A pronoun usually refers to something already mentioned in a sentence or piece of text. They are used instead
of nouns to prevent repetition of the noun to which they refer. One of the most common pronouns is it.
Example (Singular):
Without a pronoun: The train was late, the train had been delayed. (Sounds horrid, doesnt it?)
With a pronoun: The train was late, it had been delayed. (Much better!)
In this example the train is singular, therefore the pronoun must be singular also - it.
Example (Plural):
Without a pronoun: The trains were late, the trains had been delayed. (Still sounds horrid, doesnt it?)
With a pronoun: The trains were late, they had been delayed. (Much better!)
In this example the trains are plural, therefore the pronoun must be plural also - they.

CAPTULO 3 - tips
A compreenso do texto dispensa a traduo palavra por palavra. O uso excessivo do dicionrio implica em
perda de tempo. necessrio o uso constante dr raciocnio para analisar, deduzir e concluir satisfatoriamente.
Sempre que voc for ler um texto instrumental, no caso um texto em lngua estrangeira, deve:
1 - No usar o dicionrio nesse primeiro momento.
2 - Atentar para a apresentao visual do texto.
3 Atentar para o ttulo do texto (traduza-o se for preciso, pois h sempre uma correlao entre ttulo e assunto
do texto)
4 Fazer um brainstorme do ttulo (todos os possveis assuntos que podem aparecer no texto), utilizando o seu
previous Knowledge (o que voc sabe sobre o assunto).
5 Fazer uma previso dos possveis assuntos a serem tratados no texto (prediction).
6 Ler o texto do comeo ao fim, partindo do geral para o especfico, atentando para:
6.1 as palavras transparentes (cognates words).
6.2 as palavras conhecidas (palavras que voc j sabe em ingls).
7 Inferir as palavras apenas pelos seus contextos, sem a ajuda de um dicionrio.
8 Depois de ter lido todo o texto, voc deve ler cada pargrafo novamente, atentando para o tpico frasal de
cada pargrafo.
9 Voc deve usar o dicionrio apenas para entender as palavras mais importantes de cada pargrafo.
Dependendo do objetivo da leitura, voc dever distinguir trs nveis de compreenso:
_ General comprehension: obtida atravs de uma leitura rpida para se captar as informaes genricas do
texto, ou seja, o que de maior relevncia para o texto.
_ Main points comprehension: A leitura dos pontos principais exige que nos detenhamos com maior ateno
na busca das informaes principais do texto, observando cada pargrafo para identificar os dados
especficos
que mais interessam ao leitor.

