CHARACTERISTICS
There are 12 zodiac signs, and each sign has its own strengths and
weaknesses, its own specific traits, desires and attitude towards life and
people. By analyzing the projection of the position of planets, and the Sun and
the Moon on the Ecliptic at the moment of birth. Astrology can give us a
glimpse of a person's basic characteristics, preferences, imperfections and
fears.
Each of the 12 horoscope signs belongs to one of the four elements – Air,
Fire, Water and Earth. These four elements help describe the unique
personality types associated with astrological signs. The four zodiac elements
exhibit profound influence on basic character traits, emotions, behavior and
thinking.

O Present Simple expressa a ideia de que a ação é repetida ou frequente. A ação pode
ser um hábito, um hobby, um evento diário ou agendado, algo que ocorre com
frequência.
Examples:
____________________________________________________________
O Present Simple pode também indicar que o falante acredita que um fato era verdade
anteriormente, é verdade no presente, e será verdade no futuro. Não importa se o
falante está correto sobre o fato. Usa-se o Present Simple também para fazer
generalizações sobre pessoas ou coisas.

LESSON 4 – READING
Jane's brother Henry helped her negotiate with a publisher and her first novel,
'Sense and Sensibility', appeared in 1811. Her next novel 'Pride and Prejudice',
which she described as her "own darling child" received highly favorable
reviews. 'Mansfield Park' was published in 1814, then 'Emma' in 1816. 'Emma'
was dedicated to the prince regent, an admirer of her work. All of Jane Austen's
novels were published anonymously.
In 1816, Jane began to suffer from ill-health, probably due to Addison's disease.
She travelled to Winchester to receive treatment, and died there on 18 July
1817. Two more novels, 'Persuasion' and 'Northanger Abbey' were published
posthumously and a final novel was left incomplete.
