(UFU - 2016 - 2 FASE) Im really enjoying life in a foreign country, however there is always the odd home comfort I really miss (usually food). The other day I was craving nothing more than a good old English breakfast so I searched high and low in the French supermarket to stock up on ingredients to make one. A traditional full English breakfast, also commonly known as a fry up, consists of the following: eggs (either fried or scrambled); bacon; sausage; toast or fried bread; baked beans; hash browns; tomato; mushrooms. This is usually served with ketchup on the side, a glass of orange juice and of course a big cup of tea. Often people are mistaken that this is the kind of thing British people eat at the start of every day but that is rarely the case. A full English is usually something wed have as a special treat at the weekend for a lazy morning relaxing with friends. I dont think I could have one every day, just imagine eating all that every morning! Disponvel em: http://learnenglishteens.britishcouncil.org. Acesso em: dez. 2015. RESPONDA A QUESTO EM INGLS.

(UFU - 2016 - 2 FASE)Can internationalisation be a negative force? Brendan OMalley Universities around the world are continuing to internationalise at an ever faster pace. They want their students to have trans-continental horizons when it comes to the world of work, and are hungry to be involved in worldwide research collaborations. So its only natural that universities are keen to develop international partnerships with other universities. Many value internationalisation as a way to improve education and research locally, through knowledge and technology exchanges, access to world-class education, international benchmarking of methods and teaching practices, education diplomacy, and interaction with other countries. But is this always so? If institutions from emerging countries partner with those from rich countries, will Western models and assumptions, or even the use of English, dominate, unbalancing the relationship and deepening the disadvantages for the weaker partner? Recognising and addressing some of the potentially negative sides of internationalisation will be an area of debate at this years Going Global 2016, the open forum for global education leaders hosted by the British Council in Cape Town, South Africa, on 3-5 May.

(UFU - 2016 - 2 FASE)A recent combined report from the British Council and Oxford University states that there is a fast-moving worldwide shift from English being taught as a foreign language (EFL) to English being the medium of instruction (EMI) for academic subjects. Growing out of the bilingual education movement of the 1950s in Europe and Canada, the pace of implementation today is rapidly advancing, being referred to by some as a potential pandemic or revolution. In 2002 there were over 800 EMI programmes operating in Europe alone. Today there are well over 6400 and a growing number in various other traditionally English-as-a-foreign-language countries around the world. French universities, for example, are now legally allowed to offer a limited number of classes in English and Italys Politecnico di Milano began teaching all of its graduate classes in English in 2014. In short, the move to use English as the lingua franca of higher education globally is seen as the single most significant current trend in internationalising higher education. In Asia too, universities in countries like China, Taiwan, Korea Vietnam, Indonesia and Malaysia are increasingly adopting English as a way to gain access to cutting-edge knowledge, enhance national competitiveness in innovation and knowledge production and, naturally, as a strategy for improving graduates English proficiency. Japan has also increasingly begun to experiment with EMI classes, although originally for slightly different reasons. Disponvel em: http://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ1060798.pdf.

(UFU - 2016 - 1 FASE) Teen Texting: Girls versus Boys By Victoria Stern A new study from the American Psychological Association evaluated how 211 girls and 192 boys communicated via text and found notable gender differences in overall behavior and compulsive use: Teenage girls use texting for social connection, whereas boys mostly use it to convey information. Boys and girls send about the same number of texts every day, but girls are more likely to become compulsive texters. Teenage girls who compulsively text see a steeper decline in their grades than their compulsive male counterparts. The researchers suggest the social content of girls messages may be more likely to distract them from their academic tasks. Compulsive texting also appears to affect girls mental health more than boys, perhaps because girls are more prone to text about negative feelings and to ruminate on those feelings.

(UFU - 2016 - 1 FASE) Oscar-Winning Movies By Rachel Swalin Citizen Kane may be considered one of the greatest films ever made, yet this Orson Welles grand tale of a newspaper magnates rise and fall lost out on Best Picture in 1942. Instead, the prize went to How Green Was My Valley, a drama depicting the struggles of a Welsh mining family. As director, co-author, producer, and star, Welles had every hand in the making of Citizen Kane, but his controversial film, thought to be based on media mogul William Randolph Hearst, managed to alienate him from Hollywood. How Green Was My Valley, from director John Ford, proved to be a more sentimental favorite of the time. Disponvel em:https://www.rd.com/culture/surprising-oscar-winning-movies/ .

(UFU - 2016 - 1 FASE) The most effective way to protect yourself from the Zika virus is to prevent mosquito bites By Kelsey Kloss Many Americans are relatively protected from the Zika virus at the moment because mosquitoes die or go into hibernation in cold winter weather. When temperatures rise to 50 or 60 degrees Fahrenheit, however, mosquitoes can reappear and spread disease. The Aedes mosquitos feed during the day and fly into houses for shade living and reproducing very close to people. Just one tablespoon of water can serve as a mosquito breeding ground and produce up to 300 mosquitoes. The insects can breed in the bottom of a glass in the bathroom (like one you use to brush your teeth with) or in a film of water next to the sink. Eliminate standing water throughout the home, including in flower pots, bottles, and accumulating garbage. Have a pool? No need to drain mosquitos are deterred by the chlorine that keeps the pool clean and safe for swimming. Disponvel em:https://www.rd.com/health/wellness/avoid-zika-mosquito-bites/ .

(UFU - 2016 - 1 FASE) Archbishop of Toronto speaks out against assisted dying Dying is simply not the same as being killed, Cardinal Thomas Collins, the Archbishop of Toronto, said in a video, which the Archdiocese posted earlier this week to YouTube. We are grateful for physicians and nurses and others who offer medical assistance to patients who are dying. But it is never justified for them to kill. Collins says hes shocked by a parliamentary committees recommendations that would force doctors to at least refer people to a physician willing to help someone end their life, including, in some cases, minors and the mentally ill.

(UFU - 2016 - 1 FASE) Since the cold-blooded butterfly cant regulate its body temperature, the insect is particularly sensitive to changes in weather. Rain and wind can damage its wings, and cold temperatures can render it literally unable to move its wings. Butterflies have various methods for maintaining an ideal body temperature of around 85 degrees Fahrenheit: they cluster together, hibernate in trees and other structures, shiver by flapping their wings, and bask in the sun.

(UFU - 2016 - 1 FASE) Come September, up to 300 million monarch butterflies in southern Canada and the United States begin their annual migration to California and central Mexico, roosting along the way on golf courses and beaches in Florida and California.
