        Questão
	
	
	Assinale a alternativa INCORRETA:
		
	
	A recepção de sentido de um texto vai depender das experiências de vida e do conhecimento de mundo do leitor.
	
	A construção de sentido sofre influência de um maior ou menor conhecimento do código lingüístico do texto.
	
	O processo de leitura étambém um ato de criação, já que o leitor participa ativamente da constituição dos sentidos do texto.
	
	A leitura proporciona a quem lê um texto a capacidade de questionar, mas também de ser questionado, de rever seus conceitos.
	 
	Um leitor proficiente precisa, apenas, saber decodificar os códigos lingüísticos para que possa atribuir significados à escrita.
	Respondido em 22/09/2020 22:01:11
	
Explicação:
Kern states that literacy in a second language involves a competence to interpret and critically evaluate a large variety of written and spoken texts in cultural, pragmatic and interactional contexts. I expect that the process of reading may reveal readers who perform an active role and that recognize that they are responsible to build meanings in communicative contexts. They should also have the ability to understand cultural differences and be able to function adequately in a literate foreign society. But do not forget that as an efficient reader, you should be able to do that in an autonomous way.

Descriptive  texts are concerned with the location of persons and things in space.  They will tell us what lies to the right or left, in the background or foreground, or they will provide background information which, perhaps, sets the stage for narration.  It is immaterial whether a description is more technical-objective or more impressionistic subjective.

	Read the text below:
"It is the overall meaning, the core idea, of a spoken or written discourse. When taking a quick look at a written text to establish its genre and the main message its writer means to get across, we are reading to get the general idea of a text. This is also known synonymous of skimming. A text can provide readers with lots of clues that help readers quickly establish what it is about. These need not be just the words. A quick glance at the arrangement - densely written columns, for example - can tell us we are looking at a newspaper article, even when it is been reproduced in an exam paper. We also look for visuals or any other discrete discourse features to helpus make informed predictions".

	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.

        Questão
	
	
	Rembrandt self portrait
The auction house thought the portrait was a 17th century Rembrandt knockoff, and valued it at just $3,100. But the British buyer who paid about 1,500 times more than that apparently knew what he was doing. Experts have confirmed "Rembrandt Laughing" - bought for a bargain price of $4.5 million at an English auction house in October - is a self-portrait by the Dutch master himself, depicted with his head tilted back in easygoing laughter. 
William Noortman from Noortman Master Paintings, specializing in Dutch and Flemish masters, said it's worth $30 million to $40 million, adding: "I'm very surprised it didn't make more at auction." 
The 9 1/2-inch-by-6 1/2-inch painting will hang in the Rembrandt House Museum in Amsterdam through June 29, on loan from the anonymous Briton who bought it at the auction by Moore, Allen and Innocent in Gloucestershire and had it cleaned and examined by British experts. 
Art expert Jan Six from another auction house, Sotheby's, declined to put a new value on the painting. But he said the sale itself was a rare opportunity, as Rembrandt's works come on the market only once every few years. "A self-portrait by Rembrandt, that's absolutely unique ¿ not in my lifetime," Six said. 
Rembrandt made the self-portrait about 1628, when he was in his early 20s and still in his hometown, Leiden. Already he was earning his reputation as an artist, and experimenting with a mirror and his own face to capture expressions. 
 Why did the first auction house give the painting such a low value?
		
	
	They forgot to add a "0" to the number.
	
	They wanted the sale to be anonymous.
	
	Because Rembrandt was very young when he painted it.
	 
	They thought it was a fake.
	
	They thought it was only worth that much.
	Respondido em 22/09/2020 22:10:48
	
Explicação:
They thought it was a fake = The auction house thought the portrait was a 17th century Rembrandt knockoff, and valued it at just $3,100.
knockoff = a copy that sells for less than the original; broadly : a copyor imitation of someone or something popular.

"Reports last week said Pakistan had redeployed some troops from the north-west to the Indian border and cancelled some army leave. Air strikes against militants in the restive Swat and Bajaur regions had been scaled down, officials said. But one Pakistani military official told Reuters that reports of thousands of troops being redeployed were 'absolute rubbish'. India's military has denied any significant bolstering of troops on the border."
► Choose the best summary of the story you have just read about India and Pakistan.
		
	 
	Hostilities are likely in South Asia as Pakistan builds up troop numbers on the frontier with India and India prepares to retaliate.
	
	Pakistan is moving thousands of troops from the north-west to the Indian border. India is not significantly increasing the number of troops on the border.
	
	Pakistan is moving troops from the Indian border to attack militants in Swat and Bajaur. India is not sending reinforcements.
	
	Pakistan has denied reports that its troops will leave the Indian border.
	 
	Pakistan has denied reports that it is making military preparations close to the Indian border. India says it is not increasing troop numbers in the area either.
	Respondido em 10/11/2020 18:54:37
	
Explicação:
Pakistan has denied reports that its troops will leave the Indian border. 
False. Pakistan has denied reports that army leave (holiday) has been cancelled.
Pakistan is moving troops from the Indian border to attack militants in Swat and Bajaur. India is not sending reinforcements.
Completely untrue. Pakistan has denied reports that it is moving troops in the opposite direction.
Pakistan has denied reports that it is making military preparations close to the Indian border. India says it is not increasing troop numbers in the area either. 
Correct. This is the best summary.
Pakistan is moving thousands of troops from the north-west to the Indian border. India is not significantly increasing the number of
troops on the border. 
While this may be true, it is not the best summary as the report stated that Pakistan had denied this.
Hostilities are likely in South Asia as Pakistan builds up troop numbers on the frontier with India and India prepares to retaliate.
While this may be true, it is not the best summary as the report stated that both India and Pakistan had denied increasing troop numbers
near the border.

To Whom It May Concern,
 
It gives me great pleasure to recommend Sarah Morgan Silva for an MA in Education at the University of Sussex. I was Ms. Silva's professor of Teaching Methodologies in Portuguese as a Second Language for a semester in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (August-December 2015) and during that period, I had the chance to notice her great performance throughout the lectures. The course comprises a set of complex issues (i.e. approaches and methods, uses of some digital technologies as mediating tools, lesson planning, etc.), which demands a lot of dedication, focus, and several hours of hard work and Ms. Silva  demonstrated both maturity and commitment to her studies.
In relation to all classroom activities and assignments, Ms. Silva always did her work conscientiously, besides continuously seeking out additional information on how to become a better professional and education. She also had a great capacity for fulfilling her responsibilities in a variety of activities, always looking forward to succeeding in all assessments. 
Personally, I find Sarah Morgan Silva to be an intelligent, organized and articulate person, who is self-motivated and demonstrates great interest in educational issues. I strongly recommend her for the course aforementioned, and I am happy to amplify on any details if you wish. 
 
Yours faithfully,
 
John Peterson

	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.
	
	d. That the oceans will dry entirely
	 
	c. That not enough is being done about global warming.
	
	e. that the mountains will melt into sweet water oceans
	
	b. That the warming of the world's oceans is not a threat.

Hi Rebecca,
How ARE you?! It's been ages!! I thought I'd drop you a line seeing as I'm stuck in the airport with nothing to do but make use of the free Wi-Fi.
Not that writing to you isn't top of my list of things to do, of course ;) but I've been totally snowed under at work, plus all the family stuff that's been going on ... Anyway, I'm just about to go on a much-needed holiday so I really can't complain!
But tell me: what have you been up to? I saw Carol a couple of months ago - don't know if you heard what happened with her job but it made me feel grateful I only slightly hate mine - and she was saying your book is going to be published?! GREAT news!!! Send me a link and I'll definitely buy it and leave a five-star review :)
As for me, same old, same old re: job. Maggie and I broke up a while ago, as you know, but we're getting on much better now and it's working out far better for the kids. No-one new on the horizon but I'm off to Canada travelling for a month (if this plane ever leaves!) so who knows?!
Actually, I'll be flying over your house in a few hours. I'll wave! Let's make a plan to see each other when I get back, OK?
Hope life's treating you well!
Lots of love,
Sarah

"In a recent study, children in the city of Baltimore, USA, were interviewed about their prospects. Their ambitions reflected their own experience. Those from high-income families hoped to become lawyers or doctors, because those were typical professions of their parents' friends. Those from poorer backgrounds wanted to be professional sportspeople or music artists, since those were the people who had succeeded in their communities. However, they expected to be electricians or hairdressers. At school, the more privileged children performed better, because they knew that if they got good grades, their prospects of becoming a lawyer or doctor were good. The children from poorer backgrounds had no such incentive to do well at academic subjects and performed much worse. Nevertheless, when their school offered cash prizes on condition that their grades improved, the improvement was immediate".

