(UFPR - 2023) The following text refers to questions 83 to 85. Kevin Adkins almost kicked the Ice Age skull to the side because he thought it was just debris from a recent flood then he saw that it had teeth. When Kevin Adkins took his father-in-law, Tony Hager, on his first turkey hunt on May 8, 2022, the two West Virginians spotted an animal skull in a Putnam County creek. Covered in mud from a flood that had hit the region two days earlier, it was initially unidentifiable. So Adkins took it home and later learned that it belonged to an 11,000-year-old giant sloth. While 36-year-old Adkins had hunted turkeys in Putnam County plenty of times before, he had never come across something like this. Trudging through the muddy wilderness, the Red House resident and his father-in-law were primarily interested in nabbing some wild birds when they encountered the relic. We were running and gunning for toms, Adkins told Outdoor Life. Wed worked a gobbler for about 30 minutes, then the bird moved off, so we picked up and headed up the creek. I looked down in the middle of the creek as we crossed it and saw a big blob of something I thought was a root ball, so I almost kicked it away. But I noticed something different about it and looked closer, Adkins went on. Thats when I saw some molar teeth, so I picked it up. Determined not to let the potential find of a lifetime distract from his turkey hunt, Adkins propped the skull next to the creek and forged ahead. When he and Hager concluded their hunt later that morning, they retrieved the skull and carried it home. [My wife] thought it was a cow skull because it was so big, Adkins said. The skull weighed about 30 pounds and sported tufts of hair. It had four molar teeth on either side of its jawbone. But my father-in-law said no, it was something very different, continued Adkins. Thats when we started searching the internet, sending photos to family and friends, and then I posted it on social media. That really got things moving along with trying to ID what Id found. (Available in: https://allthatsinteresting.com/tag/news.) According to the text, it is correct to say that the skull both men found as they were hunting turkeys was of:

(UFPR - 2023) The following text refers to questions 86 and 87. I survived two sandstorms and nearly ran out of water in the Sahara Desert, says man who biked from London to Lagos Kunle Adeyanju is a self-confessed daredevil who has climbed Mount Kilimanjaro twice and cycled from Lagos to Accra over three days. But it is his latest adventure that is creating a buzz after he successfully completed a motorcycle ride from London to Lagos. The journey took 41 days as he traveled 13,000 kilometers (8,080 miles) through 11 countries and 31 cities. Adeyanju embarked on the trip partly to raise money for polio, in conjunction with the Rotary Club of Ikoyi Metro, Nigeria, where he is president-elect. He says he chose the cause because of a childhood friend who suffered from the debilitating illness. Polio is a personal thing for me... as a boy, my best friend had polio and when we go swimming or play football, he could do none of those things. Sadly, my friend passed away some years back. If he hadnt had polio, he probably will still be alive today. (Available in: https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/kunle-adeyanju-london-to-lagos-lgs-cmd-intl/index.html.)

(UFPR - 2023) Consider the following text: (CNN) Researchers at Yale University say they have been able to restore blood circulation and other cellular functions in pigs a full hour after the animals deaths, suggesting that cells dont die as quickly as scientists had assumed. With more research, the cutting-edge technique could someday potentially help preserve human organs for longer, allowing more people to receive transplants. The researchers used a system they developed called OrganEx, which enables oxygen to be recirculated throughout a dead pigs body, preserving cells and some organs after a cardiac arrest.

A clash of trends screamed for our attention while others were so quietly cool theyre still sartorial staples in our collective wardrobes: slip dresses, Doc Martens, chokers, crop tops.

(UFPR - 2022- 1 fase) The following text refers to questions 01 to 03. The surprising history of Indias vibrant sari tradition South Asian women have draped themselves in colorful silks and cottons for eons. The ways theyre made and worn are dazzling and diverse. The word sari means strip of cloth in Sanskrit. But for the Indian women and a few men who have been wrapping themselves in silk, cotton, or linen for millennia, these swaths of fabric are more than just simple garments. Theyre symbols of national pride, ambassadors for traditional (and cutting-edge) design and craftsmanship, and a prime example of the rich differences in Indias 29 states. The sari both as symbol and reality has filled the imagination of the subcontinent, with its appeal and its ability to conceal and reveal the personality of the person wearing it, says Delhi-based textile historian Rta Kapur Chishti, author of Saris of India: Tradition and Beyond and co-founder of Taanbaan, a fabric company devoted to reviving and preserving traditional Indian spinning and weaving methods. The first mention of saris (alternately spelled sarees) is in the Rig Veda, a Hindu book of hymns dating to 3,000 B.C.; draped garments show up on Indian sculptures from the first through sixth centuries, too. What Delhi-based textile historian Rta Kapur Chishti calls the magical unstitched garment is ideally suited to Indias blazingly hot climate and the modest-dress customs of both Hindu and Muslim communities. Saris also remain traditional for women in other South Asian countries including Pakistan, Bangladesh, and Nepal. (Available in: https://www.nationalgeographic.com/travel/photography/the-story-of-the-sari-in-india/.) Sari, which in Sanskrit means strip of cloth, represents more than a piece of clothing in India. In relation to the different meaning(s) attributed to the sari, consider the following affirmatives: 1. It stands for both up-to-date and conventional patterns. 2. People wear it in different ways. 3. Both men and women can wear it. 4. People cannot avoid an arrogant attitude when they put it on. Mark the affirmative(s) that is/are present in the text.
