CEBRASPE – 2016 – TCE/SC – AUDITOR – LÍNGUA INGLESA – CONCURSO PÚBLICO – TRIBUNAL DE CONTAS DO ESTADO DE SANTA CATARINA – PROVA COM GABARITO.

Welcome back to another post!

➧ PROVA DE LÍNGUA INGLESA: CESPE-CEBRASPE-2016-TCE/SC-AUDITOR-29/05/2016.

➧ BANCA/ORGANIZADOR:

➧ PADRÃO/COMPOSIÇÃO DA PROVA: 06 Questões do tipo (C) ou (E).

➧ GABARITO:

01-E, 02-C, 03-C

04-E, 05-E, 06-E

➧ VOCABULÁRIO:

[to team up = "juntar-se"]

[state-of-the-art technologies = "tecnologia de ponta", "tecnologia de última geração", "tecnologia davançada" e não quer dizer que tenha um "toque artístico".] 

[a required component = "um componente necessário"]
[a longstanding matter = "uma questão de longa data"]
[an outdated issue (ênNáutêiré-Ríxiu) = "uma questão ultrapassada"]
[database management systems = "sistemas de gestão de banco de dados."]

[also known as (ÓlsôuNôun-éz) ➜ "também conhecido como..."]
*A pronúncia de "as" é (éz), não é (éssi).
[concurrency="simultaneidade"]
[Prefixo "Fore" transmite → IDEIA DE ANTECEDÊNCIA]

➦ "to realize" é sinônimo de "to perceive" (perceber).

➦ O verbo "to accomplish" é sinônimo de

➜ O verbo to perform (realizar).
➦"REALIZE não significa realizar".

➦"ACCOMPLISH significa  realizar".  

➧ TEXTO: Text CB3A1AAA

Like humans, computers can team up with their peers to achieve results that none of them could obtain alone; unlike humans, they can do many activities at once, and do all of them well. In spite of that, passé debates on this issue have implicitly assumed that computation is mostly sequential — proceeds along a single thread of control. Software developers should now realize that this assumption no longer holds, as we move to concurrent (also known as parallel) computation.

Concurrency is not a new subject, but for a long time interest in it remained confined to four application areas: operating systems, networking, implementation of database management systems, and high-speed scientific software. Although strategic and prestigious, these tasks involve only a small subset of the software development community. Things have changed. Concurrency is quickly becoming a required component of just about every type of application, including some that had traditionally been thought of as fundamentally sequential in nature.

This advancement gives particular urgency to the study and review of various forms of concurrency; the evolution of Computer Science requires software developers to make concurrency part of their mindset. And it is not simply the traditional concepts of multiprocessing and multiprogramming, the past few years have introduced state-of-the-art technologies, such as remote execution through the Net.

Judge the following items according to the text CB3A1AAA.

01. The author of the text claims that concurrent computation is an outdated issue.

02. Even some applications once seen as sequential are now demanding concurrent computation.

03. Software construction professionals must be acquainted with concurrency quickly.

04. In spite of being a longstanding matter, concurrent computation has been used just by professionals who implement database management systems.

In the text CB3A1AAA,

05. "state-of-the-art technologies" (R.25) are advanced technologies, developed with an artistic touch.

06. the verb "realize" (R.7) can be replaced by accomplish without any change in the meaning of the sentence.
