What would you do with thousands of discarded plastic bottles? Artists in Rio de Janeiro turned the plastic bottles into sustainable art when they created giant fish sculptures at Botafogo beach. The giant fish sculptures are a stunning installation by day and even more breathtaking when they are lit up at night. They were created in honor of the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, known as Rio+20. Available at: . Accessed in March 2013.

TASK: In small groups, think of creative ways to reuse plastic bottles or other things we usually throw away and make a tutorial to share your ideas. In this part of the project, it is only necessary to write a first draft. Later, you are going to use it to make the final version of your tutorial (a poster or a video).

Rio de JaneiroÕs slums becoming Brazil tourist hotspot

Nigel Parker, of Sydney, Australia, takes in the view from the entrance of favela Rocinha in Rio de Janeiro as colorful paintings of the favela hang around him.

Published: June 25, 2012 By Casey McDermott — McClatchy Newspapers

[...] A far cry from the famous Christ the Redeemer statue or the luxury Copacabana hotels, these crowded slum communities — called favelas — on the hillsides of Rio are becoming unlikely stops for visitors who are looking to get a glimpse of life beyond the bars and beaches in Brazil’s tourist hotspot. Foreign tourists — and increasingly Brazilians themselves — are flocking wide-eyed to Rio’s favelas to spend a night at a bed and breakfast, sample local cuisine, take graffiti workshops or play paint-ball. In some cases, visitors are settling into these neighborhoods for weeks at a time at venues such as Casa Alto Vidigal, a favela home-turned-hostel that lures crowds with its bar and rooftop deck overlooking the city.

Most of the tourists come for just a few hours, long enough to see what it’s like to live in places that have reputations for crowding, crippling poverty and clashes between drug gangs and police. [...]

READING Now read the text quickly to check your predictions.

Is crying good for you? by Kim Schworm Acosta

66

Why women cry more First, the male sex hormone testosterone seems to inhibit crying, while the female hormone prolactin may lower the emotional threshold. Plus, women may be exposed to more emotionally charged situations, such as caregiving, and tend to be more empathetic. Finally, men are often expected to control their tears. Tears of joy — a myth? Some experts doubt whether we ever cry for positive reasons. Very often, during a happy moment we allow ourselves to reflect on less joyful times. For example, during a reunion, we may actually cry for all the time

that we missed each other. And while getting married is often a positive event, at the same time it is the end of a certain phase in life and this could cause tears of sadness. Another theory is that very positive emotions may also evoke a kind of helplessness. You are simply at a loss as to how to express your extreme joy. This inability to adequately convey your feelings might result in tears. — Ad Vingerhoets, Ph.D., clinical professor of clinical psychology at Tilburg University in The Netherlands and editor of Emotion Regulation and Well-Being (Springer).

Why we cry Humans most likely cry to solicit help and comfort, and sometimes to ward off aggression from others (female tears can stop men from being mean). It has these functions in helpless, dependent babies, and we have little reason to assume that this trait changes as people get older. Why it feels good It’s possible that there is some physiological benefit to crying, such as stimulation of the parasympathetic nervous system, which is important for relaxation. Shedding tears may also release opioids, natural chemicals that affect our feelings of pleasure, and oxytocin, a hormone linked to bonding, feelings of trust and stress reduction. The largest benefit, however, comes not from crying itself but from the comfort and others offer in reaction to our tears. All of that said, occasionally controlling your tears isn’t likely to harm your health. But continually suppressing emotions can sap your body of energy and potentially cause physical symptoms.

There are actually four different original versions of The Scream that Edvard Munch created using different art mediums including oil paints, tempera, and pastels. In The Scream’s timeless image there is a genderless person with a pale face, standing beside a railing with an expansive view of a chaotic environment. What is so gripping about the image is that the person is screaming, their mouth hung wide open with their hands on the sides of their face, and you can see that scream reflected and continuing on into the distance of the intensely bloody red, orange, deep blue, and black colored background.

