TÓPICO - IDEIA CONTEXTUAL ou INFORMAÇÃO DENTRO DO TEXTO :
For many parents, helping children develop healthy eating habits is a struggle.
With the busy pace of many families' lives and with more women working full
time, even health-conscious parents are finding it easy to tolerate less than
desirable eating habits.
2
"A lot of parents don't want to struggle with the issues so they give up, letting kids
make their own choices," says Jane Rees, director of nutrition service/education
in adolescent medicine and lecturer in pediatrics at the University of Washington
schools of Medicine and Public Health. "But children's judgment is less mature
and they still depend on parents to guide them."
3
So, it is best to start training children about foods as soon as they can talk since
they are most influenced by their families during the preschool years.
Additionally, research has shown that heart and blood vessel disease can begin
very early and that hardening of the arteries (arteriosclerosis or atherosclerosis)
can be associated with a high-fat diet.
4
Although it's a myth that children become hyperactive by eating too much sugar,
sugary food is still bad for oral health, can be stored as fat, and aggravates
diabetes, says Rees. However, completely denying children sugar will only make
it more tempting. As a strategy to motivate children to eat well and develop new
habits, Rees suggests activities __________ involving young children in the food
preparation process, teaching them how to set the table, letting them choose
some fruits and vegetables of their preference. She also adds that developing
children's attitude toward food should be similar to teaching them how to handle
money. If children are properly prepared, they are more likely to make healthy
food choices once they enter school. They will probably experiment some, but
they will have a preference for fresh foods like fruits and vegetables instead of
foods like French fries, for example, says Rees.

TEXTO 2:
Choose the CORRECT alternative to answer questions 19 to
22, according to TEXT 02.
SUSTAINABLE ENERGY
1
Several factors go into making energy sustainable. The first is whether or not the
current use of the energy is something which could potentially persist into the
future, which leads many forms of renewable energy to qualify as sustainable.
People can generate energy from windmills, waves, and the Sun without running
out of energy and resources, making these methods sustainable for use by future
generations. By contrast, fossil fuels are not treated as sustainable because the
Earth's supplies of crude oil will eventually peter out.
2
Another consideration is energy efficiency. Some forms of renewable energy, for
example, are sustainable in one sense, but researchers have yet to achieve a
high level of energy efficiency, meaning that almost as much energy goes into
the production of energy from these sources as the sources themselves
generate. Energy efficiency can also be used to describe the technologies which
use energy, such as homes, cars, and businesses. Increased efficiency in the
way energy is used makes sustainable energy stretch further.
3
Many people also feel that environmental impact is another facet
of sustainable energy, which is why sources like nuclear power are often not
treated as sustainable. Although it meets the demands of renewability and
energy efficiency, nuclear power can have a negative impact on the environment.
Likewise, some of the methods used to produce solar panels, wind turbines, and
other technology to convert renewable sources into energy are polluting, leading
to concerns that such technology merely passes the pollution, making it
unsustainable.
