Repeated words – se uma palavra aparece várias vezesno texto, isto significa que ela é importante para acompreensão do mesmo.
Typographical evidences – são símbolos, letrasmaiúsculas, negrito, itálico, etc., que são dicas úteissobre o texto.
Dictionary – o dicionário deve ser utilizado comoúltimo recurso para se descobrir o significado de umapalavra ou expressão desconhecida.
Skimming – leitura rápida para ter-se uma idéiacentral do texto.
Scanning – leitura com o objetivo de encontraralgumas informações específicas no texto.
Selectivity – leitura seletiva, isto é, selecionar ostrechos onde se quer encontrar uma determinadainformação (parágrafos, por exemplo).
A professora Rosangela Ramos nos apresenta este material de forma integrada. Cada unidade tem um textopara ser lido, desfrutado, estudado e analisado sob várias perspectivas.
Primeiramente, cada texto traz um tema atual e universal que leva ao desenvolvimento do pensamento críticopor meio de exercícios que trabalham os três níveis de compreensão do leitor: nível literal, nível inferencial enível apreciativo.
Segundo, pode-se notar que o vocabulário é trabalhado por intermédio de glossários e contextos que facilitama compreensão e aquisição dos mesmos.
Em terceiro lugar, este material não deixa de lado a gramática, trabalhando-a dentro dos paradigmas lingüísticosestruturalista e pragmático. As atividades sugeridas pretendem desenvolver a consciência metalingüísticamediante exercícios que levam ao aprendizado de estruturas em contextos oracionais e textuais. Agregam-se aisso as informações referentes às categorias gramaticais estudadas em cada unidade.
UNIDADE I
ConscientizaçãoConscientizaçãoConscientizaçãoConscientizaçãoConscientização
Prediction – significa inferir o conteúdo de um textoatravés de seu conhecimento prévio sobre o tema(background); através do contexto semântico (palavrasde um mesmo grupo, por exemplo: hospital, nurse,doctor, ambulance); contexto lingüístico (pistasgramaticais); contexto não-lingüístico (gravuras,gráficos, tabelas, números, etc.); conhecimento sobrea estrutura do texto (layout, título, subtítulo, divisãode parágrafos, etc).
Cognates – são palavras de origem grega ou latinabem parecidas com as do português. Ex.: different/diferente, infection/infecção.
Obs.: Atenção com os falsos cognatos. Ex: "pretend"não significa pretender, mas sim "fingir"; é importanteobservar se a palavra se encaixa no contexto.
Ler é um ato intelectual complexo. Essa complexidade aumenta ainda mais quando estamos lendo num idiomadiferente do nosso. Para facilitar o trabalho nesta unidade, solicito bastante atenção às estratégias de leituraque indicamos a seguir:

Indicação
Algumas palavras que aparecem nos textos demandam um pouco mais de atenção para inferi-las e reconhecê-las durante a leitura. São as chamadas palavras derivadas, ou seja, palavras que apresentam componentesdenominados genericamente de afixos, que podem ser prefixos ou sufixos. O conhecimento da formação daspalavras é muito útil, sem dúvida, para sua compreensão. Isto significa que é necessário reconhecer os afixos,mais comumente usados na língua que se quer aprender e, naturalmente, seu significado.

Computers are electronic machines that process information. They are capable of communicating with theuser, of doing five kinds of arithmetic operations, and of making three kinds of decisions. However, they areincapable of thinking. They accept data and instructions as input, and after processing the information, theyoutput the results.
When talking about computers, both hardware and software need to be considered. The first refers to theactual machinery whereas the second refers to the programs that control and coordinate the activities of thehardware.
The first computer was built in 1930 but since then computer technology has evolved a great deal. There arethree different kinds of computers in use today: the mainframe, the minicomputer and the microcomputer.However, the dividing line between these has become blurred; a modern micro is often powerful as a mainframewas tem years ago. All three have one thing in common – they operate quickly and accurately in solvingproblems.
Machine – máquina
User – usuário
Data – dados
Input – entrada de dados
Output - saída dos resultados
Hardware – partes eletrônicas e mecânicas de umsistema de computador
Software – programas associados com a operaçãode um computador
Whereas – enquanto
The first – o primeiro
The second – o segundo
Has evolved – tem se desenvolvido
Mainframe – computador de grande porte
Minicomputer – computador multiusuário projetadopara atender às necessidades de uma pequenacompanhia ou departamento.
Microcomputer – qualquer computador que tenhaa unidade aritmética e lógica (ALU) e a unidade decontrole em um único circuito integrado denominadomicroprocessador.Blurred – obscurecer(-se)

39SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYSCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYSCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYSCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYSCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
The goal of science is to understand, to put things in order. The goal of technology is to create, to apply thatscientific understanding to some purpose. And no purpose has greater demand, and greater reward, thaneducation.
Through history, advances in technology have been applied to learning. Printing generated the demand foruniversal education; the phonograph, the photography and television brought a record of sound and motioninto the classroom; the space race spurred increased interest in sciences and engineering; and the computerhas become a tool for bringing all of this together in a wide variety of disciplines. In advanced countries suchas Japan and Germany, children begin to work on computers from a very early age. The uses of this fabulousinvention in education are limitless.
But the question lots of people are asking themselves around the world is: Will computers substitute forteachers? The answer is: No, they won’t. Machines will never replace teachers: the process of transferringknowledge and inspiring achievement will always be a human one. But technology has already proven its valuein expanding opportunities for learning – by gathering and presenting information in creative ways, by makingsome of the routine tasks of drill and testing more interesting and by simulating events to provide people withrealistic problem-solving challenges. If scientists will improve this process, generations to come will certainlylive far better than us.
Before investing in the high technology employed by computers, all advanced countries first invested in thehuman being. In these countries teachers are respected and incentivated. Had some Third World countriesdone the same, they would have achieved a higher degree of development.

The 1931 statue stands 125 feet tall, weights 1.145 tons and contains a 92 foottunnel in the outstretched arms. A visit to Corcovado can be made by car via a paved road through TijucaNational Park or on a Swiss-made funicular, which ascends through dense jungle with sporatic glimpses of thecity slipping away to the ocean. Interestingly, this four kilometer roadbed dates from 1885, when a smallwooden train puffed up the mountain with the assistance of steam. Automobiles are permitted on the Corcovadoroad until 8 p.m. Estrada de Ferro Corcovado operates cog trains every 30 minutes from 8:30 a .m. until 6:30 p.m.;the ride takes approximately 20 minutes.

A daring English woman scaled the rock in 1817 and planted theEnglish flag. It has been removed and replaced many times by other climbers. In 1912 a German-made cable carfirst carried visitors to Urca and in 1913 it was extended to Sugar Loaf. The bubble-like, panoramic 75-passengerItalian cars were installed in 1972 from which everyone has a good view. The trip to the top is in two stages, thefirst to Urca Mountain, 770 feet high, with playground equipment for children, an outdoor theater, a restaurant,a discotheque and an opportunity to record your visit on a picture plate.

Mark lived in Vancouver, British Colombia. He was a very nice boy but he had an obsessive fear of germs. Hewashed his hands and body hundred of times a day. He cleaned his shoes every time he stepped outside hishouse. He did not go to school and he did not have a job. He just helped his mother at home.
At that time, all psychiatrists agreed that the best way to control this disease was a surgery to remove a partof the left lobe of the brain. Nowadays, there are effective drugs to control this kind of disease.
One day Mark was depressed and told his mother he wanted to die. His mother did not think it was serious andanswered: "Go and shoot yourself". Mark listened and decided. He immediately walked to the basement,opened his mouth and after that his mother heard the shot.
Miraculously, Mark did not die. The bullet completely destroyed the part of his brain where the problem was,but it did not affect any other part of the organ.

45WHEN DID AIDS BEGIN?WHEN DID AIDS BEGIN?WHEN DID AIDS BEGIN?WHEN DID AIDS BEGIN?WHEN DID AIDS BEGIN?
The year was 1959. Location: the central African city of Leopoldville, now called Kinshasa, shortly before thewaves of violent rebellion that followed the liberation of the Belgian Congo. A seemingly healthy man walkedinto a hospital clinic to give blood for a western-backed study of blood diseases. He walked away and wasnever heard from again. Doctors analyzed his sample, froze it in a text tube and forgot about it. A quarter-centurylater, in the mid-1980s, researches studying the growing AIDS epidemic took a second look at the blood anddiscovered that it contained HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
And not just any HIV. The Leopoldville sample is the oldest specimen of the AIDS virus ever isolated and maynow help solve the mystery of how and when the virus made the leap from animals (monkeys or chimpanzees)to humans, according to a report published last week in Nature. Dr. David Ho, director of the Aaron DiamondAIDS Research Center in New York city and one of the study’s authors, says a careful genetic analysis of thesample’s DNA pushes the putative origin of the AIDS epidemic back at least a decade, to the early ‘50s or eventhe ‘40s.
