(ITA - 2005 - 1 FASE) (...) Languages have always died. As cultures have risen and fallen, so their languages have emerged and disappeared. We can get some sense of it following the appearance of written language, for we now have records (in various forms - inscriptions, clay tablets, documents) of dozens of extinct languages from classical times - Bithynian, Cilician, Pisidian, Phrygian, Paphlagonian, Etruscan, Sumerian, Elamite, Hittite... We know of some 75 extinct languages which have been spoken in Europe and Asia Minor. But the extinct languages of which we have some historical record in this part of the world must be only a fraction of those for which we have nothing. And when we extend our coverage to the whole world, where written records of ancient languages are largely absent, it is easy to see that no sensible estimate can be obtained about the rate at which languages have died in the past. We can of course make guesses at the size of the population in previous eras, and the likely size of communities, and (1on the assumption that each community would have had its own language) work out possible numbers of languages.(...)

(ITA - 2005 - 1 FASE) Hywel Rhys Thomas, 56, is an authority on Education. Holder of a PhD in Education from the University of Birmingham, he has worked as a lecturer, administrator and researcher in Europe and as a consultant in Africa and South America. Last September he took part in Education and Science as Strategies for National Development, an international seminar held in Brasilia organised by UNESCO and the Brazilian Ministry of Education. Dr.Thomas, who participated as a guest of the British Council, discussed his ideas with Link UK: (I) Link: ....................................................................... H. R. Thomas: Over the last 15 years, the United Kingdom has been a place where major reforms have been introduced into almost all parts of the education system. It has become a natural laboratory, where different methods have been employed. We have gone from a system with very great professional autonomy to one where there is much more direction. My presentation explored the issue of balance between autonomy and control. Link: What is the greatest challenge for Education in a country like Brazil? H. R. Thomas: Clearly, sufficient resources are a major challenge. It is also important to move towards more active learning. The leading economies of the 21st century will be ones where people are lifelong learners and the only way in which you become a lifelong learner is to learn how to learn. This must mean moving away from passive acquisition of knowledge to a model where there is more emphasis on analytical and critical skills. (adapted from Link UK. March/April/May/June,2004) Assinale a opo que contm a melhor pergunta para a lacuna (I).

(ITA - 2005 - 1 FASE )A questo 18 refere-se ao texto a seguir: North American Women Sweep Top Honors at Intel Competition For the first time in the history of the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair, the top three award winners were women. Each of the three high-school students won an Intel Foundation Young Scientist Award at the fair, held last May in Cleveland Ohio. Elena Glassman from Doylestown, Pennsylvania, Lisa Glukhovsky from New Milford, Connecticut, and Anila Madiraju from Montreal each won a $ 50 000 scholarship and a personal computer. For her project, Glukhovsky, a junior, used simultaneous images of near-Earth objects (asteroids) from two observatory sites and a computer spreadsheet she created to determine the distance from Earth to asteroids. Her results closely agreed with NASA predictions. Glassman, a junior, designed a compuler science project that used electrical signals from the brain To detect whether a person intends to make a left-handed movement. A potential application is to enable handicapped individuals to operate a computer. Madiraju, a senior, showed that a method involving the use of a type of RNA to target and kill cancerous cells is effective without the toxic side effects typically associated with anticancer drugs. This year, students from 36 countries competed for $ 3 million in scholarships and awards. Next years competition will be held in Portland, Oregon, in May. (Tweed, A. Physics Today. August 2003) Considere as seguintes asseres: I. A estudante Lisa Glukhovsky desenvolveu uma planilha que ser utilizada pela NASA para determinar a distncia entre a Terra e asterides. II.
