They also crossed the Atlantic Ocean and arrived in Iceland and Greenland. They discovered North America but they also traveled east to Rússia and south to Arabia.
Os vikings navegaram pelos mares, atacaram cidades e roubaram tesouros por toda a Europa entre 800 e 1100. Eles começaram na Escandinávia e atacaram muitos países na Europa. Eles se estabeleceram na Grã-Bretanha, Irlanda e França. Eles também cruzaram o Oceano Atlântico e chegaram à Islândia e à Groenlândia. Eles descobriram a América do Norte, mas também viajaram para o leste até a Rússia e para o sul até a Arábia.
They were good farmers and excelient shipbuilders. They used their ships for war. They also used them to carry people and goods to new lands. In winter, when there was not much farm work to do, they stayed home and did other interesting jobs. Men made swords to use them in battle. The Vikings liked swords so much they often decorated them with gold and gave them names. Women cooked and made clothes, shoes, and jewelry for themselves,______ children and husbands.
Eles eram bons fazendeiros e excelentes construtores de navios. Eles usavam seus navios para a guerra. Eles também os usavam para transportar pessoas e mercadorias para novas terras. No inverno, quando não havia muito trabalho agrícola para fazer, eles ficavam em casa e faziam outros trabalhos interessantes. Os homens faziam espadas para usá-las em batalha. Os vikings gostavam tanto de espadas que frequentemente as decoravam com ouro e davam nomes a elas. As mulheres cozinhavam e faziam roupas, sapatos e joias para si mesmas, ______ filhos e maridos.
In 866 the Vikings captured an Anglo-Saxon town. They called it Jorvik and it was the capital of the Viking kingdom for 200 years. They made Jorvik rich and one of the most famous cities in Britain. Some years ago, archeologists discovered part of that Viking town in York, the modern city of Jorvik. They found many things such as jewelry, coins and clothes. If you ever go to York and you want to travel back in time and see how the Vikings lived, visit the Jorvik Centre!

 TEXTO 1:
Social media ’destroying how society works"
As mídias sociais estão "destruindo o funcionamento da sociedade"

former Facebook executive has said social media is doing great harm to society around the world. The executive is a man called Chamath Palihapitiya. He _________ Facebook in 2007 and _________a vice president. He was responsible for increasing the number of users Facebook had. Mr Palihapitiya said he feels very guilty about getting more people to use social networks. He said the networks are destroying society because they are changing people"s behavior. Twenty years ago, people talked to each other face to face. Today, people message each other and do not talk. People also really care about what other people think of them. They post photos and wait to see how many people like the photo. They get very sad if people do not like the photo.
Um ex-executivo do Facebook disse que a mídia social está causando grandes danos à sociedade em todo o mundo. O executivo é um homem chamado Chamath Palihapitiya. Ele _________ Facebook em 2007 e _________ vice-presidente. Ele foi responsável por aumentar o número de usuários que o Facebook tinha. O Sr. Palihapitiya disse que se sente muito culpado por fazer com que mais pessoas usem as redes sociais. Ele disse que as redes estão destruindo a sociedade porque estão mudando o comportamento das pessoas. Vinte anos atrás, as pessoas falavam umas com as outras cara a cara. Hoje, as pessoas trocam mensagens e não falam. As pessoas também se importam muito com o que as outras pessoas pensam delas. Elas postam fotos e esperam para ver quantas pessoas gostam da foto. Elas ficam muito tristes se as pessoas não gostam da foto.
Mr. Palihapitiya said people should take a long break from social media so they can experience real life. He wants people to value each other instead of valuing online "hearts, likes, and thumbs-up". Palihapitiya also points out how fake news is affecting how we see the world, it is becoming easier for large websites to spread lies. It is also becoming easier to hurt other people online. Anyone can hide behind a fake user name and post lies about other people. Palihapitiya said this was a global problem. He is worried about social media so much that he has banned his children from using it. However, he did state that Facebook was a good company. He said: "Of course, it"s not all bad. Facebook overwhelmingly does good in the world."
O Sr. Palihapitiya disse que as pessoas deveriam dar um longo tempo das mídias sociais para que pudessem experimentar a vida real. Ele quer que as pessoas valorizem umas às outras em vez de valorizar "corações, curtidas e polegares para cima" online. Palihapitiya também aponta como as notícias falsas estão afetando a forma como vemos o mundo, está se tornando mais fácil para grandes sites espalharem mentiras. Também está se tornando mais fácil machucar outras pessoas online. Qualquer um pode se esconder atrás de um nome de usuário falso e postar mentiras sobre outras pessoas. Palihapitiya disse que esse era um problema global. Ele está tão preocupado com as mídias sociais que proibiu seus filhos de usá-las. No entanto, ele afirmou que o Facebook era uma boa empresa. Ele disse: "Claro, nem tudo é ruim. O Facebook faz o bem esmagadoramente no mundo."

TRAVEL TIPS

How to Plan a Movie-Themed Vacation
It’s easier than you may expect to find, visit, and enjoy the
places where your favorite movies were made.
Lars Leetaru
By Shivani Vora
March 8, 2018

Whether it’s the “Lord of the Rings” trilogy in New Zealand or "Roman Holiday” in Rome, many noteworthy movies are filmed in appealing locales all over the world that travelers may want to visit and enjoy.

