PROVA DE INGLÊS
PART 1: READING COMPREHENSION
Based on the text below, answer questions 21, 22 and 23.
Organizing Intelligence for Counterinsurgency
EFFECTIVE, ACCURATE, AND TIMELY intelligence is essential to conducting any form

of warfare, including counterinsurgency operations, because the ultimate success or failure
of the mission depends on the effectiveness of the intelligence effort. The function of
intelligence in counterinsurgency is to facilitate an understanding of the populace, the host
nation, the operational environment, and the insurgents so that commanders may address
the issues driving the insurgency.
Insurgencies, however, are notoriously difficult to evaluate. The organization of the
standard military intelligence system, developed for major theater warfare rather than
counterinsurgency, compounds the difficulty. Intelligence systems and personnel must
adapt to the challenges of a counterinsurgency environment to provide commanders the
intelligence they require. This is a "best practice" in counterinsurgency, without which
counterinsurgency efforts will likely fail.

little pieces of themselves that every crew member leaves behind, be it their hopes,
fears, or dreams. I've left part of my soul on each of the ships that I've served on, but
have also taken some of their personalities with me, so I think it's a good trade.

CLIMATE CHANGE WILL DESTROY US
Climate change over the next 20 years could result in a global catastrophe costing
millions of lives in wars and natural disasters.
A secret report, suppressed by US defense chiefs and obtained by The Observer,
warns that major European cities will be sunk beneath rising seas as Britain is plunged
into a 'Siberian' climate by 2020. Nuclear conflict, mega-droughts, famine and widespread
rioting will erupt across the world.
The document predicts that abrupt climate change could bring the planet to the edge
of anarchy as countries develop a nuclear threat to defend and secure dwindling food,
water and energy supplies. The threat to global stability vastly eclipses that of terrorism,
say the few experts privy to its contents.
'Disruption and conflict will be endemic features of life,' concludes the Pentagon
analysis. 'Once again, warfare would define human life.'

GATES HAILS SOLDIER SNAPPED IN PINK BOXER SHORTS
Defense Secretary Robert Gates on Thursday praised an Army soldier in eastern

Afghanistan who drew media attention this month after rushing to defend his post from
attack while wearing pink boxer shorts and flip-flops, Reuters reported. Gates said in
prepared remarks that he wants to meet the soldier and shake his hand the next time he
visits Afghanistan.
"Any soldier who goes into battle against the Taliban in pink boxers and flip-flops
has a special kind of courage, 11 Gates said in a speech to be delivered in New York. "I
can only wonder about the impact on the Taliban. Just imagine seeing that: a guy in pink
boxers and flip-flops has you in his cross-hairs. What an incredible innovation in
psychological warfare," he said.
Army Specialist Zachary Boyd, 19, of Fort Worth, Texas, rushed from hi sleeping
quarters on May 11 to join fellow platoon members at a base in Afghanistan's Kunar
Province after the unit came under fire from Taliban positions. A news photographer was
on hand to record the image of Boyd standing at a makeshift rampart in helmet, body
armor, red T-shirt and boxers emblazoned with the message: "I love NY". When the
image wound up on the front page of the New York Times, Boyd told his parents he might
lose his job if President Obama saw him out of uniform.

REAL BLUE SKY RESEARCH
Just where in the world is the bluest sky? Expedia wanted to know for its "Blue Sky
Explorer" project. They asked NPL to develop a blue sky standard and some cheap
equipment to measure it. Their solution was to use cheap light-emitting diodes as the light
standard, rather than the typical expensive noble gas lamps, and the belt-and-braces
device was calibrated against an international "colourimetry" standard.
The result? Rio de Janeiro came out on top, followed by the Bay of Islands in New
Zealand and Uluru in Australia. Unsurprisingly the UK did not figure in strongly in the top
10, but Castell Dinas Bran in Wales came in at number nine.

PROVA DE INGLÊS
Inside The U.S. Navy's Leadership School
The top level of Navy leaders hip is its admirals. There are 238 of them. They have
responsibility for more than 390,000 members of the Navy and control an annual budget of more
than $130 billion. They are the equivalent of a corporate C-suite. Of the more than 3,000
captains who serve in the Navy, roughly 38 barely 1% make the cut to admiral each year.
In 2001 the chief of naval operations the Navy's CEO asked retired Vice Admiral Phil
Quast, who had spent 38 years in the Navy , to establish the program that became the Executive
Learning Office. "Of 238 admiral positions, fewer than 40 are concerned with actual war
fighting," Quast notes. "The vast majority is doing jobs analogous to that of a CEO, CTO, CFO,
COO or other functional business areas. Our job is to help them develop the business acumen
they need to run the business of the Navy as excellent stewards of the public's money and its
trust."

