Questão 5CebraspeCBM/AL COMBATENTE2017
Learning a second language as an adult is difficult. 1 But the process may be eased if you exercise while learning. A new study reports that working out during a language class amplifies people’s ability to memorize, retain and understand 4 new vocabulary. The findings provide more evidence that to activate our minds, we should move our bodies. Many scientists suspect that exercise alters the biology 7 of the brain in ways that make it more malleable and receptive to new information, a process that scientists refer to as plasticity. 10 However, these studies do not suggest that schools or teachers should buy bicycles for students to exercise during class. A simpler message may be that instruction should be 13 alternated with physical activity. Sitting for hours and hours without moving is not the best way to learn. Internet: <www.nytimes.com> (adapted).
Scientists use the term “plasticity” ( R .10) to describe the process through which the brain becomes incapable of acquiring a second language.

Questão 7CebraspeCBM/AL COMBATENTE2017
As anyone who has begun an exercise program knows, the relationships between exercise, appetite, weight control and hunger are complex and often counterintuitive. The arithmetic involved seems straightforward. You burn calories during exercise and, over time, should drop kilos. Yet the reality is more annoying. In both scientific studies and the world inhabited by the rest of us, most people who start exercising lose fewer pounds than would be expected. The problem with exercise as a weight-loss strategy seems to be in large part that it can make you hungry, and many of us wind up consuming more calories after a workout than we torched during it. In any case, doctors point out that we should exercise, whether or not the activity makes us thin. There are many other reasons, irrespective of the effects on appetite, why exercise benefits health. Internet: <www.nytimes.com> (adapted).
In the context, the word “Yet” ( R .5) conveys the same idea as the expression up until now.