Favela Painting: Giving Pride to Brazil’s Poor

“I’ve never been to a museum in my life, and now I’m living in one,” said one of Brazil‘s poorest of her Vila Cruzeiro favela neighborhood. Dutch artists Jeroen Koolhaas and Dre Urhahn perform a vibrant form of charitable art they call “Favela Painting”. A favela is a Brazilian shanty town that houses the city’s poorest citizens, those who cannot find gainful work or a proper home. These run-down ghettos are dangerous and dilapidated, roundly ignored by Brazilian city governments. Where charity has forgotten Brazil’s favelas, Koolhaas and Urhahn have aimed to instill pride in the poor by giving these neighborhoods an entirely new, entirely artful appearance. The team at Favela Painting travel to Brazil’s favelas, live there among the poor and organize teams of local citizens who them in their art. Koolhaas and Urhahn propose paint pieces that re-invent the neighborhood and produce them hand-in-hand with the locals. The results are absolutely stunning, a colorful mix of geometric patterns that turn the ignored, the ugly into living works of art. Those who live in these Favela neighborhoods can take pride in their homes and their communities, thanks to the charitable work of the Favela Painting team.

Jan or Johannes Vermeer van Delft (1632-1675), a Dutch genre painter who lived and worked in Delft all his life, created some of the most exquisite paintings in Western art. His works are rare. Of the 35 or 36 paintings generally attributed to him, most

portray figures in interiors. All his works are ired for the sensitivity with which he rendered effects of light and color and for the poetic quality of his images. He produced meticulously constructed interiors with just one or two figures — usually women. These are intimate genre paintings in which the principal figure is invariably engaged in some everyday activity. Often the light enters Vermeer’s paintings from a window. He was a master at depicting the way light illuminates objects. During the late 1650s, Vermeer began to place a new emphasis on depicting figures within carefully composed interior spaces. Other Dutch painters painted similar scenes, but they were less concerned with the articulation of the space than with the description of the figures and their actions. Little is known for certain about Vermeer’s life and career. Not much is known about Vermeer’s apprenticeship as an artist either. After his death, Vermeer was overlooked by all but the most discriminating collectors and art historians for more than 200 years. His few pictures were attributed to other artists. Only after 1866, when the French critic W. Thore-Burger ‘rediscovered’ him, did Vermeer’s works become widely known and his works heralded as genuine Vermeer. Internet: <www.ibiblio.org>.

Judge the items that follow according to the text above. 1 It took around two centuries for Vermeer’s paintings to be attributed to him again. 2 Some of Vermeer’s paintings are considered strange. 3 Even though there were just a few of them, Vermeer’s paintings proved to be very influential in the history of Dutch painting. 4 Whenever Vermeer’s paintings portray human figures, these individuals are shown performing ordinary tasks. 5 Vermeer got his inspiration from poems about women. 6 Vermeer paid meticulous attention to the scenery in his paintings. 7 Light did not play a significant role in Vermeer’s paintings. 8 Vermeer gave greater emphasis to interior spaces than other painters did. 9 Vermeer’s life and work history were widely documented. 10 Vermeer was neglected by most collectors and art historians after he died.

Ayrton Senna: 1960-1994 – Race car driver Brazilian race car driver Ayrton Senna was a famous professional race car driver and sportsman at the time of his death in a racing crash in 1994. After an outstanding career on the kart racing circuit, Senna was a three-time champion of the elite Formula One (F1) series. In his brief but spectacular career, Senna proved he was arguably “the most remarkable racing driver of all time,” according to Alan Henry in Grand Prix Champions. Born Ayrton Senna da Silva on March 21, 1960, in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Senna was an awkward child who was later diagnosed with a motor-coordination problem. Senna’s father, Milton da Silva, was a successful businessman and landowner, but also was a motor racing fan, and encouraged his son’s fascination with cars. When Senna was four, his father gave him a onehorsepower go-kart. When Senna got behind the wheel, his awkwardness disappeared — he was a natural. The entire family ed Senna’s interest in motoring, and spent weekends together at local parks where the young man could drive his kart. His parents used driving privileges as leverage to get Senna, a lackluster student, to pay better attention to his studies. Fortunately for Senna, his family was wealthy and could afford to finance his racing. At eight years old, Senna was driving the family car. European racing stars Jim Clark and Jackie Stewart were his heroes, as well as Emerson Fittipaldi, a Brazilian driver who was fast emerging as an extraordinary talent. Senna received a 100cc kart for his tenth birthday, but had to practice on his own at the local kart track until he turned 13, the minimum age for racing karts in Brazil. Interest in European motor racing grew in Brazil when Fittipaldi won the Formula One World Championship in 1972, and the nation hosted its first Grand Prix at Interlagos the following year.

LUCKY DISCOVERIES Famous inventions and advances that came about by accident Some of the biggest game-changing inventions and discoveries of our time were not the product of calculated genius, but accidents that happened to work out. These lucky mishaps have given the world everything from the awesome Slinky toy to the lifesaving antibiotic penicillin. In many cases they’ve also reshaped major industries or created entirely new ones. NEWSWEEK takes a look at some of the most serendipitous breakthroughs in history and how they came about.

Popsicle inventor Frank Epperson, shown with his granddaughter Nancy.

Every child is grateful for frank Epperson, even if he or she doesn’t know it. in 1905, Epperson was a mere 11 years old when he accidentally left a soft-drink concoction with a stirring stick in it on the front porch of his san francisco home. it happened to be a very cold night, and when the boy found his cup the next day, the liquid inside was frozen to the stick. While he had no idea what to make of it at the time, nearly two decades later he patented his “frozen ice on a stick” and called it the Eppsicle, but then changed the name to “Popsicle” because his children liked that better. a few years later he sold his invention to the Joe lowe co. in new york. the Popsicle eventually ended up in the hands of unilever’s good humor division, which offers more than 30 flavors today.

PoPsicles

MicroWaVe oVeNs in 1946 raytheon engineer Percy spencer was testing a magnetron — a device that emits microwave radiation — when he realized that the candy bar in his pocket had melted. he figured the magnetron caused this to happen and tested his theory by placing popcorn kernels near the device. When those popped, he tried to cook an egg, which exploded. sure, it made a mess, but he also realized that exposure to low-density microwave energy could quickly cook food. spencer and other engineers started to work on a practical way to trap the waves and use them for this purpose. By 1947 the first commercial units became available through raytheon. they weighed as much as 750 pounds and cost thousands of dollars, but by 1975 technological advances had made the device as popular (and affordable) as an oven range.

Before reading the texts, look at the pictures and the titles. Who are these people? What do you know about them?

Friedrich/Interfoto/Latinstock

This English inventor played an important role in furthering knowledge about the relationship between magnets and electricity. His discovery of what he called “electromagnetic rotation” was a vital step in the development of what would become the electric motor. Faraday worked out that the interation between electricity and a magnet would lead to the constant rotation of current, something he tested using a wire carrying electricity, a magnet, and a bowl of mercury.

ISAAC NEWTON (1642-1727) Akg-Images/Latinstock

Hulton-Deutsch Collection/Corbis/Latinstock

MICHAEL FARADAY (1791-1867)

In 1687, the English physicist Isaac Newton published the universal law of gravitation, one of the most remarkable of all scientific discoveries. It explained what holds the universe together: that all heavenly bodies exert a force called gravitas, or weight. Newton’s work would dominate science’s views on the physical universe for almost 300 years.

According to the text,

Unifesp/2012 Longevity: Habits May Extend Life Only So Much By Nicholas Bakalar August 8, 2011 The eating, drinking and exercise habits of extremely old but healthy people differ little from those of the rest of us, a new study has found. Gerontologists at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine recruited 477 Ashkenazi Jews ages 95 to 112 who were living independently. The researchers took blood samples, did physical examinations and obtained detailed personal and medical histories from each participant. Then they compared them with 1,374 non-Hispanic white adults, ages 65 to 74, from the general population. For both men and women, consumption of alcohol, amount of physical activity and the percentage of people on lowcalorie or low-salt diets were almost identical in the two groups. Long-lived men were less likely to be obese than their younger counterparts, although no less likely to be overweight. The oldest women were more likely to be overweight and less likely to be obese. More men among the oldest were nonsmokers, but smoking habits were not significantly different among the women. Does this mean that it all depends on genes, and we might as well eat, drink and be merry? No, according to the senior author, Dr. Nir Barzilai, director of the Institute for Aging Research at Albert Einstein College of Medicine. “For most of us who do not have genes for longevity,” he said, “if you follow the healthy lifestyle the medical community has put forth, you are much more likely to live past 80.” The study was published online last week in The Journal of the American Geriatrics Society.

a. independent elderly people are more likely to live more and in a healthy way. b. the research compared two groups: one of men aged from 95 to 112 and one of women aged from 65 to 74. c. the study concluded that extremely old people do not have significantly different eating, drinking and exercise habits from the rest of the population. d. women in the oldest group were more likely to be nonsmokers when compared to women in the 65 to 74 group. e. non-Hispanic white adults tend to live less than Ashkenazi Jews, probably because of their lifestyle.

