BIG CAT ATTACK
(1º§) Farmer Pedro Vaz Ferreira was out hunting on
Saturday with his two sons in the rural area of
Portel, Brazil when he was savaged by the big cat.
(2º§) The feline's brutal attack left the 67-year-old in
a serious state of health - as he reportedly suffered
a partially disfigured face, some broken cheek
bones and went blind in one eye.
(3º§) His two sons, Davi, 32, and 25-year-old Josue
witnessed as the elderly man and animal even
tussled for a few minutes. Davi told the news outlet
O Liberal: "The three of us were in the forest, but it
just attacked him. "The most serious wound is on
his face. It broke the bones in his face, his nose, it
blinded him. "He lost his vision instantly. It pierced
his eye with its nail." Shortly after the attack, one of
Mr Ferreira's sons reportedly killed the jaguar with a
machete.
(4º§) Mr Ferreira's relatives took him by speedboat
to the Hospital Wilson da Mota Silveira in Portel. He
remained there in a serious condition until Monday,
when he was transferred to a larger hospital in
Ananindeua - 200km away.
(5º§) Jaguar attacks are considered rare in Brazil,
as experts have cited them as the least likely of all
big cats to kill and eat humans.
(6º§) Recently, another Brazilian was attacked by
an alligator - but managed to make a lucky escape
with only a bite on his arm. The daredevil had
decided to go for a swim in a popular tourist
destination, the Lago do Amor in Campo Grande -
ignoring warning signs that a lake was infested with
the predators.
(7º§) In July, another Brazilian's fate was not so
fortunate as he was mauled to death by a shark
after walking into the sea to pee. The victim had
reportedly been drinking with friends before he
entered the water and was fatally bitten by the
vicious animal.

Text 9A3-I
If you were to judge 2018’s most important legal technology by looking at conference agendas and media coverage, you’d probably say it was the continuing development of artificial intelligence. But if you judge the most important technology by its direct impact on the practice of law, then it would have to be analytics. As I suggested in a recent column, we could be nearing the point where it would be malpractice for a lawyer not to use analytics.

The European Environment Agency (EEA) has published
a new indicator that tracks findings of pesticides in Europe’s
rivers, lakes and groundwaters. The data, collected from EEA
member countries across Europe, shows the share of water bodies
where excessive levels of pesticides have been recorded from
2013 to 2019.
The new EEA indicator shows that levels of pesticides
exceeding thresholds were measured in a quarter of all reported
monitoring sites in European surface waters in 2019. From 2013
to 2019, this share varied between 13% and 30%. The share for
groundwater with exceedances was considerably lower, at
between 3% and 7%.
In the EU, pesticides are regulated on the basis of high
protection goals for human health and the environment, with
being authorised only after a comprehensive scientific risk
assessment. Nevertheless, pesticide contamination of surface
waters and groundwater can still occur and could affect aquatic
fauna and flora.
Internet: <www.eea.europa.eu> (adapted).
According to the text above, judge the following item.
Contamination by pesticides in European waters is less likely to occur than in other places in the world due to strict control policies.

There’s growing evidence that people and the planet are
increasingly impacted by extreme events. According to the
Fourth National Climate Assessment, published in 2018 by the
U.S. Global Change Research Program, “more frequent and
intense extreme weather and climate-related events, as well as
changes in average climate conditions, are expected to continue
to damage infrastructure, ecosystems, and social systems that
provide essential benefits to communities.”
As the impacts of extreme events continue to mount,
interest has grown in the scientific community to study whether
specific extreme events can be partially attributed to human
activities. With the help of climate models, scientists have
conducted an impressive array of studies, looking for possible
links between human activities and extreme events such as heat
waves, rainfall and flooding events, droughts, storms, and
wildfires. Increasingly, they’re able to draw robust connections.

