}}

Usando os elementos para evitar a repetição, a frase acima é escrita da seguinte maneira:

These chocolates are delicious. Would you like one?

=== 1. ONE (singular)===

**Qual óculos você quer?
*This one (-> glass).
**Quero este (-> óculos).

**Estes trens vão para Londres. Aqueles (trens) vão para Liverpool.
}}

===3. A ... ONE===

O artigo indefinido a é usado quando a palavra substitutiva (one ou ones) for acompanhada de adjetivo. Caso a palavra substitutiva não esteja acompanhada de adjetivo, o artigo indefinido a não deve ser usado.

{{Example|
*She wants a dog. She would like a small one with brown hair.
*She wants a dog. She would like one with brown hair. (NOT ... a one with a brown hair.)
**Ela quer um cachorro. Gostaria de um (cachorro) pequeno com pêlo marrom.
**Ela quer um cachorro. Gostaria de um (cachorro) com pêlo marrom.
}}

===4. WHICH (ONE), THIS (ONE), ...===

Após which, this, that, another, either, neither e superlativos a palavra substitutiva (one ou ones) pode ser omitida. Mas lembre-se, ela deve estar posicionada imediatamente após estas expressões para que possa ocorrer a omissão.

{{Example|
*Which (one) would you prefer?

Lesson:Protected Intersections for Bicyclists/ExerciseD1

2014-09-22T18:28:53Z

Ricardo: /* Listening Exercise */

==Listening Exercise==

<html5media>http://thegrove.com.br/metodo/images/0/09/Protected_Intersections_For_Bicyclists_1.mp3</html5media>

<quiz display=simple>
{Watch the video and complete the text according to what you can understand.
|type="{}"}
Urban planners and designers have { finally_8 } figured it out: If your city is designed so that you can bike instead of drive, it will be a happier, healthier place to live. We know that { protected_9 } bike lanes are the key to getting the average person to consider traveling by bike. { Sharing_7 } busy traffic lanes with cars is absolutely unacceptable. And separation by a line of paint is often not enough. Protected bike lanes - also called cycle { tracks_6 } - use curbs, planters or parking to buffer bicyclists from moving cars. But there's still a problem. The protected bike lanes lose their benefits when they reach intersections. The buffer falls away and you're faced with an { ambiguous_9 } collection of green paint, dashed lines and bicycle markings.
One popular configuration is called the { mixing_6 } zone. Where cars and bikes share the lane. It doesn't matter how safe and protected your bike lane is, if intersections are { risky_5 } stressful experiences. We need to make intersections just as safe and secure as the lanes that lead into them. What the protected bike lane needs, is the protected intersection. Modeled after Dutch intersection design, the Protected Intersection brings the physical protection along with you as you ride { through_7 } the crossing. A collection of design { elements_8 } makes left turn simple and secure. Right turn is protected and fast and provide straight through movement that minimize or eliminate conflicts from turning cars.
With this design, { riders_6 } will never feel stranded, exposed or ( unsure-6 } of where to go and how to get there. There are four main elements to protected Intersection designs: A corner { refuge_6 } island; a forward stop bar for bicyclists; a { setback_7 } bike and pedestrian crossing and bicycle-friendly signal phasing. The corner refuge island is the key element that makes these intersections function. This island brings the protective { barrier_7 } from the bike lane far into the intersection. Think of it like a { curb_4 } extension for bicyclists. The island physically separates bicyclists as they make right turns. And provides a secure refuge for those waiting at a red signal protected from moving cars. Paired with the corner refuge island is a forward stop bar for bicyclists. While people driving must stop back behind the { crosswalk_9 }, people on bikes may { yield_5 } to pedestrians and stop at a waiting area farther ahead in the intersection. Bicyclist turning left also use the space to wait when making a left turn. The advantage of this design is threefold: the { forward_7 } stop location makes bicyclists incredibly visible to drivers waiting at a red light; the physical distance - ahead of cars - gives bicyclists an effective head start when the light turns green. And the distance to the road the bicyclists need to cross is greatly reduced. In Protected Intersections, the bike lane { bends_5 } away from the intersection, creating a setback bicycle and pedestrian crossing. In contrast to conventional bicycle crossings that run next to moving cars, the { setback_7 } crossings provide the space and time for everyone to react to potential conflicts. The critical dimension is one car length of space between the { traffic_7 } lane and the bicycle crossing: Around six meters. This space is often already present in the parking and buffer space of the protected bike lane. With this design, drivers turn 90 { degrees_7 } to face the bike lane before they even cross it, making people on bikes highly visible and out of the drivers' { blind_5 } spot. To allow for adequate reaction time for all users, use a small effective corner radius to encourage a slow driver turning speed of five to ten miles per hour.
The last element of a Protected Intersection is the use of bicycle specific signals and bicycle friendly signal phasing. Just as important as the physical design of the intersection is the use of signals to control how and when different people can { proceed_7 }. At its most secure, a protected signal phase for bicyclists will use red signals to prevent any conflicting car turning movements. There's no risk of right or left hooks from cars when they are { prohibited_10} from turning where bicyclists are traveling through. A variation of the protected signal phase is to give all car movements a red signal and all bicyclists movements a green. This { simultaneous_12 } green phase gives full reign of the intersection to bicyclists, allowing through movements in all directions at once.Left turns in one } stage_5} and even full u-turns through the intersection. Even at high volumes, bicyclists are good at { negotiating_11 } shared space and will have no trouble staying out of each other's way.
When it's not possible to prohibit conflicting movement { entirely_8 }, an alternate approach is to provide a leading bicycle interval. This is a head start green light for bikes of anywhere from two to five seconds. It provides them a little extra time to get { rolling_7 }, enter the intersection and maybe even clear it completely before people driving start to move.
Taken together, these design elements create a safe clear experience for all people using the street. Signals control movements, { refuge_6 } islands create protected spaces and proper { positioning_11} of crossings and conflict points provides everyone with the time and space necessary to react to potential risks. While the Protected Intersection design is unconventional and non-standard in the US, so were protected bike lanes only a few years ago. Using these design { concepts_8 }, planners, designers and engineers can bring the protection of their bike lane into the space where people need it the most. And finally, provide a safe place for people of all ages and { abilities_9 } to ride.

