A Forced Kiss, and a Reckoning With
Sexism in Spain1
In the wake of a nonconsensual kiss
pressed on Jennifer Hermoso, a star player of the
Spanish women's soccer team, by the president
of Spain’s soccer federation, Luis Rubiales, a
significant national conversation has been
sparked in Spain about feminism, equality, and
abuse. The incident highlights the clash between
deeply ingrained traditions of machismo and
Spain's more recent progressivism on genderrelated matters.
The unwarranted kiss by Rubiales on
Hermoso's lips has become symbolic of the
generational and cultural divide between
traditional machismo and the more modern push
for gender equality. The incident has led to
widespread condemnation, even within
conservative circles. This event has been referred
to by some as Spain’s version of the #MeToo
movement.
Spanish prosecutors have initiated a
preliminary investigation into whether Rubiales
could be charged with a sexual aggression crime.
The Royal Spanish Football Federation, led by
Rubiales, has faced calls for his resignation due
to the controversy.
In a politically charged environment, where
the far-right's anti-gender identity stance was
rejected in recent elections, Spain's feminist
movement has gained momentum. Leading
politicians, cultural figures, and voices within
soccer culture have expressed support for
Hermoso and condemned Rubiales, highlighting
Spain's shift towards gender equality.
The incident has triggered a broader
reflection on the country's entrenched soccer
culture and sexism, prompting discussions about
the need for change. Many see this moment as
an opportunity for Spain to address and transform
the deeply ingrained sexism within maledominated institutions.

TEXTO II
Shape of You"
Ed Sheeran
The club isn't the best place to find a lover
So the bar is where I go
Me and my friends at the table doing shots
Drinking fast and then we talk slow
Come over and start up a conversation with just
me
And trust me I'll give it a chance now
Take my hand, stop, put Van the Man on the
jukebox
And then we start to dance, and now I'm singing
like
Girl, you know I want your love
Your love was handmade for somebody like me
Come on now, follow my lead
I may be crazy, don't mind me
Say, boy, let's not talk too much
Grab on my waist and put that body on me
Come on now, follow my lead
Come, come on now, follow my lead
I'm in love with the shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I'm in love with your body
Last night you were in my room
And now my bedsheets smell like you
Every day discovering something brand new
I'm in love with your body (4x)
Every day discovering something brand new
I'm in love with the shape of you

TEXTO I
The study of language acquisition is fundamentally the process by which humans, and some believe even certain higher animals, acquire the capacity to perceive, produce and use words to understand and communicate. This is a central topic in the disciplines of linguistics, cognitive science, and psychology. Moreover, it holds considerable interest in educational science, anthropology, neuroscience, and artificial intelligence, reflecting the breadth of its implications and impact.
The language learning process is multifaceted, influenced by a multitude of factors. Among these are the learner's cognitive abilities, encompassing memory, attention, perceptual and reasoning skills. Equally important is the learner's social environment – family, peers, teachers and the broader cultural context, which can provide opportunities for exposure to the language, affect the learner's attitudes and motivation, and determine the nature of the language input.
Exposure to the language, both in terms of quality and quantity, is also a critical factor. This involves interaction with proficient users of the language and access to diverse linguistic contexts. The role of motivation cannot be overstated. It can greatly enhance the learner's engagement, persistence and performance.
The complex interplay of these factors
shapes the trajectory of language learning, with
every individual's path being unique.
Nevertheless, there are patterns and regularities
in the process that researchers strive to identify
and understand. These insights not only enrich
our understanding of human cognition and social
interaction but also have practical implications for
language teaching and learning.

TEXT:
Mistakes help you learn
Maija Kozlova
May 19, 2021
It is not uncommon for English language lessons to favour
communication over accuracy: real life is nothing like a
classroom! In real-life situations, when you make a mistake in the
language you are learning, context provides ample information
as to what the intended message is. In fact, most of the time,
impeccable accuracy is not needed at all! “Don’t worry about
making mistakes,” I used to tell my English language students.
“Communicating is the most important thing!”
While making mistakes when trying to master a language might
seem counter-intuitive, letting learners freely communicate
and negotiate meaning is key to success. A learner who
communicates a lot while making a few mistakes is much more
likely to develop confidence for dealing with real-life situations
than a learner who communicates very little because they’re
afraid of making any. In communicative language teaching, for
example, the teacher is tasked with both encouraging the learner
to express themselves and with providing corrective feedback in
a way that is not obstructive to communication.
This means that if a learner says, “I go swimming last night,”
it is much more effective to respond with, “Oh, that’s nice, you
went swimming. What did you do after?” rather than, “No! You
went swimming! Use past simple for past events!” – the former
encourages the learner to continue their narrative while the latter
is much more likely to make the learner stop in their tracks,
re-evaluate the context, and think twice before expressing
themselves again in the future, for the fear of making a mistake
again. Teachers need to be careful not to parrot back everything
the students say in this manner, of course, but the technique
can be an effective method of acknowledging the content of a
student’s response, while also providing feedback on accuracy.
The importance of the freedom to make mistakes in language
learning is also supported by research in psychology, which
suggests that learners who try a task without having mastered
it completely experience improved retention of new information.
A similar experiment in the context of language learning also
indicates that the process of making mistakes activates a greater
network of related knowledge in the brain, which leads to superior
learning outcomes.
It is believed that the key to help learners feel relaxed and ready
for communicating freely in the classroom is authenticity. This
means that there should be both a real communicative need for
a learner to speak and the authentic reaction from those around
to what the learner has said.
Here are a few ways of how such authentic communicative
interactions can be practiced in the classroom:
• surround learners with the English language – encourage
them to speak to you and each other in English;
• don’t worry about diverging from topics that are not strictly
covered in your lesson plan;
• model communication by telling your students stories and
anecdotes about your own life and encourage them to do
the same;
• let your learners have fun with English – give them colloquial
expressions to try and ask them to share some expressions
;
• do not overcorrect – make a note of errors and cover it in
subsequent lessons;
• avoid the temptation to turn what was intended as speaking
practice into a full-on grammar lesson.
While easier said than done, especially when the outcome of an
exam is at stake, it is worth remembering that people that our
learners might come to interact with outside of the classroom
are driven by the natural desire to understand the people they
communicate with. This is especially powerful when practiced in
the context of a classroom. They set the learners up for success
in real-life communication. In other words, when communication
is the goal, mistakes are secondary, and that’s real life, isn’t it?

