Instrução: Leia o texto Status of same-sex marriage para responder a questão.

                                                 Status of same-sex marriage
South America

Argentina
The Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (a federal district and capital city of the republic) allows same-sex civil unions.
The province of Rio Negro allows same-sex civil unions, too.
Legislation to enact same-sex marriage across all of Argentina was approved on July 15, 2010.

Brazil
A law that would allow same-sex civil unions throughout the nation has been debated. Until the end of the first semester of 2010 the Supremo Tribunal Federal had not decided about it.

Colombia
The Colombian Constitutional Court ruled in February 2007 that same-sex couples are entitled to the same inheritance rights as heterosexuals in common-law marriages. This ruling made Colombia the first South American nation to legally recognize gay couples. Furthermore, in January 2009, the Court ruled that same-sex couples must be extended all of the rights offered to cohabitating heterosexual couples.

Ecuador
The Ecuadorian new constitution has made Ecuador stand out in the region. Ecuador has become the first country in South America where same sex civil union couples are legally recognized as a family and share the same rights of married
heterosexual couples.

Uruguay
Uruguay became the first country in South America to allow civil unions (for both opposite-sex and same-sexcouples) in a national platform on January 1, 2008. Children can be adopted by same-sex couples since 2009.

                                                                                                                                    (http://en.wikipedia.org/. Adaptado.)
A
As uniões civis entre pessoas do mesmo sexo são válidas somente em Buenos Aires e na província de Rio Negro.
B
Os casais do mesmo sexo provavelmente ainda não têm todos os direitos dos casais heterossexuais.
C
A província de Rio Negro foi a região onde uniões civis entre pessoas do mesmo sexo foram aprovadas mais recentemente.
D
Em Buenos Aires as leis para uniões civis entre pessoas do mesmo sexo são diferentes do restante do país.
E
Os casais homossexuais poderão ter exatamente os mesmos deveres dos casais heterossexuais.

Qual das orações a seguir melhor se encaixa na sequência do texto, como um terceiro parágrafo?

Instrução: Leia o texto a seguir para responder a questão.

Two of the greatest obstacles that comics have in reaching readers are exposure and cost. Fortunately, the internet has provided remedies for both. Many comic book creators and publishers have put their comics online, available as full issues and at absolutely no cost to the reader. And unlike torrents or scanned files, these comics are completely legal. Here I have endeavored to collect as many of these as possible, now totalling over 300 full issues and stories, in one place.
Whether you have been meaning to try a new title, or if you’ve never read a comic in your life, there’s still something here for everyone. Follow a link or two or three. Some comics that I especially recommend carry an asterisk, but I haven’t come close to reading everything here. Maybe you’ll find something you enjoy.

A
If you have never read a comic book in your life, you’ll probably find it very difficult to understand the books in this collection.
B
If you know of more online comics I could add to the list, or discover that any of these links have gone bad, please contact me by e-mail.

If you like funny stories, click on one of the five links below and buy as many free books as you want, at excellent prices.
D
If you like funny stories and want to e-mail the publishers to complain, this is considered totally legal.
E
If you have read a total of 300 stories in your life, you’ll probably find it very difficult to enjoy the books in this collection.

Calling occupants of interplanetary craft

Calling occupants of interplanetary most extraordinary craft

We’ve been observing your earth

And one night we’ll make a contact with you

And please come in peace, we beseech you

Only a landing will teach them

Our earth may never survive

So do come, we beg you

Give us a sign that we’ve reached you


With your mind you have ability to form

And transmit thought energy far beyond the norm

You close your eyes, you concentrate

Together that’s the way

To send the message

We declare world contact day

Qual dos fatos listados constitui, segundo o texto, uma experiência científica sobre a possibilidade de vida em outros planetas?

Instrução: Leia o texto Is there life on other planets? para responder a  questão.


                                              Is there life on other planets?


                                                                                                              Hans Bodlaender


      There are many science fiction movies, television series and books about creatures from other planets. In most of these books and movies, aliens have spaceships that allow them to travel between different star systems, and on planets in these other systems, intelligent creatures live and look like people, but are different. We all know that reality is different from books. Physics tells us that strange things happen when we travel with a speed somewhat close to the speed of light – and, if modern physics is correct, it is impossible for humans to travel between star systems. If other creatures live on other planets, then they have to face the same type of problems, so it seems impossible for them to travel from their planets to ours. If there are intelligent creatures living on planets in other star systems, it seems, according to modern science, that we won’t meet them.

      If there is life on other planets, how did it originate? I see three hypotheses:


1. On the other planet, life started in the same way as the evolution theory says that it started here. Apart from the fact that the evolution theory is not the well-rounded and totally scientifically proven theory that people want us to believe, in general, followers of the theory tell that the chance of life starting on a planet is rather small. A term sometimes used is: A magnificent accident. I believe the probability is even smaller than they say, too small to assume that it actually can have happened by accident, but even if you believe life on earth was such a magnificent accident, the chances that this has happened more than once are too small to assume that it may have happened.


2. Life on different planets has a common origin. Say, some very primitive form of life originated somewhere travels to another planet, developing there into an intelligent form of life. There are quite a lot of questions to be asked of such a theory, and, again, calculating the probabilities seems to make it unlikely.


3. Life on earth has been created by God. Possibly, God has also created life on other planets. If God has created life on earth, he may have created life on other planets too. As far as I can tell, the Bible does not say anything about this, so this remains possible. If there are intelligent beings on other planets, I would assume they would know God. Would they also have a fall to sin, like the humans? Would we meet them in heaven? Would there be atheists and religious extraterrestrials? We cannot know.


      So, if there are extra-terrestrial intelligent beings, or, even, other types of life on planets outside our solar system, then to me, that would be a new proof of the existence of God. But I cannot understand atheists that sincerely state they follow standard evolution theory and are at the same moment on a search for intelligent life on other planets.


      Finally, is there life on other planets in our solar system? Well, I guess, yes: probably on Mars, there now will be bacteria brought to the planet from earth by one of the Mars-expeditions that were recently carried out.
