Anita,
I can’t believe my trip is almost over.
I came to Easter Island just two weeks ago.
I was with agroup from the university. We

studied the stone statues, called moai, and the
cave paintings. I really learned a lot. I’m tired,
but I loved every minute of my trip.

Take care, Margaret

PS: On Easter Island, Iorana means “Hello.”

Hi, Luis!
My Hawaiian vacation just ended, and
I am very well rested! I spent my whole

forward to seeing you soon.

Love, Debbie

Dear Michelle,
Alaska is terrific! I just
returned from a trip to the Arctic
National Wildlife Refuge. There were

caribou. Now, I’m going to Anchorage.

See you soon!

The e-waste problem

The amount of electronic products discarded globally has skyrocketed recently, with 20-50 million
tonnes generated every year. If such a huge figure is hard to imagine, think of it like this - if the
estimated amount of e-waste generated every year would be put into containers on a train it
would go once around the world!

Electronic waste (e-waste) now makes up five percent of all municipal solid waste worldwide,
nearly the same amount as all plastic packaging, but it is much more hazardous. Not only
developed countries generate e-waste; Asia discards an estimated 12 million tonnes each year.

E-waste is now the fastest growing component of the municipal solid waste stream because people
are upgrading their mobile phones, computers, televisions, audio equipment and printers more
frequently than ever before. Mobile phones and computers are causing the biggest problem
because they are replaced most often. In Europe e-waste is increasing at three to five percent a
year, almost three times faster than the total waste stream. Developing countries are also
expected to triple their e-waste production over the next five years.

Did you know?

The average lifespan of computers in


developed countries has dropped
from six years in 1997 to just two
years in 2005.

Mobile phones have a lifecycle of less


than two years in developed
countries.

183 million computers were sold


worldwide in 2004 - 11.6 percent
more than in 2003.

674 million mobile phones were sold


worldwide in 2004 - 30 percent more
than in 2003. Close up of a huge pile of computer keyboards waiting to
be scrapped. These are likely to have been thrown away
By 2010, there will be 716 million in Europe, US or Japan and then dumped in China
new computers in use. There will be because it is cheaper to dump this hazardous waste in
178 million new computer users in China than dispose of it properly.
China, 80 million new users in India.

PRESENT PERFECT Tense


Form Present Perfect

[Has/Have] + [Particípio]
Exemplos:
1. I have seen the movie many times.
2. I have never seen the movie

NOTA: Quando você está usando um tempo verbal


com mais de uma parte, tais como o
Present Perfect (have seen), os advérbios
geralmente vêm entre a primeira e a
segunda parte (have never seen).

Uso 01: Ações que começaram no passado e que ainda


continuam.
Frequentemente, as palavras For (com uma extensão de tempo) e Since (com o
começo de tempo) são usadas com o Present Perfect.

CE Lourenço A. Galetti - Edirley Batista


PÁGINA 8
Exemplos:
1. He has lived in Canada for five years.
(Ele começou a morar no Canadá há cinco anos atrás, e ainda está
morando lá agora).
2. She has worked at the University since 1994.
(Ela começou a trabalhar na Universidade em 1994, e ainda está
trabalhando lá agora).

Uso 02: Ações que aconteceram em algum tempo


desconhecido no passado.
Às vezes, é importante dizer que alguma coisa aconteceu (ou não aconteceu), mas
não é importante (ou não é conhecido) quando isso aconteceu. Nesse caso, podemos
usar o Present Perfect também. Frequentemente usa-se as palavras already, yet, ever ou
never juntamente com o Present Perfect. Estas palavras geralmente vêm antes do
Particípio na frase.

Exemplos:
1. I’ve already seen that film. I don’t want to see it again.
(Não importa quando eu vi)
2. Have you ever been to Germany?
(Não importa quando você foi. -- Eu só quero saber se você esteve lá
ou não).

Uso 03: Ações que aconteceram no passado, mas que


tem efeito no presente.
Este uso é um pouco mais difícil do que os outros dois. Nesse caso, a ação
aconteceu em algum tempo no passado, mas o efeito da ação é, ainda, importante agora.
É mais fácil entender esse uso se compararmos as frases do Present Perfect com
as frases do Simple Past.

Exemplos:

Tempo Frase Significado

Present Eu não encontrei as chaves ainda –


I've lost my keys.
perfect Elas ainda estão perdidas.

I lost my keys Eu, provavelmente, já as encontrei


Simple past
yesterday. novamente.

Present She's broken her


O braço ainda está ferido.
perfect arm.

