If you’re a chocoholic you may have noticed that your habit has lately become more expensive. The price of cocoa began creeping up in the second half of 2022. Since then it has doubled, reaching an all-time high in January 2024. That steep rise spells trouble for the chocolate business and sweet-toothed consumers alike. Graph 1 Graph 2 Climate patterns are partly to blame for rising costs. Cocoa is mostly produced by small farmers in West Africa. Ghana and Ivory Coast grow about 60% of the world’s crop. Last season, in 2023, the El Niño weather pattern led to unseasonably high temperatures and rainfall that ravaged crops. Total rainfall in Ivory Coast’s cocoa-growing areas in 2023 was the highest in 20 years, according to Gro Intelligence, a data firm. This year El Niño has brought severe drought to the cocoa farms, reducing production further. ING, a bank, estimates that this year the gap between global production and consumption will be at its widest since at least 2014. Extreme weather patterns have hit other commodities, too. Droughts in Thailand and India are affecting rice plantations. Torrential rain in Brazil, the world’s biggest sugar exporter, has affected its exports. Besides, other price pressures are specific to the cocoa industry. Swollen-shoot virus and black-pod disease — killers of cocoa trees — spread across Ghana and Ivory Coast during heavy rainfall last year. Tropical Research Services, a research company, estimates that by the end of 2023 the swollen-shoot virus had infected around 20% of Ivory Coast’s cocoa trees. (www.economist.com, 28.02.2024. Adaptado.) The aim of the text is to

  1. A)explain the reasons that have led to the escalation of cocoa prices.
  2. B)convince consumers to reduce chocolate intake to force price drop.
  3. C)establish climate change as the only cause of cocoa production crisis.
  4. D)present opportunities for countries to expand their cocoa exports.
  5. E)show that chocolate producers intend to increase their profits even more in 2025.

It is well established that some people are genetically predisposed to a shorter lifespan. It is also well known that lifestyle factors, specifically smoking, alcohol consumption, diet and physical activity, can have an impact on longevity. However, until now there has been no investigation to understand the extent to which a healthy lifestyle may counterbalance genetics. Findings from several long-term studies suggest a healthy lifestyle could offset effects of life-shortening genes by 62% and add as much as five years to your life. The results were published in the journal BMJ Evidence-Based Medicine. “This study elucidates the pivotal role of a healthy lifestyle in mitigating the impact of genetic factors on lifespan reduction,” the researchers concluded. (Andrew Gregory. www.theguardian.com, 30.04.2024. Adaptado.) The text is mainly about
  1. A)the role of a healthy lifestyle to compensate unfavourable genetics.
  2. B)the necessary lifestyle changes people have to be aware of to be productive.
  3. C)the effect of smoking and alcohol abuse on quality of life.
  4. D)ways to improve genetics and live longer by adopting a diet and some exercise.
  5. E)manners to overcome the fear of an early death that most people have.

The first Game Developers Conference, in 1988, attracted 25 participants and took place in a programmer’s sitting room in California. This 2023 summit, which began on March 20 in a giant exhibition centre in San Francisco, demonstrates how the industry has grown. Some 3.2 billion people now play, thanks largely to the spread of the smartphone. Women are now almost as likely as men to call themselves gamers. Gaming is catching on among all age groups. In Britain, for instance, half of those aged 55-64 play video games, though for less time than the young. Worldwide there are now more console owners aged 35-44 than 16-24. The bigger the audience, the bigger the market. Consumers will spend 185 billion dollars on games in 2023, more than half on mobile games. That is about five times the value of the cinema box office, and two-thirds more than the video-streaming business. As gaming continues to grow, it is beginning to rival television as the world’s favourite entertainment medium. (https://view.e.economist.com, 20.03.2023. Adaptado.) The text and the graph are mainly about the

The benefits of computer games in education are clear. They engage students, improve problem-solving skills, enhance creativity and imagination, allow for personalized learning, remote learning, learning on demand, and contacting peers around the world. With the increasing use of technology in schools, it is essential that teachers explore the potential benefits of computer games and incorporate them into their teaching methods. Doing so can create a more engaging and effective learning environment for their students. (Ruby Butz. https://gamingrespawn.com, 23.03.2023. Adaptado.) According to the text, one of the advantages of computer games in education is:
  1. A)behaviour management tools for teachers.

In March 2022, parts of Antarctica have been 40 ºC warmer than their March average The Concordia research station is one of the most inhospitable places on Earth. At 3,000 m above sea level on the Antarctic Plateau, the temperature rarely rises above -25 ºC even in the summer. In midwinter it can fall to around -80 ºC. The air is painfully dry, and fingers, toes and noses can freeze in minutes. The dozen or so crew, mainly French and Italian, who live and work in the station would normally venture out only for essential work. But Concordia has recently experienced a heatwave. On March 18th the temperature reached a high of -11.8 ºC — more than 40 ºC warmer than the average for this time of year. Similarly freakish weather was recorded across eastern Antarctica. Temperatures at the Russian-run Vostok research station rose to -17.7 ºC, more than 15 ºC above the previous record for March, set in 1967. Across the continent temperatures were 4.5 ºC higher than usual (though in recent days they have returned to a normal range). Meteorologists have attributed the latest heatwave to an atmospheric “river” of warm, damp air blowing towards Antarctica from the Southern Ocean near Australia. It is difficult to know whether climate change is to blame for one-off weather events. But over the past 65 years or so there has been an increase in the number of “high temperature” days at Antarctic stations. Most regions of Antarctica have been spared global warming. In the late 20th century, a large hole opened up in the ozone layer above the South Pole. This has a regional cooling effect, which has offset much of the heating caused by rising concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Temperatures on the continent rarely climb above freezing, which preserves its vast ice sheets (although rising sea temperatures do threaten some areas). Even in the recent surge, temperatures stayed well below zero. (www.economist.com, 24.03.2022. Adaptado.) The information presented by the graph, the map and the text show that in March 2022