BIOLOGICAL PASSPORT NABS CHEATING CYCLISTS
The contest between athletes who use performance-enhancing drugs and the authorities
trying to catch them is much like a race itself. Each time a new drug test comes out, athl etes
and their doctors figure out a way to outsmart it.
But a new "biological passport" that measures blood and body chemistry over tim e may
finally be putting a dent in sports doping.
Professional cycling is the first sport to embrace the relatively new test, and it's just
nabbed its biggest catch: an Italian cyclist, Franco Pelli zotti, who was one of the favorites to win
this year's Giro d'Italia. The Giro ct-Italia, a grueling three- week event secon d in size and

THE INTERNET AND GUTEMBERG
In our age, everything is the newest New Thing or the biggest Big Thing. Steve Case
of America Online already calls the new century "the Internet Century," and some
authorities whisper that the Internet rivals the importance of Gutenberg's invention of the
printing press in the 15th century.
We suffer from historical amnesia.
Suppose you were born in 1900. You wouldn't yet watch movies, let alone global
TV. Fewer than 10% of U.S. homes had phones, and fewer than 8% had electricity.
Antibiotics hadn't been discovered. As yet the Internet isn't in the same league with these
developments.
Each changed lifestyles and popular beliefs, The automobilesuburbanized
America and inaugurated mass travel. Antibiotics,vaccines and public-health advances
helped raise life expectancyfrom 46 in 1900 to 77 today. The explosion of
prosperity a
consequence of electricity, other technologies and modern managementshortened working
hours and expanded leisure. Movies and TV transformed popular culture. As a matter of
fact, the Internet is
too young for anyone to foretell its ultimate significance.

USING SENSORS TO PREDICT BREAKING GLASS
Ever been walking down the street in a major city and suddenly get the eerie feeling that
something is not quite right above you? Some of the buildings around you will be designed with
lots of glass. Huge plates of the stuff. What might happen if that glass shattered and started
falling all over you? This happens more often than you might think. And with large glass
fac;ades becoming part of modern building design, it 1 s becoming even more of a concern to
architects, builders and engineers.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute want to help by using sensors to sound the alarm
before the glass is already breaking and falling. Four sensors are situated on the edge of the
pane at a distance of one meter from each other. One sensor produces an ultrasound wave
that is registered by the others. If the signal remains constant, the pane is not defective. If it
changes, this indicates a fissure, which most often emanates from the edge of the pane and is
initially invisible. It is only as time goes by that it gets larger due to various factors, like
fluctuations in temperature. The information is relayed to the building control systems and an
alarm goes off.
The modules are also equipped to with light and temperature sensors that can instruct
the building control system to lower shadesto prevent the building from getting too hot.

MOVIES ON THE JOB
Yesterday I watched a movie in which Joan Allen's character had a job which seemed to consist
entirely of standing around while other people do the actual work of restoring historic artwork in old
buildings(the movie was "Hachiko: A Dog's Story"). This seemed like a nice, luc rative job -- she certainly
dressed well, and lived in an enormous, stately home with her music-professor husband -- and one that
left her plenty of energy and free time. And it got me thinking about the idea of work in the movies; how
so often jobs (which take up a huge amount of our waking time in real life) are treated by movies as a
dismissible fantasy thing, sometimes to unintentionally comic effect.
Ever notice how young women in the movies, who usually have some sort of underling office
job, live in adorably decorated apartments that an administrative assistant couldn't possibly afford -- and
are never shown doing anything at work other than taking personal calls andhaving lunch? Or the way
writers in the movies, like the hero of "Mar ley & Me" or Carrie Bradshaw in "Sex and the City," seem to
effortlessly make a fortune while doing very little actual writing? Or the way attractive female executives
(see Renee Zellweger in "New in Town," and quite possibly Sandra Bullock in the upcoming "The
Proposal") prance around on their high heels and tight skirts and do well, nothing? Or how people in
the movies routinely have the kind of careers, like Allen's in "Hachiko," that seem a tad difficult to pull
off in real life? I remember a Hilary Swank movie from a couple of years back in which she effortlessly
transitioned from real estate agent to…wait for it…shoe designer, and lived happily ever after.

BIG INCREASE IN DRUNKEN 10-YEAR-OLDS WHO NEED AN AMBULANCE
London Ambulance Service figures today reveal that the number of 10- and 11-year-olds
requiring medical treatment for alcohol abusehas more than doubled in the past two years.
The figures come as health groups called for restrictions on cheap alcohol after it was
revealed that youngsters could get drunk for half the price ofa bar of chocolate.
Campaigners called on the Government to tackle the "plague" of illness caused by cheap
alcoholic drinks after an investigation found that strong cider was available in city
supermarkets for aslittle as l0p a unit.
Former chief medical officer Sir Liam Donaldson has recommended that parents should
not let children under 15 drink alcohol. But many young people are consuming an average of
15 units a week, theequivalent of a pint of beer every day.
A report by Alcohol Concern and the Children's Society reveals that parents who drink to
excess might also be influencing their children. At least 2.6 million children in the UK now live
with parents drinking "hazardously".

