Questão 09
– Linguistic knowledge strengthens by means of language practice,
together with analysis, and insight about its use, always considering context in articulation with reading, writing, and speaking.
Having observed verbal and non verbal data in the featured image,
it is possible to state that the building of humor is based on:
A) Polysemy.
B) Paronymy.
C) Paraphrase.
D) Subordination.
💡 GABARITO A
🧩 ANÁLISE DA CENA:
🔹Imagem: uma foca (seal) fala para um tubarão:
🔹“Do not consume if Seal is broken.”
🔹Frase original (real): normalmente aparece em embalagens e significa: “Não consuma se o lacre estiver rompido.”
(Aqui, “seal” = lacre, vedação.)
🔹Na imagem:
A palavra “seal” ganha outro sentido — o animal foca —, pois é ele quem está falando.
🎭 Como o humor é construído:
🔹O humor nasce do duplo sentido da palavra “seal”, que possui dois significados possíveis:
🔹Significado 1 → Lacre / vedação (objeto que protege embalagens).
🔹Significado 2 → Foca (animal marinho).
➡️ Assim, o aviso “Do not consume if seal is broken” é reinterpretado literalmente pela foca, que teme ser “consumida” (devorada) pelo tubarão.
💬 Humor = resultado da ambiguidade lexical criada pela polissemia.
A) ✅Polysemy
🔹Polysemy é quando uma mesma palavra tem vários significados relacionados entre si. Esses significados podem variar de acordo com o contexto, mas mantêm uma conexão de sentido. Por exemplo, o duplo sentido da palavra SEAL:
🔹Sentido 1 → Lacre / vedação
🔹Sentido 2 → Foca (animal)
B) ❌Paronymy → Palavras semelhantes na forma, mas diferentes no sentido (ex: accept × except). Não é o caso.
C) ❌Paraphrase → Reescrita com o mesmo sentido. Não ocorre aqui.
D) ❌Subordination → Relação sintática entre orações. Não há subordinação envolvida.
❑ Read the description of an oral practice activity to answer
10.
The teacher tells students they will train pronunciation. First he/she
reads pairs of sentences aloud; the students follow the teacher’s
reading. Next, the teacher delivers students handouts containing
the pairs of sentences they have just heard, and gets them oriented
to repeat the sentences that he/she will read aloud again, pausing
after each sentence to give students the opportunity to carry out
choir repetition. After this step is repeated several times and
performed satisfactory, the teacher will ask individual students to
read the sentences, and he/she will ellicit any doudts they might
have, as well as correct pronunciation.
The handout sentences
1.A – Do you know Valen’s address?
1.B – Do you have permition to address President Biden?
2.A – Dishonesty is a common attribute of politicians.
2.B – That quote is attributed to Bob Dylan.
3.A – We aren’t happy with your conduct.
3.B – He was asked to conduct the philarmonic orchestra.
4.A – The content of your essay is fine, the structure is not.
4.B – She seemed very content while reading the message.
5.A – The army marched through the desert.
5.B – If you desert the army you will be in big trouble.
6.A – What is that object over there?
6.B – Would you object if I opened the window?
7.A – The project should be completed next month.
7.B – We could project the film on the wall.
Questão 10
Choose the item that justifies the use of the pairs of sentences
for oral practice.
A) Homophones may be pronounced in diverse ways.
B) Homographs may be pronounced the same or not.
C) Different tonicities will hinder the distinct meanings.
D) Minimal pairs have vowels with different completion.
💡 GABARITO B
🧩 CONTEXTO DA QUESTÃO:
🔹O professor quer que os alunos treinem pronúncia.
🔹As sentenças no handout apresentam pares de palavras iguais na escrita, mas com pronúncia e significado diferentes.
🔹Exemplos dos pares apresentados:
🟨 address / address
🔹Do you know Valen’s address? → address = substantivo (“endereço”) → /ˈæd.res/
🔹Do you have permission to address President Biden? → address = verbo (“dirigir-se a alguém”) → /əˈdres/
🟨 conduct / conduct
🔹We aren’t happy with your conduct. → substantivo (“comportamento”) → /ˈkɒn.dʌkt/
🔹He was asked to conduct the orchestra. → verbo (“dirigir, reger”) → /kənˈdʌkt/
🟨 content / content
🔹The content of your essay is fine... → substantivo (“conteúdo”) → /ˈkɒn.tent/
🔹She seemed very content... → adjetivo (“satisfeita”) → /kənˈtent/
🟨 object / object, project / project, etc.
👉 Todas essas palavras têm a mesma forma escrita, mas mudam de pronúncia conforme a função e o significado.