She broke her arm O braço está, provavelmente, bem,
Simple past

2. Como os carros poderiam melhorar no futuro?

Automobiles
The world has changed a lot since the last decades of the 19th century:
with the invention of the automobile, places have become closer and man has
traveled farther.
In the 20th century,
automobiles brought deep
changes to the cities. Cars
crowded the streets and took
the place of the old carriages.
The 50’s and the 60’s
represented the greatest days of
the automobile. But an oil crisis
occurred during the 70’s.
Gasoline became more
expensive. Large automobiles companies worried about it and began to work
on the “car of the future”.
Cars in the future will be more economical, lighter, and smaller than
they are today. They will use different forms of energy: electric, solar, and
many others. These new forms of energy will cause less pollution than gasoline
and will be cheaper.

Recognizing Stress
Which of these is stress?
1. You receive a promotion at work.
2. Your car has a flat tire.
3. You go to fun party that lasts until 2:00 a.m.
4. Your dog gets sick.
5. You get a bad case of hay fever.
6. Your best friend and his wife came to stay at your house for a week.

ALL OF THESE ARE STRESS.


If you are thinking stress is something that makes you worry, you
have the wrong idea of stress. Stress is many different things: happy
things, sad things, allergic things, physical things. Enormous stress
loads are carried by many people and they do not even realize it!
> WHAT IS STRESS?
We are all familiar with the word “stress”. Stress is when you are
worried about having enough money to pay your bills, or worried about
your grades at school. In fact, to most
of us, stress is synonymous with worry.
If it is something that makes you
worry, then it is stress.
Your body, however, has a much
broader definition of stress. TO YOUR
BODY, STRESS IS SYNONYMOUS
WITH CHANGE. Anything that causes a
change in your life causes stress. It
doesn’t matter if it is a “good change”,
or a “bad change”, they are both stress.
When you find your dream apartment and get ready to move, that is
stress. If you break your leg, that is stress. Good or bad, if it is a
CHANGE in your life, it is stress as far as your body is concerned.
Stress is an unavoidable consequence of life. Without stress, there
would be no life. However, just as suffering can cause disease, there are
good stresses that compensate this, and promote wellness. Increased
stress results in increased productivity – up to a point. This level differs
for each of us. It’s very much like the stress on a violin string. Not
enough produces a dull, raspy sound. Too much makes a shrill,
annoying noise, or causes the string to break. However, just the right
degree can create magnificent tones. Similarly, we all need to find the
proper level of stress that promotes optimal performance, and enables
us to make melodious music.

Answer the questions in the Comprehenseion check. Check


the meaning of new words in your dictionary.

BUDAPEST
Budapest has a population of over two milion people. One in every five
Hungarians lives there. The River Danube divides the city into two parts. On the west
bank there are the woods and hills of Buda and the old town. On
the east bank there is the bigger and more modern Pest, the
business and shopping centre. From Buda there are wonderful
views of Pest and the river. Six bridges join Buda and Pest.

Important dates in the history of Budapest


For nearly a thousand years Buda and Pest were two
towns. Then in 1873 they joined and became one city, Budapest.
Until 1939 Budapest was one of the most important cultural
capitals of Europe. Then World Was II started. In 1945 the city
was in ruins and the Communists took control. In 1956 the people
tried to free themselves. They pulled down a statue of Stalin and fought the soldiers, but
they were not successful. Communist rule did not end until 1989.

The city today


Budapest is very unusual because it has two completely
different parts. You can choose the peace and quiet of Buda’s
woods or the excitement of Pest, where there are good theatres,
restaurants, bars, and shops.
The public transport system in Budapest is one of the best
and cheapest in the world. You can travel easily by underground,
bus, tram, and taxi, but driving a car in Budapest is not a good
idea! There are not many car parks. Most cars are old, so pollution
is very bad.
The healthiest thing to do in the city is to visit one of the
thirty spa baths and swimming pools. The mineral waters of Budapest are famous, and a
very popular way to relax.

PRAGUE
Prague has a population of unusual of over one
million people. It is not the biggest city in Europe, but it
is certainly one of the most beautiful. It is built on seven
hills on the banks of the River Vltava. Fifteen bridges
cross the river. The most famous in Charles Bridge,
which joins Prague Castle and the old town. The view of the castle from the river is
very famous.

Important dates in the history of Prague


Prague did not become the capital until October 1918, after World War I, when
Czechoslovakia became an independent country. Twenty years later, in 1938, it lost its
independence again before World War II. After the war, in 1948, the Communists took

control. In 1968 the people tried to free themselves. They
fought the soldiers in Wenceslas Square, but they were not
successful. Communists rule did not end until 1989.