A Shift from Nursing Homes to Managed Care at Home
Faced with soaring health care costs and shrinking Medicare and Medicaid financing,
nursing home operators are closing some facilities and embracing an emerging model of care
that allows many elderly patients to remain in their homes and still receive the medical and social
services available in institutions.
In the newer model, a team of doctors, social workers, physical and occupational
therapists and other specialists provide managed care for individual patients at home, at adult
day-care centers and in visits to specialists. Studies suggest that it can be less expensive than
traditional nursing homes while providingbetter medical outcomes.
The number of such programs has expanded rapidly, growing from 42 programs in
22 states in 2007 to 84 in 29 states today. In New York City, a program run by a division of Center
Light Health System, formerly known as the Beth Abraham Family of Health Services, has over
2,500 participants at 12 sites in the metropolitanarea.
"It used to be that if you needed some kind of long-term care, the only way you could
get that service was in a nursing home, with 24-hour nursing care," said Jason A. Helgerson,
the Medicaid director for New York State. "That meant we were institutionalizing service for
people, many of whom didn't need 24-hour nursing care. If a person can get a service like
home health care or Meals on Wheels, they can stay in an apartment and thrive in that
environment, and it's a lower cost to taxpayers."

Navy preps submarines for 1st female officers
HARTFORD, Conn. For Ensign Peggy LeGrand, the biggest concern about serving on a
submarine is not spending weeks at a time in tight quarters with an entirely male crew. What
worries her is the scrutiny that comes with breaking one of the last gender barriers in the military.
"I have a feeling more people will be focused on us. Our mistakes and successes will
be magnified more than they deserve", said LeGrand, a 25-year-old Naval Academy graduate
from Amarillo, Texas.
LeGrand is among a small group of female officers who are training at sites including
Groton, Connecticut, to join the elite submarine force beginning later this year. While the Navy
says it is not treating them any differently from their male counterparts
, officials have been working
to prepare the submarine crews - and the sailors' wives - for one of the most dramatic changes in
the 111-year history of the Navy's "silent service."
The change is a source of anxiety for others, including the wives of submariners , who
worry the close contact at sea could lead to sailors cheating.. The issue really has to do with
the creation of a relationship that becomes very close and then results in further relations ashore.
That is, of course, what bothers the wives. "They know the kind of relationships that happens
between the shipmates”, said retired Navy Rear Adm. W.J. Holland Jr., a former submarine
commander.
The initial class of 24 women will be divided among four submarines , where they will be
outnumbered by men by a ratio of roughly 1 to 25. The enlisted ranks, which make up about 90
percent of a sub's 160-sailor crew, are not open to women although the Navy is exploring
modifications to create separate bunks for men and women.
The female officers, many of them engineering graduates from Annapolis, are
accustomed to being in the minority, and so far they say they hardly feel like outsiders. The
nuclear power school that is part of their training, for example, has been open to women for
years because the Navy in 1994 reversed a ban on females serving on its surface ships, including
nuclear-powered vessels.
(Adapted from http://www.militarytimes .com)
25)Which is the best alternative considering some of thestatements are TRUE (T) and others are
FALSE (F)?
I-The female officers who will join the elite submarine forceare all engineering graduates from
Annapolis.
II-Peggy LeGrand is worried about being confined in tightquarters with an entirely
male crew.

Genetically Modified Foods, Pros and Cons.
Genetically modified foods (GMS) are becoming increasingly common in many countries. However,
before one opts for any of these foods, it is very important to know about their pros and cons.
There are a variety of reasons for developing GMs. For instance, occurrence some of foods are
genetically modified to prevent the allergies after consumption, while some are developed to improve
their shelf life.
Though the seeds of GMs are quite expensive, their cost of production is said to be lesser than that of
the traditional crops for these foods do have natural resistance towards damaging pests and insects. This
reduces the necessity of exposing crops to hazardous chemicals. It is also said that GMS grow faster.
Due to this, productivity increases, providing the population with more food. At times, GMS crops can be
grown at places with unfavorable. climatic condons whereas a normal crop can specific season or under
some favorable climatic conditions. grow only in The biggest threat caused by GMs is that they can have
harmful effects on the human body. It is believed that they can cause diseases which are immune to
antibiotics. Moreover, according to some experts, people who consume such foods have high chances of
developing cancer. Besides, not much is known about their long-term effects on human beings.
In many countries, manufacturers do not mention on the label that foods are genetically modified
because they think that this would affect their business. However, this is not a good practice as
consumers do not get the chance to decide whether they should really opt for these foods. Experts are of
the opinion that with the increase of genetically modified foods, developing countries would start
depending more on industrial countries because it is likely that the food production would be controlled by
them in the time to come.

27)Which is the best alternative considering some of thestatements are TRUE (T) and
others are FALSE (F)?
I-All types of GMs last longer than their traditionalcounterparts.

