We believe that a sense of active citizenship needs to be developed and schools have an important role in the
process. If we agree that language is discourse, and that it is in discourse that we construct our meanings,
then we may perceive the foreign language classrooms in our schools as an ideal space for discussing the
procedures for ascribing meanings to the world. In a foreign language we learn different interpretive proce-
dures, different ways to understand the world. If our foreign language teaching happens in a critical literacy
perspective, then we also learn that such different ways to interpret reality are legitimized and valued according
to socially and historically constructed criteria that can be collectively reproduced and accepted or questioned
and changed. Hence our view of the EFL classroom, at least in Brazil, as an ideal space for the development
of citizenship: the EFL classrooms can adopt a critical discursive view of reality that helps students see claims
to truth as arbitrary, and power as a transitory force which, although being always present, is also in permanent
change, in a movement that constantly allows for radical transformation. The EFL classroom can thus raise
students’ perception of their role in the transformation of society, once it might provide them with a space where
they are able to challenge their own views, to question where different perspectives (including those allegedly
present in the texts) come from and where they lead to. By questioning their assumptions and those perceived
in the texts, and in doing so also broadening their views, we claim students will be able to see themselves as
critical subjects, capable of acting upon the world.

VWe believe that there is nothing wrong with using the mother tongue in the foreign language classroom, since
strictly speaking, the mother tongue is also foreign - it’s not “mine”, but “my mother’s”: it was therefore foreign
as I first learned it and while I was learning to use its interpretive procedures. When using critical literacy in the
teaching of foreign languages we assume that a great part of the discussions proposed in the FL class may
happen in the mother tongue. Such discussions will bring meaning to the classroom, moving away from the
notion that only simple ideas can be dealt with in the FL lesson because of the students’ lack of proficiency to
produce deeper meanings and thoughts in the FL. Since the stress involved in trying to understand a foreign
language is eased, students will be able to bring their “real” world to their English lessons and, by so doing,
discussions in the mother tongue will help students learn English as a social practice of meaning-making.

What to Know About the Controversy Surrounding the Movie Green Book
Depending on who you ask, Green Book is either the pinnacle of movie magic or a whitewashing sham.
The film, which took home the prize for Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards, as well as honors for
Mahershala Ali as Best Supporting Actor and Nick Vallelonga, Brian Currie and Peter Farrelly for Best Original
Screenplay, depicts the burgeoning friendship between a black classical pianist and his Italian- American driver
as they travel the 1960s segregated South on a concert tour. But while Green Book was an awards frontrunner
all season, its road to Oscar night was riddled with missteps and controversies over its authenticity and racial
politics.
Green Book is about the relationship between two real-life people: Donald Shirley and Tony “Lip” Vallelonga.
Shirley was born in 1927 and grew up in a well-off black family in Florida, where he emerged as a classical
piano prodigy: he possessed virtuosic technique and a firm grasp of both classical and pop repertoire. He went
on to perform regularly at Carnegie Hall— right below his regal apartment—and work with many prestigious
orchestras, like the Chicago Symphony and the New York Philharmonic. But at a time when prominent black
classical musicians were few and far between due to racist power structures, he never secured a spot in the
upper echelons of the classical world. (African Americans still only make up 1.8 percent of musicians playing
in orchestras nationwide, according to a recent study.)
Vallelonga was born in 1930 to working-class Italian parents and grew up in the Bronx. As an adult he worked
as a bouncer, a maître d’ and a chauffeur, and he was hired in 1962 to drive Shirley on a concert tour through
the Jim Crow South. The mismatched pair spent one and a half years together on the road — though it’s con-
densed to just a couple of months in the film — wriggling out of perilous situations and learning about each
other’s worlds. Vallelonga would later become an actor and land a recurring role on The Sopranos.
In the 1980s, Vallelonga’s son, Nick, approached his father and Shirley about making a movie about their
friendship. For reasons that are now contested, Shirley rebuffed these requests at the time. […]
The expression “as well as” in “as well as honors for Mahershala Ali as Best Supporting Actor and Nick Valle-
longa” indicates
(A) comparison.
(B) opposition.
(C) condition.
(D) emphasis.
(E) addition.

Conversations and focus on sustainability, typically grouped into environmental, social and governance (ESG)
issues, are quickly evolving — from activist investor groups and inquisitive regulators pushing for change to
governing bodies and C-suite executives struggling to understand and embrace the concept. At the forefront
of this new risk area is pressure for organizations to make public commitments to sustainability and provide
routine updates to ESG-related strategies, goals, and metrics that are accurate and relevant. However, ESG
reporting is still immature, and there is not a lot of definitive guidance for organizations in this space. For exam-
ple, there is no single standard for what should be reported.
What is clear is that strong governance over ESG — as with effective governance overall — requires alignment
among the principal players as outlined in The Internal Institute of Auditors (IIA) Three Lines Model. As with
any risk area, internal audit should be well-positioned to support the governing body and management with
objective assurance, insights, and advice on ESG matters.
Efforts to mitigate the accelerating effects of climate change and address perceived historical social inequities
are two powerful issues driving change globally. These movements have enhanced awareness of how all or-
ganizations impact, influence, and interact with society and the environment.
They also have spurred organizations to better recognize and manage ESG risks (i.e., risks associated with
how organizations operate in respect to their impact on the world around them). This broad risk category inclu-
des areas that are dynamic and often driven by factors that can be difficult to measure objectively.
Still, there is growing urgency for organizations to understand and manage ESG risks, particularly as investors
and regulators focus on organizations producing high- quality reporting on sustainability efforts. What’s more,
that pressure is being reflected increasingly in executive performance as more organizations tie incentive com-
pensation metrics to ESG goals.
As ESG reporting becomes increasingly common, it should be treated with the same care as financial repor-
ting. Organizations need to recognize that ESG reporting must be built on a strategically crafted system of in-
ternal controls and accurately reflect how an organization’s ESG efforts relate to each other, the organization’s
finances, and value creation.
Internal audit can and should play a significant role in an organization’s ESG journey. It can add value in an
advisory capacity by helping to identify and establish a functional ESG control environment. It also can offer

