(EsPCEx - 2019) Leia o texto a seguir e responda s questes 54, 55 e 56. Teaching English in the Brazilian countryside In Brazil, countryside youth want to learn about new places, new cultures and people. However, they think their everyday lives are an obstacle to that, because they imagine that country life has nothing to do with other parts of the world, says Rafael Fonseca. Rafael teaches English in a language school in a cooperative coffee cultivation in Paraguau. His learners are the children of rural workers. Rafael tells us that the objective of the project being developed in the cooperative is to give the young people more opportunities of growth in the countryside, and that includes the ability to communicate with international buyers. In the future, our project may help overcome the lack of succession in countryside activities, because nowadays, field workers children become lawyers, engineers, teachers, and sometimes even doctors, but very rarely those children want to have a profession related to rural work, says Rafael. That happens, he adds, because their parents understand that life in the countryside can be hard work and they do not want to see their children running the same type of life that they have. Their children also believe that life in the country does not allow them to have contact with other parts of the world, meet other people and improve cultural bounds. The program intends to show them that by means of a second language they can travel, communicate with new people and meet new cultures as a means of promoting and selling what they produce in the country, and that includes receiving visitors in their workplace from abroad. Rafaels strategy is to contextualize the English language and keep learners up-to-date with what happens in the global market. Integrating relevant topics about countryside living can be transformative in the classroom. The local regional and cultural aspects are a great source of inspiration and learning not only for learners, but also for us all.

(EsPCEx - 2019) (Ttulo omitido propositalmente) Italian children have been told not to turn up to school unless they can prove they have been properly vaccinated. The deadline follows months of national debate over compulsory vaccination. The new law came amid a surge in measles cases - but Italian officials say vaccination rates have improved since it was introduced. Children must receive a range of mandatory immunisations before attending school. They include vaccinations for chickenpox, polio, measles, mumps, and rubella. Children up to the age of six years will be excluded from nursery and kindergarten without proof of vaccination under the new rules. Those aged between six and 16 cannot be banned from attending school, but their parents face fines if they do not complete the mandatory course of immunisations Italian media report that regional authorities are handling the situation in a number of different ways. In Bologna, the local authority has sent letters of suspension to the parents of some 300 children, and a total of 5,000 children do not have their vaccine documentation up to date. In other areas there have been no reported cases, while still others have been given a grace period of a few days beyond the deadline. The new law was passed to raise Italys plummeting vaccination rates from below 80% to the World Health Organisations 95% target.