💬 CONCEITO-CHAVE:
📘 Homographs → Palavras iguais na grafia, mas com pronúncia e/ou significado diferentes:
🔹record (substantivo) /ˈrek.ɔːd/ vs record (verbo) /rɪˈkɔːd/.
📘Homophones → Palavras com a mesma pronúncia, mas escrita e significado diferentes.
🔹sea × see.
📘Homonyms → Palavras com mesma forma e som, mas significados diferentes.
🔹bat (morcego / taco).
🎯 Por que o gabarito é B
B) ✅Homographs may be pronounced the same or not.
✔️ Correto, porque as palavras nos pares são homógrafas: têm a mesma grafia, mas pronúncias e significados diferentes (dependendo se são substantivos, verbos, etc.).
🔹O exercício visa treinar essa distinção oral, melhorando a percepção fonológica e a entonação.
🔹Por que as outras estão erradas:
A) ❌Homophones → mesmas pronúncias, grafias diferentes (two / too / to). Não é o caso.
C) ❌Different tonicities will hinder… → embora haja diferença de tonicidade, a alternativa é muito vaga e não define o fenômeno linguístico.
D) ❌Minimal pairs → pares com uma diferença de som apenas (ship / sheep), o que não ocorre aqui.
Questão 11
Examine the image to answer 11.
(Available in: https://www.researchgate.net.)
A meme is an amusing or interesting item, such as a captioned
picture or video, or genre of items that is spread widely online
especially through social media. It is consistent to assert the
highlighted meme contributes to overall student development
because it.
A) Embodies lexicon alluding new technologies.
B) Searches to depict divergence among cultures.
C) Approaches how new cultural influences wither.
D) Delves into interdisciplinary elements’ demands.
💡 GABARITO D
🧩ANÁLISE DO MEME:
🔹Texto da imagem: “Launch? I said lunch.”
🔹O humor vem da semelhança sonora entre as palavras “launch” e “lunch”, que soam muito parecidas em inglês, especialmente para quem ainda está desenvolvendo sua pronúncia.
🔊 Aspecto linguístico
🔹Launch → lançar, iniciar (algo)→/lɔːntʃ/→ Com som de “ó” longo.
🔹Lunch → almoço→ /lʌntʃ/ → Com som de “â” curto.
👉 Diferença mínima de som (vogal), gerando mal-entendido engraçado.
🔹Esse tipo de confusão é muito explorado em aulas de fonética.
🎓 Aspecto pedagógico / interdisciplinar
🔹A questão não quer apenas saber o sentido do meme, mas por que ele contribui para o desenvolvimento do estudante.
🔹O meme:
🔹envolve língua (vocabulário, fonética, listening comprehension);
🔹mas também cultura digital (uso de memes e humor online);
🔹e tecnologia e comunicação (meios de difusão na internet).
💡 Portanto, o meme é um recurso interdisciplinar, pois combina língua, tecnologia e cultura — elementos fundamentais na educação contemporânea.
D) ✅Delves into interdisciplinary elements’ demands.
🔹Correta → Aprofunda-se nas demandas de elementos interdisciplinares.”
✔️ Correta, porque o meme envolve linguagem, cultura, tecnologia e comunicação, mostrando como o ensino pode ser conectado a diferentes áreas.
❌ Por que as outras estão erradas
Alternativa Motivo incorreto
A) ❌“Embodies lexicon alluding new technologies”
🔹Incorreta → “Incorpora um léxico que alude às novas tecnologias.”
🔹O vocabulário (launch, lunch) não tem relação com tecnologia, mas com pronúncia.
B) ❌“Depict divergence among cultures”
🔹Incorreta → “Retratar a divergência entre culturas.”
🔹Depict → verbo que significa retratar, ilustrar, representar graficamente ou simbolicamente.
🔹Não há choque cultural aqui, apenas confusão fonética.
C) ❌“Approaches how new cultural influences wither”
🔹Incorreta → “Aborda como novas influências culturais desaparecem”
🔹Não fala sobre declínio cultural, então é irrelevante.
🔹Outro erro: o verbo “approaches” não costuma ser seguido diretamente de “how” em construções acadêmicas — soa coloquial ou truncado. A estrutura correta = "Approaches the way new cultural...".
Questão 12
– Some of the deep-seated concepts about the English language, and
consequently concerning its teaching, do not cater to the prospects
of a language that “went viral” and has become “miscigenated”, as
it is the concept of a foreign language strongly criticized for its
eurocentric slant. The item that represents a conflicting aspect
regarding the ILF (Inglês como Língua Franca) conception defended
in BNCC is:
A) Polyphony.
B) Territoriality.