_ Detailed comprehension: Este tipo de leitura mais profundo que os anteriores. Exige a compreenso dos
detalhes do texto e demanda, por isso, muito mais tempo. Deve ser cuidados, especialmente quando
apli-
cada em instrues operacionais de equipamentos, experincias, etc... de modo que seu funcionamento
seja
preciso e seguro.
Maior sucesso ter o leitor no estudo do texto se fizer uso de algumas estratgias de leitura, bem como todas
as dicas que o prprio texto proporciona. Conhea a seguir alguns desses elementos.
1 Skimming: Estratgia que consiste em lanar os olhos rapidamente sobre o texto, numa breve leitura para
captar o assunto geral apenas, se esse for o objetivo da leitura.
2 Scanning: uma estratgia de leitura no-linear em que o leitor busca objetivamente localizar as
maes em que est interessado. Atravs do scanning o leitor objetivo e seletivo e nem sempre
inforprecisa ler
o texto todo.
Exemplo: a procura dos tipos de contgio da AIDS em um texto sobre doena.
3 Cognates: Muito comuns na lngua inglesa, os cognatos so termos de procedncia grega ou latina bastante
parecidos com o portugus tanto na forma escrita como no significado. Seria interessante o aluno notar que os
cognatos podem ser idnticos: radio, piano, hospital, nuclear, social, etc...
Bastante parecidos: gasoline, inflation. Intelligent, population, history, etc...
Vagamente parecidos: electricity, responsible, infalible, explain, activity, etc...
ingls
29
extensivo
4 - Repeated words: Quando certas palavras se repetem vrias vezes no texto, mesmo com formas diferentes
(exemplo socialismo, social, socialist, socialize...), normalmente so importantes para a compreenso. As palavras
repetidas aparecem especialmente na forma de verbos, substantivos e adjetivos e nem sempre so cognatas.
5 Typography: As marcas tipogrficas so elementos que, no texto, transmitem informaes nem sempre
representadas por palavras. Reconhece-las um auxlio bastante til leitura.
6 Key words: As palavras-chave so aquelas que esto mais de perto associadas especificamente ao assunto do
texto, podendo aparecer repetidas e algumas vezes na forma de sinnimos. A identificao das key words atraves
do skimming leva-nos a Ter uma viso geral do texto.
7 Prediction: a atividade pela qual o aluno levado a predizer, inferir o contedo de um texto atravs do ttulo
ou de outros elementos tipogrficos, como ilustraes, por exemplo. Sendo uma atividade do tipo pr-leitura, a
prediction contribui para estimular o interesse e a curiosidade do aluno pelo contedo de um texto que o tpico
sugere.
Quanto mais cultura geral (bacground knowlodge) tiver o leitor, mais fcil ser q sua prediction. Tomemos
como exemplo o ttulo ecologia. Um leitor com um conhecimento razovel poderia ordinariamente predizer sobre
o assunto listando palavras como: Meio-ambiente, Poluir, Desastroso, Poluentes, Matar, Devastao, Poluio, Florestas tropicais, Animais em extino, Proteger, Protestos, Chuva cida, Produtos qumicos, Natureza, Reforestar,
Envenenar, Etc... Estas palavras poderiam at no fazer parte do texto, mas muito provvel que faam. Observe
agora o mesmo ttulo em ingls e avalie o grau de dificuldade comparado com aquele em portugus.

Promoting a Global Dialogue on Water
05

20
Water scarcity has been surfacing more and more as a serious

global issue in recent years. That scarcity has caused significant
business disruptions across all sectors and geographies, and with
all the associated technical, economic, political, environmental
and social implications. This reality is projected to worsen in the
future, as a result of climate change and demographics.
The UN Human Development Report 2006 stresses this
critical issue: Better access to water and sanitation would act as
the catalyst for a giant advance in human development, creating
opportunities for gains in public health, education and economic
growth. Experience from the climate change debate has shown
that translating awareness to specific action takes many years.
There is a major challenge in catalysing effective action on
a global level. Governments play an important role in helping to
mitigate and adapt to the challenge, but so does the private sector,
through individual company actions and through innovative
public-private partnerships.
Such partnerships can offer a useful solution. Since late 2005,
the Forums Water Initiative has focused on creating networks
in South Africa and India. The objective has been to catalyze
ideas for public-private water infrastructure projects and shape
them into well-developed, bankable project propositions, and
financing plans.

TEXT 2 Questions from 05 to 08

Salt
What substance is essential to life but can damage your health
if taken in excess? What has been used as money and has been
the cause of bitter warfare? What is so important to our culture
that references to it abound in every language around the globe?
05
Nothing less than salt - that white granular seasoning found on

virtually every dining table.
Although current nutritional advice warns against consuming

too much salt, without it we would die. In addition, salt is one
of the most effective and widely used food preservatives and its
10
industrial uses are innumerable. Indeed, salt is vitally important to

agriculture, snow and ice control, water conditioning, the chemical
industry, metals production - to name just a few!
Salt has a fascinating history and references to it are common
since writing began. Some 2,700 years BC the Peng-Tzao-Kan-Mu
15
was published in China. This is probably the earliest known treatise

on pharmacology. A major portion of this writing is devoted to
a discussion of more than 40 kinds of salt. The treatise includes
descriptions of two methods of extracting salt and adapting it to a
usable form. The ancient Chinese methods for obtaining salt are
20
amazingly similar to processes still in use today.

