❑ TEXTO: 

Vidigal is Rio’s most foreigner-friendly slum, with guesthouses, coffee houses, restaurants and even a sushi-bar aimed at the tourist market. It is relatively small and picturesque, with spectacular views over the Atlantic, and an hour-long walking trail that winds from its upper limits to the top of the Dois Irmãos mountain. 

When pacified in 2012, Vidigal was already popular with artists, young Brazilians and foreigners. Scottish school librarian Graeme Boyd, 34, lived there for two six-month periods, in 2009 and 2011. “As long as foreigners respect the locals, make a contribution and use the business inside the favela, they will be welcomed,” he said. “People reacted to me as if I had lived there all my life”.

Sometimes you don’t have to read an article completely to get the necessary information. Often you can move your eyes quickly over the reading to find facts, names, dates, titles. For example, if you are looking for a date, you should move your eyes down the page looking for numbers. If you are looking for a person’s names, you should find capital letters. Punctuation is also a clue for finding specific information. Quotation marks (“), commas (,), parentheses ( ), and dashes (--) all separate special information. 

a) You always need to read the entire article when you are looking for information.

b) Occasionally you can get necessary information by skimming an article.

Alberto Santos Dumont (1873-1932) was born in Brazil and educated in Paris. He made his first balloon ascent in 1898 and, soon after that, began constructing dirigible airships. In 1901 he won a Paris air race and international fame. (After the race, he asked Louis Cartier for a timepiece that would keep his hands free - the first wristwatch.) Turning to heavier-than-air machines, Santos Dumont built his 14-Bis in 1906, three years after the Wright brothers’ initial flight. His flight was the first in Europe, and his plane was the first anywhere to lift off the ground under its own power. In 1909 Santos Dumont designed the Demoiselle monoplane, the first modern light plane. In 1901 Santos Dumont fell ill with multiple sclerosis and retired from flying. He returned to Brazil in 1916. Ill and despondent over the use of aircraft in warfare, he committed suicide in 1932.

This recipe for chocolate cookies was sent to The New York Times several years ago by Mari Pfeiffer, a reader in California; it’s from the cookbook “Great Cookies,” published in 2003 by the author and teacher Carole Walter. The cookies are filled with deep flavor from the combination of cocoa powder, unsweetened chocolate and espresso powder. Decorate them with royal icing. “Other icings would spoil the cookie’s simple yet amazing flavor,” said Ms. Pfeiffer, who often cuts the dough into letters to spell out seasonal messages.

Renata, from Brazil: I just kiss them on the cheek. Just one kiss, because I’m from São Paulo. I have friends from Rio and they always kiss twice. 

Guillermo, from Chile: When it’s the first time I’m meeting someone or in formal situations, I shake hands. With my male friends, I give them a hug or a pat on the back but If I’m greeting a female friend, it’s different: I give her a kiss on the cheek and sometimes I hug her. Women greet each other the same way: kissing and sometimes hugging. 

Marco, from Italy: I shake hands in formal situations. Where I live, kissing is acceptable. It’s OK for men to kiss each other, for men to kiss women or for women to kiss each other. But with my male friends I usually just give a hug or a pat on the back. 

Molly, from the USA: When I greet close friends I give them a hug. For casual friends, I just say “Hi”. For men it’s a little different. Where I live they never hug each other, it’s just “Hey, man”. In formal situations I always shake hands, and it’s important to shake hands firmly. When I’m saying good-bye to people I’m not very close to, I also shake hands, be it a man or a woman. Kissing is not usual around here, unless it’s among really close family members.

The Last Dalai Lama?

On a wet Sunday in June at the Glastonbury Festival, more than 100,000 people spontaneously burst into a rendition of ‘‘Happy Birthday.’’ Onstage, Tenzin Gyatso, the 14th Dalai Lama, blew out the solitary candle on a large birthday cake while clasping the hand of Patti Smith, who stood beside him. The world’s most famous monk then poked a thick finger at Smith’s silvery mane. ‘‘Musicians,’’ he said, ‘‘white hair.’’ But ‘‘the voice and physical action,’’ he added in his booming baritone, ‘‘forceful.’’ As Smith giggled, he went on: ‘‘So, that gives me encouragement. Myself, now 80 years old, but I should be like you — more active!’’

Meet the 'homeless man' who flies the world first class

For the last year and a half, Ben Schlappig has been essentially homeless. The 25-year-old American has ______ fixed address, ______ the keys to his own front door. Why bother paying rent, he figured, when a bed was only ever a first class ticket away?

Schlappig is a "Hobbyist," as those in the game call it - a professional traveler with an almost obsessive attention to fine print, who uses a mixture of frequent flyer miles and credit card reward points, to zoom around the globe for a fraction of the cost.

Since he first started racking up air miles a little over a decade ago – yes, he was just 14 when he started this – Schlappig says he's never flown economy on an international flight.

➧ TEXTThe following text refers to questions 21 e 22.

The following are examples of types of air traffic controllers:
Tower controllers direct the movement of vehicles on runways and taxiways. They check flight plans, give pilots clearance for takeoff or landing, and direct the movement of aircraft and other traffic on the runways and other parts of the airport. Most work from control towers, as they generally must be able to see the traffic they control.

Approach and departure controllers ensure that aircraft traveling within an airport's airspace maintain minimum separation for safety. They give clearances to enter controlled airspace and hand off control of aircraft to en route controllers. They use radar equipment to monitor flight paths and work in buildings known as Terminal Radar Approach Control Centers (TRACON). They also provide information to pilots, such as weather conditions and other critical notices.

En route controllers monitor aircraft once they leave an airport's airspace. They work at air route traffic control centers located throughout the country, which typically are not located at airports.

Each center is assigned an airspace based on the geography and altitude of the area in which it is located. As an airplane approaches and flies through a center's airspace, en route controllers guide the airplane along its route. They may adjust the flight path of aircraft for safety and collision avoidance.

Air Traffic Controllers

Air traffic controllers coordinate the movement of air traffic, to ensure that aircraft stay safe distances apart.

Duties:

Air traffic controllers typically do the following:
- Issue landing and takeoff instructions to pilots;
- Monitor and direct the movement of aircraft on the ground and in the air, using radar, computers, or visual references; - Control all ground traffic at airports, including baggage vehicles and airport workers;
- Manage communications by transferring control of departing flights to traffic control centers and accepting control of arriving flights;
- Provide information to pilots, such as weather updates, runway closures, and other critical information; and
- Alert airport response staff, in the event of an aircraft emergency.

Air traffic controllers' primary concern is safety, but they also must direct aircraft efficiently to minimize delays. They manage the flow of aircraft into and out of the airport airspace, guide pilots during takeoff and landing, and monitor aircraft, as they travel through the skies.

Controllers usually manage multiple aircraft at the same time and must make quick decisions to ensure the safety of the aircraft. For example, a controller might direct one aircraft on its landing approach, while providing another aircraft with weather information.