: You are what you have.
: Victims of burglaries often report that they feel they might be personally polluted. It suggests that our possesions are a bit of extensions of ourselves. Think of the kind of the things you buy second-hand - you'd have no problem in buying a second-hand car, but second-hand underwear (no matter how clean) you might not even want to touch. Even after we die, possessions may still remain a part of us. This is demonstrated by burrial sites, where domestic utensils, jewellery and weapons are found. We may even become immortalised in our possessions as they have handed down from one generation to another.

# To what extent are possessions more important than people?
# Would you buy something just because it belonged to a famous person?
# How attached are you to your things? What kind of things would you never lend to anyone?
# What second-hand things would you consider buying?
# Do you have any collections (stamp albums, butterflies, etc)?

Lesson:How Oil Prices Affect the Economy/ExerciseL1

2014-08-12T17:57:56Z

Ricardo: /* Listening Exercise */

==Listening Exercise==

<html5media>http://thegrove.com.br/metodo/images/c/c7/How_Oil_Prices_Affect_the_Economy_Calling_for_a_Third_Industrial_Revolution.mp3</html5media>

<quiz display=simple>
{Watch the video and complete the text according to what you can understand.
|type="{}"}

You know, it seems like every time the { economy _7 } starts to get stronger, oil prices go up. Way up. And then the economy { struggles _9 } again. So what's the deal with freaking oil? Well you see, oil used to be a cheap and abundant { resource _8 }. So much so that crude oil created a byproduct called gasoline, which at one point was just considered { waste _5 }.
So, we designed engines to run off that { gas _3 }. And this was the beginning of what we call the Second Industrial { Revolution _10 }, and it's a time of great economic growth. It made it so that most of our transportation and { distribution _12 } of goods is dependent on oil; 35% of United States energy comes from oil. We also grow our food and petrochemicals made from oil. { Construction _12 } materials are made from oil. In fact, Americans consume petroleum products at a rate of 3.5 gallons of oil per day. And that's not just in fuel. Here's a list of other things that we use that are { made _4 }from oil.
Now, here's the problem: while there used to be { plenty _6 } of oil that was easy to get, today we've used a lot of it. But don't tell those tree-hugging, Earth-is-your-mother kind of { people _6 } freak out on you, because there's still a ton of oil left in the ground. In fact, arguably we haven't even hit peak oil yet. Meaning that there's still more oil left in the earth than what we've taken out.
But here's the thing: Human { population _10 } is growing rapidly and certain countries like { China _5 } and India, who are largely { responsible _11 } for putting so many new people on this planet, are { becoming _8 } industrialized and using more and more oil. So, while there's lots of oil left to be sucked out of the earth, there's more and more people { consuming _9 } that oil. So, in the early 1900's when we first discovered oil, the amount of oil available per person was growing steadily until 1979. You see BP discovered in a study that it was that year that the amount of oil available per person on the planet peaked. And ever since then has been going down just as fast as it went up. In fact, for the past few decades we consume 3.5 barrels of oil for every new barrel we find. So, because of population growth, oil is going to become less { abundant _8 } and harder to get to… unless we could find a backup { planet _6 }.
So, here's the real problem: when the economy is humming, we're { producing _9 } more, buying more, transporting more. So in turn, we use more oil, which makes the price go up, and since our { economy _7 } is based off of oil, the price of everything goes up. Which means the amount of things we can { afford _6 } to buy goes down, and that makes the economy slow down { again _5 }.
In fact, every time we try to work ourselves out of a recession, we bring the price of oil back up with us, because it's the lifeblood of our economy. So, remember in July of 2008 when oil hit U$150 per barrel? Well that seems to be about as high as our economy can handle before { everything _10 } collapses. If we really want to see our economy { prosper _7 } again like before, we can't rely anymore on the Second Industrial Revolution. What we need is to build a new economy that's not dependent on oil. What we need is a New { Industrial _10 } Revolution.

