conversation and try to identify these verb tenses.

finished actions. When used together, the action in the simple past often interrupts the situation in progress.

DON’T FEEL LIKE READING? [...] 
TIPS TO BRING YOURSELF OUT OF A BOOK SLUMP
1. Try reading something short. Stories from a collection, maybe. 
[...] Or a long magazine piece, or a newspaper serial.
2. Reread an old favorite, one that you love and know so well it 
won’t require much brainpower. [...]
3. Put away the book that you are obligated to read — for work, 
for school, for book club — and indulge in something you truly 
want to read. [...]
4. Browse your shelves. You’ve got books there you bought and 
haven’t yet gotten to — what looks good? What made you buy 
them in the first place?
5. Go to a library, or a bookstore. See if you are tempted by shiny 
displays, staff recommendations, stacks of the latest bestsellers. Just 
being in the vicinity of books can sometimes kindle that desire.
[...]
What about you? What tricks do you try when you fall out of love 
with reading?

THE GREATEST MYSTERY: MAKING A BEST SELLER
Brian DeFiore, a literary agent, asks: “Is it the cover? The title? [...]”
The answer is that no one really knows. “It’s an accidental profession, most of the 
time,” said William Strachan, editor in chief at Carroll & Graf Publishers. “If you had the 
key, you’d be very wealthy. Nobody has the key.”
The hunt for the key has been much more extensive in other industries, which 
have made a point of using new technology to gain a better understanding of 
their customers. Television stations have created online forums for viewers and may 
use the information there to make programming decisions. Game developers solicit input from users through virtual 
communities over the Internet. Airlines and hotels have developed increasingly sophisticated databases of customers.
Publishers, by contrast, put up Web sites where, in some cases, readers can sign up for announcements of new titles. 
But information rarely flows the other way — from readers back to the editors. [...]
Publishers do engage in limited numbers crunching. In estimating value, editors rely heavily on an author’s previous 
sales or on sales of similar titles. Based on those figures and some analysis — about the popularity of the genre, the 
likely audience [...] — they work up profit and loss projections. [...]
There are two ways for a book to become a best seller. One is to make it on to a best-seller list by selling many copies in 
a week. Other books sell steadily over months and years, eventually outselling many official best sellers. [...]
Most publishers, though, continue to gather data on sales and not much else, though past performance is certainly no 
guarantee of future results, even from the same author. 
BOSS, Shira. The greatest mystery: making a best seller. Available at: <https://www.nytimes.com/2007/05/13/business/yourmoney/13book.html>. 
Accessed on: 7 June 2018.
13. Which areas have invested in getting to know their public? 
Television stations, game developers, airlines and hotels.
14. How do publishers communicate with their public? 
They put up websites where readers can get announcements for new titles. However, they rarely get information from the readers.
15. What do publishers take into consideration before printing new books?
Editors consider an author’s previous sales or sales of similar titles, as well as the popularity of the genre and the likely audience.
16. What two ways are there for a book to become a bestseller? 
Selling many copies in a week or selling steadily over months and years.
17. What type of data do publishers gather? 
They gather data on sales.
wealthy: rico.
hunt: caça.
flows: flui.
numbers crunching: cálculos, análises.
rely heavily: baseiam-se muito.
work up: calculam.
steadily: continuamente.
outselling: vendendo mais.
gather: coletar.

HOLLYWOOD
Movies and Los Angeles have been synonymous for a long time – the first production company began shooting in the 
area over the winter in 1907. D .W. Griffith took out a production crew in the winter of 1909-1910, and the first studio 
was built in Hollywood (a name invented in 1886 by the wife of a real estate developer) in 1911. That same year, 15 
more movie “manufacturers,” as producing companies were called, arrived.

OSCAR-WINNING MOVIES
By Rachel Swalin
Citizen Kane may be considered one of the greatest films ever made, yet this Orson Welles grand tale of a 
newspaper magnate’s rise and fall lost out on Best Picture in 1942. Instead, the prize went to How Green Was My 
Valley, a drama depicting the struggles of a Welsh mining family. As director, co-author, producer, and star, Welles 
had every hand in the making of Citizen Kane, but his controversial film, thought to be based on media mogul 
William Randolph Hearst, managed to alienate him from Hollywood. How Green Was My Valley, from director 
John Ford, proved to be a more sentimental favorite of the time.

