Cohesion and coherence are important aspects of writing
as they have an influence on the readability of the
argument of a text. Coherence is about the unity of the
ideas, on the other hand, cohesion is about the unity of
structural elements. If a text is coherent, it is logically
ordered and connected. If the elements of a text are
cohesive, they are united and work together contributing
to its meaning. Both cohesion and coherence are
essential when structuring paragraphs. That said, read the
excerpts that follow, whose topic is related to “Teachers´
Identities”, then number them. After organizing the
excerpts in a cohesive and coherent well-structured
paragraph, check the correct answer.
( ) Identity has been defined as ‘what makes you similar to yourself and different from others’ (Deschamp and Devos 1998, p. 3). ( ) Although the definition of professional identity varies between researchers, many scholars have been suggesting that important concepts on professional identity have been provided throughout the years. ( ) That being so, teachers’ effectiveness and commitment towards their job tend to be related to the way they value their significance and professionalism. ( ) The importance of exploring teachers’ identities and how these identities influence their effectiveness has also been emphasized. ( ) In other words, the way teachers value themselves is more likely to be related to their professional identities.

The name of Shakespeare is the greatest in all literature.
No man ever came near to him in the creative power of
the mind; no man ever had such strength and such variety
of imagination. He wrote in his day some thirty-seven
plays and a few poems; since then as many hundred
volumes have been written in praise of his
accomplishment. At the present time unnumbered critics,
historians and scholars are still explaining the mind and
the art displayed in that same neglected work.
Shakespeare's plays are a canon of dramatic works
written by the English poet, playwright, and actor. The
exact number of plays as well as their classifications as
tragedy, history, comedy, or otherwise is a matter of
scholarly debate. Shakespeare's plays are widely
regarded as among the greatest in the English language
and are continually performed around the world. His
plays have been translated into every major living
language. Having that in mind, it is correct to say that are
plays written by William Shakespeare, except for:

In order to meet the determinations of the Law of
Directives and Bases (LDB – 9394/96), debates have
been held over the last few years around definitions to
guide the construction of an Elementary Education
syllabus in Brazilian schools. The Common National
Curriculum Base (BNCC), which has been designed and
recently approved, presents traditions and also some
changes in relation to what has historically been
produced in our country regarding curricular discussions.
That is to say that in English classrooms, the English
language has been regarded different statuses throughout
the years. When it comes to the teaching and learning of
English in Brazilian regular schools, from the National
Curriculum Parameters (PCNs – 1998) to the National
Common Curricular Base (BNCC – 2017), one of the
biggest changes in terms of language teaching in recent
years concerns to the status the English language has
been regarded within language practices inside and
outside the classroom. With that said, considering the
status of English language in the National Common
Curricular Base, it is correct to say that English has been
assumed as:

Q2569890
Inglês
English has always been a language that interests its
learners and users in many ways. That is because, almost
every day, a new word is added to the wide range of
vocabulary. Homophones are one of the various
interesting factors of the language. Homophones are two
or more words that share the same pronunciation, but
which have different spellings or meanings. In English
classrooms, when students are provided with
opportunities to learn homophones, they are more likely
to: I) broaden their vocabulary and grammar skills; II)
understand the difference between two similar-sounding
words; and III) practice and improve their spelling. With
that in mind, check the answer whose pairs of words
presented may not be considered homophones.

Inglês
The dissemination of English linked to the expansion and
domination of the British Empire is only part of the story
of the language’s progression across the globe. Today
English is the primary language in some sixty countries
and continues to spread, especially as a second language.
A useful model to document the expansion of English
today, developed by an Indian-American linguist, Braj
B. Kachru, employs three concentric circles to reflect the
different ways in which English continues to gain new
speakers. That being so, read the statements that follow,
which are, at some point and extent, associated with the
model to document the expansion of English today, and
check the correct answer.
(I) The Inner Circle represents the English language’s traditional heartland, USA, Canada, UK, Australia, and New Zealand, where it is spoken as a native tongue by some 350 million people. (II) The Outer Circle comprises non-native countries where English has an important status as an official second language, including post colonial countries such as Singapore, Kenya, and India. (III) The Expanding Circle encompasses all other countries where English is recognized either as a foreign language or as a lingua franca, therefore being used in business and trade, but where it does not have a special status, such as China and Japan.
The statement(s) that may be considered correct is/are:

Q2569886
Inglês
Minimal pairs are words that differ by only one sound.
When it comes to minimal pairs, it is important to note
that the focus is on sounds, so the spellings of the words
may be different. Within the pair, the sounds that differ
may occur at the beginning or the end of the words, and
the difference may occur between singleton consonants
or in one sound in a consonant blend. Minimal pairs can
be tricky for some speakers, and this can also impact
their written work. When they struggle to differentiate
either the sound or pronunciation, it is more likely that
this will translate to misconceptions in spelling. That
being said, check the answer whose pair of words
presented may not be considered minimal pairs.

Google Says AI-powered System Is Improving City
Traffic Flows
Google says an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered system
it created is helping improve traffic flow in major world
cities.
The system, called Project Green Light, is currently in use
in 12 cities.
The project aims to save fuel and lessen air
pollution, or emissions, from automobiles.
Google first announced the program in 2021, when it was
testing the system in four areas of Israel. Since then, the
company has kept expanding Project Green Light. Among
cities now taking part in the program are Bangalore,
Budapest, Jakarta, Manchester, Haifa, Hamburg, Rio de
Janeiro, and Seattle.
In an online announcement, Google’s Yossi Matias
explained the latest progress. He noted that the system is
being tested in areas with severe traffic issues. Generally,
this is at major crossings with heavy traffic and complex
traffic lights. These areas where vehicles start and stop are
known as intersections.

Not all stressed syllables are of equal importance. Some stressed syllables have greater prominence than others, and form the nucleus, or focal point, of an intonation pattern. We may describe a nucleus as a strongly stressed syllable which marks a major change of pitch direction, i.e. where the pitch goes up or down.

You will need some knowledge of English intonation patterns if you are to understand English grammar more fully. This is because features of intonation are important for signalling grammatical distinctions, such as that between statements and questions. For example, a sentence like They are leaving can be a statement when said with falling intonation, but a question with rising intonation.

Representative samples of each cultural group are reproduced below. They show that the summaries by the American and French learners of German (cf. summary 7) remain close to the human interest story and its factual aspects, whereas the summaries by the German native speakers (summaries 8, 9 and 10) focus on the larger problem, of which Ender’s story is only an illustration.
