Biodiversity
Biodiversity is the sum of all species on the planet. Some of
these species contain important substances that treat several
diseases. The most relevant thing about biodiversity is that the
rich North needs it and the poor South has it.
One of the ways to promote a sustainable development is to pay
the poor nations to save the forests that they still have.
Resources can be extracted but not exhausted. Thus, the
environment can be preserved.
The Earth belongs to all mankind. Everybody needs to help in
the protection of the planet. And there is much to do. We have
to fight pollution in all its forms to avoid acid rain, the
greenhouse effect, and the death of species, rivers, lakes and
seas. (Adapted from Newsweek)

Time was, advertising was a relatively simple undertaking: buy
some print space and airtime, create the spots, and blast them at
a captive audience. Today it’s chaos: while passive viewers still
exist, mostly we pick and choose what to consume, ignoring ads
with a touch of the DVR remote. Ads are forced to become more
like content, and the best aim to engage consumers so much that
they pass the material on to friends – by email, Twitter,
Facebook – who will pass it on to friends, who will… you get
the picture. In the industry, “viral” has become a usefully vague
way to describe any campaign that spreads from person to
person, acquiring its own momentum.
It’s not that online advertising has eclipsed TV, but it has
become its full partner – and in many ways the more substantive
one, a medium in which the audience must be earned, not simply
bought.

Missing Out: In Praise of the Unlived Life is Adam Phillips's
17th book and is a characteristic blend of literary criticism and
philosophical reflection packaged around a central idea. The
theme here is missed opportunities, roads not taken, alternative
versions of our lives and ourselves, all of which, Phillips
argues, exert a powerful hold over our imaginations. Using a
series of examples and close readings of authors including
Philip Larkin and Shakespeare, the book suggests that a
broader understanding of life's inevitable disappointments and
thwarted desires can enable us to live fuller, richer lives. Good
things come to those who wait.
Does he see himself as a champion of frustration?
“I'm not on the side of frustration exactly, so much as the idea
that one has to be able to bear frustration in order for
satisfaction to be realistic. I'm interested in how the culture of

frustration, so that every time we feel a bit restless or bored or
irritable, we eat, or we shop.”

