        (...) Um dia, passado muito tempo, Pedro Bala ia com o Sem-Pernas pelas ruas. Entraram numa igreja da Piedade, gostavam de ver as coisas de ouro, mesmo era fácil bater uma bolsa de uma senhora que rezasse. Mas não havia nenhuma senhora na igreja àquela hora. Somente um grupo de meninos pobres e um capuchinho que lhes ensinava catecismo.

        — É Pirulito... — disse Sem-Pernas.

        Pedro Bala ficou olhando. Encolheu os ombros:

        — Que adianta?

        Sem-Pernas olhou:

        — Não dá de comer...

        — Um dia vai ser padre também. Tem que ser é tudo junto.

        Sem-Pernas disse:

        — A bondade não basta.

        Completou:

        — Só o ódio...

        Pirulito não os via. Com uma paciência e uma bondade extremas ensinava às crianças buliçosas as lições de catecismo. Os dois Capitães da Areia saíram balançando a cabeça. Pedro Bala botou a mão no ombro do Sem-Pernas.

        — Nem o ódio, nem a bondade. Só a luta. A voz bondosa de Pirulito atravessa a igreja.

        A voz de ódio do Sem-Pernas estava junto de Pedro Bala. Mas ele não ouvia nenhuma. Ouvia era a voz de João de Adão, o doqueiro, a voz de seu pai morrendo na luta.

                                                         Jorge Amado, Capitães da Areia.

  Atente para as seguintes afirmações referentes ao excerto, considerado no contexto de Capitães da Areia:

  I Os termos “bondade”, “ódio” e “luta”, postos em questão no excerto, encontram-se objetivamente em relação dialética – na qual a contradição entre os dois primeiros é superada na síntese operada pelo termo “luta”, que os engloba e ultrapassa.

  II Vista no conjunto da trajetória da personagem, a cena registra um momento decisivo no processo de politização de Pedro Bala.

  III Para definir os perfis que as personagens Pirulito, Sem-Pernas e Pedro Bala assumem no excerto, as palavras-chave poderiam ser, respectivamente, ilusão, ressentimento e projeto.

  Para responder a questão, leia o seguinte texto, escrito poucos dias antes do início da última Copa do Mundo.

                                    A tão falada lição

        Passam os anos menos depressa do que dizem, quando dizem que o tempo corre. Passam mais depressa do que se pensa, quando se trata de vivê-los. São 64 anos. Por exemplo, entre este e 1950, ano de muitas agitações.

        Na política, pela volta de Getúlio, se não para redimir-se da ditadura encerrada cinco anos antes, porque ditadura nenhuma tem redenção, para um governo que, mesmo inconcluído, legou ao Brasil os instrumentos que permitiriam fazer o grande país que não foi feito – Petrobras, BNDE, uma infinidade de outros.

        Entre tantas agitações mais, lá estava a Copa do Mundo, a primeira depois da Segunda Guerra Mundial, no maior estádio do mundo, para fazer dos brasileiros os campeões mundiais.

        Nos 64 anos seguintes, Getúlio e seu governo desapareceram sob a dureza das versões degradantes e do getulismo mitológico. A Copa e seu final desastroso satisfizeram-se com explicação única e simples: fora do campo, os excessos da autoglorificação antecipada, com louvações e festejos movidos a políticos, artistas, jornalistas, a publicidade comercial; e, no campo, uma (inexistente) falha do goleiro das cores pátrias.

        Há 64 anos se repete essa ladainha de 50, como símbolo e como advertência. Quem quiser uma ideia melhor da explicação dada a 50, é fácil. Basta uma olhadela nos jornais e na TV, a gente da TV e outras gentes em visita à "concentração", a caçada a jogadores, convidados VIP para ver treinos, lá vai a estatueta ao palácio presidencial, os comandantes Felipão e Parreira são claros: "Nós já estamos com uma mão na taça". Igualzinho. Está nos genes.

  (...) plantai batatas, ó geração de vapor e de pó de pedra, *macadamizai estradas, fazei caminhos de ferro, construí passarolas de Ícaro, para andar a qual mais depressa, estas horas contadas de uma vida toda material, maçuda e grossa como tendes feito esta que Deus nos deu tão diferente do que a que hoje vivemos.

