16) CORRETA.
18. Choose the alternative(s) in which the information
about the words from text 1 is correct.
01) “It is very likely” (line 9) is the same as “It’s

02) “several” (line 9) is a quantifier which derives
from the adjective “severe” (line 16).
04) In the extract “Extreme weather events were
devastating in their impacts ...” (lines 14 and
15), the underlined words are an example of
the present progressive tense.
08) “increase” (line 26) and “rises” (line 27) both
mean “become larger in amount, number, or
degree”.
16) The extract “... if average temperature rises,
then so will the number of heat records.”

Resposta: 25 - nível médio
01) CORRETA.
02) INCORRETA. O quantificador “several” quer dizer
“vários”, enquanto “severe” significa “severo”, assim
não tem nenhuma relação entre eles.
04) INCORRETA. Apesar da palavra “devastating” ter
o sufixo “ing” não pode ser classificada como um
verbo, pois no contexto ela é um adjetivo.
08) CORRETA.
16) CORRETA.

TEXT 2
Stress
Stress is your body’s response to the demands
placed upon it. A little stress is a good thing, but
too much can have devastating consequences for
your health and relationships.
Everyone needs a certain amount of stress to
live well. It’s what gets you out of bed in the
morning and gives you the vitality to do all sorts
of things.
Stress becomes a problem when there’s too
much or too little. A lack of stress means your
body is understimulated, leaving you feeling
bored and isolated. In an effort to find stimulation,
many people do things that are harmful to
themselves (such as taking drugs) or society (for
instance, committing a crime).
However, too much stress, can result in a
range of health problems including headaches,
stomach upsets, high blood pressure and even
stroke or heart disease. It can also cause feelings
of distrust, anger, anxiety and fear.
People often feel over-stressed as a result of
some event. This doesn’t have to be negative
(such as the death of a loved one, redundancy or
divorce); it can also be seemingly positive (a new
partner, new job or going on holiday).
Among the bad stressbusters, it is possible to
mention drinking alcohol, denying the problem,
taking drugs, overeating and smoking cigarettes.
On the other hand, the good techniques to avoid
stress are taking a nap; getting a massage;
expressing yourself artistically; having a laugh;
being gentle to yourself; and making use of
meditation and relaxation techniques.