UNB 2012
Text I – This text refers to items from 1 through 10 and item 30.
Caribbean festivals
Part I – Fiesta de Santiago de Apóstol in Loiza Aldea,
Puerto Rico (Late July)
Nowhere is Puerto Rico’s rich West African heritage more
pronounced — and celebrated — than in the coastal town of
Loiza Aldea. Every July 25, the town hosts a celebration of its
patron saint, Santiago, one of several Catholic saints believed to
be incarnations of ancient African deities. The festival includes
street parties, open-air plena and bomba concerts, and Carnivallike parades.
Part II – Festival de Merengue in Santo Domingo,
Dominican Republic (Late July)
Few things are more quintessentially Dominican than
“merengue”. You can hear its urgent upbeat rhythm just about
anywhere you go, from supermarkets to public buses, from the
capital to the countryside, and it seems Dominican children
learn to dance to “merengue” almost as soon as they can walk.
The annual Merengue Festival lasts less than a week and isn’t
even the Dominican Republic’s largest music festival, but only
Carnival makes for a bigger and more ebullient street party.
Part III – St. Patrick’s Day in Montserrat (Mid-March)
The Irish aren't the only ones who know how to throw a St.
Patrick's Day party. The tiny island of Montserrat, battered by
hurricanes and half-buried in volcanic ash, celebrates March 17
as a national holiday with a terrific week-long festival. St.
Patrick's Day has dual importance in Montserrat: it has long
been celebrated by the island's large Irish Catholic population,
who first settled there in the 1630s to escape religious
persecution, and it also marks the day, in 1798, that enslaved
Africans launched a major uprising.
Part IV – Crop Over Festival in Barbados (July)
Why celebrate for a day or a weekend, when you can party for a
whole month? That’s the attitude of Barbadians when it comes
to Crop Over, the island’s largest and most anticipated festival,
held from early July to early August. The celebration, which
dates back to the late 1700s, originally marked the end of the
all-important sugarcane harvest, when Barbados was one of the
world's largest producers of sugar. Today the heart of Crop
Over is calypso music, which infuses the entire event with its
rhythm and lyrics. Internet: <www.way.com> (adapted).
According to the text, it is true to infer that
1 “merengue” and “calypso” are prevalent in the four
celebrations described in the text.
2 “Fiesta de Santiago de Apóstol” is a mixture of African and
Catholic celebrations.
3 Puerto Ricans believe that Santiago is the reincarnation of
many African deities.
4 it is possible to hear “merengue” in the Dominican Republic
only during the festival in Santo Domingo.
5 “upbeat”, in part II, means cheerful.
6 Carnival is second to no other celebration in the Dominican
Republic.
7 St. Patrick’s Day in Montserrat has both a religious and a
political meaning.
8 “Festival de Merengue” is the celebration that takes the
longest of all the four described in the text.
9 “battered”, in part III, means damaged.
10 “Crop Over” was created as an event to lament the decline of
Barbados as a large sugar exporter.
Text II – This text refers to items from 11 through 15 and
item 30.
The Festival of Lights (Divali) in Trinidad and Tobago
Trinidad and Tobago Hindu festivals, customs and traditions
form an integral part of society and “Divali” is no exception. A
large percentage of the population consists of ethnic Indians and
many are Hindus. The celebration of “Divali” in Trinidad and
Tobago is a national holiday with a significant amount of
functions to celebrate the occasion. Recently the celebration has
not only been extended to the homes and communities but
organizations have also embraced this festival with special
events held to commemorate it. This is evident in banks, schools
and other organizations where members of staff organize
“Divali” cultural programmes, dress in Indian ethnic wear and
distribute sweets to their staff and customers.
One of the highpoints of the celebrations is held at the Divali
Nagar site which is the official headquarters of the National
Council of Indian Culture. At the Nagar there is a week of
cultural, religious, educational and commercial activities which
attract a wide cross section of the population including members
of government, diplomatic agencies and parliamentarians.
Hindus in Trinidad and Tobago are also involved in cleaning
and redecorating their homes for this auspicious occasion.
They also maintain a period of abstinence or fasting. The day of
“Divali” is marked with a host of activities in the homes where
various dishes and sweets are prepared and “Pooja” is
performed.
Family members participate in evening worship at 6 o’clock to
Mother Lakshmi, the Goddess of prosperity and wealth. They
then light their homes with several dozens of “deyas” and
distribute delicacies to their families, friends and the
community. This sacred festival is known to bring about
positive feelings to the community such as a sense of unity,
cleanliness, harmony and festivity.
about the future. To commemorate the event, Druids built huge
sacred bonfires, where the people gathered to burn crops and
animals as sacrifices to the Celtic deities. During the
celebration, the Celts wore costumes, typically consisting of
animal heads and skins, and attempted to tell each other’s
fortunes. Internet: <www.history.com> (adapted).
Based on the text, it is true to infer that
16 the Celts thought that the dead were closer to the living
during Samhain.
17 “fortunes” (R.19) means wealth.
18 Samhain started to be celebrated to honor Christ.
19 the Samhain festival marked the end of the summer cycle and
the beginning of fall.
20 people asked the dead to protect them as part of the Samhain
celebrations.
Internet: <www.thecomicstrips.com> (adapted).
Judge the items below based on the cartoon above.
21 The “autumn tradition” mentioned is Halloween.
22 The pumpkins’ intention is to scare people.
23 In the last sentence, I’ve figured can correctly replace the
idea conveyed by “I see”.
24 The pumpkins were given faces to be able to see what
happen during the election period.
Internet: www2.nalis.gov.tt (adapted).
Based on the text, judge the items below.
11 “Pooja” is an example of a sweet offered during “Divali”.
12 In the last sentence of the text, “bring about” conveys the
opposite idea of inhibit.
13 Besides “Divali”, other Hindu celebrations take place in
Trinidad and Tobago.
14 “Divali” has become increasingly popular in Trinidad and
Tobago.
15 Divali Nagar is the official webpage for “Divali”.
Text III – This text refers to items 16 through 20 and item 30.
Ancient origins of Halloween
Halloween’s origins date back to the ancient Celtic festival of
Samhain. The Celts, who lived 2,000 years ago in the area that
is now Ireland, the United Kingdom and northern France,
celebrated their new year on November 1. This day marked the
end of summer and the harvest and the beginning of the dark,
cold winter, a time of year that was often associated with human
death. Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the
boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became
blurred. On the night of October 31 they celebrated Samhain,
when it was believed that the ghosts of the dead returned to
earth. In addition to causing trouble and damaging crops, Celts
thought that the presence of the otherworldly spirits made it
easier for the Druids, or Celtic priests, to make predictions

Based on the cartoon above, it can be deduced that
25 endangered species are fashionable costumes for Halloween.
26 the turkey will wear the costume to save his life.
27 the expression “As long as” can correctly be replaced by As
soon as.
28 the wolf wants to look less threatening.
29 the chameleon will wear a rented costume.

religious origins?
A “Crop Over”.

