lifetime?
08 comments to the question
#1
Norway. It has the most beautiful nature in the world.
Genuinely nice people and it's so safe I hardly locked my
bike in most places.
#2
Kyrgyzstan. It absolutely blew my mind. It's stunningly
beautiful and has an impressive range of landscapes for
such a small country. The food was fantastic, the people
were just amazing, and the entire experience was
incredible.
#3
Costa Rica, by far. I've been to a lot of countries, but the
friendly atmosphere, combined with the beautiful views of
Costa Rica are just perfect for me.
#4
Taiwan gets my vote. I think I could live there. I love it! It's
easy to get around. The people are so kind. It's clean and
safe. So scenic. Big fan.
#5
Panama. Amazing landscapes (tropical forests, mountains,
beaches), incredible wildlife (some of the best birds I've
had the chance to see) and extremely friendly people. And
less tourists than its neighbor, Costa Rica, where I've also
been to and liked so much.
#6
Turkey (specifically Istanbul). The food was obscenely
tasty and very reasonably priced. The people were friendly
(minus the taxi drivers) and the metro was incredibly clean.
There's so much history there and so much fun stuff to do.
#7
Italy, for sure. Northern Italy was the most gorgeous place
I've ever seen! Traveling to small towns nestled in the
Dolomites, eating some of the best food I've ever had, and
driving on incredible mountain roads. Then you go south to
see beautiful sandy beaches and some famous cities in
Europe! That place has everything.
#8
Japan. Hands down the safest country I've ever been to.
The best food (not just Japanese food), awesome outdoors
(especially for a skier like me), everything is super clean,
the mix between ancient and modern, and the most
hospitable people I've ever met traveling. If I were to move
to another country for a couple of years out of the ones I've
been to so far (9 countries), I'd definitely move to Japan. 🟩 QUESTÃO 21

🟨 Read text II to answer questions 24 to 27. Disability is not an obstacle to success. These inspirational
leaders prove that. World Economic Forum Dec 2, 2016
Disability need not be an obstacle to success," Stephen
Hawking wrote in the first ever world disability report back
in 2011. As one of the most influential scientists of modern
times, the wheelchair-bound physicist is certainly proof of
that. These four leaders show that disability is no barrier to
achieving incredible things.
Frida Kahlo Mexico's most famous artist was born with spina bifida, a
condition that can cause defects in the spinal cord. At six,
she contracted polio, which left one leg much thinner than
the other.
In spite of these challenges, she was an active child, but at
18 a bus accident left her with serious injuries. It was while
recovering from the accident that Frida discovered her love
of painting. She would go on to be one of the most famous
Surrealists in the world.
Helen Keller Born in the US in 1880, an illness left Helen Keller both
blind and deaf before her second birthday. While the
services available to people with disabilities were less
extensive than they are today, Keller's mother sought out
experts and ensured her daughter received the best
education.
In 1904, Keller graduated from Radcliffe College, becoming
the first deaf-blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts. It was
at university that her career as a writer and social activist
started. Today, the Helen Keller archives contain almost
500 speeches and essays on topics as varied as birth
control and Fascism in Europe.
She would go on to achieve international acclaim,
becoming America's first Goodwill Ambassador, and to this
day she remains an inspiration to the deaf and blind.
Mark Pollock "I went blind at 22. From an athlete, I became a young man
with a white cane, unsure how to live my life," Mark Pollock,
a Forum Young Global Leader explains. But very soon, he
found a deeper purpose in life, and realized his disability
didn't have to stop him from achieving great things.
"I began to race in deserts, mountains, across oceans, and
on the 10th anniversary of going blind, I raced over 43 days
to the South Pole."
But in 2010, an accident left him paralyzed, and once again
his world changed overnight: "My new life was shattered."
He had a choice: to let his disability define him for the rest
of his life, or to continue fighting.
There was only ever one
way it was going to go.
"If I just sat in a wheelchair, I would
be giving up completely," he remembers.
Today, he's
working with other leaders from science, technology and
communications to fund and fast-track a cure for paralysis.
Ralph Braun Ralph Braun was still a young boy when he was diagnosed
with muscular dystrophy, an incurable group of genetic
diseases that leads to a loss of muscle mass.
A few years after his diagnosis, Raiph began to lose his
ability to walk.
While doctors warned him he would never be
able to lead an independent life, the lively young boy was
already proving people wrong, building the first batterypowered scooter. His passion would eventually lead him to
establish wheelchair manufacturer BraunAbility.
He died in 2013, but as his company's website notes, his
legacy lives on.
"Necessity is the mother of invention, and
Ralph's physical limitations only served to fuel his
determination to live independently and prove to society
that people with physical disabilities can participate fully