Exercising Body and Mind at the Same Time?New Device Lets You Read While You Run
Engineers from Purdue University have devised a new system that will facilitate a very specific
type of physical and mental multitasking - helping treadmill runners to read text on a display screen.
The system, called ReadingMate, compensates for constantly bobbing eyes so runners can
train for a marathon while reading their favorite novel.
"Not many people can run and read at the same time," said Ji Soo Yi, an assistant professor of
industrial engineering at Purdue University. "This is because the relative location of the eyes to the text
is vigorously changing, and our eyes try to constantly adjust to such changes, which is burdensome."
Instead of increasing the size of the displayed font, Yi and his colleagues decided to compensate
for a runner's head motion.
"You could increase the font size and have a large-screen monitor on the wall, but that's
impractical because you cannot have numerous big screen displays in an exercise room," Yi said.
According to a report on the system published recently in Human Factors: The Journal of the
Human Factors and Ergonomics Society, the engineers recruited 15 multitasking volunteers to perform a
"letter- counting" test while jogging on a treadmill and using ReadingMate. The participants were asked
to tally how many times the letter 'F' appeared in two lines of text nested in 10 lines of text that were
displayed on a computer monitor.
While performing the test, the participants wore goggles equippedwith infrared LEDs. An infrared
camera tracked the motion of the LEDs,essentially recording the movement of the runner's head. To
compensatefor the head motion, the displayed text was moved as the volunteersran along the treadmill
with their heads bobbing.
The researchers found those who used the ReadingMate system performed better at multi-
tasking their physical and mental assignments, particularly when it came to reading smaller font sizes
and smaller line-spaced text.
Besides aiding people with the novel task of reading while running, the researchers said their
system could be used to assist airline pilots or those working in heavy industry.
"Both may experience heavy shaking and turbulence while reading information from a display,"
Kwon said. "ReadingMate could stabilize the content in such cases."

Facebook deserted by millions of users in biggest markets
Facebook has lost millions of users per month in its biggest markets. In the last six months,
Facebook has lost nearly 9m monthly visitors in the US and 2m in the UK. Studies suggest that its
expansion in the US, UK and other major European countries has peaked. In the last month, the world's
largest social network has lost 6m US visitors, a 4% fall, according to analysis firm Social bakers. In the
UK, 1.4m fewer users visited in March, a fall of 4.5%. Users are also turning off in Canada, Spain,
France, Germany and Japan, where Facebook is extremely popular.
Alternative social networks have seen surges in popularity with younger people. Instagram, the
photo-sharing site, got 30m new users in the 18 months before Facebook bought the business. Path,
the mobile phone-based social network founded by former Facebook employee Dave Morin, which only
allows its users to have 150 friends, is gaining lm users a week.
Facebook is still growing fast in South America. Monthly visitorsin Brazil were up to 6% in the last
month to 70m, according to Socialbakers, whose information is used by Facebook advertisers. India has
seen a 4% rise to 64m - still only a fraction of the country's population, so there is room for more growth.
As Facebook itself has warned, the time spent on its pages from those sitting in front of personal
computers is decreasing fast because people now prefer to use their smartphones and tablets.
Although smartphone minutes have doubled in a year, to 69 a month, that growth may not compensate
for dwindling desktop usage.
Facebook will tell investors about its performance for the quarter. Wall Street expects revenues
of about $1.44bn, an increase from $1.06bn a year ago. Shareholders will want to know how fast the
number of mobile Facebook users is growing, and whether advertising revenues are increasing at the
same rate. Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg has created a series of new initiatives designed to
appeal to smartphone users. One initiative, Facebook Home, is software that can be downloaded onto
Android phones to feed news and photos from friends and advertising directly to the owner's locked
home screen.

Slash and burn

Brazil s rainforest is going up in smoke. Again.
As Brazil's skyscrapers and silos rose, it seemed the most impressive quality of this 21st-century
Latin American powerhouse was its ability to grow without trashing the environment. Just last year , Brasilia
was boasting about a steep decline in deforestation in the Amazon rainforest, a feat that President Dilma
Rousseff trumpeted as "impressive, the fruit of social change." What would she say now?
After nearly a decade of steady decline, forest cutting has spiked again in the world's largest
rainforest. The nonprofit Amazon watchdog organization, Imazon, released a study reporting that
deforestation at the hands of farmers and ranchers jumped 90 percent in the 12 months since April of
last year. And since burning always follows felling, another 88 million tons of carbon dioxide and other
gases hit the atmosphere-a 62 percent increase on the year.
For decades, Brazilians were told that ruin in the Amazon was the price of development. But
recent research has imploded that assumption. A paper published by the National Academy of
Sciences shows that continued deforestation threatens not just the trees but the progress and riches
their removal were thought to guarantee. The paper bolsters an old theory by Brazilian climate scientist
Eneas Salati, who argued that the Amazon actually produces half its own rainfall. The takeaway: remove
too much of the forests and the Amazon could dry out. And more than the jungle is at stake. Reduced
rainfall from forest cutting could dry up the water that powers hydroelectric dams, thus slashing Brazilian
power-generating capacity by 40 percent by midcentury. It could also rob the food larder, cutting
soybean productivity by 28 percent and beef production by 34 percent.
Brasilia quickly countered the environmental skeptics by saying that these are unofficial figures,
noting that the National Space Institute is still crunching the satellite data. The government is still
basking in last year's numbers: only 4,600 square kilometers of forests felled, a fraction of the 27,700
square kilometers lost in 2004. But the Rousseff administration would do well to heed the smoke signals.
Even Brasilia admits that Brazil's continued rise to glory turns on the country's ability to stay green.

