ATIVIDADE 1
1. Leia, abaixo, o trecho de um texto e, em
seguida, resuma, em uma sentença, a ideia central do texto.
History of engineering
The history of engineering can be
roughly divided into four overlapping phases, each marked by a revolution:
l Pre-scientific
revolution: The prehistory of modern engineering features ancient master
builders and Renaissance engineers such as Leonardo da Vinci.
l Industrial
revolution: From the XVIII through early XIX century, civil and mechanical
engineers changed from practical artists to scientific professionals.
l Second industrial revolution: In the century before World War
II, chemical, electrical, and other science-based engineering branches
developed electricity, telecommunications, cars, airplanes, and mass
production.
l Information revolution: As engineering science matured
after the war, microelectronics, computers, and telecommunications jointly
produced information technology.

Resposta: Podemos destacar que a evolução
e desenvolvimento da engenharia está de certa forma intrinsecamente ligada a
algumas revoluções e revoltas.

With more than half the world’s population now
living in urban areas and with much of the world still urbanizing, there are
concerns that urbanization is a key driver of unsustainable resource demands.
Urbanization also appears to contribute to ever-growing levels of greenhouse
gas (GHG) emissions. Meanwhile, in much of Africa and Asia and many nations
in Latin America and the Caribbean, urbanization has long outstripped local governments’
capacities or willingness to act as can be seen in the high proportion of the
urban population living in poor quality, overcrowded, illegal housing lacking
provision for water, sanitation, drainage, healthcare and schools. But there
is good evidence that urban areas can combine high living standards with
relatively low GHG emissions and lower resource demands.

This paper draws on some examples of this and
considers what these imply for urban policies in a resource-constrained
world.

These examples suggest that cities can allow high
living standards to be combined with levels of GHG emissions that are much
lower than those that are common in affluent cities today.

This can be achieved not with an
over-extended optimism on what new technologies can bring but mostly by a
wider application of what already has been shown to work.