14. FGV – AUDITOR FEDERAL DE FINANÇAS E CONTROLE – CONTROLADORIA GERAL DA UNIÃO –
AUDITORIA E FISCALIZAÇÃO - 2022
In auditing, the concept of professional skepticism is ubiquitous. Just as a Jedi in Star Wars is constantly trying
to hone his understanding of the “force”, an auditor is constantly crafting his or her ability to apply professional
skepticism. It is professional skepticism that provides the foundation for decision-making when conducting an
attestation engagement.
A brief definition
The professional standards define professional skepticism as “an attitude that includes a questioning mind,
being alert to conditions that may indicate possible misstatement due to fraud or error, and a critical assess-
ment of audit evidence.” Given this definition, one quickly realizes that professional skepticism can’t be easily
measured. Nor is it something that is cultivated overnight. It is a skill developed over time and a skill that audi-
tors should constantly build and refine.
Recently, the extent to which professional skepticism is being employed has gained a lot of criticism. Speci-
fically, regulatory bodies argue that auditors are not skeptical enough in carrying out their duties. However,
as noted in the white paper titled Scepticism: The Practitioners’ Take, published by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants in England and Wales, simply asking for more skepticism is not a practical solution to this issue,
nor is it necessarily always desirable. There is an inevitable tug of war between professional skepticism and
audit efficiency. The more skeptical the auditor, typically, the more time it takes to complete the audit.
On reading the title, the reader is led to assume that, besides defining, the author will:
(A) lay out clear tools for hiring professionals;
(B) inveigh against the major issues in the area;
(C) provide a rationale supporting the main topic;
12
1723219 E-book gerado especialmente para DANYLLO JACKSON DE SOUZA AMANCIO
(D) build up strategies to deny previous assumptions;
(E) resume alternatives which may have been proposed.

The professional standards define professional skepticism as “an attitude that includes a questioning mind,
being alert to conditions that may indicate possible misstatement due to fraud or error, and a critical assess-
ment of audit evidence.” Given this definition, one quickly realizes that professional skepticism can’t be easily
measured. Nor is it something that is cultivated overnight. It is a skill developed over time and a skill that audi-
tors should constantly build and refine.
Recently, the extent to which professional skepticism is being employed has gained a lot of criticism. Speci-
fically, regulatory bodies argue that auditors are not skeptical enough in carrying out their duties. However,
as noted in the white paper titled Scepticism: The Practitioners’ Take, published by the Institute of Chartered
Accountants in England and Wales, simply asking for more skepticism is not a practical solution to this issue,
nor is it necessarily always desirable. There is an inevitable tug of war between professional skepticism and
audit efficiency. The more skeptical the auditor, typically, the more time it takes to complete the audit.

scope to which the definition of professional skepticism applies: the auditor.
It is also important to be critical of your own work, and never become complacent. This may be the most difficult
type of skepticism to apply, as most of us do not like to have our work criticized. However, critically reviewing
one’s own work, essentially as an informal first level of review, will allow you to take a step back and consider
it from a different vantage point, which may in turn help detect errors otherwise left unnoticed. Essentially, you
should both consider evidence that supports the initial conclusion and evidence that may be contradictory to
that conclusion.
The discussion in auditing circles about professional skepticism and how to appropriately apply it continues. It
is a challenging notion that’s difficult to adequately articulate.

The extract that refers specifically to a clash that cannot be avoided is:
(A) “There is an inevitable tug of war between professional skepticism and audit efficiency”;
(B) “By its definition, professional skepticism is a concept that specifically applies to auditors, and is not on
point when it comes to other audit stakeholders”;
(C) “First and foremost, how your auditor applies professional skepticism to your audit directly impacts the
quality of their service”;
(D) “This nuanced distinction is necessary to maintain the limited scope to which the definition of professional
skepticism applies: the auditor”;
(E) “Essentially, you should both consider evidence that supports the initial conclusion and evidence that may
be contradictory to that conclusion”.

