TCNICAS DE LEITURA As tcnicas de leitura, como o prprio nome diz, vo nos ajudar a ler um texto. Existem tcnicas variadas, mas veremos as mais utilizadas. Ao ler um texto em Ingls, lembre-se de usar as tcnicas aprendidas, elas vo ajud-lo. O uso da gramtica vai ajudar tambm. As principais tcnicas so: a identificao de cognatos, de palavras repetidas e de pistas tipogrficas. Ao lermos um texto vamos,ainda, apurar a idia geral do texto (general comprehension) e utilizar duas outras tcnicas bastante teis: skimming e scanning. a) Cognatos Os cognatos so palavras muito parecidas com as palavras do Portugus. So as chamadas palavras transparentes. Existem tambm os falsos cognatos, que so palavras que achamos que tal coisa, mas no ; os falsos cognatos so em menor nmero, estes ns veremos adiante. Como cognatos podemos citar: school (escola), telephone (telefone), car (carro), question (questo, pergunta), activity (atividade), training (treinamento)... Voc mesmo poder criar sua prpria lista de cognatos! b) Palavras repetidas As palavras repetidas em um texto possuem um valor muito importante. Um autor no repete as palavras em vo. Se elas so repetidas, porque so importantes dentro de texto. Muitas vezes para no repetir o mesmo termo, o autor utiliza sinnimos das mesmas palavras para no tornar o texto cansativo. c) Pistas tipogrficas As pistas tipogrficas so elementos visuais que nos auxiliam na compreenso do texto. Ateno com datas, nmeros, tabelas, grficas, figuras... So informaes tambm contidas no texto. Os recursos de escrita tambm so pistas tipogrficas. Por exemplo:

... (trs pontos) indicam a continuao de uma idia que no est ali exposta; negrito d destaque a algum termo ou palavra; itlico tambm destaca um termo, menos importante que o negrito; (aspas) salientam a importncia de alguma palavra; ( ) (parnteses) introduzem uma idia complementar ao texto.

d) General Comprehension A idia geral de um texto obtida com o emprego das tcnicas anteriores. Selecionandose criteriosamente algumas palavras, termos e expresses no texto, poderemos chegar idia geral do texto. Por exemplo, vamos ler o trecho abaixo e tentar obter a general comprehension deste pargrafo: Distance education takes place when a teacher and students are separated by physical distance, and technology (i.e., voice, video and data), often in concert with face-to-face communication, is used to bridge the instructional gap. A partir das palavras cognatas do texto (em negrito) podemos ter um a idia geral do que se trata; vamos enumerar as palavras conhecidas (pelo menos as que so semelhantes ao Portugus):

distance education = educao a distancia students = estudantes, alunos separeted = separado physical distance = distncia fsica technology = tecnologia voice, video, data = voz, vdeo e dados (ateno: data no data) face-to-face communication = comunicao face-a-face used = usado (a) instructional = instrucional

Ento voc poderia dizer que o texto trata sobre educao a distncia; que esta ocorre quando os alunos esto separados fisicamente do professor; a tecnologia (voz, vdeo, dados) podem ser usados de forma instrucional. Voc poderia ter esta concluso sobre o texto mesmo sem ter muito conhecimento de Ingls. claro que medida que voc for aprendendo, a sua percepo sobre o texto tambm aumentar. H muitas informaes que no so to bvias assim. e) Skimming skim em ingls deslizar superfcie, desnatar (da skimmed milk = leite desnatado), passar os olhos por. A tcnica de skimming nos leva a ler um texto superfic ialmente. Utilizar esta tcnica significa que precisamos ler cada sentena, mas sim passarmos os olhos por sobre o texto, lendo algumas frases aqui e ali, procurando reconhecer certas palavras e expresses que sirvam como dicas na obteno de informaes sobre o texto. s vezes no necessrio ler o texto em detalhes. Para usar esta tcnica, precisamos nos valer dos nossos conhecimentos de Ingls tambm. Observe este trecho: Using this integrated approach, the educators task is to carefully select amo ng the technological options. The goal is to build a mix of instructional media, meeting the needs of the learner in a manner that is instructionally effective and economically prudent. Selecionando algumas expresses teremos:

integrated integrada

approach

abordagem

(approach

abordagem,

enfoque)

educators task = tarefa (task = tarefa) do educador s significa posse = do tecnological options = opes tecnolgicas (tecnological adjetivo) goal = objetivo a mix instrucional media = uma mistura de mdia instrucional.