PROVA DE INGLÊS
The War at Home: The Struggle for Veterans to Find Jobs
In today's tough and competitive job market, it can be challenging for any adult to land a decent
job. Though education can definitely improve outcomes, sometimes it's not just about the degree.
Experience can also play a major role in helping people find jobs. Yet in some cases, if you do not have
the right kind of experience, thismay be of little help. Just ask one of the many college-educated military
veterans who serve their country only to return to find a job market that will treat them as rookies.
Army veteran John Lee Dumas said he had zero anxieties about finding a job after graduating
college and had been told that his military experience would give him a leg up on other candidates. But
things did not turn out that way.
"I quickly found out that I was lumped together with recent college grads for entry-level positions,
and that an employee that had two years' experience at a job in a similar industry was considered way
more qualified than I was despite my four years as
an officer in the army", Dumas said.
When Dumas did find work, he said it was difficult to acclimate to the civilian office environment.
"I often found that my peers and above had a hard time dealing with my direct approach and attitude
about tackling problems head on, often asking for forgiveness rather than permission", he said.
One issue is that veterans are too modest when it comes to stating their accomplishments in the
military.
"For some reason, I've had veterans not tell me about their awards and honors, but it should all be
listed - from commander' s coins to medals of honor," Hurwitz said.
Navy veteran Tom Graves, who has a career in world force development helping companies
understand the benefits of hiring skilled and experienced military veterans, agreed.
(Adapted from http://www.onlinecollege.org)
21)Considering the text, which word can replace “ despite" in thisextract: "[…] despite my four
years of experience […]”
(A)Whatever.
(B)Moreover.
(C)Wherever.
(D)In spite of.
(E)However.
(A)The largest obstacle for veterans to find a job is theirprevious experience as

military officers.
(B)Important accomplishments as a military officer do notcount when applying for
a job as a civilian.
(C)It was difficult for John Lee Dumas to deal with civiliansbecause they never asked
for permission.
(D)Things did not turn out as John Lee Dumas expected becausehe had a leg up on
other candidates.
(E)Veterans should value their experiences as officers whenapplying for a job in the
civilian market.
23)Considering the text, what does the word "skilled" mean in thisextract?

How to Exercise While Sitting At Your Computer
Is your work stressing you out? Is your work making you fat? Of course, it is. If you are in a
relationship with your work like me (I hate the word "workaholic"), then maybe you are also dealing with
some relationship issues like stress and weight gain. Every person who has a desk job does not need
to indulge in a tub of ice-cream after a particularly stressful day at work to gain the pounds. In fact, the
downside of being a way too dedicated employee is that it will makeyou fat! The stress to perform plus
the inactivity of a desk job will definitely increase your waist size. What's more, you will become lethargic
once four hours of inactivity can seriously send your metabolism levels to an all-time low. If you think
that a 30 minute walk every day is enough cardio activity in a week to maintain your metabolism, you
are wrong! Yes, I was surprised too! The mathematics of this is that when you perform any cardio
activity, it elevates your metabolism rate for a span of time, but not the entire day. Because the rest of
the day you are sitting idle on your chair without much activity, the 30 minute walk is not enough, nor is
the 1-hour intense workout. What you need to do to keep yourself from pilling on the pounds is to keep
your metabolism rate high all day long. For that, you need to break the no physical activity routine from
9 to 5 by exercising while sitting at your desk!
Here are simple exercises that take 5 minutes of your day and prevent you from feeling stiff.
(A)Neck: To stretch your neck, slowly flex your head forward and backward, side to side and look
right and left. This can be donealmost any time to lessen tension and strain. Never roll your head
around your neck--this could cause damage to the joints of the neck.
(B)Shoulders: Roll your shoulders forward around 10 times, then backward. This helps release the
tension off your shoulders.
(C)Wrists: Roll your wrists regularly, around every hour or so. Roll the wrists 10 times clockwise,
then 10 times counterclockwise. This will help minimize the potential for getting carpal tunnel syndrome if
you spend a lot of time typing.
(D)Ankles: Roll your ankles regularly. As with your wrists, rollthe ankles in a clockwise motion
three times, then counterclockwise. This helps improve blood circulation, and prevents that tingling
feeling you can get when blood circulation is cut off, also known as "pins and needles".
(Adapted from http://www.buzzle.com and http://www.wikihow.com)
(A)Stress and weight gain cause relationship issues.

