Se o “y” vier após uma vogal, acrescenta-se apenas o

from the tree machine. The tree machine makes the
oxygen that we need to take from the air.
Industrial machines pollute the air. Trees do not
pollute the air. On the contrary, they clean it. The
industrial machines make a lot of noise. The tree machine
does not make any noise. On the contrary, it filters noise.
The tree machine does not need coal, oil, gas or
electricity to work. Its fuel comes from water, sun light
and carbon dioxide. When a tree dies, it helps new plants.
The combination of water, insects, and micro-organisms
in the soil causes the decomposition of a tree. When a tree
dies, it gives nutrients to the soil for other trees use as
fuel. So, the tree does not die, really. It recycles its
substance for the benefit of all animal and plant life.
Please remember: the tree is your friend. Do not
destroy it.

The Himalayas are the best-known mountain range
in the world and Mt Everest, with a height of 8,880
meters, is the highest mountain. Since Edmund Hillary
made the first ascent in 1953, mountaineers from many
countries have managed to climb to the peak. Normally
they need to take oxygen cylinders to help them breathe

themselves to each other. It’s a dangerous sport and many
people have lost their lives, not just in the way up but
during the descent as well.

Michael Schumacher
Michael Schumacher was born in HurtHermuhlheim, Germany, on 3 January 1969. When he
was only four years old he was given a toy kart, and later
a lawnmower engine was fitted to it. Schumacher’s

use the local kart track.
At the age of 15, he won his first major
championship – the German Karting championship. When
he was nineteen, he was driving racing cars and
immediately began winning. At the age of 22, he took part
in his first Grand Prix, driving a Jordan, but shortly after
that he joined the Benneton team.

Fast Food
The American fast-food culture dates back to the
period after the Second World War. During the War, the
Americans had developed the production of dehydrated,
tinned and powdered food on an industrial scale; most of
this was sent abroad to feed troops at the front.
When the War ended, the USA found itself with a
massive production potential for this type of food but no
starving soldiers to eat it – so the manufacturers began to
market it to the general public. Housewives started baking
cakes out of packets and made sure they kept up their
stock of powdered milk.
The present scenario is well known: American fast
food and fizzy drinks like Coca-Cola and Pepsi are being

Para formarmos o plural dos substantivos em
Inglês precisamos conhecer as regras e saber usá-las

(ch), (sh), (x) e (z) :
Ex.: Bus - buses

Beach – beaches
Topaz – topazes
Dish – dishes
Brush – brushes
Mas atenção: há alguns substantivos terminados em “ch”,
com som de “k”, que receberão apenas “s” no plural.
Veja: Epoch –epochs

3.
Aos substantivos terminados em (Y) , precedido de
vogal , usa-se apenas “s”.

vogal , usa-se apenas “s”.
Ex.: Radio – radios
Bamboo – bamboos

9. Há alguns substantivos que não possuem plural em
Inglês, portanto, o verbo que os acompanha é sempre
usado no singular.
Ex:

Mas se o substantivo terminar em (O) , precedido de
consoante, acrescentaremos “es” .
Ex.: Hero – heroes

My luggage isn’t heavy.
Algumas palavras de origem grega e latina, recebem

A fertilized egg is nourished and protected as it
develops from an embryo to a fetus during 40 weeks of
pregnancy. The placenta, a mass of blood vessels
implanted into the uterus lining, delivers nourishment and
oxygen, and removes waste through the umbilical cord.
Meanwhile, the fetus lies snugly in its amniotic sac, a bag
of fluid that protects it against any sudden jolts. In the last
weeks of the pregnancy, the growing fetus turns head
down: a baby ready to be born.

PLAY BALL!!!
It is hard to believe that a game as fast and
exciting as soccer had its origin in a religious ceremony
several thousand years ago in Egypt. At that time, the
contest was between teams of pretty girls who had first
taken part in a beauty contest and parade. After putting on
armor, they divided into teams and fought with sticks over
a round stone. The stone is believed to have represented
the sun, or possibly the head of the goddess of agriculture,
and this use of the round stone is thought to be the origin
of all ball games.
The custom of teams competing for control of a
round object, or ball, first spread across North Africa, the
Arabic countries, and Persia. Over the years, it also spread
to the whole world, and probably the most popular team
sports today are soccer, baseball, and basketball.
Perhaps sports, like music, could be called an
international language. Certainly they have done much to
bring people from different countries together and to
improve understanding among them. Through friendly
competition, players and spectators alike have learned that
people everywhere are very much the same, and that
everyone appreciates good sportsmanship and fair play.