  Why don’t we take our own advice?
  Oliver Burkeman
  
  “Why is it so hard to take your own advice?” the psychology writer Melissa Dahl asked in a New York magazine essay some months ago, and the question’s been bugging me ever since. I have the arrogance to imagine that if you followed some of the suggestions made each week in this column, you might be a little happier or more productive, with a little less relationship drama, a little more inner calm. (From my email inbox, I know this happens at least occasionally.) But were you to infer from this that I follow such advice flawlessly myself, you’d be mistaken. When friends mention their difficulties with partners or bosses, Dahl wrote, she always tells them to talk to the person involved. Just say something! “And probably, this is good advice,” she mused. “I wouldn’t know, as it’s something I rarely do myself.” I can understand. I suspect most of us can. As the old wisecrack has it: “Take my advice – I’m not using it.”
  The cynical take on this is that we ignore our own advice because it’s rubbish: we give it to seem wise, when in fact it’s nonsense. (All advice to “try harder” or “snap out of it” or “look on the bright side” fall into this category: if the recipient could do so, he or she already would have, without your so-called help.)
  But a more interesting notion is that the advice is often good – yet something prevents us applying it to ourselves. One such obstacle is simply too much information: inside our own heads, we have access to all manner of details, making us believe that this relationship problem, this job dilemma, is special, so the advice doesn’t apply. Dahl cites work by the psychologist Dan Ariely, showing that when a friend gets a serious medical diagnosis, most people would urge them to get a second opinion. But were it to happen to themselves, they’d be more likely not to do so, for fear of offending their doctor. The fear of offence is something you’d think of only in your own case – and it’s totally unhelpful.
  But there’s another big reason I don’t follow my own advice: the huge gulf between grasping something intellectually and really feeling it in your bones. For example, it was years ago that I first encountered the insight that anxiety and insecurity aren’t reduced by trying to exert more control over the world; in fact, that usually makes them worse. I know this. But apparently I have to keep learning it, over and over. Its correctness isn’t sufficient for it to get into my brain once and for all; that takes repeated experience. As a result, I continue to “suddenly realise” things I already wrote an entire book about.
  If nothing else, this should be a caution against getting too frustrated with that one friend of yours who keeps getting into the same kind of pickle, time and again, deaf to the obviously good advice that everyone keeps offering. You know the type. We’ve all got a friend like that. The scary thought is that, for some of your friends, it’s probably you.

  Forget Texting While Driving: AT&T Survey reveals drivers do a lot more with their smartphones

  By Menchie Mendoza, Tech Times | May 20, 10:10 AM 

  
  

  
  

      Drivers who continue to use their smartphones while driving are not only distracted when they call and text. Apart from calling and texting, drivers are also browsing the Internet, tweeting, video chatting, taking selfies and sending email with their devices, according to a study by AT&T.
      The research was conducted as part of the carrier's "It Can Wait" campaign launched in 2010. It hopes to increase awareness of the dangers posed by using smartphones while one is behind the wheel. The study polled 2,067 U.S. residents ages 16-65 who use their smartphone and drive once or more per day.
      Seventy percent of those surveyed admit they use their smartphones for a number of activities while they are driving: 61 percent say they text and 33 percent send email while they are behind the wheel. Posting or interacting on social media is also one of the most common activities that drivers engage in. Using Facebook ranks first on the list, with 27 percent of drivers logging in while driving. Other social media channels that keep drivers "multitasking" include Instagram and Twitter (14 percent) and Snapchat (11 percent).
      The results also show that there is a deeper problem involved when people use social media while driving. Among those surveyed, 22 percent blame their addiction to social media.
      Other revelations show 62 percent keep their smartphones within easy reach, and that 30 percent of those who post to Twitter while driving do it "all the time". Drivers also don't seem to run out of other activities using their smartphones since most apps are now easily accessed with just a simple tap. Because of this, 28 percent of drivers browse the web; 17 percent take selfies (or groupies); and 10 percent video chat.
      "One in 10 say they do video chat while driving", said Lori Lee, AT&T's senior VP for global marketing. "I don't even have words for that". AT&T plans to expand the "It Can Wait" campaign in order to add more focus on the topic of texting while driving by including other driving distractions that result from using the smartphones. "When we launched 'It Can Wait' five years ago, we pleaded with people to realize that no text is worth a life", said Lee. "The same applies to other smartphone activities that people are doing while driving. For the sake of you and those around you, please keep your eyes on the road, not on your phone". AT&T will also launch a nationwide virtual reality tour in summer in order to spread the word that driving and using a smartphone don't and will never mix.
  
