Teaching a child to read
Imagery first: the colors primary
Familiar as the sun; the purpose sure –
To hear, to smell, to feel, to taste, to see.
The mind will enter by another door.
The verb is next: we are the rain that falls,
The frog that sees a cricket as it leaps,
The robin that flaps its wings and calls,
The fish that swims, the animal that creeps.
The third is narrative, the moving spell
Of syntax that ad-libs the myths of time.
Alas, we learn before the wishing well
Has dried how words become a hill to climb.
The fourth is symbol: goodness, beauty, love.
This is the time of quarrel, tears and pain.
Sowing the dragons’ teeth, we bob and weave
Until we bring the simple back again.

O texto seguinte servirá de base para responder a questão.
(1º§) Arthritis and osteoporosis are long-term conditions
that affect your bones. Arthritis causes swelling and
inflammation. Osteoporosis develops as a result of
decreased bone mass and density, and can lead to
fractures.
(2º§) Jane Atkinson looks at ways to keep your bones
and joints healthy. Regular, low-impact exercise can help
in the battle against joint pain. Nuffield Health has
launched a free joint pain programme to help sufferers
lead a more independent life - and you don't even need
to be a paying member of the gym to join up. As well as
exercises, it offers lifestyle tips and uses relaxation
techniques to try to help with pain so those affected can
sleep.
(3º§) The programme, which lasts six months, has
proven results. Of those who completed it, 69 per cent
say they have improvements in mobility, pain, general
fitness levels and overall quality of life. Among
participants who were in such pain they couldn't work, 30
per cent were able to return after week 12. Working out
what supplements you need and how much you need is
not always easy.
(4º§) Osteo Complete is a bone health complex that
includes calcium, vitamin D3, zinc, boron and copper.
These elements work together to help maintain your
musculoskeletal system, which supports the body and its
movements. Vitamin D3 is crucial for the absorption of
calcium. The minerals magnesium and zinc contribute to
normal protein synthesis, while copper helps maintain
connective tissues.
(5º§) These very tasty vanilla-flavoured tablets are a
good alternative for people who do not like swallowing
pills as you can chew them. 240 chewable tablets,
£18.95, healthspan.co.uk.
(6º§) The world has gone mad for collagen. There are
different types, but for bone health the best is Type I. It
provides structure to your skin, bones, tendons and
ligaments. The change is not instant. Take it regularly
and it could take a year to achieve the full results, but if
you are persistent it does work. I like Correxiko Marine
Collagen Type I. It comes from the skin of deep-sea fish,
caught off the coast of Canada.
(7º§) It is an unflavoured powder that you bung in water
or a coffee. Lisa Snowdon says her menopausal and
age-related aches and pains have gone since she started
using it. £39.95 for a 42-day supply, correxiko.com.

Why Easter is bad for ducks
On Christmas Eve, two Pekin ducks were found
frozen to a pond in Smithville, Ohio. They flapped their
wings and squawked, fruitlessly struggling to free
themselves until two locals, Maiara and Helder Bertolucci,
spotted them. The pair slid on their stomachs over razor-thin
ice and chiseled the animals free.
The rescued ducks—later named Olaf and Elsa, after
characters from Disney’s Frozen—were two of 109 domestic
ducks abandoned in a pond outside of a restaurant. A local
group ________ Good Sprout Rescue and Sanctuary rescued
the animals; two died, but the rest were rehomed to
sanctuaries or adopted. Every spring, the Barn Restaurant
would buy a hundred new babies for its patrons to enjoy—
but since this incident they’ve __________ not to do so
again.
Every year in springtime, particularly at Easter,
many people “impulse buy” ducklings as gifts, often for their
kids. But after the holiday, sometimes months later, animal
rescuers routinely see an uptick in abandoned adult ducks in
local parks and ponds, Di Leonardo says. There’s no
________ data on how often this happens, but he estimates
tens of thousands of domestic ducks are dumped each year
throughout the U.S. His organization rescues as many as 500
ducks per year in the New York City area alone.

La Mer lip balm is touted __ many celebs as a bit of a handbag necessity. But according to Mia, nothing beats a pot of good-old Vaseline. And while La Mer balm can set you back £58 ($75), Vaseline can be as cheap as a couple of pounds.
HOLY GRAIL I'm a dermatologist - here's how you get
can get rid of forehead wrinkles without Botox and
for under £10
(1º§)EACH passing day brings many moments that
cause you to furrow your brow. And the more face
scrunching you do, the more dreaded lines are likely to
emerge __ your forehead. But before you devote time
(and a decent amount of money) to fading those pesky
wrinkles, it's good idea to try and figure out what's really
causing your lines. If you're under 30, chances are your
forehead 'wrinkles' are in fact just dehydrated skin,
according to one medic.
(2º§)Dr Ivy Lee, a board-certified dermatologist practicing
in southern California, US, said dehydration lines can be
easily improved without splashing the cash on Botox.
She told Insider that unlike wrinkles caused by repetitive
muscle movement dehydration lines are finer and have a
"crepe paper-like texture when the affected skin is not
well hydrated." And while we may associate dehydration
with drinking water, the expert said drinking more water
does not have any added skin benefits. Instead, she
urges young people to use topical skin treatments.
What product should I use?
(3º§)Dr Ivy said you should look for moisturisers that
contain the following three ingredients:
Humectants, which attract water into the skin (eg:
hyaluronic acid)
Emollients, which repair the skin barrier and soften the
skin (ex: squalene and plant-derived oils).
Occlusives, which "trap moisture into the skin by creating
a seal," the expert said (ex: hydrated petroleum or
mineral oil).
(4º§) She recommended using CeraVe Moisturising
Cream - a 177ml tube from Boots costs will set up back
just £10.
Other cheap skincare products under £10
(5º§) There's no denying that luxury products contain
some premium ingredients and look pretty aesthetic, but
given the cost __ living crisis, affordable skincare is just
as important, especially when the products work just as
well. Some dermatologists have shared their favourite
skincare swaps for luxury products that they say work as
effectively as expensive versions.

La Mer lip balm is touted __ many celebs as a bit of a handbag necessity. But according to Mia, nothing beats a pot of good-old Vaseline. And while La Mer balm can set you back £58 ($75), Vaseline can be as cheap as a couple of pounds.
(7º§)The INKEY List Vitamin C serum vs SkinCeuticals
Vitamin C creams and serums can brighten your skin
and, according to some studies, can reduce the signs of
ageing. But these products can be expensive, because
they can be tricky to make, Rebecca explained.
SkinCeuticals' C E ferulic vitamin C antioxidant serum is
an excellent product, she said - but it will set you back a
whopping £165 ($182). Instead, why not give the INKEY
List's own vitamin C a whirl, Mia suggested, which only
costs £9.99 ($15.99).

Asteroids vs. comets: How do they differ, and do they pose a
threat to Earth?
Asteroids are _______________ chunks of rock that
measure in size from a few feet to hundreds of miles in
diameter. NASA has identified more than a million asteroids,
and more than 150 of them have their own moons. In 2022,
astronomers published evidence that the asteroid Elektra
has as many as _______ chunks of rock orbiting it—making it
the first known quadruple asteroid.
For many years, astronomers considered Ceres to
be the largest asteroid at about 590 miles wide. In 2006,
however, the International Astronomical Union reclassified
Ceres as a dwarf planet—making Vesta the largest asteroid
at 329 miles wide. Yet this remains a point of contention
among some astronomers, and the U.S. Geological Survey’s
Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature defines Ceres as both
an asteroid and a dwarf planet.
Comets are balls of ice and rock whose glowing tails
can sometimes be seen from Earth as they streak through
the night sky. Comets grow those tails whenever their orbits
bring them close to the sun, causing the icy objects to heat
up and _________ a trail of gas and dust. The sun
illuminates the tail, giving it a majestic glow.
Compared to asteroids, comets tend to have more
elliptical, or oval-shaped, orbits. They also contain more
chemical compounds that vaporize when heated, such as
water. And when observed through a telescope, comets
appear fuzzier than asteroids.

“In recent years Content-Based Instruction (CBI) has become increasingly popular as a means of developing
linguistic ability. It has strong connections to project work, task-based learning and a holistic approach to language
instruction and has become particularly popular within the state school secondary (11 - 16 years old) education
sector. It is a kind of approach in which lesson focuses on the topic or subject matter. During the lesson students
are focused on learning about something that interests them, from a serious science subject to their favorite pop
star or even a topical news story or film”.
Peachey, N. (2021), disponível em: https://www.teachingenglish.org.uk/article/content-based-instruction, accessed on 15h December 2022.
According to Peachey, judge the items as (T) True or (F) False concerning CBI ADVANTAGES.
I. It can make learning a language more interesting and motivating. Students can use the language to fulfill a real purpose, which can make them both more independent and confident.
II. Taking information from different sources, re-evaluating and restructuring that information can help students to develop very valuable thinking skills that can then be transferred to other subjects. So students can also develop a much wider knowledge of the world through CBI, which can feed back into improving and supporting their general educational needs.
III. CBI is very popular among EAP (English for Academic Purposes) teachers as it helps students to develop valuable study skills such as note taking, summarizing and extracting key information from texts.
IV. The inclusion of a group work element within the framework given can also help students to develop their collaborative skills, which can have great social value. V. Particularly in monolingual classes, the overuse of the students' native language during parts of the lesson can be a problem. Because the lesson isn't explicitly focused on language practice, students find it much easier and quicker to use their mother tongue.
VI. It can be hard to find information sources and texts that lower levels can understand. Also the sharing of information in the target language may cause great difficulties.
Choose the CORRECT sequence.
