 2a Questão (Ref.: 201507699117) Acerto: 1,0 / 1,0 
Algumas pessoas moram algum tempo no exterior e, ao retornarem à terra natal, acreditam que poderão obter 
sucesso na carreira de tradutor por conta do conhecimento que detém da língua estrangeira. Elas acreditam, 
ainda, que as eventuais dúvidas relacionadas ao idioma poderão ser facilmente resolvidas com a ajuda de um 
bom dicionário. Esta crença ratifica a ideia equivocada de que, para a tarefa tradutória, 
 
 
 
o tradutor terá de recorrer a conhecimentos que transcendem os limites da língua. 
 o conhecimento meramente linguístico será sempre suficiente. 
 
os mecanismos de inferência são ativados com bastante frequência.

Read the following paragraph and, in your own words , say what is it about: (You don´t need to 
translate it word by word ¿ MAIN IDEA) A Once In a Life Time Experience The one day I spent in 
Morocco, Africa was an experience of a lifetime. When I finally reached Morocco and got off 
the bus, there were four little girls standing shoeless in the hot sun. After I swallowed my 
tears, I could not even try to picture this in America as it is not something you often see in the 
U.S. Meanwhile my tourist guide instructed me not to give them money as it encouraged the 
children to beg; however, I was wearing four silver bracelets. As I walked over to the girls, their 
eyes watched my every move. Then I kneeled down to their level while I gave each girl a 
bracelet. They stood there gleaming at me, for they were pleased. I felt completely in disbelief 
that this tiny gesture could mean so much. Though this experience was upsetting, and a huge 
culture shock, it will stay with me forever. ~© Kayla Marie Anfinson 2005~ 
Resposta: Uma experiência única de vida. Um único dia que passei no Marrocos (África) foi 
uma experiência para toda a vida. Quando desci do ônibus tinham 4 garotas descalças no sol 
quente. Depois de secar minhas lágrimas, eu não conseguiria imaginar esta mesma cena na 
América, pois não é uma coisa que você vê com frequência nos Estados Unidos. Meu guia me 
instruiu a não dar dinheiro para evitar que as crianças ficassem pedindo. Eu estava usando 4 
braceletes de prata. Quando passei pelas garotas, os olhos delas acompanhavam cada 
movimento meu. Então eu ajoelhei e dei para cada garota 1 bracelete. Elas ficaram 
hipnotizadas e agradecidas. Eu não acreditei que esse simples gesto poderia significar tanto. 
Passar por isso foi triste e um grande “choque cultural", e ficará comigo para sempre. 
 
 
In your own words, COMMENT on the following excerpt (you don't need to translate all the 
text): ''The Rosetta Stone is a stone with writing on it in two languages (Egyptian and Greek), 
using three scripts (hieroglyphic, demotic and Greek). The Rosetta Stone is written in three 
scripts because when it was written, there were three scripts being used in Egypt. The first was 
hieroglyphic which was the script used for important or religious documents. The second was 
demotic which was the common script of Egypt. The third was Greek which was the language 
of the rulers of Egypt at that time. The Rosetta Stone was written in all three scripts so that the 
priests, government officials and rulers of Egypt could read what it said". 
Resposta: O texto traz informações sobre a Pedra de Rosetta e as línguas que foram utilizadas 
na mensagem contida na pedra. 
Roman Jakobson (1959) was one of the first linguists to consider the contributions of linguistics 
to the study of translation. In his text (On Linguistic Aspect of Translation), he deals with issues 
that are crucial in understanding the translation process suchas INTERLINGUAL,