  
  

  Adapted from <http://www.techtimes.com/>

  Because of the results of its survey, AT&T is planning:

  
  

  1. to expand its campaign and include other smartphone distractions.

  2. to expand its campaign to other parts of the world.

  3. to improve smartphone use with new apps.

  4. to invest in a virtual reality tour as part of their awareness efforts.

                  China has created a monster it can't control
  
  By Jeremy Warner
  
        3 Sep 2015 
  
        When in trouble, shoot the messenger. This timehonoured approach to dealing with unwelcome news was much in evidence in China this week when nearly 200 people were rounded up and criminally charged with spreading “false" rumours about the stock market and the economy, or otherwise profiting from their travails.
        One luckless financial journalist was ritually paraded on state TV, tearfully confessing his “crimes". Meanwhile, the head of the Chinese desk of one London-based hedge fund group was summoned to a “meeting" with regulators, and hasn't been heard of since. Her Chinese husband says “she's gone on holiday". We can only hope it is not to the re-indoctrination of the asbestos mines. Despite the massive progress of recent decades, old habits die hard.
        China was meant to have embraced free market reform, yet these latest actions suggest an altogether different approach. Roughly summarised, it amounts to: “Reform good, but woe betide the free market if it doesn't do what the high command wants it to." When the stock market was going up, the Chinese authorities were perfectly happy to tolerate what, to virtually all Western observers, looked like a dangerously speculative bubble, vaingloriously believing it to be a fair reflection of the wondrous successes of the Chinese economy.
        The first rule of stock market investment – that share prices can go down as well as up – seems to have been almost wholly forgotten in the scramble for instant riches. When, inevitably, the stock market crashed, the authorities threw the kitchen sink at the problem, but they failed to halt the carnage. This was an even ruder awakening – for it demonstrated to an already disillusioned public that policy-makers were no longer in control of events. Perhaps they hadn't noticed, but there are today more Chinese with stock trading accounts – some 90 million – than there are members of the Communist Party – “just" 80 million. In any case, powerless before the storm, the authorities have instead turned to scapegoating.
        Apparently more liberal, advanced economies, it ought to be said, are by no means averse to this kind of behaviour either. A few years back, Italian prosecutors charged nine employees of Standard & Poor's and Fitch Rating with market abuse for daring to downgrade Italy's credit rating, while it is still commonplace in France to blame Anglo-Saxon speculators and their cronies in the London press for any financial or economic setback.
        Nor are Western governments and central bankers averse to a little market manipulation when it suits them. What is “quantitative easing" other than money printing to prop up asset prices, including stocks and shares? Chinese refusal to accept the judgments of “Mr Market", it might be argued, is just a more extreme version of the same thing. Small wonder that European officials sometimes look longingly across at the state-directed capitalism practised in China, and pronounce it a model we might perhaps aspire to ourselves.
        As recent events have demonstrated, we should not. China's stock market crash is not the work of malicious financial journalists and short-selling hedge funds, but a signal of difficult time ahead and perhaps even of an economic roadcrash to come. After nearly 35 years of spectacular progress, the Chinese economy faces multiple challenges on many fronts which are not going to be solved by denying harsh realities and imprisoning journalists.
        The progress of recent decades belies an industrial sector which in truth has become quite seriously uncompetitive by international standards. Many of China's factories need completely retooling to keep up with developments in robotics and other forms of mechanisation. Yet if industry is to get less labour intensive, this only further steepens the challenge of employment creation.
        It is reckoned that China needs to create some 20 million jobs a year just to keep pace with employment demand as the population shifts from land to town, eight million of them in high-end professions to cater for the country's burgeoning output of graduates. China's modernisation has created a monster which it is struggling to feed.
        As the export-growth story waned, China compensated by unleashing a massive investment boom, which internal demand is now struggling to keep up with, rendering many of the country's shiny new constructs uneconomic and overburdened with bad debts.
        The Chinese leadership looks to growth in consumption and service industries to plug the gap, but these new sources of demand can't do so without further free-market reform, which in turn requires further loosening of the shackles of political control. Without growth, the Communist Party loses its political legitimacy, yet the old growth model is broken, and to achieve a new one, the authorities must cede the very power and influence that sustains them. Rumour-mongering journalists and short-selling speculators can only be blamed for so long.