The city today


Some people say Prague is the most beautiful city in
the world! They call it ‘The Golden City’ and ‘The Mother of
Cities’ because it still has many beautiful medieval buildings
and statues. Perhaps the most popular building is the Old
Town Hall with its amazing
15th century astronomical
clock.
People also call Prague ‘Europe’s School of Music’.
There are many concert halls, and every May there is a
famous music festival: ‘Prague Spring’. There are also
twenty theatres and many old pubs, wine bars, and restaurants.
There is now a modern underground, but traffic is still a problem. It is often
better to walk and feel the atmosphere of the pretty little streets.

The 20th Century


As centuries go, the 20th century was one of the most
amazing; at times horrifying, always fascinating. Sure the
15th was pretty wild, with the Renaissance and Spanish
Inquisition in full flower, Gutenberg building his printing
press, Copernicus beginning to contemplate the solar system
and Columbus spreading the culture of Europe to the
Americas. And of course there was the 1st century, which if
only for the life and death of Jesus may have had the most
impact of any. But we who lived in the 20th can probably get
away with the claim that ours was one of the top four or five
of recorded history.
Let’s take stock for a moment. To name just a few random things
we did in a hundred years: we split the atom, invented jazz
and rock, launched airplanes and landed on the moon,
concocted a general theory of relativity, devised the
transistor and figured out how to etch millions of them on
tiny microchips, discovered penicillin and the structure of
DNA, fought down fascism and communism, developed
cinema and television, built highways and wired the
world…
Names such as: Gandhi, Churchill, Charlie Chaplin, Freud Einstein, Louis
Armstrong, Fleming, Beatles, Rodin, Martin Luter King, Helen Keller, Walt Disney and

CE Lourenço A. Galetti - Edirley Batista


PÁGINA 27
others make us proud of our century. But, on the other hand, names such as: Hitler,
Mussolini, Mao Zedong, Pol Pot, Lee Oswald make us feel horror.
The 20th century could be summed up and labeled in a handful of ways: the
century of freedom, the electronic century, the global century, the genocidal century, the
century of capitalism, the mass market century.
(From Time April 1998)

How to Win an Oscar
The 80th edition of the Academy Awards takes place on Sunday,
February 24th. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences
celebrates another year of magic and invention in the
cinema. Actors and actresses hope it will be the year
they win an Oscar. What is an Oscar? It is a gold statue
of a man, originally named an Award of Merit. An
Academy librarian, Margaret Herrick, saw the first
statue in 1926 and remarked, "Oh! It looks like my
Uncle Oscar!" The name remained, though it didn't
become official until 1939.

How do people win an Oscar?


First you must be nominated. The members of the Academy vote
to choose the nominees in each category. Actually, the members can
only make nominations in their own category. So actors nominate
actors, directors nominate directors and so
on. However, all members can vote for each
final award. There are about 25 categories
which include best film, best actor and best
actress, then there is best director, best
sound, best original screenplay, etc.
All the nominees are then invited to an
annual luncheon where actors and other
nominees answer journalists' questions, pose
for photographs and receive an Academy
Nominee Certificate. After this the serious
voting begins.
Global Company Pricewaterhouse
Coopers organise the voting: they send out
ballot cards to the 5,803 members and count
the votes. Only the partners of this company
know the results before the ceremony. The
winners' names are inside sealed envelopes which are not opened until
the moment when, with cameras running, the winners and losers learn
their fates.

What Is the ‘Academy’?


The American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences is a
non-profit organization. It was founded in 1927 to give the film industry
a place to share ideas and meet colleagues. The Awards ceremony is
only one of their activities. They also do valuable work in the area of
film preservation: transferring thousands of old Hollywood movies from
deteriorating negatives to modern, stable medium. They also publish

CE Lourenço A. Galetti - Edirley Batista


PÁGINA 35
trade magazines, hold annual student film awards, finance research
and maintain one of the best film libraries in the world.
Membership is by invitation only and consists of approximately
5,000 members. The annual membership fee is $100. Nominees are
always offered the chance to become members.

The gift
There were two men in a hospital room. One of them occupied the
bed near the window. He could sit up on his bed for one hour each
afternoon. The other man could not sit. They talked all the time. They
spoke of their wives and families, their homes, their jobs, their
vacations, everything.
Every afternoon, the man in the bed near the window would sit
and describe to the other man all the things he could see outside the
window. “There’s a park across the street from the hospital. There is a
lake in the park, with ducks and swans. Children are playing in the
park.”
The man in the other bed liked to listen to the descriptions. In
fact, he began to live for those moments. He would close his eyes and
imagine everything his friend was describing to him. One day, the man
described a parade passing in the street. Although he couldn’t hear the
band, he could imagine the parade.
One morning, the day nurse arrived to bring water for their baths
and saw that the man close to the window had died peacefully in his
sleep. She called the hospital attendants and told them to take the body
away. Later, the other man asked if he could be moved next to the
window. The nurse was happy to move him to the bed near the window.

