Aesop was a slave of rare intelligence who served in the house of a well-known military chief of ancient Greece. One day, when his boss was talking with another fellow about the evils and virtues of the world, Aesop was called to give his opinion on the matter, to which he replied with certainty:
“I am absolutely certain that the greatest virtue on Earth is for sale on the market.
- Like? – asked the master, surprised – Are you sure what you're talking about? How can you claim such a thing?
"Not only do I affirm, but, if my master permits, I will go there and bring the greatest virtue on earth."
With the master's permission, Aesop went out, and in a few minutes he returned carrying a small package. Upon opening the package, the old chief found several pieces of tongue and, enraged, gave the slave a chance to explain himself.
"My lord, I have not deceived you," replied Aesop. "Language is indeed the greatest of virtues." With it we can console, teach, clarify, relieve and lead. Through language the teachings of philosophers are spread, religious concepts are spread, the works of poets become known to all. Can you deny these truths, my master?
— Good, my dear — replied the master — Since you are resourceful, how about bringing me now the worst addiction in the world?
'It's perfectly possible, sir. And with my master's permission again, I will go to the market again and from there I will bring the worst vice on earth.
Permission granted, Aesop went out again, and in a few minutes he returned with another package, similar to the first. When he opened it, the master again found pieces of tongue. Disappointed, he interrogated the slave and got a surprising answer from him:
— Why do you admire my choice? In the same way that language, well used, becomes a sublime virtue, when relegated to lower planes, it becomes the worst of vices. Through it, intrigues and verbal violence are woven. Through it, the holiest truths, which it itself taught, can be corrupted and presented as vulgar and meaningless anecdotes. Through language, fruitless discussions, prolonged misunderstandings and popular confusions that lead to social imbalance are established. Can you refute what I say? asked Aesop.
Impressed by the servant's unusual intelligence, the master fell silent, moved, and instantly, recognizing the nonsense of having such a wise man as a slave, gave him his freedom.
Aesop accepted release and later became a well-known storyteller of antiquity, whose stories still spread throughout the world.

ABC Paulista is a set of four cities in the metropolitan region of São Paulo, which includes Santo André, São Bernardo do Campo, São Caetano do Sul and Diadema. The virtually uninterrupted interconnection of this region, where around 1.5 million people live, began at the end of the 1950s, when the first large car makers arrived in the country, opening thousands of opportunities for job. People from all over the country, particularly from the Northeast, flocked to the region.
A highly specialized workforce was formed there, with a standard of living that, if it could not be considered First World, was far superior to that of the rest of the Brazilian population. There was also a high degree of political awareness in the region, where the military regime was openly challenged in the great strikes of the 1970s and 1980s.

There is no doubt that languages increase and change with time and the needs of usages and customs. To want ours to stop in the 500th century is an error equal to saying that its transplantation to America did not bring new riches to it. In this respect the influence of the people is decisive. There are, therefore, certain ways of saying, new locutions, which forcefully enter the domain of style and gain the right of city.

(A) the changes in Portuguese from Europe to Brazil avoided introducing new riches to the language.
(B) changes in language are conditioned to the needs of usages and customs and to time.
(C) 16th century Portuguese is the same as it is today, it is not necessary to stop the language in time.
(D) the speakers of the countryside use current expressions of the language even without suffering European influence.
Let's imagine that the pharmaceutical industry developed a pill that could prevent heart disease, obesity, diabetes and reduce the risk of cancer, osteoporosis, hypertension and depression.

(Gro Harlem Brundtland, director general of the WHO – World Health Organization) Folha de São Paulo, 6 Apr. 2002.

The children knew that the presence of that stray dog in her apartment would be the target of their mother's strictest censure. She didn't have any room: an apartment so small that it barely welcomed Álvaro, Alberto and Anita, in addition to her parents, she still had to give shelter to a little dog! The boys hid the animal in a closet near the hallway and sat in the living room waiting for the events. Late in the afternoon the mother came home from work. He wasted no time in discovering the intruder and expelling him, under the worried eyes of his children.

Jessica is just an 11 year old girl (…). But she has the courage of a lioness and the calm of a guardian angel. On Sunday night, the house where she lives turned into an inferno that burned with flames because one of her brothers caused the accident by striking a match. Larissa, 7, Letícia, 3, and the boy, 8, who unintentionally started the fire, were saved because Jessica (despite being 11 years old) forgot to be afraid. Even with the house burning, her throat choking with smoke, and the front door locked from the outside (the mother had left), the girl did not despair. She opened a bedroom window and through it she put all the brothers out, one by one. While she did this, she prayed. No one has even suffered a scratch. Only then did Jessica think of herself. And she was very scared. She jumped out the window and took off running.

(B) Letícia (of 3).
(C) boy (out of 8).

It's never been easier to dry a pimple
We think that taking care of the skin is work. Nothing! It's really annoying to face that pimple that insists on appearing on your face at the most inappropriate times: the first day of school or meeting the boy you're in for. Well-groomed skin gives an incredible lift to the look, right? So, get to work with Avon's Clearskin line, which has eight products that make our lives easier. In addition to fighting acne (they are made with glycolic acid, a powerful sugarcane derivative), they leave the skin super-hydrated.

– (…) I apologize to my professional partner and to the Vasco fan, because he didn't want to leave the team (…).
But the defender followed coach Paulo César Gusmão's line of blaming the referee (...):