(B)A regular high rate of metabolism prevents weight gain.
(C)Exercising from 9 to 5 prevents putting on weight.
(D)Inactivity elevates metabolism all the time.
(E)Lethargy is a result of waist size increase.
(A)To relax your shoulders, roll them. Repeat the movement nomore than 10
times.
(B)Ankles and wrists should be exercised regularly, but morerepetitions are
recommended to relax the ankles.
(C)To minimize carpal tunnel syndrome you should spend a lotof time typing.
(D)"Pins and needles" sensation results from poor blood
circulation.
(E)Rolling your head is certain to result in problems in theneck region.
American Students Test Well in Problem Solving, but Trail ForeignCounterparts
Fifteen-year-olds in the United States scored above the average of those in the developed
world on exams assessing problem-solving skills, but they trailed several countries in Asia and Europe
as wellas Canada, according to international standardized tests results released on Tuesday.
The American students who took the problem-solving tests in 2012, the first time they were
administered, did better on these exams than on reading, math and science tests, suggesting that
students in the United States are better able to apply knowledge to real-life situations than perform
straightforward academic tasks.
Still, students who took the problem-solving tests in countries including Singapore, South Korea,
Japan, several provinces of China, Canada , Australia, Finland and Britain all outperformed American
students.
"The good news is that problem solving still remains a relatively strong suit for American
students," said Bob Wise, former governor of West Virginia and president of the Alliance for Excellent
Education, a national policy and advocacy group focused on improving high schools. "The challenge is
that a lot of other nations are now developing this and even moving ahead. So where we used to, in an
earlier era, dominate in what we called the deeper learning skills creative thinking, critical thinking and
the ability to solve problems - in terms of producing the workers that are increasingly needed in this
area, other nations are coming on strong and in some cases surpassing us”
The new problem-solving exams were administered to a subset of 15-year-olds in 28 countries
who sat for the Program for International Student Assessment, a set of tests every three years commonly
known as PISA and given by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, a Paris-
based group whose members include the world's wealthiest nations. Almost 1,275 American students
took the exams.
Critics of the rankings on international tests have tended to characterize the high performance of
Asian countries in particular as demonstrating the rote learning of facts and formulas. But the problem-
solving results showed that students in the highest-performing nations were also able to think flexibly.
Even on interactive tasks, the American students ' strength, all the Asian countries that
participated in this round of exams outperformed the United States.
"To understand how to navigate a complex problem and exercise abstract reasoning is actually a
very strong point for the Asian countries," said Francesco Avvisati, an analyst on the PISA team at
the O.E.C.D.

Based on the text below, answer question 29.
How New Words Are Created
Below we can find the description of five different processes that have led to the creation of new
words in the English language.
(I)______
Many of the new words added to the ever-growing lexicon of the
English language are just created out of the blue, and often have little or no etymological pedigree. A
good example is the word dog, etymologically unrelated to any other known word, which, in the late
Middle Ages, suddenly and mysteriously displaced the Old English word hound (or hund) which had
served for centuries.
(II) ______
Some words arise simply as shortened forms of longer words
(exam, gym, lab, bus, vet, phone and burger are some obvious and well- used examples). Perhaps less
obvious is the derivation of words like goodbye (a shortening of God-be-with-you) and hello (a
shortened form of the Old English for "whole be thou").
(III) ______
Like many languages, English allows the formation of words by
joining together shorter words (e.g. airport, seashore, fireplace, etc.). The concatenation of words in
English may even allow for different meanings depending on the order of combination (e.g.
houseboat/boathouse, casebook/bookcase, etc).
(IV) ______
The drift of word meanings over time often arises, often but not always due to catachresis . By some
estimates, over half of all words adopted into English from Latin have changed their meaning in some way
over time, often drastically. For example, smart originally meant sharp, cutting or painful; A more modern
example is the changing meaning of gay from merry to homosexual (and, in some circles in more recent
years, to stupid or bad).
(V) ______
New words may arise due to mishearings or misrenderings. According to the "Oxford English
Dictionary", there are at least 350 words in English dictionaries (most of them thankfully quite obscure)
that owe their existence purely to typos or other misrenderings (e.g. shamet"aced from the original
shame fast, penthouse from pentice, sweetheart from sweetard, buttonhole from button-hold, etc).
(Adapted from http://www.thehistoryofenglish.com/issues_new.html)
29)The following headings have been replaced by (I), removed from the text and(V).
(II), (III), (IV) and which presents them in the correct order. Choose the alternative
1-Change in the Meaning of Existing Words

2-Creation from Scratch

Discoveries of oil off Brazil's coast were cited as justifications for increasing Brazil's navy.
While the oil finds will almost certainly increase Brazil's future prosperity, the US sought to turn the
strategic dialogue in Brazil away from fantasies that another country -- potentially the United States --
would try to seize the oil fields to a productive discussion of energy security and the importance of
maintaining freedom of the seas. The April 2008 announcement of the reactivation of the US Fourth
Fleet caught Brazil by surprise and provoked much negative commentary. Even many Brazilians not
prone to accept the wild-eyed theories of U.S. intentions to invade the Amazon suspected that the
announcement, coming as it did on the heels of President Lula's announcement that Brazil had
discovered more oil off the Brazilian coast, could not have been a coincidence.