Salt has also been of crucial economic importance. In some
parts of the world, salt was minted into coins and deemed to be as
valuable as gold. The ancient Greeks traded salt for slaves, giving
rise to the phrase not worth his salt to describe someone who
25
is lazy or does not work hard. The beautiful Italian city of Venice
was built on revenue from the salt trade. Roman soldiers were
partially paid in the mineral known as salarium argentum, out
of which comes the common English word salary. References
to salt abound in languages around the globe, especially where
30
salt is important to food. From the Latin sal, for example, come
such words for preserved foods as sauce and sausage.

Brazil: The Giant Down South
If Barack Obama came to visit Brazil and he should we would impress him
with our bigness in everything. We might even cause him to ponder just what all this
bigness and ambition means for the United States.
If Obama came, we would show him not just a good time, but a great time. He
could join the biggest party on earth (Carnaval) or go to the biggest football stadium
in the world (Maracan) to watch the biggest, or at least the winningest, national
team in action. We would awe Obama with our geography. Were bi-hemispherical,

crossed by the equator on top and laying our feet near the South Pole. We can sweat and freeze at the same
time. We occupy more than half of South America, we have the biggest river and the biggest iron-ore reserves
on earth, and might just become one of the worlds leading exporters of oil in the not-so-distant future. And if
that doesnt work or if our oil runs out we will surely become the leading producer of biofuel. Our reputation
for ethnic harmony is a bit undeserved but, still, ours is the biggest experiment in racial integration and miscegenation in history. We have a big, leftist (more or less) government but also a capitalist economy and are on
the way to developing a big popular consumer market for our own products and for imports. We also have the
widest spread between rich and poor in the world, however, along with the ugliest shantytowns and probably the
worst corruption scandals. When not having fun or being awed, Obama would have much to think about. He may
see us as a semitropical China, a giant stretching its limbs and demanding attention but a different kind of
attention than it got in the past. He may notice that we have Americanized, or McDonaldized, to a high degree,
but notice, too, a sense in the land that its time our bigness started to pay off and deliver on the future it promised. This might mean standing up like a giant in defiance of old attitudes and submissions. Obama might view
moderate Brazil as a good ally against the radical populists popping up throughout the continent in the wake of
failed neoliberal economics, or he may see us as an emerging geopolitical threat. There are people in Brazil who
are sure that the United States is redeploying the Fourth Fleet to the South Atlantic just to show us whos really
big. We have big ambitions but big paranoia, too.

Denmark worlds happiest nation
Denmark is the happiest country in the world, according to the latest World Values Survey pubTF1-2011 - REPRODUO PROIBIDA: Art. 184 do Cdigo Penal e Lei 9.610 de fevereiro de 1998 - www.gaussprevestibular.com.br
lished by the United States National Science Foundation.

The annual study surveyed people in 97 countries to discover who is happiest.
The survey asked people two simple questions about their happiness and their level of satisfaction with life.
Puerto Rico and Colombia completed the top three happiest nations. Zimbabwe was found to be the least
happy, with Russia and Iraq also in the bottom 10.
The study was directed by University of Michigan professor Ronal Inglehart. He says that unlike other studies,
which have focused on economic factors, his research has found that financial prosperity is not the only reason for
happiness.
Our research indicates prosperity is linked with happiness. It does contribute, he says, but it is not the most
important factor.
Personal freedom is even more important, and its freedom in all kinds of ways. Political freedom, like with
democracy and freedom of choice.
A happier world
The world is becoming a happier place overall, according to the survey, which has been conducted since 1981.
Dr Inglehart says that gender equality is also an indicator of happiness, as is rising social tolerance. He says
that both of these things have risen dramatically in recent years.
The worlds wealthiest nation, the United States, was found to be the worlds 16th happiest country, behind
Switzerland, Canada and Sweden.