Religion 
A religion is an organized collection of beliefs, cultural systems, and world views that relate humanity to an order of existence. Many religions have narratives, symbols, and sacred histories that are intended to explain the meaning of life and/or to explain the origin of life or the Universe. From their beliefs about the cosmos and human nature, people derive morality, ethics, religious laws or a preferred lifestyle. According to some estimates, there are roughly 4,200 religions in the world. 
The word religion is sometimes used interchangeably with faith, belief system or sometimes set of duties; A global 2012 poll reports that 59% of the world's population is religious, and 36% are not religious, including 13% who are atheists, with a 9% decrease in religious belief from 2005. On average, women are more religious than men. Some people follow multiple religions or multiple religious principles at the same time.

About Games 
A game is structured playing, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool. Games are distinct from work, which is usually carried out for remuneration, and from art, which is more often an expression of aesthetic or ideological elements. However, the distinction is not clear-cut, and many games are also considered to be work (such as professional players of spectator sports/games) or art (such as jigsaw puzzles or games involving an artistic layout such as Mahjong, solitaire, or some video games). 
Key components of games are goals, rules, challenge, and interaction. Games generally involve mental or physical stimulation, and often both. Many games help develop practical skills, serve as a form of exercise, or otherwise perform an educational, simulational, or psychological role.

====5. Read the text and answer the questions below:====

An amusement park or theme park is a group of entertainment attractions, rides, and other events in a location for the enjoyment of large numbers of people. An amusement park is more elaborate than a simple city park or playground, usually providing attractions meant to cater specifically to certain age groups, as well as some that are aimed towards all ages. Theme parks, a specific type of amusement park, are usually much more intricately themed to a certain subject or group of subjects than normal amusement parks. 
Amusement parks evolved from European fairs and pleasure gardens, which were created for people's recreation. World's fairs and expositions were another influence on the development of the amusement park industry. Amusement parks have a fixed location, as opposed to travelling funfairs and carnivals. 
In common language, the terms theme park and amusement park are often synonymous. However, a theme park can be regarded as a distinct style of amusement park. A theme park has landscaping, buildings, and attractions that are based on one or more specific themes or stories. Despite many older parks adding themed rides and areas, qualifying the park as a theme park, the first park built with the original intention of promoting a specific theme, Santa Claus Land, in Santa Claus, Indiana, did not open until 1946. Disneyland, located in Anaheim, California, built around the concept of encapsulating multiple theme parks into a single amusement park is often mistakenly cited as the first themed amusement park, but is instead the park that made the idea popular.

====5. Read the text and answer the questions below:====

An amusement park or theme park is a group of entertainment attractions, rides, and other events in a location for the enjoyment of large numbers of people. An amusement park is more elaborate than a simple city park or playground, usually providing attractions meant to cater specifically to certain age groups, as well as some that are aimed towards all ages. Theme parks, a specific type of amusement park, are usually much more intricately themed to a certain subject or group of subjects than normal amusement parks. 
Amusement parks evolved from European fairs and pleasure gardens, which were created for people's recreation. World's fairs and expositions were another influence on the development of the amusement park industry. Amusement parks have a fixed location, as opposed to travelling funfairs and carnivals. 
In common language, the terms theme park and amusement park are often synonymous. However, a theme park can be regarded as a distinct style of amusement park. A theme park has landscaping, buildings, and attractions that are based on one or more specific themes or stories. Despite many older parks adding themed rides and areas, qualifying the park as a theme park, the first park built with the original intention of promoting a specific theme, Santa Claus Land, in Santa Claus, Indiana, did not open until 1946. Disneyland, located in Anaheim, California, built around the concept of encapsulating multiple theme parks into a single amusement park is often mistakenly cited as the first themed amusement park, but is instead the park that made the idea popular.

Children at Play 
Children at play is a common sign seen in American cities urging motorists to slow down. The signs are seen around areas where children frequent, such as playgrounds and schools. They are almost always characterized by the words "Children At Play". They sometimes have a speed limit and/or a picture of a child running posted on them. 
Sometimes neighborhood residents post impromptu signs after a child is struck by a vehicle. "Children at Play" signs are inappropriate for public streets since they convey the suggestion that playing on the street is acceptable behavior, which it is not. Additionally, the installation of this sign may lead parents and children to believe they have an added degree of protection which these sign do not provide.