Os homens que fizeram parte do grupo da faixa etária mais velha a. eram todos antitabagistas. b. apresentaram propensão à obesidade e ao sobrepeso. c. não consumiam bebidas alcoólicas e faziam dieta com restrição de calorias e de sal. d. não eram sedentários, mas também não praticavam exercícios físicos. e. apresentaram uma tendência ao sobrepeso semelhante à dos homens na faixa dos 65 a 74 anos.

Conheça os vencedores do Ensino Médio Topfoto/Keystone

Aparelhos de som MP3 tornaram-se companheiros insepar‡veis de atletas que gostam de intensificar seus treinos com a pr‡tica da corrida. Mas ser‡ que os atletas sabem como tirar maior proveito do seu set list musical? Pesquisas de diversas ‡reas j‡ provaram que as batidas de uma mœsica podem diminuir ou aumentar o ritmo das adas, determinando o grau de desempenho do corredor. Pensando nisso, Jo‹o Pedro Wieland, do ColŽgio de Aplica•‹o da UFRJ, criou um aplicativo capaz de selecionar as mœsicas salvas em um smartphone de acordo com as necessidades f’sicas de atletas profissionais e amadores no momento da pr‡tica. O projeto foi agraciado com o 1o lugar da categoria Estudante do Ensino MŽdio do XXVI Pr•mio Jovem Cientista, no ano em que o tema escolhido foi “Inova•‹o tecnol—gica nos esportes”. (...) Em segundo lugar ficou Izabel Souza de Jesus Barbosa, do Instituto de Aplica•‹o Fernando Rodrigues da Silveira (CAP-UERJ), por realizar um mapeamento das “tribos” de jovens presentes em sua escola e desenvolver um projeto que, a partir da pr‡tica de esportes, pretende despertar a cidadania e diminuir a pr‡tica de bullying entre os estudantes. O terceiro lugar foi para a estudante Bianca Valeguzki de Oliveira, aluna do 2o ano do ColŽgio Presbiteriano de Ju’na, em Mato Grosso, que encontrou um fruto nativo capaz de repor prote’nas e dar mais energia a atletas.

The more important question is whether they burn enough calories to make a real difference to your health and the answer depends on what game you’re playing, and how vigorously you play it. A recent study at the University of Waterloo found that students burned 5.4 times more

calories playing the ‘exer-game’ Wii Sports tennis than they would by just sitting on the couch. That’s not as much as a real game of tennis, which burns about eight times more calories than you’d burn at rest, but it means a respectable workout that can help improve your fitness. In contrast, an earlier study of other games like Dance Dance Revolution and Wii bowling found that they burned even fewer calories; equivalent to walking at a moderate pace. The bottom line: active video games are better than nothing,

but not as good as the ‘real’ sports that they imitate. Since most young Canadians already spend more than six hours a day sitting in front of TV and computer screens, ‘parents should at least try to get their kids playing games that involve being physically active’, says Scott Leatherdale, the researcher who led the Waterloo study. “That being said, video games should not replace actual physical activity.”

Theme for English B By Langston Hughes

The instructor said,

I wonder if it’s that simple? I am twenty-two, colored, born in Winston-Salem. I went to school there, then Durham, then here to this college on the hill above Harlem. 10 I am the only colored student in my class. The steps from the hill lead down into Harlem through a park, then I cross St. Nicholas, Eighth Avenue, Seventh, and I come to the Y, the Harlem Branch Y, where I take the elevator 15 up to my room, sit down, and write this page: It’s not easy to know what is true for you or me at twenty-two, my age. But I guess I’m what I feel and see and hear, Harlem, I hear you: hear you, hear me — we two — you, me, talk on this page. 20 (I hear New York too.) Me — who? Well, I like to eat, sleep, drink, and be in love. I like to work, read, learn, and understand life. I like a pipe for a Christmas present, or records – Bessie, bop, or Bach.