C) Multiliteracies.
D) Interculturalism.
💡 GABARITO B
🧩Enunciado resumido
🔹Alguns conceitos tradicionais sobre a língua inglesa e seu ensino não se ajustam a uma visão atual, que reconhece o inglês como uma língua “miscigenada” (mesclada) e global — ou seja, um idioma que “viralizou” e deixou de pertencer a um território específico.
🔹A pergunta pede:
🔹Qual item representa um aspecto conflitante com a concepção de Inglês como Língua Franca (ILF) defendida pela BNCC?
🌍 Conceito de Inglês como Língua Franca (ILF)
🔹O Inglês como Língua Franca (ILF): É o inglês usado para comunicação entre falantes de diferentes línguas maternas.
🔹Não pertence a um país específico (como EUA, Inglaterra, etc.).
🔹Valoriza a diversidade linguística e cultural.
🔹Enfatiza interculturalidade, polifonia e multiliteracies (letramentos múltiplos).
🔹Portanto, o ILF rompe com a ideia de territorialidade — ele não tem dono, não é eurocêntrico, e adapta-se a contextos culturais diversos.
🧭 Análise das alternativas
A) ❌Polyphony → Refere-se à multiplicidade de vozes e perspectivas culturais e linguísticas — conceito alinhado ao ILF e à BNCC. Não conflita (é compatível).
B) ✅Territoriality → Relaciona-se à ideia de que o inglês pertence a um território (Inglaterra, EUA). 🔹Isso contradiz o ILF, que defende o inglês como língua global, não territorial. Conflitante → GABARITO.
C) ❌Multiliteracies Envolve múltiplos letramentos — digital, visual, multimodal, cultural — conceito defendido pela BNCC e coerente com o ILF. Compatível.
D) ❌Interculturalism Promove o diálogo entre culturas e respeito à diversidade — base do ILF e da BNCC. Compatível.
🎯 Conclusão
🔹O Inglês como Língua Franca (ILF) é global, híbrido e multicultural.
🔹A BNCC incentiva o ensino de inglês com base em diversidade, comunicação intercultural e múltiplos letramentos.
🔹Portanto, a “territorialidade” — ideia de que o inglês pertence a uma nação — é incompatível com essa visão.

The reading practices in the English language encompass a
variety of reading possibilities and reading strategies including
knowledge enlargement in issues which are meaningful to
students. Review the chart and the description of a reading
activity to answer 13.
The teacher introduces the topic of past verb forms by means of
informal conversation asking students about activities they performed on the last weekend (it is useful to know that the past tense
of regular and irregular verbs has already been studied in other
previous classes). Then he/she presents students a text, in the
genre interview, which students should silently read and employ to
fill in the individual chart that they have just been given. The
students are told to pay close attention to verb use in the text, so
that the chart should be filled with regular and irregular verbs which
appear in the text in their past form. Students are also told that not
all of the blanks in the chart would be filled. Afterward there will
happen the sharing and discussion of the collected information.

Delta variant and low vaccine access
creates a third wave in Africa
Covid-19 cases are surging across the African continent, with
more than twenty countries now in the grip of a third wave.
Experts predict this wave will surpass case numbers seen in
previous peaks. The speed and scale of Africa’s third wave is like
nothing seen before, says Matshidiso Moeti, the World Health
Organization regional director for Africa. The Delta variant is a
big part of this potentially catastrophic surge, with over a dozen
countries having detected cases. In Uganda and the Democratic
Republic of the Congo, the Delta variant is now the most
common in circulation. Stopping the spread and mutation of
Covid-19 relies on populations being vaccinated. But access to
vaccines in Africa is far too low. According to the latest WHO
figures, only 1% of the African population has been fully
vaccinated, compared to 50% of the population in high income
countries like the UK and USA. Covid-19 vaccines, the world’s
best hope to end the pandemic, are not being distributed fairly.

Read the text to answer 27.
In American literature, regionalism refers to works that describe
distinctive local geography and culture, and to movements that value
smaller-scaled representations of place over representations of
broad territorial range.
Regionalism emerges from the perception of
modern geographic plurality; writers and readers understand a larger
unit of space (commonly the national territory) to be diversified at its
periphery according to topographical features, economy, history,
dialect, and manners. A region is always one among many within a
common container, characterized by uneven development between
center and periphery. Regionalism indicates that a writer has chosen
to focus on one of the areas outside the centers of power, and to
organize the work around that region.
In American literature,
regionalism has been associated with the sketch or short story,
although the category can accommodate poetry and the novel.
Regionalism’s detractors have treated it as a minor form portraying outdated folkways, more parochial than literature that features a larger spatial scale and cosmopolitan characters.