Phishing
Imagine that you get an email one morning. It appears
to be from your bank. The email warns that someone
broke into your account. It says that you need to sign
in to check some things. You click the link in the email.
It takes you to a site that looks very much like your
bank’s. You enter your username and password. You
submit the form. You’ve just been phished!
Phishing is a type of attack that happens over the
Internet. Users receive an email or text message that
seems like it came from a trusted source. These users
are being deceived. They are interacting with dangerous hackers. The attackers copy trusted companies.
They send users to web pages that look like the ones
we use everyday. When users login or provide sensitive information, the attackers steal this data.
Attackers want your data for many reasons. They may
use your data to commit identity fraud. This is when
they use your identity to buy something with your credit. Then they receive the goods and you receive the bill.
Or they may want your password to take over a computer network. They may want access to private emails.
They may want customer records. They gain access by
tricking people into giving them their login info.
Some phishing attacks are targeted. A targeted
phishing attack is called a spear phishing attack. These
attacks are dangerous because they are convincing.
The attacker may know the target’s name, address,
or job title. They may have gathered info from social
networks, like the names of friends or family. The
attackers may use this personal information to craft a
believable email. The target will be tricked into clicking a link. The link will send them to a phony website.
This site will look familiar, but it will be a spoofed site
built to steal data. Any data that the target submits
will go to the hacker.
Phishing attacks are dangerous, but you can spot them
if you pay attention. One thing to watch is your address
bar in your browser. Attackers use domains that look
like the ones that we trust, but they are not the same.
For example, in 2016 staffers from Hillary Clinton’s
campaign were spear phished. The attackers used the
domain accounts-google.com. That domain looks like
google.com, but it isn’t the same. When logging into
google, you should always do it from google.com. Likewise, when logging into any account, make sure the
address matches what you expect. If you are unsure,
search for the site and login from the root domain.
An even better way to secure your account against
phishing attacks is to use 2FA: two factor authentication. 2FA means that your account is secured with
two keys. The first is your password. The second key is
a random code that changes every few minutes. This
code may be generated by a 2FA app, like Authy. Or it
can be sent to your cell phone on request. If you activate 2FA on your accounts, an attacker will not be able
to get in even with your password.
Phishing attacks are scary and common. The reason
why they are common is that they are effective. Many
people accept appearances without suspicion. Browsing the Internet safely requires a healthy amount of
suspicion. Not everything is what it appears. Nobody
is trying to give you free money. Don’t trust; verify.
In the sentence “This site will look familiar, but
it will be a spoofed site built to steal data.”, the correct definition for the word spoofed is in which
alternative?

use your data to commit identity fraud. This is when
they use your identity to buy something with your credit. Then they receive the goods and you receive the bill.
Or they may want your password to take over a computer network. They may want access to private emails.
They may want customer records. They gain access by
tricking people into giving them their login info.
Some phishing attacks are targeted. A targeted
phishing attack is called a spear phishing attack. These
attacks are dangerous because they are convincing.
The attacker may know the target’s name, address,
or job title. They may have gathered info from social
networks, like the names of friends or family. The
attackers may use this personal information to craft a
believable email. The target will be tricked into clicking a link. The link will send them to a phony website.
This site will look familiar, but it will be a spoofed site
built to steal data. Any data that the target submits
will go to the hacker.
Phishing attacks are dangerous, but you can spot them
if you pay attention. One thing to watch is your address
bar in your browser. Attackers use domains that look
like the ones that we trust, but they are not the same.
For example, in 2016 staffers from Hillary Clinton’s
campaign were spear phished. The attackers used the
domain accounts-google.com. That domain looks like
google.com, but it isn’t the same. When logging into
google, you should always do it from google.com. Likewise, when logging into any account, make sure the
address matches what you expect. If you are unsure,
search for the site and login from the root domain.
An even better way to secure your account against
phishing attacks is to use 2FA: two factor authentication. 2FA means that your account is secured with
two keys. The first is your password. The second key is
a random code that changes every few minutes. This
code may be generated by a 2FA app, like Authy. Or it
can be sent to your cell phone on request. If you activate 2FA on your accounts, an attacker will not be able
to get in even with your password.
Phishing attacks are scary and common. The reason
why they are common is that they are effective. Many
people accept appearances without suspicion. Browsing the Internet safely requires a healthy amount of
suspicion. Not everything is what it appears. Nobody
is trying to give you free money. Don’t trust; verify.

Phishing
Imagine that you get an email one morning. It appears
to be from your bank. The email warns that someone
broke into your account. It says that you need to sign
in to check some things. You click the link in the email.
It takes you to a site that looks very much like your
bank’s. You enter your username and password. You
submit the form. You’ve just been phished!
Phishing is a type of attack that happens over the
Internet. Users receive an email or text message that
seems like it came from a trusted source. These users
are being deceived. They are interacting with dangerous hackers. The attackers copy trusted companies.
They send users to web pages that look like the ones
we use everyday. When users login or provide sensitive information, the attackers steal this data.
