PASSAGE  1 

AMERICAN INDIAN CODE TALKERS

 

[1]     What is a code talker? A code talker is the name given to American Indians who used their tribal language to 
send secret communications on the battlefield. Most people have heard of the famous Navajo (or Diné) code 
talkers who used their traditional language to transmit secret Allied messages in the Pacific theater of combat 
during World War II. But did you know that there were at least 14 other Native nations, including the Cherokee 
[5] and Comanche, that served as code talkers in both the Pacific and Europe during the war?  The idea of using 
American Indians who were fluent in both their traditional tribal language and in English to send secret 
messages in battle was first put to the test in World War I with the Choctaw Telephone Squad and other Native 
communications experts and messengers. However, it wasn’t until World War II that the US military developed a 
specific policy to recruit and train American Indian speakers to become code talkers.  
[10]     The US Army was the first branch of the military that began recruiting code talkers from places like Oklahoma 
in 1940. Apart from basic training, these men had to develop and memorize a unique military code using their 
mostly unwritten language, and were placed in a guarded room until this task was completed. The first type of 
code they created, Type 1 code, consisted of 26 Navajo terms that stood for individual English letters that could 
be used to spell out a word. For instance, the Navajo word for “ant”, “wo-la-chee”, was used to represent the 
[15] letter “a” in English. Type 2 code contained words that could be directly translated from English into Navajo. For 
instance, since there was no existing Navajo word for “submarine”, the code talkers agreed to use the term 
besh-lo, which translates to “iron fish.” Despite their heroic contributions during the war, American Indian code 
talkers were told that they had to keep their work secret. While there was some recognition in the 1970s and 
1980s, it wasn’t until 2001 that Congressional Gold Medals were given to the Navajo and other code talkers.

According to the passage, a code-talker is

Artur desenhou no plano cartesiano um esboço da sua área de piquetes na escala 1:10000 centímetros para produção bovina. O esboço contém um polígono cujos vértices são as coordenadas (0, 0), (0, 8), (8, 8) e (8, 0). Dentro desse polígono, há uma circunferência inscrita de centro (4, 4) que tangencia os lados dele. Um octógono é circunscrito ao polígono inicial, de tal forma que os vértices desse polígono tangenciam o octógono em 4 de seus vértices; já os outros vértices do octógono possuem coordenadas descritas por (-2, 4), (4, -2), (10, 4) e (4, 10).

 

Se nas áreas triangulares e também na área circular formadas pelo esboço, será criado em cada 1000m² um bezerro, podem ser criados no máximo quantos bezerros nesses piquetes?

Duas circunferências de raios cm e cm têm a distância entre seus centros dada por:

 

 

Assim, a posição relativa entre essas circunferências são:

A questão refere-se ao poema “Entrega”, de Rubenio Marcelo, transcrito na sequência.

 

Poesia, Poesia...
 em teu espírito
 entrego as minhas mãos...

 [em tréguas
 minhas razões,
 minhas ações e negações].

 Poesia,
 que    unificados    em    tua    essência    
renasçam os grãos
 caídos entre os espinhos...

(MARCELO, Rubenio. “Entrega”. Vias do infinito ser. Campo Grande: Letra livre, 2017. p. 146)

Emerge no/do poema, um efeito de ambiguidade, seja entre o dizer e o silenciar, seja numa referência à sabedoria (filosófica ou poética) que sugere em vez de afirmar, seja na sugestão de um subentendido gesto de discrição ou humildade.

 

Em qual das alternativas se indica(m) o(s) recurso(s) linguístico(s) empregado(s) na produção desses sentidos?

Nanotechnology refers to the branch of science and engineering devoted to designing, producing, and using structures, devices, and systems by manipulating atoms and molecules at nanoscale, i.e. having one or more dimensions of the order of 100 nanometres (100 millionth of a millimetre) or less.

In the natural world, there are many examples of structures with one or more nanometre dimensions, and many technologies have incidentally involved such nanostructures for many years, but only recently it has been possible to do it intentionally.

Many of the applications of nanotechnology involve new materials that have very different properties and new effects compared to the same materials made at larger sizes. This is due to the very high surface to volume ratio of nanoparticles compared to larger particles, and to effects that appear at that small scale but are not observed at larger scales.

The applications of nanotechnology can be very beneficial and have the potential to make a significant impact on society. Nanotechnology has been embraced by industrial sectors, such as the information and communications sectors, but it is also used in food technology, energy technology, as well as in some medical products and medicines. Nanomaterials may also offer new opportunities for the reduction of environmental pollution.

But, these new materials should also present new health risks. Humans have developed mechanisms of protection against various environmental agents of different sizes. However, until recently, they had never been exposed to synthetic nanoparticles and their specific characteristics. Therefore, the normal human defense mechanisms associated with, for example, immune and inflammatory systems may well not be able to respond adequately to these nanoparticles. In addition, nanoparticles may also disperse and persist in the environment, and therefore have an impact on the environment.
