Nature in danger of extinction[
We are destroying our forests faster than any other ecological zone in our planet. 
Forests cover only 6% of the Earth’s lands but they have between 50% to 90% of all plant and animal species from the planet. But unfortunately, humanity is destroying the forests faster and faster.
Many species of the rainforests (the ones that are located in a tropical area and which receive a lot of rain) benefit all of us. Many medicines (pharmaceuticals), for example, come from the rainforest. China, Brazil, Australia, and Mexico have a large number of species in extinction.
We are losing 50-100 species of plants and animals every day. Lost of species become extinct from natural processes. If we lose 50% of our planet’s species, it will take evolution 5-20 million years to replace them. Humans should help endangered species. We can work together to stop this destruction!

Segundo o INEP, ao historicizar o ENEM – Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio – diz-se que esse é um patrimônio da sociedade brasileira de valor reconhecido pela comunidade educacional, na atualidade, empenhando-se em conquistar o apoio dos sistemas de ensino, das instituições de ensino superior e da comunidade de especialistas se educadores.
Aponta que “os pressupostos teórico-metodológicos do ENEM, fundamentados na LDB e nas diretrizes e parâmetros curriculares nacionais, foram explicitados e divulgados junto à comunidade educacional através das contribuições recebidas de especialistas em avaliação e currículo, pedagogos e profissionais do ensino com experiência em sala de aula.”
Como instrumento educativo, o ENEM precisa ser flexível para acompanhar as mudanças, uma vez que a educação é dinâmica, precisando ser interrogada criticamente e reinventada, a todo momento, como: 

TEXT 1 Learning a language – things you need to know Thinking about learning a foreign language? From ignoring your age to avoiding the F-word, our multilingual experts share their tips Holly Young 1. Make realistic, specific goals You have decided to learn another language. Now what? On our recent live chat our panellists first piece of advice was to ask yourself: what do you want to achieve and by when? Donavan Whyte, vice president of enterprise and education at Rosetta Stone, says: “Language learning is best when broken down into manageable goals that are achievable over a few months. This is far more motivating and realistic.” You might be feeling wildly optimistic when you start but aiming to be fluent is not necessarily the best idea. Phil McGowan, director at Verbmaps, recommends making these goals tangible and specific: “Why not set yourself a target of being able to read a newspaper article in the target language without having to look up any words in the dictionary?” 2. Remind yourself why you are learning It might sound obvious, but recognising exactly why you want to learn a language is really important. Alex Rawlings, a language teacher now learning his 13th language, says: “Motivation is usually the first thing to go, especially among students who are teaching themselves.” To keep the momentum going he suggests writing down 10 reasons you are learning a language and sticking it to the front of the file you are using: “I turn to these in times of self-doubt.” 3. Focus on exactly what you want to learn Often the discussion around how to learn a language slides into a debate about so-called traditional v tech approaches. For Aaron Ralby, director of Linguisticator, this debate misses the point: “The question is not so much about online v offline or app v book. Rather it should be how can we assemble the necessary elements of language for a particular objective, present them in a user-friendly way, and provide a means for students to understand those elements.” When signing up to a particular method or approach, think about the substance behind the style or technology. “Ultimately,” he says, “the learning takes place inside you rather that outside, regardless of whether it’s a computer or book or a teacher in front of you.” 4. Read for pleasure For many of our panellists, reading was not only great for making progress, but one of the most rewarding aspects of the learning experience. Alex Rawlings explains that reading for pleasure “exposes you to all sorts of vocabulary that you won’t find in day-to-day life, and normalises otherwise baffling and complicated grammatical structures. The first book you ever finish in a foreign language is a monumental achievement that you’ll remember for a long time.” 5. Learn vocabulary in context Memorising lists of vocabulary can be challenging, not to mention potentially dull. Ed Cooke, co-founder and chief executive of Memrise, believes that association is key to retaining new words: “Agreat way to build vocabulary is to make sure the lists you’re learning come from situations or texts that you have experienced yourself, so that the content is always relevant and connects to background experience.” 6. Ignore the myths: age is just a number You are a monolingual adult: have you missed the language boat? Ralby argues “a key language myth is that it’s harder as an adult”. Adults and children may learn in different ways but that shouldn’t deter you from committing to learning another language. “Languages are simultaneously organic and systematic. As children we learn languages organically and instinctively; as adults we can learn them systematically.” 7. Do some revision of your native language Speaking your first language may be second nature, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you understand it well. Kerstin Hammes, editor of the Fluent Language Blog, believes you can’t make good progress in a second language until you understand your own. “I think understanding your native language and just generally how language works is so essential before you launch yourself at a bunch of foreign phrases.” 8. Don’t underestimate the importance of translation Different approaches may be necessary at different stages of the learning process. Once you have reached a certain level of proficiency and can say quite a bit, fairly accurately, Rebecca Braun, senior lecturer in German studies at Lancaster University, says it is typical to feel a slowing down in progress. “Translation,” she says, “is such an important exercise for helping you get over a certain plateau that you will reach as a language learner ... Translation exercises don’t allow you to paraphrase and force the learner on to the next level.”. Available at: <https://www.theguardian.com/>. Accessed on: November 8th, 2018 (Adapted).

