1967) and
the identity of the post-modern era
considering the notion of Stuart Hall (2003)
and Bauman (1998).

An essay is a piece of non-fiction work written by
someone who wants to convey their thoughts to
the reader. Even though essays can be formal or

The verb tense should be maintained
throughout the essay, otherwise, your essay
may be confusing. They are not necessarily
connected to figures of speech, the purpose
of the essay, its punctuation and, as
mentioned before, should be only one and not
change according to narration.

The thesis statement is the last sentence in a
paragraph, which is concise and coherent,
and states the main focus of what the essay,
what it is about. It is not the first sentence in a
paragraph presenting the main topic (that is
TS). It is not a paragraph, nor the focus of the
TS and it doesn't extra information which is
not the focus of the main paragraph.

Have a look at this piece of writing about feminism
in The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath:
Feminism in The Bell Jar
The Bell Jar is an autobiographical novel written by
Sylvia Plath, in 1963. The main character is Plath
herself, as she reflects on her experience of being
married to Ted Hughes and herself as a female
writer. The novel tells the story of nineteen-year-
old Esther Greenwood, which became an
important work among feminists as it was tragic
and realistic. Esther has to deal with prejudice and
unacceptance from her family and has to fight to
accept herself and her value in society in spite of
stereotypes. The theme of the novel - how women
are dealt with in society - is the most topic of the
feminist agenda.
Adapted from: https://custom-
writing.org/samples/feminism-in-the-bell-jar.pdf
Considering its style, vocabulary and
development, how would it be classified?
Formal letter.
Opening of an essay with an anecdote.
Description of a surprising event.
A paper.
An article.
Resposta correta
A
B
C
Parabéns, você selecionou a
alternativa correta. Confira o gabarito
comentado!
Gabarito Comentado
It does not present neither the style nor the
layout of a letter and does not present an
anecdote as a way to open an essay. Also, it
does not describe a shocking event, sinceit is
describing and summarizing the novel by
Sylvia Plath. If it were an article, the
vocabulary would be more elaborate and the
line of study it would be used for the analysis
of the writing. Therefore, considering the
style, vocabulary and development, it best fits
the characteristics of a paper, probably
written (well-written) by a student.

Imagine the context of a chat conversation, in
which two friends are discussing divergent views
on some matter. By using the onomatopoeic sound
"HAHAHAHAHAHA", what is the writer doing?
Committing an FTA (Face Threatening
Act).
Save someone's face.
Make the chat fun.
D
E
Make someone lose face.
Be ironic.
Resposta correta
Parabéns, você selecionou a

Gabarito Comentado
Most of the times, the onomatopoeic sound is
usually used to lighten the mood, soften the
message. This way, it is not supposed to
commit an FTA or make someone lose face
(which is the same). The idea is not supposed
to make the chat fun and, often, it does not
provide irony.

This type of letter is a great example of what
Bakhtin called "relatively stable". The three
phrases that stand out - Dear Mr. Potter, We
are pleased to inform you, Yours sincerely -
 are characteristics of this type of letter. They
are very much used without any change,
unlike more personal information, such as
A

C
D
E
asking for the owl, informing the enclosing of
a list or the titles of the sender.

"Those who believe in pinning the Ten
Commandments on the bulletin wall at public
schools is the cure for the social problems
nowadays will, for sure, be perplexed with the
case of John George Haigh" (Schechter, 2003, p.
274).
SCHECHTER, H. Serial Killers: a anatomia do mal.
Rio de Janeiro, Darkside, 2003.
Considering the opening paragraph above, what
does it consist of?
A question.
A quotation.
An anecdote.
A reference to a well-known phrase.
A surprising, shocking or bizarre event.

The paragraph shows and creates curiosity on
the reader. By saying that the Ten
Commandments at school is not valid and
that, even though the Commandments are
there, mentioning that the audience would be
perplexed by John G. Haigh, certainly
surprises the reader and also sounds bizarre.
It is not a question, quotation, anecdote, or a
reference to a well-known phrase.

When writing formal letters, someone can use
"Dear Sir or Madam" when they do not know who
they are writing to, but they may use the name of
the person if they do. Bearing this information in
mind, choose the correct alternative.
I. Nowadays we use "Miss" for single women and
"Mrs." for married women. 
II. Be careful to use "Mr." and the person's last
name, when addressing a man.
III. "Mrs." is followed by the person's last name.
Statements I and III are correct.
Statements I and II are correct.
Statements II and III are correct.
Only statement II is correct.
Only statement III is correct.
Resposta correta

In the past we used "Miss" for single women
and "Mrs." for married women. Nowadays,
however, "Ms." is a title that would serve to
both possibilities (married or single women)
and is used instead. So the only correct
statement is II.