Com a tcnica do skimming podemos dizer que este trecho afirma que a tarefa do educador selecionar as opes tecnolgicas; o objetivo ter uma mistura de mdias instrucionais de uma maneira instrucionalmente efetiva e economicamente prudente. f) Scanning Scan em Ingls quer dizer examinar, sondar, explorar. O que faz um scanner? Uma varredura, no ?! Logo, com a tcnica de scanning voc ir fazer uma varredura do texto, procurando detalhes e idias objetivas. Aqui importante que voc utilize os

conhecimentos de Ingls; por isso, ns vamos ver detalhadamente alguns itens gramaticais no ser Estudo da Lngua Inglesa. Olhe este trecho: Teaching and learning at a distance is demanding. However, learning will be more meaningful and deeper for distant students, if students and their instructor share responsibility for developing learning goals: actively interacting with class members; promoting reflection on experience; relating new information to examples that make sense to learners. This is the challenge and the opportunity provided by distance education. Poderamos perguntar qual o referente do pronome their em negrito no trecho? Utilizando a tcnica de skimming, seria necessrio retornar ao texto e entender a sentena na qual o pronome est sendo empregado. Their um pronome possessivo ( e como tal, sempre vem acompanhado de um substantivo) da terceira pessoa do plural ( o seu referente um substantivo no plural). A traduo de their instructor seria seu instrutor . Seu de quem? Lendo um pouco para trs, vemos que h students; logo conclumos que their refere -se a students, ou seja, instrutor dos alunos. X-X-X-X-XX-X-X REDAO COMERCIAL EM INGLS As cartas comerciais em ingls seguem determinados modelos ou referem-se a situaes recorrentes. Conforme utilizamos as estruturas e as expresses idiomticas com frequncia, adquirimos gradativamente um vocabulrio amplo, aumentando nossas habilidades no uso do idioma para as questes de negcios. A carta comercial em ingls segue esta estrutura: 1. Cabealho (letterhead) Normalmente o cabealho j est impresso no papel de carta ou, trabalhando-se com computador, encontra-se arquivado no programa de texto (formulrio da carta). O cabealho em ingls deve conter nome, endereo, nmero de telefone e fax. Caso a empresa tenha e-mail e website estes devem ser mencionados. 2. Referncia (reference line) A referncia consiste normalmente das iniciais da pessoa que ditou a carta e daquela que a escreveu. s vezes a linha de referncia contm a abreviatura do departamento, que especialmente em rgos pblicos ou grandes empresas com vrios departamentos - deve ser mencionada na resposta. 3. Data (date) H diversas formas modernas de escrever a data, por exemplo: 10 September 2010 September 10 2010 September 10, 2010 September 10th 2010 September 10th, 2010 Mesmo considerando a forma diferente adotada pelos norte-americanos, deve-se evitar escrever apenas nmeros, como por exemplo: 2010-9-10 Esta forma de se referir ao dia 10 de setembro de 2010 bem comum nos Estados Unidos, mas pode confundir. Por isso, o nome do ms deve ser escrito e, especialmente em nomes de meses extensos, citados de forma abreviada, por exemplo: 10 Sept 2010

