Gaslighting is a form of psychological abuse where a person or group makes someone question their sanity, perception of reality, or memories. People experiencing gaslighting often feel confused, anxious, and unable to trust themselves. The term gaslighting derives from the 1938 play and 1944 film “Gaslight”, in which a husband manipulates his wife into thinking she has a mental illness by dimming their gas-fueled lights and telling her she is hallucinating. While anyone can experience gaslighting, it is especially common in intimate relationships and in social interactions where there is an imbalance of power. A person who is on the receiving end of this behavior is experiencing abuse.

O trecho a seguir pertence ao romance “The Bell Jar” (A Redoma de Vidro), da escritora estadunidense Sylvia Plath. “From the tip of every branch, like a fat purple fig, a wonderful future beckoned and winked. One fig was a husband and a happy home and children, and another fig was a famous poet and another fig was a brilliant professor, (…) and beyond and above these figs were many more figs I couldn't quite make out. (…) I wanted each and every one of them, but choosing one meant losing all the rest, and, as I sat there, unable to decide, the figs began to wrinkle and go black, and, one by one, they plopped to the ground at my feet.”

There is no evidence that hydroxychloroquine helps Covid-19 patients. So why is Congress still discussing it?

By Ashish Jha

Dean of the Brown University School of Public Health

Nov 24, 2020

Last week, in the United States Senate, the conversation was all about the drug hydroxychloroquine. There has been no evidence that hydroxychloroquine improves outcomes for Covid-19 patients; some studies have found that it causes more harm than good. The hearing and the theater around it reflect the disinformation campaigns that have undermined belief in science. Neither Ron Johnson, the Wisconsin senator who is the chairman of the committee, nor his chosen witnesses showed more than a passing interest in evidence. Intuition and the personal experiences of individual doctors were the guiding principles. Early in the pandemic, President Trump referred to hydroxychloroquine as a “game changer”; “I feel good about it”, he said.

That’s not how we practice medicine. We have to protect lives through public health measures while we await widespread vaccinations. By endorsing unfounded therapies, we risk jeopardizing a century’s work of medical progress. Do we really want to go back to not using the best evidence to decide which treatments work? Do we want to let politicians prescribe our medications? Science and evidence are the tools we use to know what is true. They are the foundation of modern medicine and public health.

Com base no texto, assinale a alternativa que responde à pergunta apresentada no título do artigo.

On a summer night in 1969, police raided the Stonewall Inn, a bar in New York City that served as a haven for the city’s gay, lesbian, and transgender community. Back then, homosexual acts were illegal in every state in the USA except Illinois, and bars and restaurants could get shut down for having gay employees or serving gay patrons. Most gay bars in New York at the time (including the Stonewall) were operated by the Mafia, who paid corruptible police officers to look the other way and blackmailed wealthy gay patrons by threatening to “out” them. Police raids on gay bars were common, but on that particular night, members of the city’s LGBTQIA+ community decided to fight back, sparking an uprising that would launch a new era of resistance and revolution. Though the gay rights movement didn’t begin at Stonewall, the uprising did mark a turning point, as earlier “homophile” organizations like the Mattachine Society gave way to more radical groups like the Gay Liberation Front and the Gay Activists Alliance.

Em 2020, Joaquin Phoenix ganhou o Oscar de melhor ator por sua interpretação no filme “Coringa”, de 2019. Apresenta-se, a seguir, um trecho de seu discurso na ocasião.

“I think whether we’re talking about gender inequality or racism or queer rights or indigenous rights or animal rights, we’re talking about the fight against injustice. We’re talking about the fight against the belief that one nation, one people, one race, one gender, or one species has the right to dominate, control, and use and exploit another with impunity. I think that we’ve become very disconnected from the natural world, and many of us, what we’re guilty of, is an egocentric worldview: the belief that we’re the center of the universe. We go into the natural world, and we plunder it for its resources. We feel entitled to artificially inseminate a cow, and when she gives birth, we steal her baby even though her cries of anguish are unmistakable. Then we take her milk that’s intended for her calf, and we put it in our coffee and our cereal”.

No dia 23 de março de 2021, um navio encalhou no canal de Suez, no Egito. A embarcação tinha 400 metros de comprimento e 60 metros de largura. No ponto onde aconteceu o acidente, o canal de Suez não tem mais do que 200 metros de largura. Abaixo apresentamos uma foto de satélite e uma figura representando a situação. O ângulo !$ \alpha !$ indicado na figura abaixo mede 67,5°.

A largura do canal, medida em metros e indicada por L na figura anterior, é:

Dados:

• !$ cos(2\theta) = 2cos^2(\theta)-1 !$
• !$ sen(2\theta)=2sen(\theta)cos(\theta) !$

O polinômio !$ p(x) = 2x^3+ax^2+bx+c !$ é divisível por !$ 2x^2-x+4 !$. O valor de !$ c+2b-a !$ é:

A parábola!$ y=-x^2+bx+c !$ intercepta o eixo x nos pontos !$ (p,0) \, e \, (q,0) !$. Sabe-se que ela intercepta uma única vez cada uma das retas dadas pelas equações !$ y = 2x+1\, e \, y=1-\dfrac{x}{2} !$. O valor de !$ p+q !$ é:
