According to Kramsch (2009), literature
aids students in their development of an
ability to understand the symbolic value of
symbolic form and the different cultural
memories evoked by different symbolic systems. Additionally, it also helps them draw
on the semiotic diversity afforded by multiple
languages so that they may reframe ways of
seeing familiar events, create alternative
realities, and find an appropriate subject
position between languages. Considering
Kramsch’s position about the use of literature
in English classes, analyse the following
statements and choose which one(s) is (are)
correct:
I - Literature may be an interesting resource in English classes, as long as the teacher applies it to discuss topics familiar to the students. II - Coherent with the intercultural perspective for foreign languages teaching, literature may be considered a useful tool for giving students an opportunity to interact with different cultures and linguistic manifestations. III - Symbolic competence, as proposed by Kramsch, has to do with a sort of critical awareness that the literary text may be of great aid to develop. IV - Symbolic competence refers to the ability to decode linguistic signs.

Amparo Hurtado Albir (2009) proposes
that, in addition to the four language
competences (listening, reading, speaking
and writing), there is also a fifth one, which
she calls Translation Competence. As she
sees it, such competence consists in joining
linguistic competences with extra-linguistic
ones – i.e. of an overt cultural,
psychophysiological, and strategic character.
Strategic competence, in her view, may be
deemed the most important one among all the
aforementioned. Considering the development
of Translation Competence for foreign
language students, with a special focus on its
strategic aspect, it is correct to affirm that:

All cultures have habits, beliefs, and
values that differ from one another. In this
sense, interacting effectively with a native
speaker of another language, belonging to
another cultural universe, also depends on the
ability to recognize these differences –
critically, but also respectfully. Recognizing
the different cultures involved in the process
of meaning-making is usually called
Intercultural Competence. About the
Intercultural Approach, it is correct to say
that:

During the XXI Century, we have been
experiencing many changes in the way people
communicate. The appearance of new
technologies (e.g. e-mail, chat rooms,
conversation apps, dating apps, etc.)
represents a massive contribution for the
consolidation of new relationship patterns.
Consequently, language has also acquired a
new space for a specific development.
According to Bothz (2008), most of what is
posted online is written in English. In the
contemporaneity, it is also true that English is
considered the “universal language” for the
communication between speakers of different
native languages. Having this “universality” of
English language in mind, as well as its
massive presence in the new technologies of our times, consider the following statements
regarding the contemporary EFL classroom:
I - The use of the internet, forums, and conversation apps is useful for it brings the student closer to real and tangible contexts of communication. II - The internet provides us with interesting tools for grammar contents to be assessed in less formal contexts of communication. III - Because of security issues, it is most advisable to keep technologies out of English classes. Anyways, if the teacher chooses to use them, it is indispensable for him/her to keep constant attention and vigilance to what is being explored. IV - As the importance of internationalisation processes of educational institutions have already been recognized, technology now plays a fundamental role for the contact between professionals and for the sharing of information.
The INCORRECT statements are:

In the current Brazilian context, especially
in educational institutions, internationalisation
policies have proved to be of great relevance.
Internationalisation is based on the idea that
increased bonds between different institutions
situated in different sociocultural contexts,
and with different developments, can
contribute to the growth of every part of the
process. Just as, in distinct spheres, the
world has become increasingly globalised,
similar dynamics can be spot in what regards
knowledge. In this sense, the study of foreign
languages, particularly of English (as our
greater lingua franca), plays a key role for
mediating such process. Regarding the idea of
language teaching in this context of
internationalisation, it is correct to affirm that:

Q1646470
Inglês
Language, as a form of social behaviour,
presents different variations according to the
context of its application, the community
applying it, and the degree of formality
demanded by the communicative situation.
Research about these variations concerns
Sociolinguistics. As it is true for the studies
regarding native languages, according to
Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais (BRASIL,
2000), foreign language classes should,
among other things, help students develop an
ability to identify different linguistic variants,
consequently making them grow more
capable of communicating in various contexts.
Considering Sociolinguistics and the
importance of studying linguistic variants in
English as a foreign language, it is right do
affirm that:
I - Sociolinguistics focuses on the patterns of linguistic behaviour observable within a community of speech, recognizing language as a social reality. II - Addressing English linguistic variations is essential for it sheds a light on peripheral cultures and peoples who are generally set aside during English teaching and learning. III - Sociolinguistics has to do with the relationship established between languages and societies and, therefore, it is right to say that it is more relevant for Brazilians to learn the American variation, given the economic and politic relationship that Brazil established with the U.S.A. IV - Only standard English should be studied, as knowing other linguistic variants of the language represents no benefit to the learner during communication.

Read the following excerpt:
“Three nights later old Major died peacefully in his sleep. His body was buried at the foot of the orchard. This was early in March. During the next three months there was much secret activity. Major's speech had given to the more intelligent animals on the farm a completely new outlook on life. They did not know when the Rebellion predicted by Major would take place, they had no reason for thinking that it would be within their own lifetime, but they saw clearly that it was their duty to prepare for it. The work of teaching and organising the others fell naturally upon the pigs, who were generally recognised as being the cleverest of the animals. Pre−eminent among the pigs were two young boars named Snowball and Napoleon, whom Mr. Jones was breeding up for sale. Napoleon was a large, rather fierce−looking Berkshire boar, the only Berkshire on the farm, not much of a talker, but with a reputation for getting his own way. Snowball was a more vivacious pig than Napoleon, quicker in speech and more inventive, but was not considered to have the same depth of character. All the other male pigs on the farm were porkers. The best known among them was a small fat pig named Squealer, with very round cheeks, twinkling eyes, nimble movements, and a shrill voice. He was a brilliant talker, and when he was arguing some difficult point he had a way of skipping from side to side and whisking his tail which was somehow very persuasive”.

Read this excerpt of an article of The New
York Times:
Breast Milk Is Teeming With Bacteria — That’s Good for the Baby Breast-fed milk may nourish a baby’s microbiome in ways that bottled breast milk can’t.
In the earliest days after birth, millions of bacteria make their home in a baby’s body — in the skin, mouth and especially the gut. These immigrants come from the birth canal and the mother’s feces (during a vaginal birth), the mother’s skin and mouth as she holds and nuzzles the baby and perhaps even from the placenta, although that source is still debated. The colonizing microbiome can have a farreaching impact on the baby’s health. Studies have suggested, for instance, that the populace of a baby’s microbiome in the first two years of life may predict later risk of obesity. Children born by cesarean section are also more likely to become obese, or to develop autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes and asthma. Lately, scientists have identified another major contributor to the infant microbiome. Breast milk, it turns out, is teeming with bacteria that colonize the infant’s gut, and could help set the course for the baby’s growing immune system and metabolism.
