Questões de Inglês - UNESP | Gabarito e resoluções

(UNESP - 2019 - 2 FASE) Leia o texto para responder, em portugus, s questes 33, 34 e 36. Medieval Monsters: Terrors, Aliens, Wonders Monsters captivated the imagination of medieval men and women, just as they continue to fascinate us today. Drawing on the Morgans superb collection of illuminated manuscripts, this major exhibition, the first of its kind in North America, will explore the complex social role of monsters in the Middle Ages. Medieval Monsters will lead visitors through three sections based on the ways monsters functioned in medieval societies. Terrors explores how monsters enhanced the aura of those in power, be they rulers, knights, or saints. A second section on Aliens demonstrates how marginalized groups in European societies such as Jews, Muslims, women, the poor, and the disabled were further alienated by being figured as monstrous. The final section, Wonders, considers a group of strange beauties and frightful anomalies that populated the medieval world. Whether employed in ornamental, entertaining, or contemplative settings, these fantastic beings were meant to inspire a sense of marvel and awe in their viewers. Medieval Monsters: Terrors, Aliens, Wonders runs from June 8 to September 23, 2018 at The Morgan Library Museum. (www.themorgan.org, s/d. Adaptado.) Leia o texto para responder, em portugus, s questes 35 e 36. Medi-evil: the monstrous middle ages Monsters are still everywhere. Godzilla keeps stomping through silver-screen cities, zombies lurch through eight seasons of the TV series The Walking Dead and the vampires of Twilight nibble necks across thousands of pages of the book series by Stephanie Meyer. But those looking for some historical context should head to the Morgan Library and Museum in New York to see around 70 works (such as illuminated manuscripts) from the 9th to the 16th century that show how ogres of the imagination have always inspired terror and wonder. In a time when the distant was unknowable, they filled the gaps. Almost always from afar, the monster was a substitute for those perceived to stray from the norm. Keep your eyes peeled for a perennial medieval favourite, the Blemmyae: disgusting headless humanoids with their faces transplanted onto their chests. These were quite possibly the inspiration for Guillermo Del Toros Pale Man in the film Pans Labyrinth (2006) a horrifying fellow whose eyeballs peer out abjectly from his clawed hands.

Surprisingly, the answer to this isnt as simple as being a morning or a night person. New research has shown that certain times of the day are best for completing specific tasks, and listening to your bodys natural clock may help you to accomplish more in 24 hours. Science suggests that the best time for our natural peak productivity is late morning. Our body temperatures start to rise just before we wake up in the morning and continue to increase through midday, Steve Kay, a professor of molecular and computational biology at the University of Southern California toldThe Wall Street Journal. This gradual increase in body temperature means that our working memory, alertness, and concentration also gradually improve, peaking at about mid morning. Our alertness tends to dip after this point, but one study suggested that midday fatigue may actually boost our creative abilities. For a 2011 study, 428 students were asked to solve a series of two types of problems, requiring either analytical or novel thinking. Results showed that their performance on the second type was best at non-peak times of day when they were tired. As for the age where our brains are at peak condition, science has long held that fluid intelligence, or the ability to think quickly and recall information, peaks at around age 20. However, a 2015 study revealed that peak brain age is far more complicated than previously believed and concluded that there are about 30 subsets of intelligence, all of which peak at different ages for different people. For example, the study found that raw speed in processing information appears to peak around age 18 or 19, then immediately starts to decline, but short-term memory continues to improve until around age 25, and then begins to drop around age 35,Medical Xpressreported. The ability to evaluate other peoples emotional states peaked much later, in the 40s or 50s. In addition, the study suggested that out our vocabulary may peak as late as our 60ss or 70s. Still, while working according to your bodys natural clock may sound helpful, its important to remember that these times may differ from person to person. On average, people can be divided into two distinct groups: morning people tend to wake up and go to sleep earlier and to be most productive early in the day. Evening people tend to wake up later, start more slowly and peak in the evening. If being a morning or evening person has been working for you the majority of your life, it may be best to not fix whats not broken. (Dana Dovey. www.medicaldaily.com, 08.08.2016. Adaptado.)

When it comes to politics and fake news, facts arent enough The myth that vaccines cause autism has persisted, even though the facts paint an entirely different story. In todays political climate, it sometimes feels like wecant even agree on basic facts. We bombard each other with statistics and figures, hoping that more data will make a difference. A progressive person might show you the sameclimate change graphs over and over while a conservative person might point to the trillions of dollars of growing national debt. Were left wondering, Why cant they just see? Its so obvious! Certain myths are so pervasive that no matter how many experts disprove them, they only seem to grow in popularity. Theres no shortage of serious studies showing no link between autism and vaccines, for example, but these are no match for an emotional appeal to parents worried for theiryoung children. Tali Sharot, a cognitive neuroscientist at University College London, studies how our minds work and how we process new information. In her upcoming book, The Influential Mind,she explores why we ignore facts and how we can get people to actually listen to the truth. Tali shows that were open to new information but only if it confirms our existing beliefs. We find ways to ignore facts that challenge our ideals. And as neuroscientist Bahador Bahrami and colleagues have found, we weigh all opinions as equally valid, regardless of expertise. So, having the data on your side is not always enough. For better or for worse, Sharot says, emotions may be the key to changing minds. (Shankar Vedantam. www.npr.org. Adaptado.) De acordo com o texto, as pessoas