professional skepticism is independent from the information he or she is analyzing. Other audit stakeholders,
such as members of management or the board of directors, are naturally advocates for the organizations they
manage and direct and therefore can’t be considered independent, whereas an auditor is required to remain
independent.
However, rather than audit stakeholders applying professional skepticism as such, these other stakeholders
should apply an impartial and diligent mindset to their work and the information they review. This allows the
audit stakeholder to remain an advocate for his or her organization, while applying critical skills similar to those
applied in the exercise of professional skepticism. This nuanced distinction is necessary to maintain the limited
scope to which the definition of professional skepticism applies: the auditor.
It is also important to be critical of your own work, and never become complacent. This may be the most difficult

In 2020, even while economies bent under the weight of Covid-19 lockdowns, renewable sources of energy
such as wind and solar PV continued to grow rapidly, and electric vehicles set new sales records. The new
energy economy will be more electrified, efficient, interconnected and clean. Its emergence is the product of a
virtuous circle of policy action and technology innovation, and its momentum is now sustained by lower costs.
In most markets, solar PV or wind now represents the cheapest available source of new electricity generation.
Clean energy technology is becoming a major new area for investment and employment – and a dynamic
arena for international collaboration and competition. At the moment, however, every data point showing the
speed of change in energy can be countered by another showing the stubbornness of the status quo. The ra-
pid but uneven economic recovery from last year’s Covid-induced recession is putting major strains on parts
of today’s energy system, sparking sharp price rises in natural gas, coal and electricity markets. For all the
advances being made by renewables and electric mobility, 2021 is seeing a large rebound in coal and oil use.
Largely for this reason, it is also seeing the second-largest annual increase in CO2 emissions in history. Public
spending on sustainable energy in economic recovery packages has only mobilised around one-third of the
investment required to jolt the energy system onto a new set of rails, with the largest shortfall in developing
economies that continue to face a pressing public health crisis. Progress towards universal energy access has
stalled, especially in sub-Saharan Africa.
The direction of travel is a long way from alignment with the IEA’s landmark Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Sce-
nario (NZE), published in May 2021, which charts a narrow but achievable roadmap to a 1.5C stabilisation in
rising global temperatures and the achievement of other energy-related sustainable development goals.

higher since the pre-industrial age, with visible impacts on weather and climate extremes. The energy sector
has to be at the heart of the solution to climate change.
At the same time, modern energy is inseparable from the livelihoods and aspirations of a global population that

TEXT I
Police officers’ ability to recognize and locate individuals with a history of committing crime is vital to their work.
In fact, it is so important that officers believe possessing it is fundamental to the craft of effective street policing,
crime prevention and investigation. However, with the total police workforce falling by almost 20 percent since
2010 and recorded crime rising, police forces are turning to new technological solutions to help enhance their
capability and capacity to monitor and track individuals about whom they have concerns.
One such technology is Automated Facial Recognition (known as AFR). This works by analyzing key facial
features, generating a mathematical representation of them, and then comparing them against known faces in
a database, to determine possible matches. While a number of UK and international police forces have been
enthusiastically exploring the potential of AFR, some groups have spoken about its legal and ethical status.
They are concerned that the technology significantly extends the reach and depth of surveillance by the state.
Until now, however, there has been no robust evidence about what AFR systems can and cannot deliver for
policing. Although AFR has become increasingly familiar to the public through its use at airports to help mana-
ge passport checks, the environment in such settings is quite controlled. Applying similar procedures to street
policing is far more complex. Individuals on the street will be moving and may not look directly towards the ca-
mera. Levels of lighting change, too, and the system will have to cope with the vagaries of the British weather.
[…]
As with all innovative policing technologies there are important legal and ethical concerns and issues that still
need to be considered. But in order for these to be meaningfully debated and assessed by citizens, regulators
and law-makers, we need a detailed understanding of precisely what the technology can realistically accom-
plish. Sound evidence, rather than references to science fiction technology --- as seen in films such as Minority
Report --- is essential.
With this in mind, one of our conclusions is that in terms of describing how AFR is being applied in policing
currently, it is more accurate to think of it as “assisted facial recognition,” as opposed to a fully automated sys-
tem. Unlike border control functions -- where the facial recognition is more of an automated system -- when
supporting street policing, the algorithm is not deciding whether there is a match between a person and what is
stored in the database. Rather, the system makes suggestions to a police operator about possible similarities.
It is then down to the operator to confirm or refute them.
Based on the information provided by Text I, mark the statements below as true (T) or false (F).
( ) In relation to AFR, ethical and legal implications are being brought up.
( ) There is enough data to prove that AFR is efficient in street policing.
( ) AFR performance may be affected by changes in light and motion.

