    Vimos, assim, que a Alma pode sofrer grandes transformações e passar ora a uma maior perfeição, ora a uma menor, paixões estas que nos explicam as afecções de alegria e de tristeza. Assim, por alegria, entenderei, no que vai seguir-se, a paixão pela qual a Alma passa a uma perfeição maior; por tristeza, ao contrário, a paixão pela qual a Alma passa a uma perfeição menor.

    Reflexões sobre o Romance Moderno


    [...] A hipótese básica em que nos apoiamos é a suposição de que em cada fase histórica exista certo Zeitgeist, um espírito unificador que se comunica a todas as manifestações de culturas em contato, naturalmente com variações nacionais. Falamos nestas páginas da “cultura ocidental”, não tomando em conta as diversificações nacionais.

    [...] A segunda hipótese sugere que se deva considerar, no campo das artes, como de excepcional importância o fenômeno da “desrealização” que se observa na pintura e que, há mais de meio século, vem suscitando reações pouco amáveis do público. O termo “desrealização” se refere ao fato de que a pintura deixou de ser mimética, recusando a função de reproduzir ou copiar a realidade empírica, sensível. Isso, sendo evidente no tocante à pintura abstrata ou não-figurativa, inclui também correntes figurativas como o cubismo, expressionismo ou surrealismo. Mesmo estas correntes deixaram de visar a reprodução mais ou menos fiel da realidade empírica. Esta, no expressionismo, é apenas “usada” para facilitar a expressão de emoções e visões subjetivas que lhe deformam a aparência; no surrealismo, fornece apenas elementos isolados, em contexto insólito, para apresentar a imagem onírica de um modo dissociado e absurdo; no cubismo, é apenas ponto de partida de uma redução a suas configurações geométricas subjacentes. Em todos os casos podemos falar de uma negação do realismo, se usarmos este termo no sentido mais lato, designando a tendência de reproduzir, de uma forma estilizada ou, não, idealizada ou não, a realidade apreendida pelos nossos sentidos.

    ROSENFELD, Anatol. Reflexões sobre o romance moderno. In:___. Texto/contexto I. 5 ed. São Paulo: Perspectiva, 1996. p. 75-97.


    O curta metragem Dossiê Rê Bordosa (2008), dirigido por Cesar Cabral, explora o lúdico como estratégia de significação. Os elementos de linguagem de animação cinematográfica e a seleção dos planos, dos movimentos e das imagens registradas/apresentadas pela câmera favorecem as (re)interpretações do real possíveis ao telespectador. Tendo como base teórica as reflexões extraídas do texto de Anatol Rosenfeld (1996), importante crítico e teórico de teatro germano-brasileiro, assinale a alternativa correta sobre essa obra audiovisual.

    Leia o seguinte trecho do conto A hora e a vez de Augusto Matraga, de Guimarães Rosa. 


    [...] E aí o jumento andou, e Nhô Augusto ainda deu um eco, para o cerrado ouvir:

    – “Qualquer paixão me adiverte...” Oh coisa boa a gente andar solto, sem obrigação nenhuma e bem com Deus!...

    E quando o jegue empacava – porque, como todo jumento, ele era terrível de queixo-duro, e tanto tinha de orelhas quanto de preconceitos, – Nhô Augusto ficava em cima, mui concorde, rezando o terço, até que o jerico se decidisse a caminhar outra vez. E também, nas encruzilhadas, deixava que o bendito asno escolhesse o caminho, bulindo com as conchas dos ouvidos e ornejando. E bastava batesse no campo o pio de uma perdiz magoada, ou viesse do mato a lália lamúria dos tucanos, para o jumento mudar de rota, perdendo à esquerda ou se empescoçando para a direita; e, por via de um gavião casaco-de-couro cruzar-lhe à frente, já ele estacava, em concentrado prazo de irresolução. ROSA, João Guimarães. A hora e a vez de Augusto Matraga. In:___. Sagarana. Nova Fronteira: Rio de Janeiro, 38 ed, 1984. p. 378.