134

25 I guess being colored doesn’t make me NOT like the same things other folks like who are other races. So will my page be colored that I write? Being me, it will not be white. But it will be 30 a part of you, instructor. You are white — yet a part of me, as I am a part of you. That’s American. Sometimes perhaps you don’t want to be a part of me. 35 Nor do I often want to be a part of you. But we are, that’s true! As I learn from you, I guess you learn from me — although you’re older — and white — 40 and somewhat more free. This is my page for English B.

LOOKING AHEAD Love and ion are both extremely strong feelings. In your opinion, are they different? Do you agree with the statements below? Why (not)?

1. Love is a state of living, while ion is a state of being. 2. ion lasts for a short while, but love lasts for a long time. 3. In love, deeper understanding is the essence, while ion doesn’t require it.

In your opinion, can ion and true love coexist in a relationship? Why (not)? Love is not only about ionate love. It is an intense feeling of caring for another person. It can take many different forms: romantic, friendly, familial. How important are these different forms of love in your life? Why?

Talk To yourself; IT’s gooD for you

N

o matter what happens, there’s one person in the world you just can’t stop talking to — yourself. […] But when you talk to yourself make sure you use what the scientists at the University of Illinois at UrbanaChampaign, USA, call the ‘interrogative self-talk’. This type of self-talk is one in which we question ourselves —

“Will I be able to do this?”. According to the researchers, this type of self-talk produces better results than declarative self-talk — “I will be able to do this”. To arrive at this conclusion the researchers divided the participants into ‘Will I?’ and ‘I will’ groups to solve some tests. Surprisingly, the ‘Will I?’ group fared doubly better than the ‘I will’ group. This is because selfposed questions like ‘Will I?’ inspire responses that

are intrinsically motivated such as “I think I will”. The introspection gives us inner confidence to achieve the particular challenge and we end up doing it better than when we declare to ourselves “I will”. In the “I will” mode, we usually skip the introspection and thus the motivation is not intrinsic. These findings may make a lot of motivational experts raise their eyebrows because the ‘I will’ self-talk is believed to help us muster inner strength and give confidence.

guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honouring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check, a check which has come back marked “insufficient funds.” But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great depositories of opportunity of this nation. So we have come to our nation’s capital to cash this check.

HINO NACIONAL Letra: Joaquim Osório Duque Estrada Música: Francisco Manuel da Silva

Ouviram do Ipiranga as margens plácidas De um povo heroico o brado retumbante, E o sol da liberdade, em raios fúlgidos, Brilhou no céu da Pátria nesse instante.

Deitado eternamente em berço esplêndido, Ao som do mar e à luz do céu profundo, Fulguras, ó Brasil, florão da América, Iluminado ao sol do Novo Mundo!

Se o penhor dessa igualdade Conseguimos conquistar com braço forte, Em teu seio, ó liberdade, Desafia o nosso peito a própria morte!

Do que a terra mais garrida Teus risonhos, lindos campos têm mais flores; “Nossos bosques têm mais vida”, “Nossa vida” no teu seio “mais amores”.

Ó Pátria amada, Idolatrada, Salve! Salve!

Ó Pátria amada, Idolatrada, Salve! Salve!

Brasil, um sonho intenso, um raio vívido De amor e de esperança à terra desce, Se em teu formoso céu, risonho e límpido, A imagem do Cruzeiro resplandece.

Brasil, de amor eterno seja símbolo O lábaro que ostentas estrelado, E diga o verde-louro desta flâmula – Paz no futuro e glória no ado.

Gigante pela própria natureza, És belo, és forte, impávido colosso, E o teu futuro espelha essa grandeza.

Mas, se ergues da justiça a clava forte, Verás que um filho teu não foge à luta, Nem teme, quem te adora, a própria morte.

Terra adorada, Entre outras mil, És tu, Brasil, Ó Pátria amada! Dos filhos deste solo és mãe gentil, Pátria amada, Brasil!

Terra adorada, Entre outras mil, És tu, Brasil, Ó Pátria amada! Dos filhos deste solo és mãe gentil, Pátria amada, Brasil!