The study also found that the countries at the bottom of the list all struggle with widespread poverty or authoritarian governments.
Zimbabwe, which is gripped by hyperinflation and has recently seen a controversial presidential election
marred by violence, was found to be the least happy nation amongst the countries covered by the survey.

Rubbish new way to power cars

ingls
Cars are expensive to run and bad for the environment, but some scientists
think they can change all that by using RUBBISH to power them.
They.ve found a way to turn some of the stuff we throw away into something
called bio-ethanol, which can be mixed in with petrol and used in cars.
The scientists say it.s a more environmentally friendly way of getting about,
and helps get rid of rubbish.
They think a million tonnes of rubbish could run more than a million cars.
For the last 15 years they.ve been experimenting with turning bio-degradable
rubbish - like paper and vegetable waste - into fuel.
They.ve found a way of doing it by heating it up to a really high temperature.
51

The gases that are released are mixed

in with bacteria, or bugs, which turn the
rubbish into bio-ethanol.
In countries like Brazil, lots of cars
already run on bio-ethanol, but that.s
made using plants grown in fields.
John McNally, from a company called
Ineos which is making the fuel, said
using rubbish is a better idea, because
then the crops can be kept for food.
He said the bio-ethanol gives off 90% less greenhouse gasses than petrol, and helps get rid of waste.

The current effort on the part of physicists to resolve the contradictions between quantum mechanics
and Einsteins general theory of relativity is not, for most people, something that would spring to mind as a
promising subject for a ballet. But it is the subject of Karole Armitages new work, inspired by the physicist
Brian Greenes popular book (and PBS TV series) The Elegant Universe, and, come to think of it, Armitages
fireand-ice style is a good fit for these awesome matters. Her piece, a collaboration with the composer Lukas
Ligeti, will be given a preview this weekend at the Guggenheim Museum, as part of its Works & Process
series. On Saturday, Greene and on Friday, his colleague Jim Gates will be on hand to tell us about cuttingedge trends in physics. If you flunked in college, heres your chance. After the show, you can meet the
participants, and have free sandwiches, at a reception in the museums rotunda, which itself looks like something out of theoretical physics.

Big-state, social-democratic Sweden seems an odd place to look for a free-market revolution. Yet that is what
is under way in the countrys schools. Reforms that came into force in 1994 allow pretty much anyone who satisfies
basic standards to open a new school and take in children at the states expense. The local municipality must pay
the school what it would have spent educating each child itself a sum of 48,000-70,000 kronor ($8,000-12,000)
a year, depending on the childs age and the schools location. Children must be admitted on a first-come, firstserved basis there must be no religious requirements or entrance exams. Nothing extra can be charged for, but
making a profit is fine.
() In just 14 years the share of Swedish children educated privately has risen from a fraction of a percent to
more than 10%.

Looking for that first job
Question: I am a fifteen-year-old high school student
about to go into my sophomore year of high school. I
have not been able to acquire any work experience
whatsoever, ironically because I dont have any work
experience! What is a good way for me to find a first
job?
Answer: Good for you to be proactive with your job
search and income earning at a young age. You are
right, it is tough to get experience when employers
are usually able to find people with experience. What
you are facing is what most of us experienced in our
early job searches, and with persistence we
eventually landed our first jobs. Unless you have
family connections to a business where you can gain
some experience, looking for work starts with
creating a plan and getting prepared. Utilizing all
available resources will be very helpful.
Many employers are prepared to hire people that
have no previous experience for their entry-level
positions. However, you will find there is still
competition for these roles and you will need to be
able to convince an employer you are the best
candidate for the position.
You will need a polished resume and cover letter that
indicates your strengths and suitability for a
position. Resumes and cover letters are an essential
part of your job-hunting tool kit. They are the most
common instruments job seekers use to get their
foot in the door.
Early in your search you will need to determine the
type of position you would like and then what the
best entry position might be to help you get there.
With this information your next step is to look at
companies that you would be interested in working
for that have these types of entry-level positions.
Many jobs are not advertised. You can tap into this
hidden job market by networking,
knocking on doors, seeking out free employment
programs and services, searching on the internet,
attending job fairs, and marketing yourself.
Follow-up is an important element of every job
search strategy. Re-connecting with a potential
employer by mail or phone can be very effective.
If you are interested in offering a service
babysitting, yard-work, painting, etc. - you could
make up a flyer and deliver it around your
community. It may not be long-term work but it does
help you start to build your experience and can
provide potential references for you.