🟨 Read text IV to answer questions 31 and 32. When we started for our drive the sun was shining brightly
on Munich, and the air was full of the joyousness of early
summer.
Just as we were about to depart, Herr Delbruck (the
maitred'hotel of the Quatre Saisons, where I was staying)
came down bareheaded to the carriage and, after wishing
me a pleasant drive, said to the coachman, still holding his
hand on the handle of the carriage door,
"Remember you
are back by nightfall. The sky looks bright but there is a
shiver in the north wind that says there may be a sudden
storm. But I am sure you will not be late."
Here he smiled
and added, "for you know what night it is."
Johann answered with an emphatic, "Ja, mein Herr," and,
touching his hat, drove off quickly.
When we had cleared
the town, I said, after signalling to him to stop: "Tell me,
Johann, what is tonight?"
He crossed himself, as he
answered laconically: "Walpurgis nacht."
(...) "Well, Johann, I want to go down this road. I shall not
ask you to come unless you like; but tell me why you do
not like to go", I asked.
For answer, he seemed to throw
himself off the box, so quickly did he reach the ground.
Then he stretched out his hands appealingly to me, and
implored me not to go.
There was just enough of English
mixed with the German for me to understand the drift of his
talk. He seemed always just about to tell me something -
the very idea of which evidently frightened him; but, each
time, he pulled himself up, saying, as he crossed himself:
"Walpurgis nacht!" 🧷Excerpt from "Dracula's Guest", a short story by Bram Stoker

Read text VI to answer questions 35 to 37. Throughout history, countless remarkable women have
made invaluable contributions to the fields of Science,
Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
Their
pioneering work has not only advanced human
understanding in these disciplines, but also paved the way
for future generations of female scientists and engineers,
shattering stereotypes and challenging societal norms in
the process.
Over the past decade, we've witnessed a significant
increase in the number of women and girls from all
backgrounds and races expressing interest in STEM fields.
This diversity enriches the pool of minds focused on
answering some of the most challenging questions of our
time.
The surge in female participation has led to an
explosion of new perspectives, ideas, and innovations,
contributing significantly to scientific and technological
advancement.
There are now more women scientists,
engineers, mathematicians, and technologists than ever
before working tirelessly to solve complex problems,
making our planet a better and more advanced place to
live.
This shift is not only encouraging but also critical for
the future of global innovation.
Despite progress in recent years, there is still a significant
gender gap within STEM fields.
According to the National
Science Foundation, women in STEM make up only 28%
of the workforce in science and engineering occupations.
This under-representation of women in STEM can be
attributed to a number of factors, including unconscious
bias and lack of access to opportunities.
However, it is
crucial that we work towards increasing female
representation in these fields, not only for the sake of
gender equality, but also to ensure diverse perspectives
and approaches to problem-solving within the women in
STEM community.
By empowering and supporting women
in STEM, we can drive innovation and advancements that
benefit society as a whole. 🧷Adapted from: https://abakcus.com/🟩 QUESTÃO 35
In the sentence "This shift is not only encouraging but also
critical for the future of global innovation" (second
paragraph), the subject "This shift" refers to: (A) global interest in STEM fields. (B) more women working in STEM. (C) under-representation of women in STEM. (D) advancements in STEM that benefit society. (E) bias and lack of access to opportunities in STEM.💡 GABARITO Ⓑ 🧊Enunciado:

🟨 Read text VII to answer questions 38 to 40. Techcrunch - Media and Entertainment HBO's 'The Last of Us' is a video game adaptation that's
actually good By Lauren Forristal January 13, 2023
"The Last of Us is HBO's post-apocalyptic thriller based on
the popular video game.
It debuted on Sunday, January
15, 2023, on HBO channels.
The series has nine episodes
in total and follows the plot of the 2013 game in which a
fungus outbreak turns half of the world's population into
flesh-eating zombies -a.k.a. "clickers."
Starring "The Mandalorian" actor Pedro Pascal as Joel (a
hardened middle-aged survivor tormented by the trauma of
his past), and "Game of Thrones" actress Bella Ramsey as
Ellie (a feisty, 14 year-old girl), "The Last of Us centers
around these two characters who, at first, want nothing to
do with each other.
Joel and his confidant, Tess (played by
Anna Torv), are tasked with smuggling Ellie out of the
quarantine zone in Boston and across the U.S. As the
story progresses, Ellie and Joel's dynamic shifts as they
start to depend on each other.
"The Last of Us" is HBO's first foray into adapting a video
game into a series. After so many video game adaptation
fails, the show is a relief to many "Last of Us" fans. It was
co-written by the game's creator, Neil Druckmann, so there
was little room for it to flop in the first place.
HBO's "The
Last of Us" is Druckmann's love letter addressed to the
millions of. loyal fans that help keep the decade-long
franchise alive.
On the surface, "The Last of Us" may just seem like
another survival story with zombies. However, the НВО
series doesn't focus on dramatic, long-winded shootouts
and shots of the undead.
Instead, it focuses on the human
relationships between the uninfected as their world turns
more uncertain by the minute.
But what makes this show so great, in our opinion, is the
fact that viewers don't need to play the game to
understand it.
Although HBO's "The Last of Us" is very
accurate to the timeline of the game and has Easter eggs
sprinkled throughout, there are some key differences that
help the story speak to a larger audience.

When we started for our drive the sun was shining brightly
on Munich, and the air was full of the joyousness of early
summer.
Just as we were about to depart, Herr Delbruck (the
maitred'hotel of the Quatre Saisons, where I was staying)
came down bareheaded to the carriage and, after wishing
me a pleasant drive, said to the coachman, still holding his
hand on the handle of the carriage door,
"Remember you
are back by nightfall. The sky looks bright but there is a
shiver in the north wind that says there may be a sudden
storm. But I am sure you will not be late."
Here he smiled
and added, "for you know what night it is."
Johann answered with an emphatic, "Ja, mein Herr," and,
touching his hat, drove off quickly.
When we had cleared
the town, I said, after signalling to him to stop: "Tell me,
Johann, what is tonight?"
He crossed himself, as he
answered laconically: "Walpurgis nacht."
(...) "Well, Johann, I want to go down this road. I shall not
ask you to come unless you like; but tell me why you do
not like to go", I asked.
For answer, he seemed to throw
himself off the box, so quickly did he reach the ground.
Then he stretched out his hands appealingly to me, and
implored me not to go.
There was just enough of English
mixed with the German for me to understand the drift of his
talk. He seemed always just about to tell me something -
the very idea of which evidently frightened him; but, each
time, he pulled himself up, saying, as he crossed himself:
"Walpurgis nacht!"

initiative ever to be conducted with Black British
communities.
The project is a ground-breaking collaboration between
@CamSociology, @TheVoiceNewspaper and 1-Cubed

The research reveals a central split on the question of
British pride in Black communities, and shows that racial

Throughout history, countless remarkable women have
made invaluable contributions to the fields of Science,
Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).
Their
pioneering work has not only advanced human
understanding in these disciplines, but also paved the way
for future generations of female scientists and engineers,
shattering stereotypes and challenging societal norms in
the process.
Over the past decade, we've witnessed a significant
increase in the number of women and girls from all
backgrounds and races expressing interest in STEM fields.
This diversity enriches the pool of minds focused on
answering some of the most challenging questions of our
time.
The surge in female participation has led to an
explosion of new perspectives, ideas, and innovations,
contributing significantly to scientific and technological
advancement.
There are now more women scientists,
engineers, mathematicians, and technologists than ever
before working tirelessly to solve complex problems,
making our planet a better and more advanced place to
live.
This shift is not only encouraging but also critical for
the future of global innovation.
Despite progress in recent years, there is still a significant
gender gap within STEM fields.
According to the National
Science Foundation, women in STEM make up only 28%
of the workforce in science and engineering occupations.
This under-representation of women in STEM can be
attributed to a number of factors, including unconscious
bias and lack of access to opportunities.
However, it is
crucial that we work towards increasing female
representation in these fields, not only for the sake of
gender equality, but also to ensure diverse perspectives
and approaches to problem-solving within the women in
STEM community.
By empowering and supporting women
in STEM, we can drive innovation and advancements that
benefit society as a whole.