Life in the Navy - Frequently Asked Questions

Many of your questions about the Navy have been asked and answered before. See if you can find
your question in the list below. Or, to get the most complete picture of the Navy, locate your nearest
recruiter and set up a meeting.
(1)______
It depends. Normally ships will go to sea for 10 days to 2 weeks each month for training operations.
Extended operations away from home port can last up to 6 months, and ships deploy every 18-24
months. This varies depending on the mission and type of ship. Ships on 6-month deployments spend
time visiting ports throughout the world. If you are on a shore duty tour, you will likely spend no time at
sea during the course of the duty assignment (usually 2 to 3 years).
(II)______
There are plenty of activities available to sailors. in their off-duty time. Depending on the size of the
ship, you'll have areas for exercise, watching movies, playing cards, emailing friends, and purchasing
snacks and other items. Many ships also provide college classes.
(III)______
The tempo of operations will dictate actual length. While in home port or on shore duty, it is very similar
to that of civilian jobs. While out to sea, it is often longer because of the workload needed to keep the
ship, aircraft and other machinery working properly and efficiently.
(IV)______
Under normal circumstances, you will be eligible for a promotion from E-1 to E-2 in 9 months, from E-2
to E-3 in 9 months, and from E-3 to E-4 in 6 months. Advancements on the basis of merit can occur in
basic training to E-2 without waiting the 9 months. By referring friends who join the Navy, you can be
promoted even faster!
(V)______
Once you have completed basic training and any follow up schooling, you will probably move just once
to your first permanent duty station. Naturally, if you stay in the Navy past your first enlistment (or if you
request a specific deployment) you may have to move again.
22)The following headings have been removed from the text andreplaced by(I), (II),
(III), (IV) and (V). Number them toindicate the correct order and choose the corresponding
option.
( )What things are there for me to do on a

( )ship? How often will I have to live in another place?
( ) How long is the normal workday?
( )How much time will I spend at sea?What is the career plan like?

(B)(III)(I)(II)(IV)(V)
(C)(II)(I)(III)(V)(IV)
(D)(IV)(V)(II)(III)(I)
(D)(IV)(II)(III)(I)(V)
23)The words and expressions that can replace "picture", "locate" and "set up" in the
extract "[…] to get the most complete picture of the Navy, locate your nearest recruiter and set up a
meeting." while keeping the same meaning are
(A)photo/assign a location to/arrange.

(B)image/discover the place of/combine.
(C)photo/ascribe a location to/combine.
(D)notion/assign a location to/combine.
(E)idea/discover the place of/arrange.

trips:
1)Scan all your major documents. Scan your travel documents and email them to yourself
that way your documents won't go missing even if your bags do.
2)Get travel insurance. This is mainly for health costs if you get ill or injured while abroad.
Hospital costscan quickly get into the tens of thousands of dollars, evenfor a minor injury.
3)Get vaccinated. Visit your doctor before you leave to get all the relevant
vaccinations/immunizations for thedestinations you're visiting, and to learn what health
precautions you should follow.

(E)Before travelling, you must see the doctor and ask for acheck-up.
How to Become a USNA Midshipman
Posted by: Jacqui Murray ! December 8, 2010
There are lots of how-to books on getting in the Naval Academy, but they're
quite dry and impersonal. Mine - Building a Midshipman - is from the perspective of
a woman who did it (my daughter!) and how she accomplished such a lofty goal. It's
down-to-earth and should give confidence to any teen, male or female, considering a
military academy as their college of choice.
I wrote this because there was a need for a book like this. When my daughter
wanted a step-by-step on how to get into the Naval Academy, all she could find were
books that told her how hard it was, how selective they were, how very few could
achieve it. My daughter brushed the negativity off, but I wondered how many kids
were discouraged by thatapproach.
I decided to write a book (a) explaining how to achieve the goal, not why kids
couldn't; (b) showing how teens can solve the problems that stand in their way rather
than why they can't, and (c) sharing the many but predictable steps that will take a
motivated, committed applicant where they want to go rather than why they can't get
there.
That approach worked for my daughter and I had no doubt it would work for
others. From what I hear from readers,it's true. I hope you find it useful.

The Future of Libraries Has Little to Do with Books
On a Monday morning between Christmas and New Year's Eve in Paris, the line for modern
art museum Centre Georges Pompidou winds around the block. But the patrons waiting in the
cold aren't there to catch a glimpse of a Magritte-they're young locals queueing for access
through themuseum's back door to another attraction: the public library.
In a digital age that has left book publishers reeling, libraries in the world's major cities seem
poised for a comeback, though it's one that has very little to do with books. The Independent
Library Report published in December by the U.K.'s Department for Culture, Media, and Sport
found that libraries across the nation are reinventing themselves by increasingly becoming
"vibrant and attractive community hubs", focusing on the "need to create digital literacy, and in an
ideal world, digital fluency."
Taking into account the proliferation of freelancing, the gig economy, and remote working (also
known as 'technomadism'), the rise of library as community hub begins to make sense. Cities are
increasingly attracting location independent workers, and those workers need space and
amenities that expensive and unreliable coffee shops simplycannot provide enough of.
Furthermore, when one considers that the most vulnerable and underserved city dwellers are
also those who generally do not have access to the Internet, the need for a free and publicly
connected space becomes even clearer.
According to a 2013 Pew poll, 90 percent in the U.S.said their community would be negatively
impacted if theirlocal library closed. But if libraries are going to survivethe digital age, they need to
be more about helping patronsfilter vast quantities of digital information rather thanaccess to
analog materials. Good news came for U.S.libraries in November, when Federal Communications
Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler announced a 62 percentincrease in spending on high-speed
Internet for schools and public libraries. When it comes to this need for connectivity, Britain's
library report stated a "Wi-Fi connection should be delivered in a comfortable, retail standard
environment withthe usual amenities of coffee, sofas and etc." The reportsuggested that libraries
focus less on loaning physicalbooks and more on widening access via loaning of e-books, which
the report noted was up by 80 percent in Britain from 2013.
Also in 2013, the first bookless public library in the United States opened in San Antonio,
Texas. The city's BiblioTech offers an all-digital, cloud-based collection of more than 10,000 e-
books, plus e-readers available for checkout. Located in San Antonio's underserved South Side,
the BiblioTech provides an important digital hub in a city with a population that still struggles to
connect to wireless Internet. Last month saw the opening of Canada's Halifax Central Library,
designed by a world-leading Danish design firm. With its auditorium, meeting space for
entrepreneurs, multiple cafes, adult literacy classes and gaming facilities, actual books seemed
like an afterthought.