Teens Online Safety Improved by Education, Research Shows
by Dian Schaffhauser

New research shows that teens online safety is improved by education.

Researchers from the University at Buffalo and University of Maryland surveyed 285
preteens and early teenagers, both male and female, to determine how important they
thought it was to protect their privacy online and whether those beliefs affected what
actions they took to protect that privacy.
Students were asked whether they protected their personal information on the
Internet, whether they opened e-mails from unknown senders, and whether they
downloaded files from unknown people or Web sites.
The researchers found that preteens and early teenagers who were educated
on the importance of Internet privacy through school, parents, or the media were more
likely to practice online safety than those who werent. Among teachers, peers, and
parents, parents were the most influential in delivering that education, according to
respondents.
A surprising result of the study was that experiencing a privacy breach online
didnt cause teens to improve their online safety practices, according to one of the
researchers, H.R. Rao, professor of management science and systems in Buffalos School
of Management.
Students who experience Internet privacy breaches or computer security
problems show less protective behavior on the Internet, said Rao. This increases the
chances that they will be victims again in the future.
The study also showed that girls tend to practice more protective behavior on
the Web than boys. The researchers said they believe this is because girls consider
online privacy more important than boys do.
The study was supported by a National Science Foundation grant.

If youve been shopping for food lately, I dont have to tell you that prices are going through the roof. In
some cases world prices have more than tripled in recent months, going from, in December, a price of $300
a ton to just this week over $1,000 a ton.
Robert Zeigler of the International Rice Research Institute is talking about rice, a basic staple food across
Asia, of course. Prices surged dramatically after China, Vietnam, and India limited exports to ensure they
had enough supplies for their own people. Other food products have also seen alarming increases.
The U.N.s Food and Agriculture Organization, the FAO, says wheat prices have doubled in Senegal.
Bread prices doubled in Tajikistan. The cost of corn in Uganda rose 65 percent in just six months. One
reason: farmers are passing on their higher costs, particularly the rising cost of energy. Fertilizers become
10
more and more unaffordable for the small farmers, who are at the center of a response to the world food
11
crisis, notes Joachim von Braun, who heads the International Food Policy Research Institute in
12
Washington. And transport costs have become higher and higher, so the cost side of agriculture will keep
13
food prices high, even if we make major efforts to increase production.
14
Other reasons for the run-up in prices include natural causes like drought and pest outbreaks and
15
speculation in the commodities market.
16
And as world oil prices hover around $120 a barrel, more food crops are ending up in fuel tanks. In the
17
United States, about one-quarter of the corn crop is now being used to make ethanol, which is blended with
18
gasoline to make a motor fuel. Soybean farmers are switching to corn, which drives up soy prices, and so
19
on.
20
Rising living standards also play a role. Particularly in India and China, where hundreds of millions of
21
people are having access to the middle class, more people are buying more food higher up the food chain,
22
says Carlos Ser of the International Livestock Research Institute in Nairobi.
23
We know that consumers, when they move, lets say, from $2 to $10 a day per capita, they largely
24
expand the consumption of vegetables, oils, and animal products. This is happening in big countries around
25
the world. This has a big impact.
26
But in many cases the poorest of the poor are paying the price for the good fortune of the emerging
27
middle class.
28
Analysts like Robert Zeigler of the Rice Research Institute are starting to assess the damage. Now what
29
are the consequences of this? Well, there are some estimates that say that if present trends continue for
30
very long, we can expect 100 million people to be pushed back into poverty. And Joachim von Braun of the
31
Food Policy Research Institute says that higher food prices today can cause long-term damage as people
32
change their eating habits.
33
The high food prices lead poor people to limit their food consumption and shift to even less balanced
34
diets with harmful effects on health in the short and long run. The child who is not appropriately nourished
35
under the age of three for a couple of months will be harmed for the rest of its life.
36
The three experts spoke in a telephone conference organized by the International Agricultural Research
37
Group, whose research centers have some 8,000 scientists working on food issues.