TEXT I
The climate crisis is still raging. A year ago, news headlines were dominated by the climate youth movement
and a sense of urgency. But COVID-19 has displaced that interest and awareness. In fact, the causes of both
crises share commonalities, and their effects are converging. The climate emergency and COVID-19, a zoo-
notic disease, are both borne of human activity that has led to environmental degradation. Neither the climate
emergency nor a zoonotic pandemic were unexpected. Both have led to the preventable loss of lives through
actions that are delayed, insufficient, or mistaken. However, aligning responses presents an opportunity to
improve public health, create a sustainable economic future, and better protect the planet’s remaining natural
resources and biodiversity.
That health and climate change are interwoven is widely accepted, with extensive evidence of their interac-
tions. For the past 5 years, the Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change has monitored and reported
more than 40 global indicators that measure the impact of our changing climate on health. The newly published
2020 report includes novel indicators on heat-related mortality, migration and population displacement, urban
green spaces, low-carbon diets, and the economic costs of labour capacity loss due to extreme heat. The
breadth of the indicators has deepened scientific understanding of how climate affects health and puts stress
on health systems.
[…]
Curbing the drivers of climate change will help to suppress the emergence and re-emergence of zoonotic
diseases that are made more likely by intensive farming, international trade of exotic animals, and increased
human encroachment into wildlife habitats, which in turn increase the likelihood of contact between people and
zoonotic disease. Increased international travel and urbanisation leading to higher population density encou-
rage the rapid spread of zoonoses once they spill over into the human population. These factors also have an
important role in climate change as environmental determinants of health.
Both COVID-19 and the climate crisis have exposed the fact that the poorest and most marginalised people
in society, such as migrants and refugee populations, are always the most vulnerable to shocks. With regard
to climate change, those most impacted by extremes have usually contributed the least to the root causes of
the crisis. This year’s Countdown report finds that no country is immune to avoidable loss of lives arising from
widening inequalities, with every indicator in the report following a worsening trend.
Climate has slipped from the top of the global agenda because of political indifference and the need to deal
with the immediacies of COVID-19. 5 years on from the Paris Agreement, seizing the opportunity to refocus
interests on sustainability offers the cobenefits of protecting our future health, the environment, and our pla-
netary systems. As governments embark on economic recovery plans in the wake of COVID-19, concerns for
22
1723219 E-book gerado especialmente para DANYLLO JACKSON DE SOUZA AMANCIO
climate change and equity are rightly focused on a green recovery. A global rapid transition to clean energy
sources is needed, ending the stranglehold of fossil fuels. Decisions being made now must tackle both crises
together to ensure the most effective response to each.

Telehealth Is The Future But May Also Be Healthcare Security’s Achilles’ Heel
Everything changed overnight for telehealth at the onset of Covid-19. We went from a small footprint to telehe-
alth becoming one of the most common ways Americans access care. According to the Department of Health
and Human Services, nearly half of Medicare primary care visits were telehealth visits in April 2020, compared
to 0.1% in February. Waiting weeks to months for a 15-minute physician exam is no longer acceptable for
many when you can just set up a quick telehealth conference. However, with widespread healthcare breaches
making news, such as the recent suspected ransomware hack on United Health Services, security executives
should be on guard because the rise of telehealth has provided new entry points for hackers to exploit.

26. FGV – PROFESSOR – PREFEITURA DE SALVADOR – LÍNGUA ESTRANGEIRA - 2019
We believe that a sense of active citizenship needs to be developed and schools have an important role in the
process. If we agree that language is discourse, and that it is in discourse that we construct our meanings,
then we may perceive the foreign language classrooms in our schools as an ideal space for discussing the
procedures for ascribing meanings to the world. In a foreign language we learn different interpretive proce-
dures, different ways to understand the world. If our foreign language teaching happens in a critical literacy
perspective, then we also learn that such different ways to interpret reality are legitimized and valued according
to socially and historically constructed criteria that can be collectively reproduced and accepted or questioned
and changed.
Hence our view of the EFL classroom, at least in Brazil, as an ideal space for the development of citizenship:
the EFL classrooms can adopt a critical discursive view of reality that helps students see claims to truth as
arbitrary, and power as a transitory force which, although being always present, is also in permanent change,
in a movement that constantly allows for radical transformation.
The EFL classroom can thus raise students’ perception of their role in the transformation of society, once it
might provide them with a space where they are able to challenge their own views, to question where different
perspectives (including those allegedly present in the texts) come from and where they lead to.
By questioning their assumptions and those perceived in the texts, and in doing so also broadening their views,
we claim students will be able to see themselves as critical subjects, capable of acting upon the world.
[…]
We believe that there is nothing wrong with using the mother tongue in the foreign language classroom, since
strictly speaking, the mother tongue is also foreign - it’s not “mine”, but “my mother’s”: it was therefore foreign
as I first learned it and while I was learning to use its interpretive procedures. When using critical literacy in the
teaching of foreign languages we assume that a great part of the discussions proposed in the FL class may
happen in the mother tongue. Such discussions will bring meaning to the classroom, moving away from the
notion that only simple ideas can be dealt with in the FL lesson because of the students’ lack of proficiency to
produce deeper meanings and thoughts in the FL. Since the stress involved in trying to understand a foreign
language is eased, students will be able to bring their “real” world to their English lessons and, by so doing,
discussions in the mother tongue will help students learn English as a social practice of meaning-making.

perspective, then we also learn that such different ways to interpret reality are legitimized and valued according
to socially and historically constructed criteria that can be collectively reproduced and accepted or questioned
and changed. Hence our view of the EFL classroom, at least in Brazil, as an ideal space for the development
of citizenship: the EFL classrooms can adopt a critical discursive view of reality that helps students see claims
to truth as arbitrary, and power as a transitory force which, although being always present, is also in permanent
change, in a movement that constantly allows for radical transformation. The EFL classroom can thus raise
students’ perception of their role in the transformation of society, once it might provide them with a space where
they are able to challenge their own views, to question where different perspectives (including those allegedly
present in the texts) come from and where they lead to. By questioning their assumptions and those perceived
in the texts, and in doing so also broadening their views, we claim students will be able to see themselves as
critical subjects, capable of acting upon the world.