Additional Factors That Affect Sleep Comfort

By Richard A. Staehler, MD
The type of mattress one uses is not the only factor forpatients with pain and sleep
difficulty. Many other factorsneed to be considered that may affect sleep, including:
-medication side effects;
-irregular sleep patterns;
-caffeine/alcohol/tobacco use;
-sleep apnea;
-anxiety/stress.
If comfort is not the only thing making sleep difficult,it is advisable for the patient to
consult his or her familyphysician to discuss other possible causes and treatmentsfor
sleeplessness.
If anyone experiences significant or persistent back pain,there may be an underlying back
condition that has nothingto do with the mattress. It is always advisable for peoplewith back
pain to consult with a health care provider for athorough exam, diagnosis, and treatment
program.
As a reminder, sleep comfort is first and foremost amatter of personal preference. No
one should expect thatswitching mattresses or beds will cure their lower backpain, and
changes in the type of bed or mattress used shouldbe made solely for the sake of comfort.

Hard Lesson in Sleep for Teenagers
By Jane E. Brody October 20, 2014
Few Americans these days get the hours of sleep optimal for their age, but experts
agree that teenagers are more likely to fall short than anyone else.
Researchers report that the average adolescent needs eight and a half to nine and a
half hours of sleep each night. However, in a poll taken in 2006 by the National Sleep
Foundation, less than 20 percent reported getting that much rest on school nights. With
the profusion of personal electronics, the current percentage is believed to be even
worse. A study in Fairfax, Va., found that only 6 percent of children in the 10th grade and
only 3 percent in the 12th grade get the recommended amount of sleep. Two in three
teens were found to be severely sleep-deprived, losing two or more hours of sleep
every night. The causes can be biological, behavioral or environmental. The effect on
thewell-being of adolescents on their health and academic potential - can be profound.
Insufficient sleep in adolescence increases the risksof high blood pressure and heart
disease, Type 2 diabetes and obesity, said Dr. Owens, pediatric sleep specialist at
Children's National Health System in Washington. Sleeplessness is also linked to risk-
taking behavior, depression, suicidal ideation and car accidents. Insufficient sleep also
impairs judgment, decision-making skills and the ability to curb impulses, which are "in a
critical stage of development in adolescence," Dr. Owens said. With the current intense
concern about raising academic achievement, it is worth noting that a study by Kyla
Wahlstrom of 9,000 students in eight Minnesota public high schools showed that
starting school a half-hour later resulted in an hour's more sleep a night and an increase
inthe students' grade point averages and standardized test scores.
When children reach puberty, a shift in circadian rhythm makes it harder for them to
fall asleep early enoughto get the requisite number of hours and still make it toschool on
time. A teenager's sleep-wake cycle can shift as much as two hours, making it difficult to
fall asleep before 11 p.m. If school starts at 8 or 8:30, it is not possible to get enough
sleep. Based on biological sleep needs, a teenager who goes to sleep at 11 p.m. should
be getting up around 8 a.m.
Adding to the adolescent shift in circadian rhythm are myriad electronic distractions
that cut further into sleep time, like smartphones, iPods, computers and televisions. A
stream of text messages, tweets, and postings on Facebook and Instagram keep many
awake long into the night.
Parents should consider instituting an electronic curfew and perhaps even forbid
sleep-distracting devices in the bedroom, Dr. Owens said. Beyond the bedroom, many
teenagers lead overscheduled lives that can lead to shortnights.
Also at risk are many teenagers from low-income and minority families, where
overcrowding, excessive noise and safety concerns can make it difficult to get enough
restful sleep, the academy statement said. Trying to compensate for sleep deprivation
on weekends can further compromise an adolescent's sleep-wake cycle by inducing

permanent jet lag. Sleeping late on weekends shifts their internal clock, making it even
harder to get to sleep Sunday night and wakeup on time for school Monday morning.