HBO's 'The Last of Us' is a video game adaptation that's
actually good
By Lauren Forristal
January 13, 2023
"The Last of Us is HBO's post-apocalyptic thriller based on
the popular video game.
It debuted on Sunday, January
15, 2023, on HBO channels.
The series has nine episodes
in total and follows the plot of the 2013 game in which a
fungus outbreak turns half of the world's population into
flesh-eating zombies -a.k.a. "clickers."
Starring "The Mandalorian" actor Pedro Pascal as Joel (a
hardened middle-aged survivor tormented by the trauma of
his past), and "Game of Thrones" actress Bella Ramsey as
Ellie (a feisty, 14 year-old girl), "The Last of Us centers
around these two characters who, at first, want nothing to
do with each other.
Joel and his confidant, Tess (played by
Anna Torv), are tasked with smuggling Ellie out of the
quarantine zone in Boston and across the U.S. As the
story progresses, Ellie and Joel's dynamic shifts as they
start to depend on each other.
"The Last of Us" is HBO's first foray into adapting a video
game into a series. After so many video game adaptation
fails, the show is a relief to many "Last of Us" fans. It was
co-written by the game's creator, Neil Druckmann, so there
was little room for it to flop in the first place.
HBO's "The
Last of Us" is Druckmann's love letter addressed to the
millions of. loyal fans that help keep the decade-long
franchise alive.
On the surface, "The Last of Us" may just seem like
another survival story with zombies. However, the НВО
series doesn't focus on dramatic, long-winded shootouts
and shots of the undead.
Instead, it focuses on the human
relationships between the uninfected as their world turns
more uncertain by the minute.
But what makes this show so great, in our opinion, is the
fact that viewers don't need to play the game to
understand it.
Although HBO's "The Last of Us" is very
accurate to the timeline of the game and has Easter eggs
sprinkled throughout, there are some key differences that
help the story speak to a larger audience.
🟩 QUESTÃO 38
It is possible to state that the main purpose of the text is to
provide readers with a:
🅐 TV series review.
🅑 TV series description.
🅒 video game adaptation.
🅓 video game explanation.
🅔 TV series advertisement.
💡 GABARITO Ⓐ
🧊Enunciado:
“It is possible to state that the main purpose of the text is to provide readers with a:”
→ 🅐 ✅TV series review.
O texto é de um site jornalístico (TechCrunch) e apresenta informações sobre a série The Last of Us, comentando sua qualidade, enredo, elenco, diferenças em relação ao jogo e recepção do público.
Isso caracteriza uma avaliação + análise crítica, típica de review.
Agora vamos alternativa por alternativa:
(A) ✅TV series review. — CORRETA
O texto:
apresenta opinião (“…that’s actually good”, “the show is a relief to many fans”);
contextualiza o enredo;
comenta a fidelidade ao jogo;
explica por que a série funciona mesmo para quem não jogou;
faz juízo crítico (“doesn’t focus on…”, “what makes this show so great…”).
❗Tudo isso configura uma review (uma análise/avaliação crítica).
(B) ❌TV series description.
Pegadinha: Embora o texto contenha descrição (do enredo, atores, personagens), descrever não é o objetivo principal.
A descrição existe apenas como suporte para a avaliação, que é o foco.
Ou seja, é descritivo, mas não é um texto descritivo.
(C) ❌video game adaptation.
Pegadinha: Pode confundir porque a série é, de fato, uma adaptação de videogame, mas:
o texto não oferece a adaptação em si,
nem explica como adaptar um jogo,
nem apresenta o produto “adaptação”.
O tema é uma review sobre a adaptação, não a adaptação em si.
(D) ❌video game explanation.
O texto não explica o videogame, sua mecânica, história completa ou funcionamento.
Ele apenas menciona o jogo como referência para comparar com a série.
(E) ❌TV series advertisement.
O texto não tenta vender nada, nem é promocional:
Não há linguagem comercial.
Não há calls to action (“watch now!”).
Não é propaganda da HBO.
A intenção é informar e avaliar, não promover.
🟩 QUESTÃO 39
According to the author, The Last of Us is:
(A) a story focused on the relationship between two main
characters.
(B) another tedious story about survival and shooting
zombies.
(C) a good video game poorly turned into a TV show by
HBO.
(D) a 2023 TV series that inspired the creation of a video
game.
(E) an HBO series that can only be understood by video
game players.