CE Lourenço A. Galetti - Edirley Batista


PÁGINA 43
He was eager to look through the window and see the world with
his own eyes. He was shocked. There was only a blank wall outside.
He asked the nurse why his friend had described such wonderful
things when there was nothing but a wall outside. The nurse was
surprised and responded that the man was blind and could not even
see the wall.

WORDSEARCHES
Phrasal Verbs
Phrasal Verb ou Prepositional Verb
São locuções em inglês compostas de um verbo e uma preposição ou um
advérbio; traduzem um tom de linguagem informal, emotivo, podendo freqüentemente
ser classificados como gíria.
Os verbos preposicionados representam um sério e persistente problema ao nível
de vocabulário. Devem ser encarados como vocábulos independentes dos elementos que
os compõem e, portanto como uma palavra nova a ser assimilada, porque normalmente
a adição de uma preposição ao verbo altera substancialmente o seu significado original.
Exemplos: give = dar; give up = parar, largar de mão, desistir.
Além disso, phrasal verbs são compostos predominantemente com verbos
monossilábicos, enquanto que em prepositional verbs, o verbo é freqüentemente
bissilábico.
A principal diferença entre Phrasal Verbs e Prepositional Verbs é que este
não permite a colocação do objeto entre o verbo e sua preposição, enquanto aquele
exige colocação do objeto entre o verbo e a preposição sempre que o objeto for um
pronome.

Exemplos:
1. Phrasal Verb: They called up the man = They called the man up = They called
him up -- Eles chamaram o homem.
2. Prepositional Verb: They called on the man = They called on him -- Eles
visitaram o homem.

Finalmente, podemos classificar uma terceira categoria de multi-word verbs: os


phrasal-prepositional verbs, também chamados de three-word verbs por serem
compostos de um verbo, um advérbio e uma preposição. Estas locuções ocorrem
predominantemente em linguagem informal.
Embora o número de verbos preposicionados em inglês seja praticamente
ilimitado, o aprendiz de inglês que dominar cerca de 20 ou 30 dos mais comuns, dos
que ocorrem com mais freqüência, pode dar-se por satisfeito numa etapa inicial de seu
aprendizado.

Exemplos:
1. Phrasal-prepositional Verb: I broke up with girlfriend. - Eu briguei com minha
namorada.

Enjoy yourself
A large dog walks into a butcher shop, carrying a purse in his mouth. He puts the purse
down and sits in front of the meat case.
“What is it, boy?” the butcher jokingly asks. “Want to buy some meat?”
“Woof!” barks the dog.
“Hmm,” says the butcher. “What kind? Liver, bacon, steak...”
“Woof!” interrupts the dog.
“And how much steak? Half a pound, one pound...”
“Woof!” signals the dog.
The amazed butcher wraps up the meat and finds the money in the dog’s purse. As the
dog leaves, he decides to follow. The dog enters a building, climbs to the third floor and begins
scratching at a door. With that, the door swings open and an angry man starts shouting at the
dog.
“Stop!” yells the butcher. “He’s the most intelligent animal I’ve ever seen!”
“Intelligent?” counters the man. “This is the third time this week he’s forgotten his key.”

Saiba como estudar inglês para o vestibular
da Folha de S.Paulo

 A leitura de textos em inglês é a principal forma de estudar a matéria.


 Procure principalmente textos sobre temas atuais em revistas e jornais
estrangeiros

 Textos em português também podem ajudar, pois dão uma noção sobre assuntos
que podem ser tratados no vestibular, além de permitir o desenvolvimento da
capacidade de interpretação de uma forma geral
 Utilize sempre o dicionário para procurar as palavras que não conhece

 Tente contextualizar as palavras novas. Não adianta tentar decorar, por exemplo,
uma lista de "phrasal verbs" sem tentar montar orações e, assim, dar um sentido
para elas

 Não descuide da gramática. Mesmo sendo pouco cobrada, ela é importante para
a compreensão dos textos.

 Se você não tem o hábito de ler textos em inglês, comece por assuntos que de
seu interesse

 Se for estudar por meio da tecla SAP da TV ou por meio das legendas em inglês
de filmes em DVD, não assista passivamente, anote as palavras desconhecidas e
verifique no dicionário seus significados

 Se, na hora da prova, for cobrada uma palavra que você não conhece, não se
desespere. Tente entender o contexto e leia os enunciados das questões e as
alternativas, pois a tradução pode estar escrita na própria prova

 Mesmo que você tenha freqüentado por anos escolas de inglês e acha que sabe
muito bem a matéria, não deixe de estudar, pois há outros candidatos nessa
mesma situação. Um pouco de estudo a mais pode ser a diferença para a sua
aprovação.