We believe that there is nothing wrong with using the mother tongue in the foreign language classroom, since
strictly speaking, the mother tongue is also foreign - it’s not “mine”, but “my mother’s”: it was therefore foreign
as I first learned it and while I was learning to use its interpretive procedures. When using critical literacy in the
teaching of foreign languages we assume that a great part of the discussions proposed in the FL class may
happen in the mother tongue. Such discussions will bring meaning to the classroom, moving away from the
notion that only simple ideas can be dealt with in the FL lesson because of the students’ lack of proficiency to
produce deeper meanings and thoughts in the FL. Since the stress involved in trying to understand a foreign
language is eased, students will be able to bring their “real” world to their English lessons and, by so doing,
discussions in the mother tongue will help students learn English as a social practice of meaning-making.

What to Know About the Controversy Surrounding the Movie Green Book
Depending on who you ask, Green Book is either the pinnacle of movie magic or a whitewashing sham.
The film, which took home the prize for Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards, as well as honors for Maher-
shala Ali as Best Supporting Actor and Nick Vallelonga, Brian Currie and Peter Farrelly for Best Original Scre-
enplay, depicts the burgeoning friendship between a black classical pianist and his Italian- American driver as
they travel the 1960s segregated South on a concert tour. But while Green Book was an awards frontrunner
all season, its road to Oscar night was riddled with missteps and controversies over its authenticity and racial
politics.
Green Book is about the relationship between two real-life people: Donald Shirley and Tony “Lip” Vallelonga.
Shirley was born in 1927 and grew up in a well-off black family in Florida, where he emerged as a classical
piano prodigy: he possessed virtuosic technique and a firm grasp of both classical and pop repertoire. He went
on to perform regularly at Carnegie Hall— right below his regal apartment—and work with many prestigious
orchestras, like the Chicago Symphony and the New York Philharmonic. But at a time when prominent black
classical musicians were few and far between due to racist power structures, he never secured a spot in the
upper echelons of the classical world. (African Americans still only make up 1.8 percent of musicians playing
in orchestras nationwide, according to a recent study.)
Vallelonga was born in 1930 to working-class Italian parents and grew up in the Bronx. As an adult he worked
as a bouncer, a maître d’ and a chauffeur, and he was hired in 1962 to drive Shirley on a concert tour through
the Jim Crow South. The mismatched pair spent one and a half years together on the road — though it’s con-
densed to just a couple of months in the film — wriggling out of perilous situations and learning about each
other’s worlds. Vallelonga would later become an actor and land a recurring role on The Sopranos.
In the 1980s, Vallelonga’s son, Nick, approached his father and Shirley about making a movie about their
friendship. For reasons that are now contested, Shirley rebuffed these requests at the time. […]

Throughout the last 15 years our society has undergone two major changes: Firstly, there has been a steady
rise of cultural and linguistic diversity, due to migration, multiculturalism and global economic integration; se-
condly, there has been the rapid development of technological devices and the world-wide expansion of new
communications media. These changes directly affect the lives of our pupils at home and at school and thus
have an important impact on curricular development, teaching objectives, contents and methodologies – star-
ting as early as in primary school.
[…]
While traditionally being literate solely referred to the ability to read and write in a standardized form of one lan-
guage, literate practices today incorporate multimodal, critical, cultural, and media competencies next to tra-
ditional-functional language skills, like reading, writing, speaking, mediating, and listening in many languages.
One major aspect in this context is the changing nature of texts that has developed from advances in tech-
nology. Language learners today need to be able to cope with different kinds of texts, including multimodal,
interactive, linear, and nonlinear texts, texts in different languages, texts with several possible meanings, texts
being delivered on paper, screens, or live, and texts that comprise one or more semiotic system.
In order to prepare students to actively engage in a socially diverse, globalized, and technological world, te-
achers need to find new forms of teaching and learning and provide opportunities for their pupils to explore,
learn about, and critically engage with a broad variety of texts and differing literate practices. Still, the question
remains open as to how these principles and objectives of a multiliteracies pedagogy translate into examples
of good practice in school settings.