According to Angela Tillson, a film location manager in Kauai who has worked on the set of films including "Jurassic Park: The Lost World” and “The Descendants," exploring a beloved movie set destination through the eyes of the film makes for an enjoyable vacation. "Seeing a place with a focus on a movie you love will give you a perspective that the average tourist doesn’t usually get. You’ll certainly have a better impression of the place,” she said. Here are her tips to get started.

Choose Your Destination

If there’s a movie you love, you can find out where it was filmed by looking at the credits at the end of the film or by going online to The Internet Movie Database, also known as IMDB, which often lists filming locations. Once you know the locale, you can start planning your trip. Or, consider doing what Ms. Tillson often does when deciding on where to vacation: pick a spot you’re interested in
visiting, and find out what movies have been filmed there. “It’s fun to sometimes let a destination determine the movie you're going to live rather than the other way around,” Ms. Tillson said.

Get in the Mood

Before you head to your destination, be sure to rewatch the movie. A rewatch not only reminds you of identifiable spots to look out for during your trip, but it also adds to the excitement of your upcoming exploration. If the movie is based on a book, consider reading the
book, too. It may have details about the locale that the movie doesn’t touch on. Also, books often have scenes that don’t make it into the movie adaptations, which gives you a deeper view of the destination. Ms. Tillson also recommended downloading the movie’s soundtrack or score, and listening to it throughout your trip.

Book a Themed Trip

Some travel companies sell set itineraries focused on popular movies. Luxury tour operator Zicasso, for example, has an eight-day trip, all inclusive, to Ireland inspired by "Star Wars: The Last Jedi” and Wild Frontiers has an eleven-day trip to India inspired by "The Best Exotic
Marigold Hotel." Ms. Tillson suggested doing a web search or checking with a travel agent to find out about such trips. Also, in some destinations, local tour operators and hotels sell movie-themed tours. For instance, The St. Regis Priceville Resort offers a tour that includes a private helicopter ride to Manawaiopuna Falls, made famous in "Jurassic Park,” and an ATV tour of filming locations of movies such as “Raiders of the Lost Ark" and “Pirates of the Caribbean.” Lunch is even included. The cost is $5,674 for two adults.

A more affordable option, in Rome, is the four-hour “Roman Holiday" themed excursion from HR Tours, where travelers ride a Vespa with a driver and see ail the sites from the movie; the cost is 170 euros per person.

Hang Where the Movie Crew Did

When they’re not working, movie crews enjoy hitting local bars and casual restaurants that serve tasty local cuisine, Ms. Tillson said.
Find out where the behind-the-scenes staff of your film spent their time by asking your destination’s tourist board or your hotel’s concierge, and check out a few of the spots. “It’s another way to get involved in the film and spend time in bars and restaurants that you wouldn’t normally think to hit,” she said.

STEPHEN HAWKING

Stephen Hawking, one of the most famous scientists of the 21st century, died on March 14th, 2018. But his ideas on gravity, black holes and the Big Bang are the greatest legacy he left to the world.

Early Life and College

On January 8th, 1942, Stephen Hawking was born to a successful family in Oxford, England. He was not the best student at fundamental or high school, but he was very smart. His dad wanted him to become a medical doctor, but Stephen really wanted to study math.

Despite his poor grades at school, Stephen aced his exams for college. He was admitted to Oxford University, but they didn't have math as a major. So, he decided to study physics and chemistry instead.

Stephen became a member of a rowing team when he was in college. After he graduated, he decided to continue his education and went to graduate school.

Graduate School, Marriage and Health Problems

While in graduate school, he had some health problems. He began tripping for no reason, and his speech became hard to understand. His family encouraged him to go to the doctor. Stephen was diagnosed with a disease called ALS, or Lou Gehrig's disease, which affects the brain and spine. He was only twenty one, and the doctors initially gave him only a few years to live. Luckily, his condition progressed more slowly than is often the case.

During this time, Stephen had a relationship with a woman named Jane. He said she and his work were his inspiration for living. Stephen earned his Ph.D. degree in 1965. He started to get worse, and eventually became confined to a wheelchair. Nonetheless, he and Jane married in 1965 and were able to have three children.

He studied how space and time are related, including scientific studies of black holes in space and how they work in the universe. He also had a lot of success in his work as a college professor.

A New Voice

In 1985, Stephen got really sick and doctors were able to save him, but he was unable to speak. He could only use his eyebrows to communicate. Eventually, he was able to use a special voice synthesizer, allowing him to talk by moving his cheek muscles and using a mouse pad.

Famous Works and Prizes

His most notorious theory is that black holes can emit radiation; also known as Hawking radiation. He received numerous awards but never won the Nobel Prize.

Stephen always enjoyed writing books. His best seller, “A Brief History in Time” made terms like the Big Bang and black holes easy to understand. Other famous Stephen Hawking books include: “A Briefer History in Time", “On the Shoulders of Giants” and "The Universe in a Nutshell". He also wrote many books for children along with his daughter Lucy. His famous books for children include "George’s Cosmic Treasure Hunt" and “George and the Big Bang”.
His last work, submitted only two weeks before his death, reveals the universe will come to an end when stars run out of energy. However, his theory suggests that scientists will be able to find parallel universes using probes on spaceships.
