mesmo número de palavras e têm também semelhante
grau de dificuldade. Leia o primeiro parágrafo usando seu
tempo e ritmo normais de leitura, e anote o tempo usado
na leitura. Em seguida, faça a leitura do segundo

leitura do primeiro texto, e responda: qual é a ideia geral

 The most successful dieters are those who start slimming
at the age of 28. According to a new study, by the time
women reach their thirties they are often too busy to
watch their weight and by their forties they have lost
interest in getting into shape. By contrast women in their
late twenties trim down faster because they have more
time and willpower.
 British men are the most indecisive festive shoppers in
Europe. They take an average of 15 days to choose a
present for their loved ones, according to a survey of
more than 1,000 men across France, Italy, Spain and
Britain. This is 3½ days more than men in the other
countries take to decide what to buy.

 Religion, politics, technology, economics and culture have interwoven to explain how a
language spoken by a mere 400 or so in the fifth century came to be spoken by a
respectable 4 million in the sixteenth – and in the twentieth century by an impressive
400 million as a mother tongue, and an extraordinary further 1,400 million as a second
or foreign language. This book illustrates where the language is now, where it has
been, and – perhaps most important of all – where it is heading, for the new varieties of
the language appearing in world literature and on the internet show that this incredible
story is by no means over. Some of these “new Englishes” are currently in their infancy,
but history suggests that any book of the language a century hence would present a
very different portrait of world English from the one we see today.
