INTERPRETAÇÃO DE TEXTO
When researching a report for radio and television about the migrant phenomenon, it is possible to realize
that there was nothing new about it. For many years, waves of displaced and frightened people have broken
over Europe again and again and the images have been strikingly similar each time.
But how can the world deal conclusively with the problem? The former UN under-secretary-general for
humanitarian affairs, Sir John Holmes,blames globalgovernance.―Otherpowersarerising,‖hesays-
Syriaisanexample of this. ―And the United States doesn‘t have the influence it once did, so the problem‘s
not being fixed, no-one‘s waving the big stick and we‘re having to pick up the pieces.‖ We have endured
an entire century of exile and homelessness and the cause is always the same - conflict and bad
government.Unlessthesearedealtwith,theflowofmigrantswillneverbe stopped.

Since the beginning of the project, the disjointed attempts at commercializing the Baniwa
products have been replaced by a more
structuredwaytofindmarketopportunitiesfortheemergingArteBaniwa. One of the first
potential outlets identified was an annual flower fair called ExpoFlora that is held every year
in Holambra, in the state of São Paulo (SP). The idea was to sell the Baniwa baskets as
flower-holders, a unique decorative piece for homes and offices.
Alargeorderofbasketswasplacedbydifferentparticipantsofthefair,and 200 Baniwa artisans
were mobilized to produce hundreds of baskets in a short period of time. However, problems
with the shipping of the products from the Northwest Brazilian Amazon to the State of São
Paulo (SP) and the lack of any institutional sponsorship at the fair resulted in poor sales and
revenues, disappointing the artisans after the hard work. As a result, many of the participant
artisans abandoned the project, suspicious of its real potential and credibility (Martins
&Unterstell, 2009; Unterstell& Martins, 2004; Wright,2009).

TheevolutionoftheprojectwasfollowedbycontactswithamajorBrazilian
retailerpossessingthelargestnetworkofsupermarketsinthecountry.The partnership with this
chain, the Pão de Açúcar Group, was responsible not only for giving great visibility to the
Baniwa products, but also for introducing the element of competitive pricing to the project,
as the company had more strict commercial policies than the other buyers and
partnersoftheproject.ThispartnershipwiththePãodeAçúcarGroupwas only possible because
there were long discussions between the company and the project (Unterstell&
Martins,2004).
For the ISA as a NGO that defends the indigenous rights, it was important to demonstrate
the feasibility of this type of project by showing that these initiatives can be sustainable in
social, economic and ecological ways. The Arte Baniwais recognized as a sustainable
development project, thus materializing its belief in the interdependence between
biodiversity and socio-diversity (Unterstell& Martins, 2004).

Underwriting, the task of deciding what risks to insure, allows insurers to discriminate
between good and bad risks. Differences in prices for insurance must reflect expected
differences in losses and expenses. When the risk of future losses increases or when rates
are inadequate, insurers become more selective about the degree of risk they will assume in
an effort to preserve their profit margin. However, redlining, defined as
refusal to issue or renew, or cancel an insurance policy based on the geographic location of
the structure or individual to be insured, is illegal in every state.
Because losses tend to be higher in urban areas, rates for auto and home insurance are often
higher than average in inner cities. This has raised questions about the availability and
affordability of insurance in urban communities. Responding to these concerns, the
insurance industry is redoubling its efforts to enhance the insurability of inner city
properties andtopushforchangesinautoinsurancethatwouldenabledriverstohave more

Those who commit insurance fraud are not easily identifiable. The
NationalInsuranceCrimeBureau(NICB)saysthatinsurancecheatsrange from organized
criminals, to unscrupulous doctors, lawyers, vehicle body shop owners, to ordinary people
who buy insurance. Although the motivation to commit insurance fraud is always
monetary, the amount also varies greatly, from a few extra dollars on an insurance claim,
to thousands or more stolen by organized fraudrings.
The Insurance Information Institute estimates that property/casualty insurance fraud cost
insurers $24 billion in 1999. According to Conning and Company, fraud cost the entire
insurance industry $96.2 billion in 1999.

Fraud rings have followed the path of technology to the Internet in search of fraud
opportunities. Along with the ease of electronic filing of medical claims is the greater
potential for committing fraud. Conning‘s 2000 study found that 84 percent of respondents

fraud.

Mississippi was the most backward state in the Union, its people the poorest and most ignorant.
That is, of course, a generalization.
The State was not without affluent and polished gentry. The capital city of Jackson harbored an
unusual concentration of wealthy aristocrats and business magnates; in Greenville one could meet
more urbane and cultivated people that in the average city of its size elsewhere in the country. The
median family income of whites was $ 4,209 a year, that of Negroes $ 1,444. Mississippi's 916,000
Negroes were the crudest and most retarded in the United States – a result of white oppression, but
a circumstance which nourished the myth of racial inferiority so deeply embedded in the
Mississippi mind. Here too the generalization could be misleading: there were a number of Negroes
of talent, education, and refinement in the state; after Faukner the most distinguished contemporary
Mississippian was probably Leontyne Price, the Negro prima donna. But thousands of the state's
RealizandoSonhos Pág. 53
Inglês II
most energetic and ambitious Negroes had been in effect driven away year after year. Negroes, now
42 per cent of the population, had been a majority until the 1930's. Only the bravest Negroes in the
most tolerant communities were able to, or dared to, exercise the franchise. More than 70 per cent
of the whites – but less than 7 per cent of the Negroes – were registered.
(From MUSE, Benjamin.―The American Negro Revolution‖. The Citadel Press, New York, 1970).

TEXT:
Travels with my aunt.
Henry Pulling, a retired bank manager, meets his septuagenarian Aunt Augusta for the first time in
over fifty years at what he supposes to be his mother's funeral.
Soon after, she persuades Henry to abandon Southwood, his dahlias and the Major next door to travel
her way, Brighton, Paris, Istanbul, Paraguay … through Aunt Augusta, a veteran of Europe's hotel
bedrooms, Henry joins a shiftless, twilight society; mixing with hippies, war criminals, CIA men;
smoking pot, breaking all the currency regulations … coming alive after a dull suburban lifetime.
In Graham Greene's 'Travel With My Aunt', the author not only gives us intoxicating entertainment
but also confronts us with some of man's deepest and most perplexing dilemmas.
(Adapted from GREENE, Graham, ―Travels With My Aunt‖, back cover, PENGUIN BOOKS, 1969).
