De acordo com o texto, assinale a alternativa que revela qual foi a maior descoberta do estudo em questão
sobre o aquecimento global: The world's oceans have warmed 50 percent faster over the last 40 years than
previously thought due to climate change, Australian and US climate researchers reported Wednesday. Higher
ocean temperatures expand the volume of water, contributing to a rise in sea levels that is submerging small
island nations and threatening to wreak havoc in low-lying, densely-populated delta regions around the globe.
Trying to figure out how much each of these factors contributes to rising sea levels is critically important to
understanding climate change, and forecasting future temperature rises, scientists say. Being so, new studies
have been done in order to investigate the situation. A new study, led by Catia Domingues, of the Centre for
Australian Weather and Climate Research, is the first to reconcile the models with observed data. Using new
techniques to assess ocean temperatures to a depth of 700 metres (2,300 feet) from 1961 to 2003, it shows that
thermal warming contributed to a 0.53 millimetre-per-year rise in sea levels rather than the 0.32 mm rise
reported by the IPCC. According to the text, what was the main finding of the study?
 a. That ocean waters have warmed faster than scientists had previously thought.
b. That the warming of the world's oceans is not a threat.
c. That not enough is being done about global warming.
e. that the mountains will melt into sweet water oceans
d. That the oceans will dry entirely

could do this. We could ship them down,' and I said, no, we could do this locally. There's got to be a need, and

Leia o texto que se segue e escolha a alternativa que revela a colocação da culinária inglesa em relação às
outras num âmbito mundial de acordo com a Restaurant Magazine: BRITISH FOOD. A British restaurant that
serves bacon and egg ice cream has been voted the best place in the world to eat in Restaurant magazine list of
The World¿s 50 Best Restaurants. The Fat Duck restaurant, which was runner-up last year, claimed the coveted
top spot. Owner and head chef Heston Blumenthal opened his restaurant ten years ago and soon developed a
reputation for highly experimental and unorthodox dishes. The menu includes leather, oak and tobacco
chocolates, sardine on toast sorbet, snail porridge, and mousse dipped in liquid nitrogen. He is self-taught and
has pioneered the art of molecular gastronomy - experiments with chemistry, physics, food and flavour that
result in unique and unusual taste combinations. Nearly 600 international restaurant owners, chefs and
journalists participated in the poll to rank the best restaurants worldwide. A further thirteen British restaurants
made it onto the elite eateries list, four in the top ten. This gives the home of fish and chips an unusual
reputation as a culinary paradise. Britain is infamous for its bland and uninspiring food, which is obscurred by
the more sophisticated palates of its French neighbours. However, it seems that thongs are changing: France
had only eight restaurants in the top fifty and London was named in March by Gourmet magazine as the
Gourmet Capital of the World. Ella Johnston, editor of Restaurant magazine, said British people are now
becoming more adventurous eaters.
