The suitable answer to this question is:
"It’s made of rubber."
"It’s made of wool."
"It’s made of cloth."
"It’s made of paper."
"It’s made of wood."
Holden (2009, p. 74) explica que, no contexto educacional, um texto autêntico é aquele que "foi escrito para uso no mundo 'real', e não especialmente para estudantes de inglês". Assim, leia as assertivas, a seguir, sobre a utilização desse recurso em sala de aula:
(I) deve-se considerar o nível do aprendiz e apresentá-lo a textos autênticos progressivamente.
(II) esse tipo de material deve ser introduzido nas séries finais, quando o aluno estiver preparado.
(III) os “textos autênticos” são os que circulam nos meios sociais e podem ser escritos ou falados.
(IV) textos longos são os mais indicados para esse tipo de trabalho, por sua variedade de itens.
(V) os textos devem ser buscados em diferentes fontes e abordar assuntos atuais e interessantes.
As assertivas que se referem a cuidados a serem tomados durante o trabalho com textos autênticos nas aulas de língua inglesa são:

Read the text below and get acquainted with one of the most important Brazilian capitals.
With its 19th century architecture, Belém retains shades of the “Tropical Paris”
The capital of Pará received 640,000 visitors in 2015. Walking through the city, they would no doubt have stumbled across traces of its former rubber glory, like the Theatro da Paz, built in 1878.
It was built by rubber barons and used to receive operas and foreign theatre companies. It is still in use today, hosting Brazilian companies and an opera festival. The building is open to tourists, and entry costs R$6 (US $1.46).
By the waterfront in the old city, the Ver-o-Peso open-air market is unmissable. Visitors can see women making tacacá (manioc soup) and buy chestnuts, açaí, the medicinal herb jambu and many other local products.
If hunger strikes, stalls sell fish with açaí - a local delicacy. The fruit is served unsweetened, without the sugar that tends to be added in São Paulo and Rio.
A little further on is Mangal das Garças, a park opened in 2005. It is 40,000m2 and entry is free. It has flamingos and wild lizards, as well as a butterfly house - a reminder, that in spite of its rubber belle époque, Belém remains at the heart of the Amazon.

Leia, a seguir, um trecho de reportagem sobre os homens Neandertais.
Neanderthals' lack of artistic skills may have led to their extinction because they were unable to develop the hand-eye coordination needed to hunt
Neanderthal art is not known for being impressive. Unlike Homo sapiens, our ancient cousins were unable to draw recognisable images of animals or people. Now, new research claims this lack of artistic ability was closely related to Neanderthals' inferior hunting skills. Both drawing and hunting require hand-eye coordination, which Neanderthals did not have – a fact that scientists say may have led to their extinction.
Neanderthals existed mainly in Eurasia between 120,000 and 35,000 years ago and used thrusting spears at close range to kill horses, reindeer, bison, and other large game that had not developed an innate wariness of humans. Meanwhile, early humans (Homo Sapiens) hunted dangerous animals using throwing spears in sub-Saharan Africa for more than 500,000 years.
Throwing spears, rather than thrusting them, made hunters better at visualisation. As a result, Homo Sapiens developed a bigger parietal cortex – the area in the brain that integrates visual input and motor skills. This meant that they could also make art about hunting, which acted as a type of practice for our ancestors, because drawing developed their hand-eye coordination.

Glossário:
to hunt = caçar
thrusting spears = lanças de mão
throwing spears = lanças de arremessar
throw = arremessar
at close range = a curta distância
game = a atividade de caça esportiva ou para consumo; ou os animais caçados
Leias as assertivas a seguir com base no texto sobre os Neandertais:
(I) Apesar de terem cérebros grandes, os Neandertais não desenhavam de modo claro.
(II) A coordenação entre mãos e olhos é necessária somente para desenhar, mas não para caçar.
(III) As diferenças artísticas entre os Neandertais e o Homo sapiens podem estar relacionadas aos seus estilos de caça.
(IV) Os primeiros Homo sapiens também não conseguiam desenhar os animais que caçavam.
(V) Essas diferenças podem explicar por que os humanos se tornaram mais coordenados que os Neandertais.

Learn English with free podcasts
Living in the digital age has quite a few benefits – especially when it comes to (cat videos and) language learning. You can improve your English at the push of a button – for example with podcasts. To get you started, here are the best podcasts for elementary learners. Happy listening!
Elementary-level podcasts
1) Learn English
Let’s start with ‘Learn English’ – a fantastic podcast from the British Council. The episodes are discussion-based and cover everyday vocabulary and situations. This website also offers a lot of free support material. You can download each episode’s transcript and also take short quizzes to test your recently acquired knowledge. It’s the best way to retain new words and make quick progress.
2) Voice of America
Do you want to improve your English while listening to current and interesting topics? Then, ‘Voice of America: Learning English’ is for you! It has different kinds of audio programs covering different interests and narrated at a slower speed. The “American Mosaic” program discusses pop culture in the United States – such as the new movies. Meanwhile, U.S. history fans will enjoy “The Making of a Nation”. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg: other podcasts focus on science and even grammar – so in addition to learning English, you’ll get super smart, too!

Um professor de inglês fez a seguinte pergunta a um aluno cego durante uma aula sobre “materiais”:
“This ball feels incredibly light and uniform. It’s not rigid at all and it bounces really high! What’s it made of?”
Preste atenção aos adjetivos que qualificam a bola. A resposta mais adequada para a pergunta “De que a bola é feita” é:
“It’s made of metal.”
“It’s made of glass.”
“It’s made of wood.”
“It’s made of paper.”
“It’s made of plastic.”

Learn English with free podcasts
Living in the digital age has quite a few benefits – especially when it comes to (cat videos and) language learning. You can improve your English at the push of a button – for example with podcasts. To get you started, here are the best podcasts for elementary learners. Happy listening!
Elementary-level podcasts
1) Learn English
Let’s start with ‘Learn English’ – a fantastic podcast from the British Council. The episodes are discussion-based and cover everyday vocabulary and situations. This website also offers a lot of free support material. You can download each episode’s transcript and also take short quizzes to test your recently acquired knowledge. It’s the best way to retain new words and make quick progress.
2) Voice of America
Do you want to improve your English while listening to current and interesting topics? Then, ‘Voice of America: Learning English’ is for you! It has different kinds of audio programs covering different interests and narrated at a slower speed. The “American Mosaic” program discusses pop culture in the United States – such as the new movies. Meanwhile, U.S. history fans will enjoy “The Making of a Nation”. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg: other podcasts focus on science and even grammar – so in addition to learning English, you’ll get super smart, too!

Um professor de inglês fez a seguinte pergunta a um aluno cego durante uma aula sobre “materiais”:
“This ball feels incredibly light and uniform. It’s not rigid at all and it bounces really high! What’s it made of?”
Preste atenção aos adjetivos que qualificam a bola. A resposta mais adequada para a pergunta “De que a bola é feita” é:
“It’s made of metal.”
“It’s made of glass.”
“It’s made of wood.”
“It’s made of paper.”
“It’s made of plastic.”

Mary visits once a year in Florida her son.

Paul"