SOME EASY WAYS TO MAKE FRIENDS
1. It’s hard to make friends if you stay home all the time.
Get out of the house and do things that will put you in
touch with other people. Join a club or play a sport.
Attend meetings of neighborhood associations or other
groups. It’s easier to make friends when you have similar
interests.
2. Learn from people at school or work who seem to have
lots of friends. Observe how they make and keep friends.
Don’t imitate all the things they do. But try to notice what
they do. Then try some of those things yourself.
Pré-Vestibular da UFSC
Inglês
3. Don’t be afraid to show people what you’re really good
at. Talk about the things you like and do best. Don’t hide
your strong points. People will be interested in you if
there is something interesting about you.
4. Plan things to talk about with people. Find out what’s
in the newspaper headlines, listen to the top CDs, learn
about what’s new with your favorite TV or movie star.
The more you have to say, the more people will be
interested in having a conversation with you.
5. Be a good listener. Let people talk about themselves
before talking about “me, me, me.” Ask lots of questions.
Show an interest in their answers. This alone will make
people want to be your friend.
6. Once you start to get to know someone, don’t be
friendly one day and then too shy to talk the next day. Be
consistent. Consistency is something people look for in
friends.
7. Have confidence in yourself. Don’t be self-critical all
the time. This will only make the process more difficult.
Think of your good qualities. People are attracted to those
with self-confidence.
8. Try to make friends with the kind of people you really
like, respect, and admire – not just with those who are
easy to meet. Be friendly with a lot of people.

BEST FRIENDS
1. Men and women share the exact same view of a best
friend  a person who is always there for you. Your best
friend is someone you can depend on to share your
happiness, suffer through your worries, or lessen your
sorrow.
2. A great variety of factors play into the birth of a best
friendship  the age and circumstances under which
people meet, what first attracts them, why they remain
close, and how they fill each other's needs. Yet I found
the dominant themes that define a best friend were
remarkably similar across the broadest range of
experiences.
3. Safety was a word I heard over and over. A best friend
is a safe harbor, a guaranteed comfort zone. You never
have to explain yourself to best friends because they
really, really know who you are. With best friends, you
can be who you are. You can cry too hard or laugh too
loud and never worry what they'll think of you because
best friends are nonjudgmental. They will give you advice
if you want it and a kick in the pants if you need it, but
best friends will not judge you or make you ashamed of
Pré-Vestibular da UFSC

your behavior. A best friend gives you what you expect
from a parent and don't always get: unconditional love.
4. Best friends are loyal and trustworthy. A best friend is
a person to whom you can tell your most embarrassing,
revealing, and damaging personal secrets with the full
confidence they will never be repeated. Best friends can
deliver brutally honest answers in the most gentle fashion.
5. Finally, best friends are the family you choose. They
love you because they want to, not because they have to.
And for many people, a best friend becomes the brother
or sister they'd always wanted, but never had.

SANTA CATARINA
(1) […] Apart from indigenous inhabitants, only
adventurers, seamen and military personnel had
passed through these lands on their way to other
places. In the middle of the XVII century, explorers
from São Paulo founded three settlements – São
Francisco do Sul, Desterro (today Florianópolis), and
Santo Antônio de Laguna. But it was a century later,
as of 1748 that the occupation of the territory
began, with the arrival of the Azorean immigrants.
(2) The Azoreans settled on the coast. The inland regions
were occupied in the XIX century by successive
migratory waves of different European origins.
Pioneering Germans, Italians, Poles, Ukrainians,
Norwegians, among others, had to face the natural
jungle-like surroundings, live from the land, and
develop enterprising spirits. During the XX century,
other Europeans, Asians and Arabs, as well as
Brazilians from other regions, came to plant their
dreams and hopes in Catarinense soil.
(3) The state has a wide variety of landscapes,
ecosystems, historic roots and economic activities.

offers a surprising variety of landscapes. The
coastline is 560km long and the beaches are
paradisiacal. The mountains with heights reaching
2,000 meters are covered extensively with preserved
forests, which mix and blend in with the rain forest
and the majesty of the pine trees. There are also
rivers, lakes and dozens of thermal-mineral springs.
