Agora, vamos à prova.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Read the text below and answer questions 48, 49 and 50.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Will we ever grow replacement hands?
_____________________________________________________________________________
Over the past few weeks on the BBC News website we have looked at the potential for bionic body parts and artificial organs to repair the human body. Now we take a look at "growing-your-own".

There is a pressing need. A shortage of available organs means many die on waiting lists and those that get an organ must spend a lifetime on immunosuppressant drugs to avoid rejection.

The idea is that using a patient's own stem cells to grow new body parts avoids the whole issue of rejection as well as waiting for a donor.

Dr Anthony Atala, director of the Institute for Regenerative Medicine at the Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center in North Carolina, US, has made breakthroughs in building bladders and urethras.

He breaks tissue-building into four levels of complexity.
• Flat structures, such as the skin, are the simplest to engineer as they are generally made up of just the one type of cell.
• Tubes, such as blood vessels and urethras, which have two types of cells and act as a conduit.
• Hollow non-tubular organs like the bladder and the stomach, which have more complex structures and functions.
• Solid organs, such as the kidney, heart and liver, are the most complex to engineer. They are exponentially more complex, have many different cell types, and more challenges in the blood supply.

"We’ve been able to implant the first three in humans. We don't have any examples yet of solid organs in humans because its much more complex." Dr. Atala told the BBC.

Answer questions 38, 39, 40 and 41 according to the text “The anti-social network: avoiding online darkness”. 
_____________________________________________________________________________
The anti-social network: avoiding online darkness
By Michael Millar Business reporter, BBC News 
_____________________________________________________________________________
1
A 75-year-old Georgian woman who says she has never even heard of the internet is facing a possible prison sentence for single-handedly cutting off the web to an entire country.
2
Georgian police arrested Hayastan Shakarian after she allegedly hacked through a fibre optic cable that runs through Georgia to Armenia, while digging for copper.
3
With one stroke, the pensioner plunged 90% of internet users in Armenia into online darkness for nearly 12 hours.
4
The episode is a timely reminder that all it takes in our hi-tech world to shut down thousands of companies for a day is a determined old lady with a spade.
5
Research carried out in October 2010 by Avanti Communications offered a snapshot of just how fundamental the internet had become to businesses. 
6
The survey of companies worldwide suggested only 1% could function adequately without the internet.More than a quarter (27%) of those surveyed said they could not function at all if the internet went down, and one in five said a week without being online would be the death of their company.
7
Some solutions on offer are quite straightforward. One network provider, Geo, runs all its cable through the Victorian sewers in London. This solves one of the major problems that makes telecoms lines in many countries susceptible to being cut - they are laid on top of utility pipes.
8
Not only does this mean they are mere centimetres under the ground - but whenever repairs are done to utilities, the workmen have to get past the fibre optic wires first, meaning inevitable incidences of cuts. 
9
Other technologies on offer to providers - which will in turn help their customer stay connected - are mindboggling. For example, a company called OptaSense offers to stop potential breaks in service by listening to any threats as they approach.Using advanced sonar techniques, the company converts the fibre optic cable carrying the precious internet signal into an acoustic microphone.It can then tell the network provider exactly what is getting too close for comfort - be it a vehicle, human footsteps, digging or drilling. 
10
Avanti Communications is one of a handful of companies that offer 24-hour instantaneous back-up via a dedicated satellite.It launched its first satellite in November, which covers Europe, and plans to launch one covering the Middle East and India next year. Chief executive David Williams says satellite technology will play an ever more important role in communications networks. "Fibre optic cable costs around £150 per metre to dig, so building cable networks is incredibly expensive," he says."But one satellite can cover the whole of Europe - so wherever you are, it can get to you."
11
The future of networks is causing sleepless nights for IT professionals and policy makers alike.
12
The appetite for data across the globe is growing at an extraordinary rate and is putting an immense strain on the system. "A lot of the basis of the internet today was invented 30 years ago," says Tim Fritzley, InTune Networks chief executive. "In the 90's when people were envisioning the first part of the web even the most optimistic ones never saw anything like social networking." "They didn't see 10% of what is going on now," he says. InTune is working with the Irish government to vastly increase network capability worldwide by enabling a single strand of fibre to carry not just one signal from one operator, but data from up to 80 telecoms and TV companies at once.
13
Developers are working furiously to make sure our increasing hunger for data does not mean a collapse of the system. But whether this will protect users from marauding pensioners looking for copper remains to be seen.
Adapted from http://www.bbc.co.uk/,  21 April 2011.

TEXTO
_____________________________________________________________________________
In English many words are formed by suffixation. In grammar, a suffix (also postfix, ending) is an affix which is placed at the end of a word. Suffixes can 
carry grammatical information (inflectional suffixes), or lexical information (derivational suffixes).
Source: http://www.slideshare.net/. 
The word sleepless in the sentence “The future of networks is causing sleepless nights for IT professionals...” from the text is an example of a word formed by suffixation.
_____________________________________________________________________________
👉 Questão  40 :
Select the word that is not formed by suffixation: 
A) Hopeful.
B) Careless.
C) Awful.
D) Fatter.
E) Comfortably.
