TEXTO I - "Eu, que desde os dez anos de idade faço versos; eu, que tantas vezes sentira a poesia passar em mim como uma corrente elétrica e afluir aos meus olhos sob a forma de misteriosas lágrimas de alegria: não soube no momento forjar já não digo uma definição racional dessas que, segundo regra a lógica, devem convir a todo o definido e só ao definido, mas uma definição puramente empírica, artística, literária”.

Manuel Bandeira

TEXTO II - Memória

Amar o perdido

deixa confundido

este coração.

Nada pode o olvido

contra o sem sentido

apelo do Não.

As coisas tangíveis

tornam-se insensíveis

à palma da mão

Mas as coisas findas

muito mais que lindas,

essas ficarão.

Carlos Drummond de Andrade

TEXTO III - Ouvir estrelas

"Ora (direis) ouvir estrelas! Certo

Perdeste o senso!" E eu vos direi, no entanto,

Que, para ouvi-las, muita vez desperto

E abro as janelas, pálido de espanto...

E conversamos toda a noite, enquanto

A via láctea, como um pálio aberto,

Cintila. E, ao vir do sol, saudoso e em pranto,

Inda as procuro pelo céu deserto.

Direis agora: "Tresloucado amigo!

Que conversas com elas? Que sentido

Tem o que dizem, quando estão contigo?"

E eu vos direi: "Amai para entendê-las!

Pois só quem ama pode ter ouvido

Capaz de ouvir e de entender estrelas."

LARGEST AIRCRAFT IN THE WORLD

We have lift-off. The world's largest aircraft has taken to the skies for the first time.The Airlander 10 spent nearly two hours in the air, having taken off from Cardington Airfield in Bedfordshire. During its flight, it reached 3,000 feet (914 meters) and performed a series of gentle turns all over a safe area.

The aircraft is massive – as long as a football pitch and as tall as six double decker buses and capable of flying for up to five days. It was first developed for the US government as a long-rangesurveillance aircraft but was scrapped following cutbacks.

Each one cost 25 million pounds and can carry heavier loads than jumbo jets while also producing less noise and emitting less pollution. The makers, Hybrid Air Vehicles, believe it"s the future of aircraft, and that one day we'll be using them to get places.

But we're a while away yet. The Airlander will need to clock up 200 hours" flying time before beingdeemed airworthy by aviation bodies. If it passes though, we can hope we'll all get some extra leg room.