Zoo chimp planned stone attacks
10

30
Chimpanzees have long been

suspected of planning ahead
There has been scant evidence in previous research that animals

can
plan for future events.
Crucial to the current study is the fact that Santino, a chimpanzee
at the
zoo in the city north of Stockholm, collected the stones in a calm
state,
prior to the zoo opening in the morning.
The launching of the stones occurred hours later - during dominance
displays to zoo visitors - with Santino in an .agitated. state.
This suggests that Santino was anticipating a future mental state
- an
ability that has been difficult to definitively prove in animals, according to
Mathias Osvath, a cognitive scientist from Lund University in Sweden
and author of the new research.
Weve done experimental studies, and the chimps in my mind
show very
clearly that they do plan for future needs, but it has been argued
that
perhaps this was an experimental artefact, Dr Osvath told BBC
News.
Now we have this spontaneous behaviour, which is always in
some sense better evidence.
05
A male chimpanzee in a Swedish zoo planned

hundreds of stone-throwing attacks on zoo
visitors, according to researchers.
Keepers at Furuvik Zoo found that the chimp
collected and stored stones that he would later
use as missiles.
Further, the chimp learned to recognise how
and when parts of his concrete enclosure could
be pulled apart to fashion further projectiles.
The findings are reported in the journal Current
Biology.

musicians to make a comeback album called Buena Vista Social Club. It sold more than a million copies. Between
the beats of this so-called son music, you can feel a touching camaraderie among the musicians, including 80-yearold pianist Ruben Gonzalez and Ibrahim Ferrer, aka The Nat King Cole of Cuba, whose soft, 70-year-old voice will
slay anyone with an appreciation of fine music. When the band makes its final appearance on the Carnegie stage,
to the sweetly mournful strains of Quizs, Quizs, Quizs, you realize youre hooked on these musicians for life.

JAZZ AT LINCOLN CENTER TO REACH FROM BRAZIL TO NEW ORLEANS
The longer works of John Coltrane and Charles Mingus, an Abbey Lincoln retrospective and a Brazilian music
festival are among more than 400 events worldwide planned by Jazz at Lincoln Center for its 11th season as a
year-round producer, starting in September.
After a July residency by the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra at the Vitoria-Gasteiz Festival in Spain, the organization
plans a fall series of performances, educational events and broadcasts centering on the theme Jump In. Jump In
signifies the philosophy of Jazz at Lincoln Center, which is welcome and dont hesitate, like when you go to somebodys house and they try to make you comfortable in the shortest period of time, said Wynton Marsalis, the organizations artistic director. We have a season that is inclusive of many styles and forms, with musicians of all persuasions.
Since its inception, Jazz at Lincoln Center has been criticized for ignoring music produced since the 1960s. The
2001-2 season suggests a broader focus: two concerts are to explore the later, visionary works of Coltrane and Mingus, and a three-concert retrospective will present not only Ms. Lincolns musical compositions but her poetry as well.
A series of events will also reflect the relationship between Brazilian music and jazz, including collaborations
between the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra and a samba band led by the percussionist Cyro Baptista; three concerts
featuring new arrangements of the music of the Brazilian composer Pixinguinha, performed by a small ensemble led
by the guitarist Romero Lubambo; an annotated film program that examines the carnival traditions of Brazil and New
Orleans; and three Jazz for Young People concerts, one on Mingus, one on Coltrane and a third titled What Is Samba?