(D) All in all;
(E) After all.
It’s easy to equate brains and computers – they’re both thinking machines, after all. But the comparison doesn’t
really stand up to closer inspection, as Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett reveals.
People often describe the brain as a computer, as if neurons are like hardware and the mind is software. But
this metaphor is deeply flawed.
A computer is built from static parts, whereas your brain constantly rewires itself as you age and learn. A com-
puter stores information in files that are retrieved exactly, but brains don’t store information in any literal sense.
Your memory is a constant construction of electrical pulses and swirling chemicals, and the same remembran-
ce can be reassembled in different ways at different times.
Brains also do something critical that computers today can’t. A computer can be trained with thousands of
photographs to recognise a dandelion as a plant with green leaves and yellow petals. You, however, can look
at a dandelion and understand that in different situations it belongs to different categories. A dandelion in your
vegetable garden is a weed, but in a bouquet from your child it’s a delightful flower. A dandelion in a salad is
food, but people also consume dandelions as herbal medicine.
In other words, your brain effortlessly categorises objects by their function, not just their physical form. Some
scientists believe that this incredible ability of the brain, called ad hoc category construction, may be funda-
mental to the way brains work.
Also, unlike a computer, your brain isn’t a bunch of parts in an empty case. Your brain inhabits a body, a com-
plex web of systems that include over 600 muscles in motion, internal organs, a heart that pumps 7,500 litres
of blood per day, and dozens of hormones and other chemicals, all of which must be coordinated, continually,
to digest food, excrete waste, provide energy and fight illness.[…]
If we want a computer that thinks, feels, sees or acts like us, it must regulate a body – or something like a body
– with a complex collection of systems that it must keep in balance to continue operating, and with sensations
to keep that regulation in check. Today’s computers don’t work this way, but perhaps some engineers can
come up with something that’s enough like a body to provide this necessary ingredient.
For now, ‘brain as computer’ remains just a metaphor. Metaphors can be wonderful for explaining complex
topics in simple terms, but they fail when people treat the metaphor as an explanation. Metaphors provide the
illusion of knowledge.

In 2020, even while economies bent under the weight of Covid-19 lockdowns, renewable sources of energy
such as wind and solar PV continued to grow rapidly, and electric vehicles set new sales records. The new
energy economy will be more electrified, efficient, interconnected and clean. Its emergence is the product of a
virtuous circle of policy action and technology innovation, and its momentum is now sustained by lower costs.
In most markets, solar PV or wind now represents the cheapest available source of new electricity generation.
Clean energy technology is becoming a major new area for investment and employment – and a dynamic are-
na for international collaboration and competition.
At the moment, however, every data point showing the speed of change in energy can be countered by another
showing the stubbornness of the status quo. The rapid but uneven economic recovery from last year’s Covi-
d-induced recession is putting major strains on parts of today’s energy system, sparking sharp price rises in
natural gas, coal and electricity markets. For all the advances being made by renewables and electric mobility,
2021 is seeing a large rebound in coal and oil use. Largely for this reason, it is also seeing the second-largest
annual increase in CO2 emissions in history. Public spending on sustainable energy in economic recovery pa-
ckages has only mobilised around one-third of the investment required to jolt the energy system onto a new set
of rails, with the largest shortfall in developing economies that continue to face a pressing public health crisis.
Progress towards universal energy access has stalled, especially in sub-Saharan Africa.
The direction of travel is a long way from alignment with the IEA’s landmark Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Sce-
nario (NZE), published in May 2021, which charts a narrow but achievable roadmap to a 1.5C stabilisation in
rising global temperatures and the achievement of other energy-related sustainable development goals.
Pressures on the energy system are not going to relent in the coming decades. The energy sector is respon-
sible for almost three-quarters of the emissions that have already pushed global average temperatures 1.1C
higher since the pre-industrial age, with visible impacts on weather and climate extremes. The energy sector
has to be at the heart of the solution to climate change.
At the same time, modern energy is inseparable from the livelihoods and aspirations of a global population that
is set to grow by some 2 billion people to 2050, with rising incomes pushing up demand for energy services,
and many developing economies navigating what has historically been an energy -- and emissions-intensive
period of urbanisation and industrialisation. Today’s energy system is not capable of meeting these challenges;
a low emissions revolution is long overdue.

TEXT I
Police officers’ ability to recognize and locate individuals with a history of committing crime is vital to their work.
In fact, it is so important that officers believe possessing it is fundamental to the craft of effective street policing,
crime prevention and investigation. However, with the total police workforce falling by almost 20 percent since
2010 and recorded crime rising, police forces are turning to new technological solutions to help enhance their
capability and capacity to monitor and track individuals about whom they have concerns.
One such technology is Automated Facial Recognition (known as AFR). This works by analyzing key facial
features, generating a mathematical representation of them, and then comparing them against known faces in
a database, to determine possible matches. While a number of UK and international police forces have been
enthusiastically exploring the potential of AFR, some groups have spoken about its legal and ethical status.
They are concerned that the technology significantly extends the reach and depth of surveillance by the state.
Until now, however, there has been no robust evidence about what AFR systems can and cannot deliver for
policing. Although AFR has become increasingly familiar to the public through its use at airports to help mana-
ge passport checks, the environment in such settings is quite controlled. Applying similar procedures to street
policing is far more complex. Individuals on the street will be moving and may not look directly towards the ca-
mera. Levels of lighting change, too, and the system will have to cope with the vagaries of the British weather.
[…]
As with all innovative policing technologies there are important legal and ethical concerns and issues that still
need to be considered. But in order for these to be meaningfully debated and assessed by citizens, regulators
and law-makers, we need a detailed understanding of precisely what the technology can realistically accom-
plish. Sound evidence, rather than references to science fiction technology --- as seen in films such as Minority
Report --- is essential.
With this in mind, one of our conclusions is that in terms of describing how AFR is being applied in policing
currently, it is more accurate to think of it as “assisted facial recognition,” as opposed to a fully automated sys-
tem. Unlike border control functions -- where the facial recognition is more of an automated system -- when
supporting street policing, the algorithm is not deciding whether there is a match between a person and what is
stored in the database. Rather, the system makes suggestions to a police operator about possible similarities.
It is then down to the operator to confirm or refute them.