Its defenders reject that evaluation, often arguing that regionalism
provided access to female, nonwhite, and rural writers, who used
the form in innovative and empowering ways.

For a typical dollar spent in 2020 by U.S. consumers on domestically produced food, including both grocery store and eating-out
purchases, 27.9 cents went to foodservice establishments such as
restaurants and other eating-out places. The foodservice share of
the food dollar decreased after 9 years of gains as households
shifted to food-at-home consumption during the first year of the
Covid-19 pandemic. For the remainder of the food dollar, transportation (4.1 cents) and wholesale trade (11.9 cents) rose to
their highest shares reported in the series, which provides statistics back to 1993.

Can a focus on playful learning be integrated in the
enabling environment?
“Enabling environment” refers to the broad set of interrelated national political, social and financial conditions that can
either promote or hinder the successful functioning of the preprimary sub-sector. A supportive enabling environment is conducive to recognizing the importance of learning through play, and
it can further strengthen this emphasis by fostering coordination
with other sectors such as health, nutrition and social protection,
which together can create a unified voice for play in children’s
lives. The elements of the enabling environment, and how they
can foster play-based learning, are:
1. Policies and legislation: Policies specific to the preprimary sub-sector are important because they can clearly
affirm children’s right to play and can state that playbased
learning is a distinctive and essential feature of effective
early learning. Policies and directives can reflect a childcentred approach to learning and teaching; such policies
create an expectation that playful learning will be taken
seriously and implemented across levels of the sub-sector.
2. Public Demand: Support for pre-primary services among
parents and caregivers is key and it should be informed by strong
awareness of what quality means in pre-primary education.
Awareness-raising should focus on young children’s unique
learning needs, e.g., the need to make meaning through playful
investigations supported by knowledgeable teachers. A key
aspect of fostering public support and demand for learning
through play is to ensure that parents recognize their role in
providing meaningful play experiences in the home environment,
and to empower them to do so. Garnering public support and
demand for learning through play will enhance the pre-primary
system’s commitment to and recognition of the benefits of play.

The Unicorn in the Garden
(James Thurber.)
Once upon a sunny morning a man who sat in a breakfast nook
looked up from his scrambled eggs to see a white unicorn with a
golden horn quietly cropping the roses in the garden. The man
went up to the bedroom where his wife was still asleep and woke
her. “There's a unicorn in the garden,” he said. “Eating roses.” She
opened one unfriendly eye and looked at him. “The unicorn is a
mythical beast,” she said, and turned her back on him. The man
walked slowly downstairs and out into the garden. The unicorn
was still there; he was now browsing among the tulips. “Here,
unicorn,” said the man and pulled up a lily and gave it to him. The
unicorn ate it gravely. With a high heart, because there was a
unicorn in his garden, the man went upstairs and roused his wife
a gain. “The unicorn,” he said, “ate a lily.” His wife sat up in bed
and looked at him, coldly. “You are a booby,” she said, “and I am
going to have you put in a booby-hatch.” The man, who never
liked the words “booby” and “booby-hatch,” and who liked them
even less on a shining morning when there was a unicorn in the
garden, thought for a moment. “We'll see about that,” he said. He
walked over to the door. “He has a golden horn in the middle of
his forehead,” he told her. Then he went back to the garden to
watch the unicorn; but the unicorn had gone away. The man sat
among the roses and went to sleep. And as soon as the husband
had gone out of the house, the wife got up and dressed as fast
as she could. She was very excited and there was a gloat in
her eye. She telephoned the police and she telephoned the
psychiatrist; she told them to hurry to her house and bring a
straitjacket. When the police and the psychiatrist arrived they sat
down in chairs and looked at her, with great interest. “My
husband,” she said, “saw a unicorn this morning.” The police
looked at the psychiatrist and the psychiatrist looked at the police.
“He told me it ate a lily,” she said. The psychiatrist looked at the
police and the police looked at the psychiatrist. “He told me it had
a golden horn in the middle of its forehead,” she said. At a solemn
signal from the psychiatrist, the police leaped from their chairs
and seized the wife. They had a hard time subduing her, for she
put up a terrific struggle, but they finally subdued her. Just as they
got her into the straitjacket, the husband came back into the
house. “Did you tell your wife you saw a unicorn?” asked the police.
“Of course not,” said the husband. “The unicorn is a mythical
beast.” “That's all I wanted to know,” said the psychiatrist. “Take
her away. I'm sorry, sir, but your wife is as crazy as a jay bird.” So
they took her away, cursing and screaming, and shut her up in an
institution. The husband lived happily ever after.
