       É possível aprender inglês utilizando o Duolingo?  Ele realmente funciona ou é perca de tempo? 

       Estas são as perguntas mais comuns quando se trata de aprender idiomas com o Duolingo. Bom,  para esse questionamento  a  resposta  é muito fácil.

       Sim é possível aprender um idioma estrangeiro com ele, tudo vai depender da maneira que você estuda, por sua estratégia de estudo referente ao conteúdo que nele é apresentado.

        O conteúdo gramatical apresentado neste aplicativo é bom e  relevante. Assim como as frases utilizadas em seus questionários, e toda a dinâmica que apresentada na execução de exercícios também.

        O Duolingo é eficaz, porém, assim como qualquer escola ou método de aprender idiomas tem que ser complementado com outros recursos. Mas estudando com esse aplicativo podemos nos comunicar sem muitos problemas no idioma escolhido.

        Para a fluência em qualquer idioma estrangeiro será necessário a exposição ao idioma, videos e áudios para familiarização com a fala natural de seus nativos. Nisso o You Tube e os Podcast são grandes aliados dando lhe a oportunidade dessa experiencia sem sair de casa. Também será necessário encontrar  parceiros de conversação para exercitar os músculos responsáveis pela fala.


        Já para proficiência no idioma terá que buscar escolas de alto padrão onde poderá aprender e ser testado em um alto nível. Porém isto é mais para quem quer seguir carreira de lecionador de línguas.

HOW FAR WOULD YOU GO TO IMPROVE YOUR APPEARANCE?

    Most of us have a part of our bodies or faces that we’re not entirely happy about. It can even make you feel self-conscious. Despite friends and family saying it’s fine, we might still secretly wish we could do something to change it. But just how far would you go? Would you cover it up to avoid that feeling of being stared at? Would you conceal it with makeup? Or would you consider cosmetic surgery?
   Makeup is a great way to enhance your features and bring a healthy looking glow to your face. It can also help conceal those little blemishes or scars we’d rather hide away. Best of all, it can be used to highlight areas of the cheeks to give a more defined or slender look. Shadows, highlights, and concealers are essentials for any good makeup bag. With the right products and the right makeup skills, you could create that flawless look we all strive for.
    A good skincare routine goes a long way toward improving the texture and appearance of our skin. It applies to our entire bodies. All of us suffer the odd dry patch that needs just that little bit of extra attention. There are lots of moisturizers on the market. Pick one that is right for your skin type and age. It will help keep the skin soft and supple. It can also help to avoid sores from dryness and blemishes.
    Some people adopt exercise and diet plans to help improve their appearance. They may want to be slimmer and more toned. Diet and exercise can certainly go a long way to achieving this. Of course, it’s hard, though. Restricting your calorie intake and giving up some of your favorite treats can be quite unpleasant. And finding the motivation to get up and do the exercises you need to do is even tougher. It takes tenacity and determination. Prioritizing this part of your life is never easy when you have a career and kids to juggle.
  As we get older, those tell-tale signs of aging start to appear on our faces. Many can be hidden for a time with skilled makeup application. Others may not bother you. But there are some that can cause you to look tired and sad, like puffy eyes. There is surgery for bags under the eyes available that will remove these signs of aging. Most importantly, it helps you look more energetic, happy and vibrant.
  Some people don’t really mind their appearance at all. They are happy, confident people with other priorities in life. But there are many who feel quite affected by their appearance. They may feel it is preventing them getting the jobs they want, or entering into a meaningful personal relationship. A minority of people may even become anxious or depressed about their appearance. Life’s too short to be sad, so it is worth exploring the options available to you.
   How we look is always going to be of some importance to us. Thankfully, many of us are quite content. We all look beautiful, but if you fancy tweaking some of the details, it could be in your interests to seek some advice. Be happy with you.

Are you a good or bad drive?

    My test score was fourteen. I stayed between 13- 19 points. The recommendation for me is: "Stay focused. Don´t allow bad drivers to distract you. Pay attention to your own driving instead."
    In my opinion i am a good driver, maybe i am not so calm.I always pay attention to the road, i respect others drivers and the traffic laws