The climate crisis is still raging. A year ago, news headlines were dominated by the climate youth movement
and a sense of urgency. But COVID-19 has displaced that interest and awareness. In fact, the causes of both
crises share commonalities, and their effects are converging. The climate emergency and COVID-19, a zoo-
notic disease, are both borne of human activity that has led to environmental degradation. Neither the climate
emergency nor a zoonotic pandemic were unexpected. Both have led to the preventable loss of lives through
actions that are delayed, insufficient, or mistaken. However, aligning responses presents an opportunity to
improve public health, create a sustainable economic future, and better protect the planet’s remaining natural
resources and biodiversity.
That health and climate change are interwoven is widely accepted, with extensive evidence of their interac-
tions. For the past 5 years, the Lancet Countdown on Health and Climate Change has monitored and reported
more than 40 global indicators that measure the impact of our changing climate on health. The newly published
2020 report includes novel indicators on heat-related mortality, migration and population displacement, urban
green spaces, low-carbon diets, and the economic costs of labour capacity loss due to extreme heat. The
breadth of the indicators has deepened scientific understanding of how climate affects health and puts stress
on health systems.
[…]
Curbing the drivers of climate change will help to suppress the emergence and re-emergence of zoonotic
diseases that are made more likely by intensive farming, international trade of exotic animals, and increased
human encroachment into wildlife habitats, which in turn increase the likelihood of contact between people and
zoonotic disease. Increased international travel and urbanisation leading to higher population density encou-
rage the rapid spread of zoonoses once they spill over into the human population. These factors also have an
important role in climate change as environmental determinants of health.
Both COVID-19 and the climate crisis have exposed the fact that the poorest and most marginalised people
in society, such as migrants and refugee populations, are always the most vulnerable to shocks. With regard
to climate change, those most impacted by extremes have usually contributed the least to the root causes of
the crisis. This year’s Countdown report finds that no country is immune to avoidable loss of lives arising from
widening inequalities, with every indicator in the report following a worsening trend.
Climate has slipped from the top of the global agenda because of political indifference and the need to deal
with the immediacies of COVID-19. 5 years on from the Paris Agreement, seizing the opportunity to refocus
interests on sustainability offers the cobenefits of protecting our future health, the environment, and our pla-
netary systems. As governments embark on economic recovery plans in the wake of COVID-19, concerns for
climate change and equity are rightly focused on a green recovery. A global rapid transition to clean energy
sources is needed, ending the stranglehold of fossil fuels. Decisions being made now must tackle both crises
together to ensure the most effective response to each.

Curbing the drivers of climate change will help to suppress the emergence and re-emergence of zoonotic
diseases that are made more likely by intensive farming, international trade of exotic animals, and increased
human encroachment into wildlife habitats, which in turn increase the likelihood of contact between people and
zoonotic disease. Increased international travel and urbanisation leading to higher population density encou-
rage the rapid spread of zoonoses once they spill over into the human population. These factors also have an
important role in climate change as environmental determinants of health.
Both COVID-19 and the climate crisis have exposed the fact that the poorest and most marginalised people
in society, such as migrants and refugee populations, are always the most vulnerable to shocks. With regard
to climate change, those most impacted by extremes have usually contributed the least to the root causes of
the crisis. This year’s Countdown report finds that no country is immune to avoidable loss of lives arising from
widening inequalities, with every indicator in the report following a worsening trend.
Climate has slipped from the top of the global agenda because of political indifference and the need to deal

with the immediacies of COVID-19. 5 years on from the Paris Agreement, seizing the opportunity to refocus
interests on sustainability offers the cobenefits of protecting our future health, the environment, and our plane-
tary systems.
As governments embark on economic recovery plans in the wake of COVID-19, concerns for climate change
and equity are rightly focused on a green recovery. A global rapid transition to clean energy sources is needed,
ending the stranglehold of fossil fuels. Decisions being made now must tackle both crises together to ensure
the most effective response to each.
The text concludes that climate changes and health issues should be treated
(A) slowly.
(B) jointly.
(C) tactfully.
(D) discreetly.
(E) individually.

Telehealth Is The Future But May Also Be Healthcare Security’s Achilles’ Heel
Everything changed overnight for telehealth at the onset of Covid-19. We went from a small footprint to telehe-
alth becoming one of the most common ways Americans access care. According to the Department of Health
and Human Services, nearly half of Medicare primary care visits were telehealth visits in April 2020, compared
to 0.1% in February. Waiting weeks to months for a 15-minute physician exam is no longer acceptable for
many when you can just set up a quick telehealth conference. However, with widespread healthcare breaches
making news, such as the recent suspected ransomware hack on United Health Services, security executives
should be on guard because the rise of telehealth has provided new entry points for hackers to exploit.