A respeito das diversas dimensões humanas que são exploradas na educação infantil, consta nos documentos oficiais do MEC que “as maneiras de andar, correr, arremessar, saltar resultam das interações sociais e da relação dos homens com o meio; são movimentos cujos significados têm sido construídos em função das diferentes necessidades, interesses e possibilidades corporais humanas presentes nas diferentes culturas em diversas épocas da história”. 
Nesse sentido pode-se dizer que tais movimentos incorporam-se aos comportamentos dos homens, constituindo-se assim numa:

The Digital Divide
A recent survey has shown that the number of people in the United Kingdom who do not intend to get Internet access has risen. These people, who are known as 'net refuseniks', make up 44% of UK households, or 11.2 million people in total.
The research also showed that more than 70 percent of these people said that they were not interested in getting connected to the Internet. This number has risen from just over 50% in 2005, with most giving lack of computer skills as a reason for not getting Internet access, though some also said it was because of the cost.
More and more people are getting broadband and high speed net is available almost everywhere in the UK, but there are still a significant number of people who refuse to take the first step.
The cost of getting online is going down and Internet speeds are increasing, so many see the main challenge to be explaining the relevance of the Internet to this group. This would encourage them to get connected before they are left too far behind. The gap between those who have access to and use the Internet and those who don't is the digital divide, and if the gap continues to widen, those without access will get left behind and miss out on many opportunities, especially in their careers.

Onde você mora?
Não tente achar um endereço no Japão. Os endereços por lá são quase tão indecifráveis quanto os ideogramas. Os bairros são subdivididos em pequenas regiões numeradas. Dentro de uma região, cada quarteirão tem um número, mas também dentro de cada quarteirão, cada casa ou edifício tem o seu número. Por exemplo: o endereço Shibuya 10-3-20 significa que o que você procura está na vigésima casa da terceira quadra da décima microrregião do distrito de Shibuya. Detalhe: nenhum desses números está visível nos nossos algarismos.
Pense duas vezes antes de reclamar. Talvez o fato de os japoneses adorarem viajar em grupo se deva a uma total incapacidade de entender o sistema ocidental de endereçamento. Como assim, Faria Lima com Rebouças? Qual é a lógica de essas duas avenidas fazerem esquina?
Na Inglaterra, um mesmo nome pode ser atribuído a uma street¹, a uma road² e a uma lane³, todas pertinho umas das outras – mas, até você descobrir qual é qual, lá se vão 15 minutos debaixo de chuva. O sistema perfeito seria o americano, com ruas e avenidas dispostas em grades numeradas em sequência perfeita e organizadas por ponto cardeal. O problema é que nós, brasileiros, temos problemas com norte, sul, leste e oeste. Nossos pontos cardeais são seis: à esquerda, à direita, na frente, atrás, em cima e embaixo. Quer uma prova? Nossa cidade com o sistema de endereçamento mais perfeito, Brasília, tem o mapa mais errado do planeta: a Asa Sul aparece no oeste, e a Asa Norte, no leste. Ano passado passei uma semana em Palmas, que teoricamente seguiu o sistema de Brasília. Quanto mais eu me deslocava, menos entendia a lógica da coisa. Acredito que se orientar na cidade requer o mesmo tipo de talento necessário para decifrar um manual de TV a cabo.
Mas o troféu de cidade brasileira onde é mais difícil achar um endereço vai para a bela, próspera e animadíssima Goiânia. Suas ruas são numeradas, mas não obedecem a nenhuma grade ou lógica. No fim das contas nem é preciso: basta decorar que a rua 146 do Setor Marista passa a se chamar Dom Emanuel Gomes e tudo o que você precisava saber sobre a noite da cidade está resolvido.

De acordo com o texto, infere-se que,
I. nos Estados Unidos, se adotam seis pontos cardeais para o endereçamento.
II. em Brasília, a Asa Sul deveria aparecer no sul e a Asa Norte, no norte.
III. em Palmas, o sistema de endereçamento obedece a mesma lógica que o de Goiânia.

  1   Nas duas últimas semanas, o Brasil acompanhou uma discussão a   2   respeito do livro didático Por uma vida melhor, da coleção Viver,   3   aprender, distribuída pelo Programa Nacional do Livro Didático do   4   MEC. Diante de posicionamentos virulentos externados na mídia, alguns   5   até histéricos, a ASSOCIAÇÃO BRASILEIRA DE LINGUÍSTICA   6   (ABRALIN) vê a necessidade de vir a público manifestar-se a respeito,   7   no sentido de endossar o posicionamento dos linguistas, pouco ouvidos   8   até o momento. [...]   9   O fato que, inicialmente, chamou a atenção foi que os críticos não 10   tiveram sequer o cuidado de analisar o livro em questão mais 11   atentamente. As críticas se pautaram sempre nas cinco ou seis linhas 12   largamente citadas. Vale notar que o livro acata orientações dos PCN 13   (Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais) em relação à concepção de 14   língua/linguagem, orientações que já estão em andamento há mais de 15   uma década. Além disso, não somente este, mas outros livros didáticos 16   englobam a discussão da variação linguística com o intuito de ressaltar o 17   papel e a importância da norma culta no mundo letrado. Portanto, em 18   nenhum momento houve ou há a defesa de que a norma culta não deva 19   ser ensinada. Ao contrário, entende-se que esse é o papel da escola, 20   garantir o domínio da norma culta para o acesso efetivo aos bens 21   culturais, ou seja, para a garantia do pleno exercício da cidadania. Esta é 22   a única razão que justifica a existência de uma disciplina que ensine 23   língua portuguesa a falantes nativos de português. [...]                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       Disponívele<http://www.abralin.org/noticia/Did.pdf>.