4. Endereo do destinatrio (inside address) Exemplos: Mr P.R. Johnson Mrs A J Howard Ms Rita Fullhan Miss Jaqueline Howard Messrs Hooton & Brown A forma de tratamento em correspondncia para pessoas ou empresas , via de regra, como mostrada no exemplo. "Messrs" usa-se em organizaes apenas diante dos nomes de pessoas, todavia, no uma forma utilizada quando a organizao tem outro nome que no o nome de pessoas, como The Whitehall Exhibition Centre The Brighton Golf Club Se a carta endereada a uma sociedade de capital, que em ingls geralmente termina em "Ltd." ou "Plc", nos Estados Unidos frequentemente em "Inc", na frica do Sul em "Pty", etc., escreve-se apenas o nome da empresa, por exemplo: The Boston Rubber Company Inc. Dexter & Partners Ltd MacGraw & Hudson Plc 5. Destinatrio individual - aos cuidados de (attention line - for the attention of) Se, por motivo de competncia, a carta deve ser dirigida a determinada pessoa, aconselhvel que se use para isso uma linha separada. Naturalmente, a pessoa em questo pode ser mencionada j no endereo do destinatrio. Todavia, a desvantagem que uma carta destinada a determinada pessoa s pode ser aberta por ela. Caso se trate de correspondncia comercial, melhor, portanto, envi-la "aos cuidados de ...". Assim, poder ser aberta se a pessoa competente estiver ausente, de modo que o colega que estiver presente tome as devidas providncias. 6. Saudao (salutation) O tratamento a uma pessoa ou empresa depende muitas vezes do tratamento utilizado no endereamento ou na linha de "aos cuidados de...". O tratamento para "Mr A J Howard" seria, por exemplo: Dear Sir ou Dear Mr Howard ou, como bastante comum no ingls, por meio do nome: Dear Adam No caso das senhoras vale o mesmo. "Ms Jane Fielding" poderia receber os seguintes tratamentos: Dear Madam Dear Ms Fielding Dear Jane A abreviao "Ms" dos Estados Unidos, onde as mulheres preferiram no usar nem "Mrs" nem "Miss" diante dos seus nomes, mas indicar simplesmente por "Ms" de que se trata de pessoas do sexo feminino. "Mrs" e "Miss" evidentemente tambm so usadas. As abreviaes "Mr.", "Mrs.", "Ms." frequentemente levam um ponto na correspondncia norte-americana, mas muito raramente em cartas comerciais britnicas. Se a correspondncia dirigida a uma empresa em que no se conhea ningum pelo nome, utiliza-se: "Dear Sirs", "Dear Sir ou Madam" ou tambm "Dear Madam, dear Sir". Se dirigida a

uma organizao constituda apenas de mulheres, usa-se tambm nos Estados Unidos "Ladies". Porm, nem no ingls britnico nem no ingls norte-americano existe um tratamento que englobe a todos, correspondente em portugus a "Prezados Senhores e Senhoras". Nos exemplos das cartas, para simplificar, foi utilizado o tratamento no singular "Dear Sir ou Madam". Caso se utilize em seguida a pontuao, no ingls britnico coloca-se uma vrgula, no norte-americano, dois pontos. Com os recursos da informtica, tanto no endereamento quanto no tratamento no se utiliza muito a pontuao. No corpo da carta, obviamente, continua tendo a maior importncia. Em cartas norte-americanas encontra-se frequentemente a pontuao tanto no tratamento quanto no final dele (uma vrgula). 7. Assunto (subject line) Nas diversas organizaes da Unio Europia, no existe unanimidade quanto necessidade de se referir ao assunto. Enquanto no Brasil a tendncia ainda de considerar a referncia ao assunto como parte integrante da carta, ela j no obrigatria na Gr-Bretanha. Embora no ingls a referncia deva estar aps a saudao, e no antes, como em portugus, tambm aqui existem divergncias. 8. Corpo da carta (body of the letter) Mesmo em uma carta comercial breve, existe unanimidade quanto necessidade de haver trs partes: introduo, a razo da carta e uma frase final. 9. Cumprimento final (complimentary close) Aqui h diferenas no ingls britnico e no norte-americano. Enquanto o britnico muito reservado, tenha tratado a pessoa pelo nome ou no, o americano mais aberto. Se os britnicos se dirigem a uma pessoa pelo nome, por exemplo: Dear Roger Dr Jones Dear Mr Parker, costumam usar no cumprimento final "Yours sincerely". Mas, se escrevem Dear Sir Dear Madam Dear Sirs, a frase final ser "Yours faithfully". Se se conhece muito bem uma pessoa, podem ser acrescidas algumas palavras cordiais, como With best wishes Kind regards Nos Estados Unidos encontra-se frequentemente Sincerely yours, ou Yours (very) truly, no importando como a pessoa foi tratada no incio. 10. Nome e assinatura (name and signature) Na Gr-Bretanha e nos Estados Unidos a carta geralmente assinada pela pessoa que a ditou ou a escreveu. Como assinaturas geralmente no ilegveis, torna-se cada vez mais comum escrever o nome da pessoa embaixo. A fim de informar o destinatrio sobre o cargo da pessoa com a qual se corresponde, muitas vezes se encontra tal indicao tambm sob o nome, por exemplo:

P R Land Mary Peterson Purchase Manager Chief Accountant 11. Anexos (enclosures) Se for anexado um documento carta, isso deve ser mencionado no seu final, o que normalmente se faz pela abreviao "Encl(s)" ou "Enc(s)". 12. Cpias (cc - carbon copy) Muitas vezes o remetente deseja que determinada pessoa ou organizao/departamento (interno ou externo) receba uma cpia da carta, para sua informao. A fim de que o destinatrio tambm saiba disso, coloca-se uma observao no rodap da carta. Muitas vezes se informam ao mesmo tempo vrias pessoas e organizaes/departamentos. 13. Post scriptum (postscript - P.S.) Assim como no Brasil, serve para colocar ao final da carta algo que se tenha esquecido. Mas hoje o P.S. se tornou bastante raro, pois em cartas escritas no computador pode-se facilmente inserir algo no texto. O post scriptum fica aps a assinatura ou aps a indicao de anexo.

EXEMPLOS DE CARTAS EMPRESARIAIS EM INGLS 26 Windmill Road Bristol BS2 6DP 2 May 2007 Ms Kate Roberts Human Resources Manager Business Solutions International Ambassador House Marcham Way LONDON WC2 9TP Dear Ms Roberts Vacancy for Business Analyst I am writing in reply to your advert for the above post, which was advertised in The Guardian on Tuesday 30 April 2007, and I enclose my CV in application. I am currently in the final year of a BA (Hons) course in Business Economics at City University, Bristol, and expect to graduate in June 2007. I have always wanted to pursue a career as an economist within an international environment and have been able to tailor my studies to that end. I have obtained A grades in the Economic Data Analysis, International Economics, and Economics of Business Strategy modules, and am currently completing a dissertation on the growth of e-commerce in the European Union. I am fluent in spoken and written Spanish, having built on my A-level proficiency in that subject when working in Spain and Mexico. In addition to the qualifications and abilities outlined above, I have kept my IT skills fully up to date (including MS Excel and Access) and am competent in a wide range of business data analysis operations. The post also requires someone with good communications skills who is able to negotiate with corporate clients: I enjoy making new contacts and establishing relationships with a wide range of people, and have successfully liaised with Spanish companies when arranging student activities while I was a Teaching Assistant in Seville. I feel that the position offered would be ideal in giving me the opportunity to use my education and skills to provide a high level of service for the international client profile you describe. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely Sara Green

Swindon SN2 4MR 12 May 2008 The Recruitment Officer Partington Borough Council Partington Manchester M31 4FY Dear Sir or Madam Vacancy for Social Worker (Childrens Services), Partington Borough Council I am writing in reply to your advert for the above post, which appeared in The Guardian on 9 May 2008, and I attach my CV for your attention. As you will see from my CV, I am currently studying for a BA (Hons) in Social Work at Thames University, Swindon, and will be graduating in June 2008. Successful completion of this degree will give me fully qualified social worker status with the GSCC. As an experienced primary school teacher I have a real enthusiasm and flair for working with children and wish to transfer the interpersonal, communication, and motivational skills that I gained in my teaching posts to a new career in social work. In addition, I have a long-standing interest in developing childrens potential with regard to sporting activities, and am currently the manager of an under 11s football team. I feel that as a social worker, I can make a real difference to the lives of the children and families of your area; I would also welcome the chance to work for a local authority such as your own, where I would be part of a small and committed team. One of my work placements during my degree course was with a local authority of a similar size, so I am familiar with working in this type of environment. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future. Yours faithfully Charles Morton