Dogs will eat almost anything—cats, not so much. Here’s
why.
Why are cats such picky eaters when dogs seem
willing to wolf down just about anything they encounter? It’s
a question many pet parents likely ask themselves while
__________ their feline friend to swallow a pill or prying
another slobbery piece of mulch from their puppy’s mouth.
There’s still a lot scientists don’t know about animal
taste preferences. But, thanks to a small but growing body of
research, researchers are starting to unravel some of the
mysteries around our four-legged friends’ flavor fancies.
Here’s what we know so far.
Accidentally drop a cupcake on the ground and your
dog will probably scarf it down in one bite. Your cat, on the
other hand, may turn up her nose. One possible reason for
their ____________ behaviors? Cats can’t taste sweetness.
Since they couldn’t just ask cats directly,
researchers figured this out by analyzing their DNA. House
cats, tigers, and cheetahs have a “broken” version of the
gene Tas1r2, which works with another gene, Tas1r3, to
enable sweetness detection. Though Tas1r3 appears to
function perfectly fine in cats, Tas1r2 is an “unexpressed
pseudogene” that’s missing 247 letters. Without them,
Tas1r2 does not produce a crucial protein needed to form a
receptor for sweetness on cats’ taste buds.
To take the study a step further, they gave 25
felines the choice between a bowl of plain water and one
that’d been spiked with molecules that provide umami
flavor. As ___________, the cats strongly preferred the
umami water, and more specifically, water containing
umami compounds present in tuna. That may help explain
why felines love the saltwater fish so much.

English as an Additional Language:
Enhancing Critical Digital Literacy
EAL classrooms are spaces to build communicative
competence in the English language. That language has a unique
role for many people around the world. For those without
financial resources who do not live in English dominant countries,
the digital sphere is perhaps the only space in which authentic
use of the language is likely to take place. For learners situated in
inner circle countries, effective use of the language can make the
difference between social, economic and political exclusion, or
inclusion. This is also true for a lesser extent in outer circle
countries. For those in expanding circle countries, English is
becoming a language of the global elite in political, economic,
and academic life. In all of these circles, it is often used as a lingua
franca. Sociocultural theory states that true competence in
encoding and decoding language can only exist when there is an
understanding of the cultural realities attached to the
communication when it is used. Digital media provide the vector
of communication for a tremendous number of communicative
acts in all of the circles, but communication in the digital medium
carries special attributes that are not necessarily obvious or
transparent. Therefore, it seems imperative to arm language
users with an understanding of communication issues the digital
realm as well as an understanding of the implication of
communication in this space. Furthermore, there is an ethical
responsibility to empower language users from a variety of
background with equal agency and therefore equal voice. Doing
so requires more than just technical skills, but also skills of
critique and critical language awareness, productive ability, and
an understanding of agency and rights claims that stretch from
the linguistic to the economic and political. By reimagining Critical
Language Awareness as a component of a multiliteracy approach
that encompasses the full spectrum of analogue to digital
communication in English, teachers, students, and policy makers

English as an Additional Language:
Enhancing Critical Digital Literacy
EAL classrooms are spaces to build communicative
competence in the English language. That language has a unique
role for many people around the world. For those without
financial resources who do not live in English dominant countries,
the digital sphere is perhaps the only space in which authentic
use of the language is likely to take place. For learners situated in
inner circle countries, effective use of the language can make the
difference between social, economic and political exclusion, or
inclusion. This is also true for a lesser extent in outer circle
countries. For those in expanding circle countries, English is
becoming a language of the global elite in political, economic,
and academic life. In all of these circles, it is often used as a lingua
franca. Sociocultural theory states that true competence in
encoding and decoding language can only exist when there is an
understanding of the cultural realities attached to the
communication when it is used. Digital media provide the vector
of communication for a tremendous number of communicative
acts in all of the circles, but communication in the digital medium
carries special attributes that are not necessarily obvious or
transparent. Therefore, it seems imperative to arm language
users with an understanding of communication issues the digital
realm as well as an understanding of the implication of
communication in this space. Furthermore, there is an ethical
responsibility to empower language users from a variety of
background with equal agency and therefore equal voice. Doing
so requires more than just technical skills, but also skills of
critique and critical language awareness, productive ability, and
an understanding of agency and rights claims that stretch from
the linguistic to the economic and political. By reimagining Critical
Language Awareness as a component of a multiliteracy approach
that encompasses the full spectrum of analogue to digital
communication in English, teachers, students, and policy makers
can work toward making language studies as relevant, authentic,
and empowering as possible.