    O conto A hora e a vez de Augusto Matraga está localizado no espaço preferido do autor Guimarães Rosa: o sertão do norte de Minas Gerais (mas há também paisagens do sul da Bahia). O espaço favorece a construção de personagens bem típicos como jagunços, peões e fazendeiros. Tanto a psique quanto a linguagem das pessoas desse lugar aparecem matizadas pelas pressões e necessidades desse ambiente. A obra, porém, não se submete ao determinismo simplista que se limita a procurar ecos da realidade social, econômica e política na configuração ideológica dos personagens. A respeito desse conto, assinale a alternativa correta.

    Leia os trechos a seguir retirados do romance Cem anos de solidão (1967), de Gabriel Garcia Marques, e assinale a alternativa correta.


    TRECHO 1

    Muitos anos depois, diante do pelotão de fuzilamento, o Coronel Aureliano Buendía havia de recordar aquela tarde remota em que seu pai o levou para conhecer o gelo.


    TRECHO 2

    [...] apesar de todo mundo considerá-lo louco, José Arcadio Segundo era naquele tempo o habitante mais lúcido da casa. Ensinou o pequeno Aureliano a ler e a escrever, iniciou-o no estudo dos pergaminhos e incutiu-lhe uma interpretação tão pessoal do que significou para Macondo a companhia bananeira que muitos anos depois, quando Aureliano se incorporasse ao mundo, haveria de se pensar que contava uma versão alucinada, porque era radicalmente contrária à falsa que os historiadores tinham admitido e consagrado nos textos escolares.


    TRECHO 3

    Muitos anos depois, esse menino haveria de continuar contando, sem que ninguém acreditasse, que tinha visto o tenente lendo com um megafone de vitrola o decreto Número 4 do Chefe Civil e Militar da província, assinado pelo General Carlos Cortes Vargas e pelo seu secretário, o Major Henrique García Isaza, que em três artigos de oitenta palavras classificava os grevistas de quadrilha de malfeitores e facultava ao exército o direito de matá-los a bala.

    [...] a máquina do mundo se entreabriu

    para quem de a romper já se esquivava

    e só de o ter pensado se carpia.


    Abriu-se majestosa e circunspecta,

    sem emitir um som que fosse impuro

    nem um clarão maior que o tolerável


    pelas pupilas gastas na inspeção

    contínua e dolorosa do deserto,

    e pela mente exausta de mentar [...]

    Mobile milestones: how your phone
    became an essential part of your life


    Imagem da questão de Inglês, UNIFESP 2017, Interpretação de texto | Reading comprehension



        Has any device changed our lives as much, and as quickly, as the mobile phone? There are people today for whom the world of address books, street atlases and phone boxes seems very far away, lost in the mists of time. Following, there are just some of the big milestones from the past 30 years that have made almost everything we do easier, more public and very, very fast.
    • The first phones arrive – and become status symbols Few people got the chance to use the very early mobile phones. The first call was made in New York in 1973, but handsets with a network to use were not available until 1983 in the US, and 1985 in the UK. That first British mobile phone was essentially a heavy briefcase with a receiver attached by a wire. It cost £2,000 (£5,000 in today’s prices), and gave you half an hour’s chat on an overnight charge. Making a call was not something you could do subtly, but that wasn’t the point; the first handsets were there to be seen. They sent a message that you were bold and confident with new technology, that you were busy and important enough to need a mobile phone, and were rich enough to buy one.
    • Text messages spawn a whole new language
        The first mobiles worked with analogue signals and could only make phone calls, but the digital ones that followed in the early 1990s could send SMS messages as well. After the first message was sent on 3 December 1992, texting took off like a rocket, even though it was still a pretty cumbersome procedure. Handsets with predictive text would make things easier, but in the 1990s you could save a lot of time by removing all excess letters from a message, often the vowels, and so txtspk ws brn. Today the average mobile phone sends more than 100 texts per month.
    • Phones turn us all into photographers...
        There seemed to be no good reason for the first camera phones, which began to appear in 2002, with resolutions of about 0.3 megapixels. They took grainy, blurry pictures on postage stamp-sized screens, and even these filled the phone’s memory in no time. Gradually, though, as the quality improved, the uses followed. As well as the usual photos of friends and family, they were handy for “saving” pieces of paper, and in pubs you could take a picture of the specials board and take it back to your table. Modern camera phones have changed beyond recognition in the past 20 years. The new mobile phones boast the highest resolution dual camera on a smartphone: a 16-megapixel camera and a 20-megapixel camera side-by-side. The dual camera allows users to focus on their subjects, while blurring out the background, producing professional-looking portraits.
    • …and we turn ourselves into celebrities
        Twenty years ago people would have thought you a little strange if you took flattering photos of yourself and your lifestyle and then distributed them to your friends – let alone to members of the public. If you used printed photographs rather than a smartphone app, they would still think so today. Yet sharing our lives on social media is now the norm, not the exception – and it was the camera phone that made it all possible. Now, some phones come with an enormous 64GB of memory, so you can capture, share and store an almost countless number of videos and pictures – well, certainly enough to keep up with the Kardashians.