We believe that a sense of active citizenship needs to be developed and schools have an important role in the
process. If we agree that language is discourse, and that it is in discourse that we construct our meanings,
then we may perceive the foreign language classrooms in our schools as an ideal space for discussing the
procedures for ascribing meanings to the world. In a foreign language we learn different interpretive proce-
dures, different ways to understand the world. If our foreign language teaching happens in a critical literacy
perspective, then we also learn that such different ways to interpret reality are legitimized and valued according
to socially and historically constructed criteria that can be collectively reproduced and accepted or questioned
and changed. Hence our view of the EFL classroom, at least in Brazil, as an ideal space for the development
of citizenship: the EFL classrooms can adopt a critical discursive view of reality that helps students see claims
to truth as arbitrary, and power as a transitory force which, although being always present, is also in permanent
change, in a movement that constantly allows for radical transformation. The EFL classroom can thus raise
40
1723219 E-book gerado especialmente para DANYLLO JACKSON DE SOUZA AMANCIO
students’ perception of their role in the transformation of society, once it might provide them with a space where
they are able to challenge their own views, to question where different perspectives (including those allegedly
present in the texts) come from and where they lead to. By questioning their assumptions and those perceived
in the texts, and in doing so also broadening their views, we claim students will be able to see themselves as
critical subjects, capable of acting upon the world.
[…]
We believe that there is nothing wrong with using the mother tongue in the foreign language classroom, since
strictly speaking, the mother tongue is also foreign - it’s not “mine”, but “my mother’s”: it was therefore foreign
as I first learned it and while I was learning to use its interpretive procedures. When using critical literacy in the
teaching of foreign languages we assume that a great part of the discussions proposed in the FL class may
happen in the mother tongue. Such discussions will bring meaning to the classroom, moving away from the
notion that only simple ideas can be dealt with in the FL lesson because of the students’ lack of proficiency to
produce deeper meanings and thoughts in the FL. Since the stress involved in trying to understand a foreign
language is eased, students will be able to bring their “real” world to their English lessons and, by so doing,
discussions in the mother tongue will help students learn English as a social practice of meaning-making.

What to Know About the Controversy Surrounding the Movie Green Book
Depending on who you ask, Green Book is either the pinnacle of movie magic or a whitewashing sham.
The film, which took home the prize for Best Picture at the 91st Academy Awards, as well as honors for Maher-
shala Ali as Best Supporting Actor and Nick Vallelonga, Brian Currie and Peter Farrelly for Best Original Scre-
enplay, depicts the burgeoning friendship between a black classical pianist and his Italian- American driver as
they travel the 1960s segregated South on a concert tour. But while Green Book was an awards frontrunner
all season, its road to Oscar night was riddled with missteps and controversies over its authenticity and racial
politics.
Green Book is about the relationship between two real-life people: Donald Shirley and Tony “Lip” Vallelonga.
Shirley was born in 1927 and grew up in a well-off black family in Florida, where he emerged as a classical
piano prodigy: he possessed virtuosic technique and a firm grasp of both classical and pop repertoire. He went
on to perform regularly at Carnegie Hall— right below his regal apartment—and work with many prestigious
orchestras, like the Chicago Symphony and the New York Philharmonic. But at a time when prominent black
classical musicians were few and far between due to racist power structures, he never secured a spot in the
upper echelons of the classical world. (African Americans still only make up 1.8 percent of musicians playing
in orchestras nationwide, according to a recent study.)
Vallelonga was born in 1930 to working-class Italian parents and grew up in the Bronx. As an adult he worked
as a bouncer, a maître d’ and a chauffeur, and he was hired in 1962 to drive Shirley on a concert tour through
the Jim Crow South. The mismatched pair spent one and a half years together on the road — though it’s con-
densed to just a couple of months in the film — wriggling out of perilous situations and learning about each
other’s worlds. Vallelonga would later become an actor and land a recurring role on The Sopranos.
In the 1980s, Vallelonga’s son, Nick, approached his father and Shirley about making a movie about their
friendship. For reasons that are now contested, Shirley rebuffed these requests at the time. […]
The verb in “Shirley rebuffed these requests at the time” can be replaced by
(A) reconsidered.
(B) reaffirmed.
(C) received.
(D) recalled.
(E) rejected.

Throughout the last 15 years our society has undergone two major changes: Firstly, there has been a steady
rise of cultural and linguistic diversity, due to migration, multiculturalism and global economic integration; se-
condly, there has been the rapid development of technological devices and the world-wide expansion of new
communications media. These changes directly affect the lives of our pupils at home and at school and thus
have an important impact on curricular development, teaching objectives, contents and methodologies – star-
ting as early as in primary school.
[…]
While traditionally being literate solely referred to the ability to read and write in a standardized form of one lan-
guage, literate practices today incorporate multimodal, critical, cultural, and media competencies next to tra-
ditional-functional language skills, like reading, writing, speaking, mediating, and listening in many languages.
One major aspect in this context is the changing nature of texts that has developed from advances in tech-
nology. Language learners today need to be able to cope with different kinds of texts, including multimodal,
interactive, linear, and nonlinear texts, texts in different languages, texts with several possible meanings, texts
being delivered on paper, screens, or live, and texts that comprise one or more semiotic system.
In order to prepare students to actively engage in a socially diverse, globalized, and technological world, te-
achers need to find new forms of teaching and learning and provide opportunities for their pupils to explore,
learn about, and critically engage with a broad variety of texts and differing literate practices. Still, the question
remains open as to how these principles and objectives of a multiliteracies pedagogy translate into examples
of good practice in school settings.
