UESPI 2011 - Geografia - Regionalização Brasileira

Observe atentamente o mapa a seguir.


A região salientada no mapa com a tonalidade escura apresenta, entre outras, as seguintes características:
1) a parte oriental possui um regime de chuvas concentradas no verão, de caráter convectivo, algo que é típico das faixas de baixas latitudes.
2) a porção ocidental da região é a que apresenta IDH mais elevado, pois o processo de industrialização ocorrido nos últimos dez anos acarretou uma elevação da renda per capita anual.
3) no interior da região, há uma ampla área em que se verifica um déficit hídrico anual em face de a evaporação superar a precipitação; esse fato reflete-se na cobertura vegetal.
4) em algumas áreas de altitudes elevadas, superiores a 800m, dominam climas locais do tipo Tropical de Altitude, nos quais a temperatura nos meses de inverno cai consideravelmente.
5) nas atividades agrícolas da região, observa-se um grande contraste entre a agricultura moderna e a agricultura tradicional; na agricultura tradicional, destacam-se a cana de açúcar e o cacau.

On account of the king’s decision, women’s rights

Women all around the world are allowed to vote
Suffrage is one of the oldest issues that women’s rights activist have been fighting for. The struggle to gain suffrage is often referred to as the first wave of feminism. In 1906
Finland became the first country in the world to grant women the right to vote and stand in elections. Now, 105 years later, Saudi women have also taken a step towards equality with the decision of King Abdullah to grant the women of Saudi Arabia the right to vote and stand for election. The right for women to vote and stand in elections hasn’t always been the case in the West, for example in Switzerland women got suffrage as late as 1971.
According to the decision made by King Abdullah, Saudi women can take part in municipal elections – the only public elections in Saudi Arabia. Women will also be able to be members of the Shura Council which has the power to propose laws to the King.
The announcement has been received with mixed emotions. According to the international organization of Parliaments, IPU, the Inter-Parliamentary Union, the decision means that no country in the world now discriminates against women when it comes to electing leaders. Others remain more sceptical. For example professor and researcher Stéphane Lacroix said in an interview for French newspaper Libération that this decision does not fundamentally change Saudi society.
Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon welcomes the recent announcements. He believes that these represent an important step in the realization by women in Saudi Arabia of their fundamental civil and political rights.
It will be interesting to see how this law will be implemented and if it succeeds in advancing women’s rights in Saudi Arabia.

B

C

D

Ms. Gbowee managed to

Nobel Peace Prize Awarded to Three Activist Women
More than 250 people were nominated for the prize this year, and there had been speculation that the committee would reward activists from the Middle East who used social networking sites and other Internet platforms as they challenged entrenched dictatorships.
But if the committee had singled out the Arab Spring, it could have courted criticism that, far from rewarding efforts toward peace, it had chosen a phenomenon whose final outcome in Egypt and Tunisia is far from clear, and which has provoked bloodletting and strife in Libya, Syria, Yemen and Bahrain.
Mr. Jagland said the 2011 prize recognized those “who were there long before the world’s media was there reporting.”
The announcement in the Norwegian capital followed intense speculation that the prize would be awarded variously to a figure from the Arab Spring, the European Union or exclusively to Mrs. Johnson Sirleaf, 72, a Harvardeducated economist, who has often been cast as a pioneer in African politics.
She was broadly perceived as a reformer and peacemaker when she took office after several years in exile.
In Yemen, Ms. Karman has been widely known as a vocal opponent of the pro-American regime of Mr. Saleh since 2007, leading a human rights advocacy group called Women Journalists Without Chains. But it was only earlier this year that her readiness to take to the streets inspired thousands more in Yemen to do the same.
In Liberia, Ms. Gbowee, 39, was cited by the Nobel committee for uniting Christian and Muslim women against her country’s warlords. As head of the Women for Peace movement, she was praised for mobilizing women “across ethic and religious dividing lines to bring an end to the long war” that had raged for years in Liberia until its end in 2003 and for ensuring “women’s participation in elections.”

NFL Supports Fight Against Breast Cancer
The National Football League (NFL) is joining the American Cancer Society (ACS) to raise awareness about the importance of breast screenings and to raise money to help fight breast cancer.
NFL players, coaches and referees will wear pink during the month of October to remind women about the importance of getting mammograms and clinical breast exams to find breast cancer early, when it’s easier to treat. The program, A Crucial Catch: Annual Screening Saves Lives, is timed to coincide with National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The American Cancer Society recommends women 40 and older have a mammogram and clinical breast exam every year, and younger women have clinical breast exams periodically as well.
Hats, wristbands and other apparel worn at NFL games, and special footballs and pink coins will be auctioned off and proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society. Fans attending games are encouraged to wear pink.
The NFL also has a Web page where clubs and fans can register teams to participate in the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk. This noncompetitive, inspirational event raises awareness and funds to help end breast cancer by finding cures and supporting programs and services for all people facing the disease.
Additionally, the Society’s advocacy affiliate, the American Cancer Society Cancer Action Network (ACS CAN), is participating in Crucial Catch by encouraging Congress to allocate more funding for cancer research.

 Dentre os poemas que compõem Sol Sanguíneo, destacamos abaixo um excerto de “Mater”, que evoca uma das nossas matrizes culturais: a África. Leia o poema e analise o que se comenta a seguir.


I


De ti não há sequer
um álbum de família:


retratos da infância
nos campos de arroz e gergelim.


Talvez reste em pensamento
pedaços de tua voz


no vento
como impressões digitais
 num rio.


II
No dia em que o azul
roubou teus olhos
e o silencio rival rasgou
teu nome,
cotovias cantaram no teu rastro.
No dia em que a manhã
cerrou teus olhos.

A
O poema fala da felicidade que foi para os africanos deixarem a sua terra e embarcarem para o Brasil.
B
O poema defende que os africanos que vieram para o Brasil trouxeram intacta a memória do passado.
C
Quando os versos falam de “impressões digitais/num rio” ele se refere à solidez da água.
D
Quando lemos “De ti não há sequer/um álbum de família”, o poeta está afirmando que no século XVI ainda não havia fotografia.
E
O poema trata da violência cultural que foi praticada contra aqueles que vieram da África e do pouco que teria restado das suas memórias.
