Read the following text about Pierre-Auguste Renoir, the Impressionist painter, in order to answer questions 2 and 3

 

Luncheon of the Boating Party

Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) was a French painter who was an important member of the Impressionist movement. Renoir’s style encompassed open-air landscapes, family scenes, and monumental portraits. He loved to paint scenes from everyday life, and he is known especially for that.

Born in Limoges, France, Renoir showed an early talent for painting and began his formal art education at the age of 13. He spent much of his early career as a painter of porcelain, but later turned his focus to oil painting.

Renoir was known for his loose brushwork and use of light and color to convey mood and emotion. His paintings often featured scenes from everyday life, such as picnics, parties, and dance halls. One of his most famous works is “Luncheon of the Boating Party,” which depicts a group of his friends enjoying a meal at a restaurant on the Seine River.

Despite suffering from rheumatoid arthritis in his later years, Renoir continued to paint and produce beautiful works of art until his death in 1919.

QUESTÃO 05

Read the following text.

Faster, driverless travel

The first autonomous vehicles have already been developed, and futurist and inventor Mark Pesce says that in 20 to 30 years, they will be commonplace.

He says they will not only change how we travel, but how we shop – with orders being placed online and goods arriving within hours via a driverless vehicle.

“It’s going to make its way to you, not to your address, but to wherever you are with your smartphone,” Mr Pesce says.

Futurist Chris Riddell says people won’t own cars in the future – they’ll share them, meaning buildings are less likely to need cark parks.

“The idea of having a car that you own and it sits in a car park – people will think that was crazy,” Mr. Riddell says. “We’ve rapidly moved into a world where we don’t want to own stuff, we want to have things on demand.”

Mr. Pesce says we are already on the cusp of a “drone revolution”, and that there are likely to be drones that can transport people 300 kilometers in an hour.
