(UNICAMP - 2019 - 1 FASE) Largest prime number discovered: with more than 23m digits Known simply as M77232917, the figure is arrived at by calculating two to the power of 77,232,917 and subtracting one, leaving a gargantuan string of 23,249,425 digits. The result is nearly one million digits longer than the previous record holder discovered in January 2016. The number belongs to a rare group of so-called Mersenne prime numbers, named after the 17th century French monk Marin Mersenne. Like any prime number, a Mersenne prime is divisible only by itself and one, but is derived by multiplying twos together over and over before taking away one. The previous record-holding number was the 49th Mersenne prime ever found, making the new one the 50th. Adaptado de Ian Sample, Largest prime number discovered: with more than 23m digits. The Guardian, 04/ 01/2018. Considerando as informaes contidas no excerto anterior, qual dos nmeros a seguir um primo de Mersenne?

(UNICAMP -2019 - 1 FASE) We raise girls to cater to the fragile egos of men. We teach girls do shrink themselves, to make themselves smaller. We tell girls You can have ambition, but not too much. You should aim to be successful, but not too successful, otherwise you will threaten the man. () We teach girls shame Close your legs, cover yourself!. We make them feel as though by being born female, theyre already guilty of something. And so, girls grow up to be women Who cannot see they have desire. They grow up to be women who silence themselves. They grow up to be women Who cannot say what they truly think. And they grow up and this is the worst thing we do to girls to be women Who turn pretense into an art form. Adaptado da palestra We should all be feminists, 15/07/2009.

(UNICAMP - 2019 - 1 FASE) Yes, Im Italian but Im not loud, I dont gesticulate and Im not good with pizza Elena Ferrante I love my country, but I have no patriotic spirit and no national pride. Whats more, I digest pizza poorly, I eat very little spaghetti, I dont speak in a loud voice, I dont gesticulate, I hate all mafias, I dont exclaim Mamma mia! National characteristics are simplifications that should be contested. Being Italian, for me, begins and ends with the fact that I speak and write in the Italian language. Put that way it doesnt seem like much, but really its a lot. A language is a compendium of the history, geography,material and spiritual life, the vices and virtues, not only of those who speak it, but also of those who have spoken it through the centuries. When I say that Im Italian because I write in Italian, I mean that Im fully Italian in the only way that Im willing to attribute to myself a nationality. I dont like the other ways, especially when they become nationalism, chauvinism, and imperialism. Adaptado de Elena Ferrante, Yes, Im Italian but Im not loud, I dont gesticulate and Im not good with pizza, The Guardian, 24/02/2018. Transcrevem-se, a seguir, versos de canes brasileiras e de um poema de Vincius de Moraes. Assinale a alternativa que melhor exemplifica as afirmaes de Elena Ferrante.

(UNICAMP - 2019 - 1 FASE) Love is not all By Edna St. Vincent Millay Love is not all: It is not meat nor drink Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain; Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink And rise and sink and rise and sink again; Love cannot fill the thickened lung with breath, Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone; Yet many a man is making friends with death Even as I speak, for lack of love alone. It well may be that in a difficult hour, Pinned down by need and moaning for release, Or nagged by want past resolutions power, I might be driven to sell your love for peace, Or trade the memory of this night for food. It may well be. I do not think I would. Disponvel em https://www.poemhunter.com/. Acessado em 28/05/2018. De acordo com o poema,

(UNICAMP - 2019 - 1 FASE) Genetic Fortune-Telling One day, babies will get DNA report cards at birth. These reports will offer predictions about their chances of suffering a heart attack or cancer, of getting hooked on tobacco, and of being smarter than average.Though the new DNA tests offer probabilities, not diagnoses, they could greatly benefit medicine. For example, if women at high risk for breast cancer got more mammograms and those at low risk got fewer, those exams might catch more real cancers and set off fewer false alarms. The trouble is, the predictions are far from perfect. What if someone with a low risk score for cancer puts off being screened, and then develops cancer anyway? Polygenic scores are also controversial because they can predict any trait, not only diseases. For instance, they can now forecast about 10 percent of a persons performance on IQ tests. But how will parents and educators use that information? (Adaptado de Derek Brahney, Genetic Fortune-Telling.

An investigation into the incident is under way. Passengers boarding the flight reportedly saw an elderly woman throwing coins at the engine for blessings from the middle of the boarding staircase and alerted the crew. Ground staff said the woman, who appeared to be about 80 and had limited mobility, was accompanied by her husband, daughter and son-in-law. The captain was quoted as saying the metal, if sucked up by the engine, could have caused serious damage, including failure. The flight was later given a green light and took off at 5.52pm, more than five hours late. It is scheduled to arrive in Guangzhou at 8.14pm.

(UNICAMP - 2018 - 1 FASE) ZOMBIE NEUROSCIENCE I dont know if cockroaches dream, but I imagine if they do, jewel wasps feature prominently in their nightmares. These small, solitary tropical wasps are of little concern to us humans; after all, they dont manipulate our minds so that they can serve us up as willing, living meals to their newborns, as they do to unsuspecting cockroaches. The story is simple, if grotesque: the female wasp controls the minds of the cockroaches she feeds to her offspring, taking away their sense of fear or will to escape their fate. What turns a once healthy cockroach into a mindless zombie its venom. Not just any venom, either: a specific venom that acts like a drug, targeting the cockroachs brain.

(UNICAMP - 2018 - 1 FASE) Olaudah Equiano (1745 1797) foi um escritor abolicionista africano do sculo XVIII que viveu na pele os horrores da escravido nas Amricas. Leia o trecho abaixo, retirado da sua autobiografia . Hitherto I had thought only slavery dreadful; but the state of a free negro appeared to me now equally so at least, and in some respects even worse, for they live in constant alarm for their liberty; and even this is but nominal, for they are universally insulted and plundered without the possibility of redress; for such is the equity of the West Indian laws, that no free negros evidence will be admitted in their courts of justice. In this situation is it surprising that slaves, when fairly treated, should prefer even the misery of slavery to such a mockery of freedom?

(UNICAMP - 2018 - 1 FASE) Should Twitter entertain millions with public arguments? Comedian Janey Godleys tweets of a couples train-bound row raise questions of how to protect our privacy in public places. If the troubles of the two travellers had made it on to a newspaper first rather than a comedians Twitter feed, would we be so relaxed about loss of privacy? I think perhaps not. Social media has done so much for freedom of expression, it would be cruel if it actually leads to less social freedom for fear of having our every misstep, angry word or misbehaviour broadcast there for all to see.
