Girls play outside in nature less than boys do, even at the age of two, according to the first national survey of play among preschool-age children in Britain. While researchers expect to see older children socialised to particular gender roles, they were shocked to see similar patterns of behaviour starting to emerge at such a young age. They fear it could have long-term implications for girls’ health, as girls are less physically active as they get older and are more likely than boys to have difficulties with their mental health.

The study also found that preschool-age children from a minority ethnic background play less outdoors than their white counterparts, and children in urban areas play less outdoors than those in rural areas. “The results highlight inequalities in play even in the youngest age group, which may exacerbate existing inequalities in health,” the report concluded.

The research surveyed more than 1,100 parents and carers of children aged two, three and four. They found that preschool children spent approximately four hours a day at play, of which one hour and 45 minutes was spent playing outdoors, mainly in back gardens at home. Away from home, children played in playgrounds and green spaces, with the most adventurous play usually associated with indoor play centres.

“The popularity of these play centers is growing,” the report said. “This may be driven by indoor play centres providing adventurous play experiences that overcome some of the barriers to outdoor adventurous play such as traffic, weather and safety concerns.”

De acordo com o texto abaixo, leia e responda:

The advantages ofspeaking a second language.

Just a few generations ago, speaking two languages was supposed to be bad for you. Tests in America found that bilingual people had lower iqs, which seemed evidence enough. Later it became clear that those surveys were really measuring the material poverty of immigrants; members ofsuch families were more likely to be undernourished and understimulated, not to mention the obvious fact that they often sat the tests in a language that was not their best.

Qual era uma ideia equivocada sobre o bilinguismo há algumas gerações, de acordo com o trecho?

A)

Acreditava-se que pessoas bilíngues tinham QIs mais altos.

B)

Acredita-se que o bilinguismo não tinha impacto na inteligência.

C)

Supunha-se que indivíduos bilíngues tinham QIs mais baixos.

D)

Considerava-se o bilinguismo irrelevante para o desenvolvimento intelectual.

Text CB1A2

Spending time in space and having an unrivalled view of planet Earth is an experience many of us dream of, but the human body evolved to function in the gravity of Earth. So fully recovering from spending time in the weightlessness of space can take years.

“It’s a fact that space is by far the most extreme environment that humans have ever encountered and we’ve just not evolved to handle the extreme conditions,” Professor Damian Bailey, who studies human physiology, says. To begin with, the heart and blood vessels have an easier time as they no longer have to pump blood against gravity — and they start to weaken. And the bones become weaker and more brittle. There should be a balance between the cells breaking down old bone and those making new, but that balance is disrupted without the feedback and resistance of working against gravity. “Every month, about 1% of bones and muscles are going to wither away — it’s accelerated ageing,” Professor Bailey says.

Microgravity also distorts the vestibular system, which is how you balance and sense which way is up. In space, there is no up, down or sideways. It can be disorientating when you go up — and again when you return to Earth.

James Gallagher. What nine months in space does to the human body.

Internet: <bbc.com> (adapted).

Considering the second paragraph of text CB1A2, choose the correct option.

A)

In the excerpt ‘it’s accelerated ageing’, the word ‘it’ is a singular pronoun replacing ‘1% of bones and muscles’.

B)

In the fragment ‘It’s a fact that space is by far the most extreme environment that humans have ever encountered’, ‘that’ is a pronoun replacing the word ‘It’.

C)

In “Professor Damian Bailey, who studies human physiology”, omitting the comma would not change the meaning of the fragment or harm its correctness.

D)

In the fragment “There should be a balance between the cells breaking down old bone and those making new”, the word “those” refers to the cells that make bones smaller.

E)

In the second sentence of the paragraph, both occurrences of the pronoun “they” refer to “the heart and blood vessels”.