Now, some phones come with an enormous 64GB of memory, so you can capture, share and store an almost countless number of videos and pictures – well, certainly enough to keep up with the Kardashians.

    became an essential part of your life

        Has any device changed our lives as much, and as quickly, as the mobile phone? There are people today for whom the world of address books, street atlases and phone boxes seems very far away, lost in the mists of time. Following, there are just some of the big milestones from the past 30 years that have made almost everything we do easier, more public and very, very fast.
    • The first phones arrive – and become status symbols Few people got the chance to use the very early mobile phones. The first call was made in New York in 1973, but handsets with a network to use were not available until 1983 in the US, and 1985 in the UK. That first British mobile phone was essentially a heavy briefcase with a receiver attached by a wire. It cost £2,000 (£5,000 in today’s prices), and gave you half an hour’s chat on an overnight charge. Making a call was not something you could do subtly, but that wasn’t the point; the first handsets were there to be seen. They sent a message that you were bold and confident with new technology, that you were busy and important enough to need a mobile phone, and were rich enough to buy one.
    • Text messages spawn a whole new language
        The first mobiles worked with analogue signals and could only make phone calls, but the digital ones that followed in the early 1990s could send SMS messages as well. After the first message was sent on 3 December 1992, texting took off like a rocket, even though it was still a pretty cumbersome procedure. Handsets with predictive text would make things easier, but in the 1990s you could save a lot of time by removing all excess letters from a message, often the vowels, and so txtspk ws brn. Today the average mobile phone sends more than 100 texts per month.
    • Phones turn us all into photographers...
        There seemed to be no good reason for the first camera phones, which began to appear in 2002, with resolutions of about 0.3 megapixels. They took grainy, blurry pictures on postage stamp-sized screens, and even these filled the phone’s memory in no time. Gradually, though, as the quality improved, the uses followed. As well as the usual photos of friends and family, they were handy for “saving” pieces of paper, and in pubs you could take a picture of the specials board and take it back to your table. Modern camera phones have changed beyond recognition in the past 20 years. The new mobile phones boast the highest resolution dual camera on a smartphone: a 16-megapixel camera and a 20-megapixel camera side-by-side. The dual camera allows users to focus on their subjects, while blurring out the background, producing professional-looking portraits.
    • …and we turn ourselves into celebrities
        Twenty years ago people would have thought you a little strange if you took flattering photos of yourself and your lifestyle and then distributed them to your friends – let alone to members of the public. If you used printed photographs rather than a smartphone app, they would still think so today. Yet sharing our lives on social media is now the norm, not the exception – and it was the camera phone that made it all possible. Now, some phones come with an enormous 64GB of memory, so you can capture, share and store an almost countless number of videos and pictures – well, certainly enough to keep up with the Kardashians.