Slavoj Žižek: the world’s hippest philosopher Slavoj Žižek has got
an opinion on every subject from decaffeinated coffee to sex, from
seagulls and swearing to the end of the world. He talks to Helen
Brown.
Žižek dismisses those who dub him “The Elvis of Philosophy” with a
brisk: “To the gulag! All of them!”. “It is too traumatic for me to see
myself. Whenever I see such a thing, my reaction is to ask: 'Would a
woman allow me to take her daughter to the cinema?’ My God! Of
course not! I don’t want to deal with myself. I don’t want to exist. I just
want to think.”
But whether he wanted to or not, Slavoj Žižek came into independent
existence in March 1949, in the then-Yugoslav republic of Slovenia.
His father was an economist and civil servant and his mother was an
accountant.
“My life is straightforward,” he says. “Nothing happened. At 15, I
wanted to be a movie director. But I saw some really good European
films and I accepted that I couldn’t do that. Then, at 17, I decided to
become a philosopher.”

Potatoes Can Reduce Blood Pressure
Just a couple of servings of potato a day can reduce blood pressure in
obese or overweight people with high blood pressure, calling into
question the lowly spud's current reputation as a fattening, unhealthy
food, according to new research presented at a conference in Denver,
Colorado, USA, on Wednesday.
“The potato, more than perhaps any other vegetable, has an
undeserved, bad reputation that has led many health conscious
people to ban them from their diet, “said Dr Joe Vinson, a professor in
the Department of Chemistry at the University of Scranton in
Pennsylvania, who led the research that was presented at the 242nd
National Meeting & Exposition of the American Chemical Society
(ACS).

the research was done with purple potatoes cooked in the microwave
oven, with no oil or fat whatsoever.

Gaddafi vows: 'we won't surrender again;
we are not women'
A defiant Muammar Gaddafi vowed to fight to the end against Libya's
new government and its Nato backers, warning that his forces would
turn the country "into a hell" rather than surrender like “women”. [...]
"We will fight in every valley, in every street, in every oasis, and every
town," he said. "We won't surrender again; we are not women; we will
keep fighting," he said, referring to loyal tribes in the towns of Sirte
and Bani Walid.

S. Fred Singer has recently published a book, The Great Global
Warming Swindle, based on sound science and interviews with
real climate scientists. The main scientific argument presented
in the book is that there is no proof that the current warming is
caused by a rise of greenhouse gases from human activity. Ice
core records from the past 650,000 years show that temperature
increases have preceded – not resulted from – increases in CO2
by hundreds of years, suggesting that the warming of the oceans
is an important source of the rise in atmospheric CO2.

Language and Neo-colonialism: African Development
Challenge
[...] Africa represents today the only major historical and
cultural area of the world where despite their indigenous sociocultural majorities, countries prefer to use the
languages of their erstwhile masters in their attempts to develop
and make social progress. The result of this neocolonial
approach to culture and democracy is that the scientific and
technological culture of Africans is hardly advancing. Actually,
Africa, by and large, is retrogressing or stagnating. Mass society
and its culture is shut off, and condemned to cultural
backwardness and alienation from the life of the elite. The elite
in turn is bent on what many social critics regard as mindless
imitation of the colonial and metropolitan cultures of the west.
This is an orientation, which in effect integrates the elite more
into the culture of the former colonial masters than the
indigenous cultures from where this elite historically and
socially derives […].

I haven't been able to come to terms with all of the lying that
happens on the internet.
I have sons that spend a great deal of time on MySpace and
FaceBook. I was looking at one of their profiles and a great deal
of the info. on there was a lie. I asked him about it and he said
that it was OK because everyone lied a little on
MySpace. He is a young man of great character, and this does
not represent his normal behaviour.
I understand that giving out personal information over the
internet is not wise. Some lies are told to cover the true identity
of the person communicating. But how many? And when is it
enough? Which lies are acceptable? Which are not?
It seems like this constant acceptance of lying over the internet
can desensitize one, to the point that lying in general, is more
acceptable in one's daily life.
I have not been able to get past this and think it will not have a
positive effect on the younger generation.

08.The position of the author can be summarized in:
Oliveira falaria com Targino no seu português arcaico. Umas
poucas palavras, quase nada. Nos meses em que ficou preso,
esvaziou-se da fala. Enquanto Samuel corria, tomando
providências para a libertação, ele entregou-se aos pensamentos
e compreendeu que a vida é nada. Perdeu a costumeira alegria e
ganhou a firmeza.
