Questão 11:
The Ovambo people in Namibia traditionally build a house for their children, using
wooden poles standing closely together to form circular walls. However, as the region
where they live is running short of trees, this enterprising ethnic group is turning to a
more abundant building material: the empty beer bottles that litter the roadsides and
are cheaply available at local stores.
Questão 12:
Rio de Janeiro is Brazil’s heart, its cultural capital and emotional nerve-center
(...). It’s wise to remember that the romantic sparking lights that glimmer in the hillsides
illuminate the city’s notorious shanty towns. Crime, especially in the tourist-filled
Copacabana district, is common. Most visitors are easy targets, if only because they
usually lack a tan. Don’t wear expensive watches or jewelry and carry as little cash as
possible, especially when going to the beach. (...) The subway system (Metro) is clean,
fast and efficient, but only goes as far as Botafogo. It does not extend to Copacabana.
Buses are plentiful but are uncomfortable and can be dangerous. (...) Business visitors
should not be surprised when meetings start late or executives are informally dressed.
This relaxed attitude is counterbalanced by the “carioca’s” quickness and creativity.
“Cafezinhos” (literally little coffees), usually highly sugared, and mineral water are
staple of nearly every business meeting in this city. In meetings between men and
women (and between women), kisses on both cheeks are common. Men shake hands
enthusiastically. Cariocas are easy going and slow to take offence. (...)

The Brazilian Armed Forces is the unified military organization formed by the
Brazilian Army (including the Brazilian Army Aviation), the Brazilian Navy (including the
Brazilian Marine Corps and Brazilian Naval Aviation) and the Brazilian Air Force.
Brazil's armed forces are the third largest in the Americas, after the United States
and Colombia, and the largest in Latin America by the level of military equipment, with
approximately 318,480 active-duty troops and officers. They are expanding their presence
in the Amazon under the Northern Corridor (Calha Norte) program. In 1994, Brazilian
troops joined United Nations (UN) peacekeeping forces in five countries.
The Brazilian military, especially the army, is more involved in civic-action
programs, education, health care, and constructing roads, bridges, and railroads across
the nation. The 1988 Constitution preserves the external and internal roles of the Armed
Forces, but it places the military under presidential authority.
RIO DE JANEIRO, BRAZIL – Exactly one month after Brazil’s most deadly
mining disasters, firefighters and volunteers still search for at least 131 people still
missing under tons of mud left behind after a dam in the Feijão mining complex, owned
12
by Brazilian giant, Vale, gave way on January 25th. So far 179 corpses have been
retrieved and identified.
“The search starts at 5am, when the teams get up. At 6:30 am, we gather for
directions, a safety briefing and guidelines of what will be done throughout the day.
The teams are then taken into the field,” firefighter Lt. Col. Anderson Passos tells
journalists.
“At the end of the day, when the teams return, they give us feedback on how
the search went. We then hold a meeting to plan the next day and everything repeats
itself,” concluded the official.

2. DICAS
3º passo: Leia atentamente a primeira frase dos textos. Muitas vezes a resposta está
na interpretação da mesma. O texto normalmente segue se aprofundando de acordo
com essa frase introdutória.
Se a resposta não estiver logo no início, fiquem atentos as ‘palavras chaves’ no meio
do texto. Provavelmente já mencionada no enunciado, ou nas respostas. Por isso é
importante seguir o 1º e 2º passo.
Não identificando a resposta nem no início nem no meio, a resposta pode está no
fechamento junto com algum aspecto já mencionado ao longo do texto. Normalmente
a resposta não é algo isolado no fim do texto.
*Caso tenha identificado a resposta sem precisar ler nada do texto, faça ao menos
uma ‘leitura dinâmica’ para ter certeza que escolheu a opção certa.
1. Present simple:
Usamos o Simple Present para falar de coisas em geral, expressar que algo
acontece o tempo todo ou repetidamente.
*Lembre-se que dizemos He, She, IT com “S”. Não esqueça do “S”!
Ex: I work in a bank - He works in a bank
26
*Fazemos o negativo adicionando DON’T ou DOESN’T (para He, She, It) antes do
verbo.
Ex.: They don't work in a bank. / He doesn't work in a bank
2. Present Continuous:
Usamos o Present Continuous para falar sobre algo que está acontecendo no
momento da fala.
Ex.: David is driving to work.
3. Past simple:

uma outra ação no passado, ou que continuou até certo momento no passado.
28
Ex.: When I arrived at the airport, the plane had already gone away.
Quando eu cheguei ao aeroporto, o avião já tinha ido embora.
Podemos usar este tempo para dizer há quanto tempo algo estava acontecendo
antes que outra coisa acontecesse.
Ex.: Her room 's color is different. She has been painting it.
A cor da sala dela está diferente. Ela a tem pintado.
Afirmativa - You had been living He (She, It) had been living
