According to Alves (et al., 2020), considering teaching pronunciation in English as a Foreign Language class, mark T for True statements and F for False ones.

( ) Learners have more difficulty learning sounds that are phonetically closer, because they tend not to perceive them as different.

( ) The goal of learning pronunciation is to teach learners to speak like native speakers.

( ) It is important to highlight specific differences in the vowel systems of the native language and the target language in order to avoid intelligibility problems in communication.

( ) Students need resources to be able to understand speakers with different profiles, as well as to make their speech more intelligible.

The correct sequence of True and False statements, from top to bottom, is

Celse-Murcia (2013) presents six principles related to a specific teaching methodology. Read the principles below:

I. The point of departure for developing courses and materials is the development of an inventory of learner needs rather than an inventory of phonological, lexical and grammatical items.

II. Learners develop the ability to communicate in a language through using the language rather than studying and memorizing bits of the linguistic system.

III. Learners' own personal experiences are central to the learning process.

IV. There is a focus on learning processes and strategies as well as on language content.

V. Classroom language learning is systematically linked to learning outside the classroom.

VI. Learners are exposed to authentic listening and reading texts.

According to the author, the statements above refer to the methodology known as

Paiva (2014) discusses the connectionist model in her work on second language acquisition, which is investigated by some researchers of Psycholinguistics. Read the following sentences and decide whether they are True (T) or False (F), according to the referred study.

( ) Second language acquisition is a result of repeated exposure to real language use and strengthening of neural connections.

( ) Second language learning is all about memorizing vocabulary lists and grammar rules which is the best way to strengthen the neural connections.

( ) Second language acquisition is driven by innate grammatical structures, rather than experience and input.

( ) In the connectionist model, frequency of language input plays a key role in the acquisition process.

The correct sequence of True and False statements, from top to bottom, is:

Read the following text and answer questions 34, 35 and 36.

Mpox was declared a global public health emergency by the WHO. Now what?

1 The outbreak involves a newer strain primarily seen in African countries.

2

3 The spread of a newer strain of mpox in Africa led the World Health Organization (WHO)

4 to declare the disease a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC) on

5 Wednesday.

6 This newer strain is believed to be behind an outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the

7 Congo (DRC) with more than 14,000 cases — mostly among children – and more than 500

8 deaths and has been detected in neighboring countries that had never reported cases of

9 mpox before.

10 On Thursday, Sweden became the first nation outside of the African continent to report

11 a case of the newer strain of mpox, according to the country's public health agency.

12 Cases of other strains, or clades, of mpox have popped up in other countries. In the

13 U.S., there are more than 1,600 cases reported this year so far, more than twice the number

14 seen at this time last year but not as many as seen during the outbreak in 2022-23.

15 "It's clear that a coordinated international response is essential to stop these outbreaks

16 and save lives," said WHO Director-General Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus during a media

17 briefing on Wednesday.

18 Experts told ABC News that by declaring a PHEIC, the WHO can help more countries

19 collaborate by sharing data, allocating resources and helping make vaccines more readily

20 available.

It’s like a 21st century version of Frankenstein’s monster.
Switzerland-based startup FinalSpark claims to have built a unique computer processor made from 16 mini brains developed out of human brain tissue — and they are positioning this “living computer” as an alternative to silicon-based computing. And now, other researchers can remotely access the startup’s biocomputer, the Neuroplatform, to conduct studies on, let’s say, artificial intelligence, which typically requires enormous resources.
“One of the biggest advantages of biological computing is that neurons compute information with much less energy than digital computers,” a scientist and strategic advisor wrote in a company blog post. It is estimated that living neurons can use over 1 million times less energy than the current digital processors we use. The startup takes brain organoids, small samples of human brain tissue derived from neural stem cells, and places them in a special environment that keeps these organoids alive. They then hook up these mini brains to specialized electrodes to perform computer processing and digital analog conversions to transform neural activity into digital information.
The concept of living computers has been around for quite some time now. Last year, for instance, scientists hooked up neurons to electrical circuits, resulting in a device that could perform voice recognition. These unusual machines have some noteworthy advantages over their silicon-based counterparts, including a significantly smaller carbon footprint. “This is one of the reasons why using living neurons for computations is such a compelling opportunity. Apart from possible improvements in AI model generalization, we could also reduce greenhouse emissions without sacrificing technological progress,” she said.
FinalSpark hopes other institutions will tap its Neuroplatform in order to advance biocomputer research, while positioning this tool as the next step in AI computing. As AI companies clamor for resources for data centers, with concerns growing over carbon emissions and water, it’s a novel approach that may just pay off in the long run.

Based on the preceding text, judge the item that follow.

Biocomputers are more efficient than standard computers because they take less time than the latter to process the same information.