1. The world of literature
5. Nessa atividade, é necessário associar cada frase a uma das dicas listadas no artigo. A frase a, “Tente 
encontrar algo interessante em casa”, está relacionada à dica 4, “Dê uma olhada nas suas estantes”. A 
frase b, “Procure lugares com muitos livros e veja se algum deles atrai sua atenção”, tem a ver com a 
dica 5, “Vá a uma biblioteca ou a uma livraria”. A frase c, “Comece lendo algo que não é muito longo, 
como um artigo”, retoma a dica 1, “Tente ler algo curto”. A frase d, “Retorne a um livro de que você 
gostou muito no passado”, está conectada à dica 2, “Releia um velho favorito”. A frase e, “Para gostar 
do que está lendo, você precisa escolher o próprio livro”, relaciona-se com a dica 3, “Deixe de lado o 
livro que você é obrigado a ler”.
6. Deve-se verificar se as frases são verdadeiras ou falsas. A frase a, “Livros favoritos podem ser lidos e 
relidos por prazer”, é verdadeira, visto que a dica 2 sugere ao leitor que “releia um velho favorito, um 
que você ama e conhece tão bem que não vai exigir muito trabalho mental” (Reread an old favorite, 
one that you love and know so well it won’t require much brainpower). A frase b, “Sempre foque 
histórias longas se tiver problemas de leitura”, é falsa, pois a dica 1 propõe que se “tente ler algo curto” 
(Try reading something short). A frase c, “Não se esqueça dos livros que você comprou, mas nunca 
leu. Dê uma chance a eles”, é verdadeira, porque a dica 4 recomenda o seguinte: “dê uma olhada nas 
suas estantes. Você tem livros que comprou e ainda não explorou” (Browse your shelves. You’ve got 
books there you bought and haven’t yet gotten to). A frase d, “Dar uma olhada nos lançamentos de 
livros pode ser uma boa ideia”, é verdadeira e está associada à dica 5, que sugere ao leitor o seguinte: 
“veja se é atraído pelos displays chamativos, pelas recomendações dos vendedores e pelas pilhas dos 
últimos best-sellers” (See if you are tempted by shiny displays, staff recommendations, stacks of the 
latest bestsellers). A frase e, “Ler livros para o trabalho ou para a escola pode inspirá-lo a ler de novo”, 
é falsa, porque a dica 3 propõe que se “deixe de lado o livro que é obrigado a ler” (Put away the book 
that you are obligated to read).
13. De acordo com o texto, as áreas que investem para conhecer seu público-alvo incluem emissoras 
de televisão (Television stations have created online forums for viewers), desenvolvedores de jogos 
(Game developers solicit input from users), companhias aéreas e hotéis (Airlines and hotels have 
developed increasingly sophisticated databases of customers).
14. Segundo o artigo, as editoras enviam informações aos leitores, mas não costumam receber retorno, 
pois elas “criam websites nos quais, em alguns casos, os leitores podem se cadastrar para receber 
anúncios de novos títulos. Mas a informação raramente flui para o outro sentido – dos leitores de 
volta para os editores” (Publishers, by contrast, put up Web sites where, in some cases, readers can 
sign up for announcements of new titles. But information rarely flows the other way — from readers 
back to the editors).
15. Antes de imprimirem novos livros, “os editores levam em conta as vendas prévias de um autor e de 
títulos semelhantes”, além de analisar “a popularidade do gênero e seu provável público” (editors rely 
heavily on an author’s previous sales or on sales of similar titles [...] the popularity of the genre, the 
likely audience).
16. As duas maneiras mencionadas no texto para um livro se tornar um best-seller são “vendendo 
muitos exemplares em uma semana” e “vendendo continuamente por meses ou anos” (There are 
two ways for a book to become a best seller. One is to make it on to a best-seller list by selling many 
copies in a week. Other books sell steadily over months and years).
17. De acordo com o texto, as editoras “coletam dados sobre vendas, e não muito além disso” (Most 
publishers, though, continue to gather data on sales and not much else).

19. Deve-se identificar qual palavra não pertence a cada grupo de vocábulos. No grupo a, fable é o único 
gênero literário de ficção. No grupo b, library não é um tipo de livro,mas um local. No grupo c, did 
está no simple past, ao passo que os outros verbos estão no past participle. No grupo d, todas as 
palavras são gêneros literários, exceto bookshop. No grupo e, liked é o único verbo regular.
20. O trecho “J.K. Rowling introduz uma personagem, Kelsey, que está apaixonada por Niall Horan, o 
cantor irlandês do One Direction” (J.K. Rowling introduces a character, Kelsey, who is in love with 
Niall Horan, the One Direction’s Irish singer) indica que o item c responde corretamente à questão.
2. The big screen
5. Deve-se verificar se as frases são verdadeiras ou falsas de acordo com o texto. A frase a, “O letreiro de 
Hollywood, como o conhecemos hoje, foi instalado em 1923”, é falsa, conforme o fato 4, “o grande 
letreiro de Hollywood foi instalado em 1923 e originalmente dizia ‘Hollywoodland’”, diferente de hoje 
(The huge ‘Hollywood’ sign was put up in 1923 and originally spelt out the word ‘Hollywoodland’). 
A frase b, “A venda de álcool era proibida em Hollywood no começo do século XX”, é verdadeira, 
pois, de acordo com o fato 2, em decorrência de uma votação, decidiu-se “banir a venda de álcool 
na cidade” (to banish the sale of alcohol in the town). A frase c, “O letreiro original de Hollywood era 
mais alto do que o letreiro atual”, é verdadeira, porque os fatos 5 e 6 informam que “as letras tinham 
originalmente 50 pés de altura” e que “o letreiro foi reconstruído com letras de 45 pés de altura” (The 
letters were originally 50ft high [...] the sign was rebuilt with 45ft-high letters). A frase d, “Whitley esta-
va viajando a negócios quando deu o nome a Hollywood”, é falsa, pois, segundo o fato 1, Hollywood 
recebeu seu nome enquanto “Whitley estava em lua de mel” (Hollywood was given its name by the 
real estate developer Hobart Johnstone Whitley while on his honeymoon). A frase e, “O letreiro de 
Hollywood só deveria ficar em pé até 1973”, é falsa, porque os fatos 4 e 7 apontam que “o grande 
letreiro foi instalado em 1923” e que “originalmente deveria ficar em pé apenas por um ano” (The 
huge ‘Hollywood’ sign was put up in 1923 [...] originally intended to last only a year). 
12. O trecho “Como diretor, coautor, produtor e astro, Welles se envolveu profundamente na produção 
de Cidadão Kane, mas seu controverso filme, aparentemente baseado no magnata da mídia William 
Randolph Hearst, conseguiu aliená-lo de Hollywood” (As director, co-author, producer, and star, 
Welles had every hand in the making of Citizen Kane, but his controversial film, thought to be based 
on media mogul William Randolph Hearst, managed to alienate him from Hollywood), justifica o 
item d como resposta da questão.
