Alternativa: A Comentário: cognatas são palavras que têm a mesma origem, possuem grafias iguais ou muito próximas as da nossa língua. Podem pertencer, inclusive, várias (ou algumas) línguas, mas sempre com o mesmo significado. Nas alternativas “b”, “c”, “d” e “e”, as palavras são cognatas, pois hospital = hospital; similar = similar; familiar = familiar e radiotherapy = radioterapia. Como a questão pede um exemplo de não cognato, a alternativa “a” é a única que traz um exemplo correto, pois “software” é uma palavra de origem inglesa e que nós “pegamos emprestada” para uso do nosso vocabulário diário.

I would like to apologize for my absence very much. I am in a difficult situation. A member of the family has not been well, for he has been very sick and I have to take care of him, because nobody could do that but me.
There is nothing of much serious, thanks to God, but I need to stay at home for more two days until my sister returns from her travel. As soon as she comes, she will take care of him and so I will be free.
Please, understand my situation and I hope these two days will go fast, _________________________________________.

Read the passage below and complete the gap with the right pronoun:
Much as the first “Scream” movie gave horror cinema a jolt with self-consciously knowing characters who knew the bloody ins and outs of the genre — and were sadistically subjected to those clichés firsthand — “Friends With Benefits” starts from the premise that its characters, and you, are sick of the romantic comedy clichés they may secretly, or not so secretly, adore. In other words, the director Will Gluck, who wrote the script with Keith Merryman and David A. Newman, doesn’t just want to have (1) ________ romantic comedy cake and eat it too, he also wants to throw it in your face and make you laugh as you lick the icing off your lips. The results are about as naughty as that sounds (not very), but it also makes for a fairly giggling good time. http://movies.nytimes.com/2011/07/22/movies/justin-timberlake-in-friends-with-benefits-review.html

Read the short passage below and the statements related to it. Decide which of them are correct:
Shakespeare’s Theater Career:
At some point in the late 1580s, Shakespeare made the four-day ride to London, and by 1592 had established himself as a writer.
In 1594 came the event that changed the course of literary history – Shakespeare joined Richard Burbage’s acting company and became its chief playwright for the next two decades. Here, Shakespeare was able to hone his craft, writing for a regular group of performers.
Shakespeare also worked as an actor in the theater company, although the lead roles were always reserved for Burbage himself.
The company became very successful and often performed in front of the Queen of England, Elizabeth I. In 1603, James I ascended the throne and granted his royal patronage to Shakespeare’s company, which became known as The King’s Men.
I- Shakespeare never traveled to London.
II- Shakespeare never acted in a play.
III- Burbage always had the lead roles at the theaters.
IV- The theater company was a failure.
V- The Queen of England, Elizabeth I never watched a play performed by the actors of the theater company where Shakespeare worked.

Friends with Benefits, a breezy, speedy and (no kidding) funny comedy with a nicely matched Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis that is about love and sex in the age of social networking, (1) __________ some of its juice and tang partly by trash-talking its own genre. The setup is familiar, as are the essential elements: a single man and a single woman, two battered hearts yet a pair of resilient, eager, pretty bodies.

Like his father, Shakespeare had excellent business sense. He had bought the largest house in Stratford-upon-Avon by 1597, he owned shares in the Globe Theater, and profited from some real estate deals near Stratford-upon-Avon in 1605.
Before long, Shakespeare officially became a gentleman, partly due to his own wealth and partly due to inheriting a coat of arms from his father who died in 1601.
