YES, BIG BROTHER IS WATCHING

George Orwell, in case you didn"t know it, was a genius. His legendary novel, 1984, written at the end of the 1940s, offered a chillingly prophetic vision of a future in which "Big Brother" watched your every move. The surveillance was conducted through television sets, which were omnipresent. When the real 1984 came around 35 years later, it was observed that "In Orwell"s novel, television watched everybody: in reality today everybody watches television". But this witty observation was made about a decade before the advent of the Internet. If Orwell"s book were to be rewritten, with citizens being monitored by their web activity, rather than by television, then you would have a nightmare vision of a world that is already coming into existence.

It was the summer that men first walked on the moon. I was very young back then, but I did not believe there would ever be future. I wanted to live dangerously, to push myself as far as I could go, and then see what happened to me when I got there. As it turned out, I ¹nearly did not make it. Little by little, I saw my money dwindle to zero; I lost my apartment; I wound up living in the streets. If not for a girl named Kitty Wu, I probably ²would have starved to death. ³I had met her by chance only a short time before, but ⁴eventually I came to see that chance as a form of readiness a way of saving myself through the minds of others. That was the first part. From then on, strange things happened to me. I took the job with the old man in the wheelchair. I found out who my father was. I walked across the desert from Utah to California. That was a long time ago, of course, but I remeber them as the beginning of my life.

Texto 1: Teen depression

            Depression is defined as an illness when the feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and despair persist and interfere with a child or adolescent's ability to function.

            Though the term "depression" can describe a normal human emotion, it also can refer to a mental health illness. Depressive illness in children and teens is defined when the feelings of depression persist and interfere with a child or adolescent's ability to function.

            Depression is common in teens and younger children. About 5 percent of children and adolescents in the general population suffer from depression at any given point in time. Children under stress, who experience loss, or who have attentional, learning, conduct or anxiety disorders are at a higher risk for depression. Teenager girls are at especially high risk, as are minority youth. Depressed youth often have problems at home. In many cases, the parents are depressed, as depression tends to run in families. Over the past 50 years, depression rises, so does the teen suicide rate.

            It is important to remember that the behavior of depressed children and teenagers may differ from the behavior of depressed adults. The characteristics vary, with most children and teens having additional psychiatric disorders, such as behavior disorders or substance abuse problems.

            Mental health professionals advise parents to be aware of signs of depression in their children. Some of these signs may be: frequent sadness, tearfulness, crying; hopelessness; decreased interest in activities or inability to enjoy previously favorite activities; persistent boredom; low energy; social isolation; poor communication; poor concentration; extreme sensitivity to rejection or failure, and increased irritability, anger, or hostility; among others.

Texto 2: Adolescent Depression: Helping depressed teens

            It's not unusual for young people to experience "the blues" or feel "down in the dumps" occasionally. Adolescence is always an unsetting time, with the many physical, emotional, psychological and social changes that accompany this stage of life.

            Unrealistic academic, social, or family expectations can create a strong sense of rejections and can lead to deep disappointment. When things go wrong at schools or at home, teens often overreact. Many young people feel that life is not fair or that things  "never go their way." They feel "stressed out" and confused. To make matters worse, teens are bombarded by conflicting messages from parents, friends and society. Today's teens see more of what life has to offer - both good and bad - on television, at school, in magazines and on the Internet. They are also forced to learn about the threat of AIDS, even if they are not sexually active or using drugs.

            Teens need adult guidance more than ever to understand all the emotional and physical changes they are experiencing. When teens' moods disrupt their ability to function on a day-to-day basis, it may indicate a serious emotional or mental disorder that needs attention - adolescent depression. Parents or caregivers must take action.

            Depressions can be difficult to diagnose in teens because adults may expect teens to act moody. Also, adolescents do not always understand or express their feelings very well. They may not be aware of the symptoms of depression and may not seek help.

ESCREVO-LHE ESTA CARTA...

Um ano depois, programa de alfabetização no Acre apresenta resultados acima da média e, como prova final, bilhetes comoventes

Repleto de adultos lançado recém-lançado-alfabetizados, o Teatro Plácido de Castro, na capital do Acre, Rio Branco, quase veio abaixo com a leitura do bilhete escrito pela dona de casa Sebastiana Costa para o marido: "Manoel, eu fui para aula. Se quiser comida esquente. Foi eu que escrevi". Atordoada com os aplausos, a franzina Sebastiana desceu do palco com a cabeça baixa e os ombros encurvados.

Casada há trinta anos e mãe de oito filhos, ela só descontraiu um pouco quando a ministra do Meio Ambiente, Marina Silva, comentou que o bilhete não precisava ser interpretado como um desaforo, embora passasse um sentimento de libertação. Alfabetizada apenas aos dezessete anos, a ministra Marina conhece como poucos o drama daqueles que não são capazes de decifrar o letreiro de um ônibus ou de rabiscar uma simples mensagem.

Questão 26001

ESTRADAS DE RODAGEM

Comparados os países com veículos, veremos que os Estados Unidos são uma locomotiva elétrica; a Argentina um automóvel; o México uma carroça; e o Brasil um carro de boi.

O primeiro destes países voa; o segundo corre a 50 km por hora; o terceiro apesar das revoluções tira 10 léguas por dia; nós...

Nós vivemos atolados seis meses do ano, enquanto dura a estação das águas, e nos outros 6 meses caminhamos à razão de 2 léguas por dia. A colossal produção agrícola e industrial dos americanos voa para os mercados com a velocidade média de 100 km por hora. Os trigos e carnes argentinas afluem para os portos em autos e locomotivas que uns 50 km por hora, na certa, desenvolvem.

As fibras do México saem por carroças e se um general revolucionário não as pilha em caminho, chegam a salvo com relativa presteza. O nosso café, porém, o nosso milho, o nosso feijão e a farinha entram no carro de boi, o carreiro despede-se da família, o fazendeiro coça a cabeça e, até um dia! Ninguém sabe se chegará, ou como chegará. Às vezes pensa o patrão que o veículo já está de volta, quando vê chegar o carreiro.

- Então? Foi bem de viagem?

O carreiro dá uma risadinha.

- Não vê que o carro atolou ali no Iriguaçu e...

- E o quê?

- ... e está atolado! Vim buscar mais dez juntas de bois para tirar ele.

E lá seguem bois, homens, o diabo para desatolar o carro. Enquanto isso, chove, a farinha embolora, a rapadura derrete, o feijão caruncha, o milho grela; só o café resiste e ainda aumenta o peso.
