There are many superlatives to describe the September 27-28, 2015 full moon. It’s the biggest, closest and brightest supermoon of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, this full moon enjoys the title of Harvest Moon. Last but hardly least, this supermoon will feature a total eclipse of the moon, visible on the night of September 27-28 from the Americas, the Atlantic, Greenland, Europe, Africa and the Middle East.
This post focuses on closest supermoon aspect of this fascinating, upcoming full moon.
The moon will reach the crest of its full phase on September 28, 2015 at 2:51 UTC. At North American’ time zones, the moon will turn full on September 27 at 11:51 p.m. ADT, 10:51 p.m. EDT, 9:51 p.m. CDT, 8:51 p.m. MDT, 7:51 p.m. PDT.
It’ll reach perigee – the moon’s closest point to Earth for this month – within an hour of that time. Thus it’s the closest full moon of the year, and appears largest (to extremely careful observers) and brightest in our sky. This happens to be the moon’s closest encounter with Earth for all of 2015, period. The moon won’t be so close to Earth again until the full moon of November 14, 2016.
We astronomers call this sort of close full moon a perigee full moon. The word perigee describes the moon’s closest point to Earth for any given month. Four years ago, when the closest and largest full moon fell on March 19, 2011, many used the term supermoon, which we’d never heard before. In the following years, we heard this term again to describe the year’s closest full moon on May 6, 2012, and again on June 23, 2013 and yet again on August 10, 2014.
Now the term supermoon is being used a lot. Last month’s full moon – on August 29, 2015 – was also a supermoon. But the September full moon is even more super! In other words, the time of full moon falls even closer to the time of the moon’s closest point to Earth.

QUESTÃO 41: Resposta A
No cartum, as
personagens falam sobre o antigo hábito das crianças de montarem stands
(barracas) para vender limonada, deixando claro que não mais veem tais barracas
no bairro. A pergunta seguinte é “o que se- PROVA GERAL — P-6 TIPO M-8 —
09/2015 9 rá que as substituiu?”. Em seguida, no terceiro quadrinho, vê-se uma
barraca oferecendo ajuda psiquiátrica, e no quarto, a resposta de Charlie
Brown, “now you know – agora você sabe”, levando-se à inferência de que as
barracas de limonada (bebidas/beverages) foram substituídas por aquelas.
QUESTÃO 42: Resposta D
Os textos tratam
de criações tecnológicas e negócios de jovens empreendedores (afirmativa I). As
informações contidas nas afirmações II e V podem ser confirmadas nos textos
sobre Stacey Ferreira e Nick D’aloisio, respectivamente.
QUESTÃO 43: Resposta E
A resposta depende
da compreensão geral de todos os textos utilizados, porém uma atenção à fonte
de tais textos (www.incomediary.com/young-entrepreneurs-follow) pode direcionar
à resposta mais provável, bem como a introdução de cada texto, que informa o
nome, a função e a idade de cada empreendedor. Algumas afirmativas não trazem a
informação como contida nos textos (Ex: B – nem todas as invenções são apps; C
– analisar algumas das melhores invenções relacionadas à tecnologia não é
verdadeira, pois o texto fala de criações contemporâneas apenas).
QUESTÃO 44: Resposta D
O texto informativo, uma notícia veiculada pela internet,
tem como objetivo principal informar sobre as enchentes no estado do Acre no
início do mês de março, 2015 e suas consequências, principalmente para a
população local, o que pode ser constatado no primeiro parágrafo (The number of
people affected by the record-high flood in the Acre River in the northern
Brazilian state of Acre reached 87,000, local authorities said Wednesday.
Portanto o título mais adequado está na alternativa D: Enchente afeta a
população no norte do Brasil.
QUESTÃO 45: Resposta C
O texto informa
sobre as enchentes no estado do Acre no início do mês de março, 2015, suas
consequências e as iniciativas governamentais de auxílio à população afetada, o
que inclui acomodação dos desabrigados em abrigos (shelters) e a garantia dada
pelo Ministro da Integração Nacional, Gilberto Occhi, de que as famílias que
vivem em áreas de risco serão incluídas no programa federal de construção de
casas populares e que receberão novas casas em outras áreas (7o parágrafo:
National Integration Minister Gilberto Occhi, [...] assured that families
living in risk areas will be included in the federal government's popular
housing program to receive new homes in different areas.).
QUESTÃO 46: Resposta E
A escolha da
alternativa correta requer compreensão geral do texto, pois apenas uma das
afirmações está correta e a verificação se dá com a leitura e compreensão do
texto todo. A única afirmação correta é a (V), confirmada pelo 2o parágrafo, no
qual se afirma que as barreiras maciças de concreto ao longo da costa causarão
danos à ecologia marinha e ao cenário, prejudicarão a atividade pesqueira, e na
verdade pouco farão para proteger os residentes (das áreas costeiras) que devem
na verdade ser removidos para locais mais altos (Opponents of the 820 billion yen ($6.8
billion) plan argue that the massive concrete barriers will damage marine
ecology and scenery, hinder vital fisheries and actually do little to protect
residents who are mostly supposed to relocate to higher ground.).
QUESTÃO 47: Resposta
A
A resposta se encontra no 6o parágrafo do
texto, no trecho: The safest thing is for people to live on higher ground and
for people’s homes and their workplaces to be in separate locations. If we do
that, we don’t need to have a ‘Great Wall,’ he (Igushi) said.
QUESTÃO 48: Resposta C
A alternativa C apresenta as formas e os tempos verbais
adequados ao contexto e às regras de uso para completar o texto corretamente.
QUESTÃO 49: Resposta A
A alternativa A apresenta a correlação correta entre as
orações (principal e subordinada condicional) segundo as regras de uso dos
tempos verbais nesse tipo de período e com adequação ao contexto.
QUESTÃO 50: Resposta E
No cartum, vemos a personagem verificando vários dados
relativos à sua pressão arterial, temperatura e respiração – sinais vitais, em
seu relógio. A ironia é que o relógio não é capaz de alertá-lo sobre coisas
mais corriqueiras, como o aniversário de alguém próximo.

Britain’s Roman Villas
Villas were homes. In their kitchens bread was baked. Along their corridors echoed family conversations. They were well built and handsomely decorated. The first villa was built around A.D. 80-90. It was a small farm. Later on the house was extended, kitchens and baths were added.
It is known that many villas were destroyed by fire. Their ruins remain hidden for years and it is often by accident that the site is discovered.