Explicação:
It is the style of writing, or the way we use words to say what we want to say. Different situations call for different ways of putting words together. The way we write in academic and scientific settings differs greatly from the way we write to a friend or close one. The tone, vocabulary, and syntax, all change as the occasion changes. This difference in the styles of writing is the difference between formality and informality, or the difference between formal and informal writing.

	In the age of technology, there are some examples of written texts that use the forms of spoken language. One of them is sms messages or messaging apps. Which linguistic characteristic below does NOT fit this type of technology?
		
	 
	Even spoken language is used in the format of audio recording. 
	
	Abbreviations are used.
	 
	Formally structured sentences.
	
	Emojis and images can be used to convey emotions and ideas.
	
	Rules of written grammar and punctuation are often ignored.
	Respondido em 10/11/2020 19:02:12
	
Explicação:
Nowadays the internet and the cellphone apps have taken over a great majority of communication between people. The sms messages and the messaging apps, not to mention e-mails, use forms of spoken language to exchange information in a rapid manner. In these cases, rules of written grammar and punctuation are often ignored while also making great use of non-verbal imagery to deliver ideas, such as emojis and images. Formally structured sentences are definitely not a typical characteristic.

	Mark the only sentence which has a transitive verb with two objects:
		
	 
	Carlos sent  a perfect e-mail!
	
	Julia read all the answers.
	
	Christiane chose a terrific gift!
	
	Dalila studied the lessons very carefully.
	 
	Renata wrote wonderful messages to her students.
	Respondido em 10/11/2020 19:03:17
	
Explicação:
 According to certain linguistics considerations, these objects may be called direct and indirect, or primary and secondary. English has a number of generally ditransitive verbs, such as give and grant, and many transitive verbs that can take an additional argument (commonly a beneficiary or target of the action), such as pass, read, bake, etc.:
He gave Mary ten dollars.
He passed Paul the ball.
Jean read him the books.
She is baking him a cake.
 
English grammar allows for these sentences to be written alternately with a preposition (to or for):
He gave ten dollars to Mary.
He passed the ball to Paul.
Jean read the books to/for him.
She is baking a cake for him., etc.

	Respondido em 10/11/2020 19:00:46

I understand this to mean that the text will focus on clarifying matters by avoiding folk wisdom. However, there are several areas where the chapters present generalizations that can really confuse and bias a novice reader."

	In relation to what is presented in your classes about literacy in second language , choose the alternative that is correct according to Kern
		
	
	Kern states that literacy in a ny mother language involves a competence to interpret and critically evaluate a large variety of written and spoken texts in cultural, pragmatic and interactional contexts.
	
	Kern states that literacy in a second language involves a competence to simpliy decodify a large variety of written and spoken texts in cultural, pragmatic and interactional contexts.

	Kern states that literacy in a second language involves a competence to interpret and critically evaluate a large variety of written and spoken texts in cultural, pragmatic and interactional contexts.
	Respondido em 10/11/2020 19:29:02
	
	Explicação:
For Richard Kern, "literacy" in a second language means much more than the separate abilities to read and write; rather, it is a complex concept of familiarity with language and its use in context-primarily written language, but by extension also spoken communication. It requires "a broader discourse competence that involves the ability to interpret and critically evaluate a wide variety of written and spoken texts"

	Explicação:
Gêneros textuais podem ser entendidos como sistemas discursivos complexos, socialmente construídos pela linguagem, com padrões de organização facilmente identificáveis, e configurados pelo contexto sócio-histórico que engendra as atividades comunicativas.
Temos dois conhecimentos específicos de modelo textual: a) um conhecimento fundado em características textuais - aspectos léxicos, prosódicos, sintáticos e outros; b) conhecimento de modelos funcionais - que dizem respeito à função para a qual se destina o texto e considerando aspectos discursivos, socioculturais; rotinas em sentido estrito.

	look for grammatical contexts that may signal information;
	
	look for suffixes (-tion, -ness, -tive, -ly, etc) that indicates the part of speech the word belongs to;
	
	look for prefixes (un-, in-, dis-, etc) that may give clues;
