    TEXTO 07

            Gente pisando no calo de gente que bronqueia, revolta, geme.
            – Parado.
           Desce um lote de passageiros, levando na face o marco do trabalho e da esperança.
         João, de pé, com as mãos firmes no friso do friso do ônibus, pensa. Seus pensamentos voam às ruas, correm contrariamente e desaparecem no turbilhão das avenidas.
           João calcula: “Vida miserável, a gente tem disposição, quer trabalhar e não consegue emprego”.
           – Parado.
            Desce outro lote de passageiros e sobe mais gente.
         Espremido e revoltado, João matuta: “Vida desgraçada: vinte oito anos, casado, pai de dois filhos, desempregado, sem casa, sem dinheiro, sem destino”...
           O coletivo corre pelo asfalto quente da Avenida Goiás em direção à Praça do Bandeirante, onde os imponentes edifícios fazem guarda ao travesso Bartolomeu que ameaça incendiar os rios.
    (TELES, José Mendonça. João. In: ______. A Cidade do Ócio. 4. ed. Goiânia: Editora Kelps. 2010, p. 43.)
    The sentences “Vida miserável, a gente tem disposição, quer trabalhar e não consegue emprego” and “Vida desgraçada: vinte oito anos, casado, pai de dois filhos, desempregado, sem casa, sem dinheiro, sem destino” reflect how difficult it is to survive without a job and money. What is João´s view of his situation?

    TEXTO 08



    [...]


           Sangram-me o peito, palavras/punhais de um reduzido número de pessoas insensatas que dominam o país e assistem com prazer, na arena dos verdes campos de minha terra, a homens digladiando-se e outros defendendo a utopia; outros, ainda incautos, insanamente ganham o pão de cada dia ao colorir a terra com sangue do irmão.

          Meu olhar, ante opaco, adquire a transparência límpida do regato. Minhas retinas fotografam e embaralham cartas e cenas, alegres e tristes.

         Cada pessoa ocupa o seu lugar. Existe. Resiste. Luta e revanche; recebe pancadas e flores. Sorriso de rosas; chicotadas traiçoeiras apanham-na, desprevenidamente, ao virar a esquina do tempo.

          Importa viver, importa navegar nas naves aventureiras e, sem comparações, viver sua história – de amor? Em julgar ou estabelecer parâmetros para suas ações. [...]



    (MARTINS, Maria Teresinha. Rapto de memória. Goiânia: Ed. da PUC Goiás, 2010. p. 75.)

    In Martins´s text, she says that “Minhas retinas fotografam e embaralham cartas e cenas, alegres e tristes”. Look at the extracts below and find one which has the closest meaning to Martins´s sentence:

    HAITI'S INDENTURED CHIlDREN 
    THE DAYS AFTER HAITI'S EARTHQUAKE brought joyous reunions for some families. Others faced the grim reality that they'd been suddenly robbed of parents or offspring. But for Haiti's 225,000 restaveks, or indentured children, the quake brought only an uncertain future.
    Slavery-which ended with independence in 1804-is illegal in Haiti. And technically, restaveks are not slaves. The institution has its roots in the Caribbean tradition of child lending between families (usually relatives) to pitch in with extra work, care for the elderly or sick, or to provide opportunity to a child from a poor family. Generally, rural parents send their children to live with wealthier families in the cities. In exchange for domestic labor, the children are supposed to receive lodging, food, clothing, medicine, and-most importantly-education. In as many as half of the cases, they do (though classifying treatment in private homes is notoriously difficult). The unlucky ones, called restaveks-from the French rester avec, or "to stay with" -are loaned through normal channels but denied schooling and subject to abuse and degradation. This phenomenon has spiked in modern Haiti, as more and more children end up with equally impoverished families in the slums.
    Before the quake, up to 22 percent of Haitian homes contained restaveks, according to a study funded by USAID. Keeping restaveks is illegal, but child loans are not and, given the extent of Haiti's governmental dysfunction, it's hard to tell which cases are which. Now that the quake has thrown family networks into disarray, the flimsy social ties supporting restaveks are likely to break down. "For families struggling in the wake of a catastrophe, restavek kids are the first to go; says Glenn Smucker, an anthropologist who specializes in development work in Haiti. "Their parents are not there to watch out for them, so they're far more vulnerable" to desertion and trafficking. 
    But even as the numbers of abandoned restaveks swell, the demand for their services is likely to decrease. A mass exodus of residents from Port-au-Prince is reversing decades of migratory trends. If the shift sticks, it means there will be less need for restaveks in the city. But it's also possible that families suffering from the quake's economic aftershocks will feel extra pressure to lend out their children, even as it becomes more likely they'll end up as restaveks. Which, combined with a spike in new orphans, means Haiti will likely see a rise in the number of its street children in the years to come.

    FOOTBALL'S RED CARD 

    THE WORLD'S MOST VALUABLE SPORTS TEAM IS drowning in debt. English football powerhouse Manchester United (Forbes estimates its worth at $1.8 billion) had to raise some $800 million in a bond issue last month, which is still $340 million shy of its total debts. Man U needed the bond to pay off the millions that American businessman 
    Malcolm Glazer borrowed to purchase the team in 2005. But in the first three weeks since the bond was issued it lost nearly 10 percent of its value, a sign that, even though Man U's revenues reached a record $444 million last year, the market is growing wary of debt, particularly the European variety
    Man U isn't alone. Debt levels have also skyrocketed among rivals like liverpool, calling into question the business model of English Premier League football. Each year the three worst teams are banished to a lower league, where vital broadcasting revenues are dramatically reduced. This puts huge pressure on clubs to compete for the best players, who now regularly fetch more than $50 million a year. Unlike in the U.S., there's no system of collective bargaining to restrain wages. As a result, the total salary bill for the Premier League has risen more than 20 percent since 2008. This has created a vicious cycle of rising debt among clubs that must spend extravagantly on players to ensure increased revenue. Any team attempting to be frugal becomes more likely to end up with lower revenue. It's become a game of who can spend the most, and it probably won't end well.

    VISITING LONDON

    Today, more than 6.000.000 people live in London and every year, more than nine million people come from countries all over the world to visit the city.
    A quick and easy way to get to different places in the city is to use an Underground train. The trains run all day and most of the night. You can see much more of London from one of its famous red buses. There are some special buses for visitors that take you to many of the interesting places in the city on one journey that takes about one and a half hour. London taxis are called ‘black cabs’. Most of them are black but some are not. The drivers are friendly and helpful. It’s also possible to take a long boat trip along the River Thames and see lovely places in London and out of the city. London has interesting old buildings to visit, many of them are hundreds of years old: The Buckingham Palace – the home of the Queen; the Tower Bridge – opened in 1894, The Houses of the Parliament – the home of the British government and beautiful churches: St. Paul’s Cathedral and Westminster Abbey. This abbey is where many kings and queens are crowned – or get the throne – and where the royal family get married.
    London has beautiful parks and gardens, theatres, museums and art galleries. There are also streets with famous shops and markets and international restaurants and English pubs where you can drink the English beer. The typical English food is fish and chips. They’re cheap and good to eat. But there are many, many more things to see and do in London. Come and see!
