Read the text below and answer the next question: Gaia Pope: Family appeals for art in memory of teenager The family of teenager Gaia Pope are appealing for people to create and donate artwork to honour her memory a year after her death. The 19-year-old was reported missing from Swanage on 7 November. Her body was found 11 days later near the Dorset coast path. Her family said as the anniversary of her disappearance approached they were "asking people to make something to show she is not forgotten". The artwork will be displayed online. Miss Pope, from Langton Matravers, near Swanage, made an allegation she was raped two years before her death. Her family claimed an alleged failed police investigation "severely affected Gaia's mental and physical state". Art, particularly pyrography (woodburning), became a form of therapy for the teenager, her family said. Her mother Natasha Pope said: "I don't speak about my daughter in the past tense - I utter her name as I always have because I know she is still with me, every moment, in all we're doing. "Gaia's art and poetry, inspired by the beauty of nature and the strength of femininity, is her way of connecting with her true self. In spite of all she's been through she is not defined by that. "Our Gaia would want to provide a forum for others to find their voice and create." Miss Pope's cousin Marienna Pope-Weidemann added: "Some things are so big, run so deep, they can only be expressed through art. Our love and our grief for Gaia feels that way. "The love we've felt from the community felt that way too. We want to honour that, make it visible, maybe do something to show other survivors, families who's lost someone too soon, that they are not alone." The family said the project was inspired by the #JusticeForLB social media campaign and want people to share their art on Twitter via #JusticeForGaia. The #JusticeForLB campaign was set up by Dr Sara Ryan - the mother of 18-year-old Connor Sparrowhawk, who had epilepsy and drowned in a bath after having a seizure in Oxford. Dorset Police is being investigated over the way it handled the rape allegation and its response to Miss Pope's disappearance. Source: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-dorset45571415

Text 7A1-II Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same, And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back. I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Robert Frost. The Road Not Taken . 1916 (adapted).

Leia o texto para responder à questão. What does a Theatrical Company Manager do? It’s difficult to pin down exactly what a theatrical company manager does simply because they do so much: negotiate contracts, organize payroll, pay for purchases of outside materials, organize rehearsals, arrange transportation and lodging for cast and crew, assist the director, and – of course – handle emergencies inside and outside of the theater. Crucially, company managers also act as the link between the general manager – their boss – and the rest of the company. A generalized problem solver with a focus on human resources and logistics, the company manager’s work is never over, and rarely the same from day to day. Expected Professional Education The company manager is one of the highest-ranking professionals in any theater company or production, responsible for overseeing almost all logistical and administrative processes. While a company manager could possibly do well with no more than a bachelor’s degree, most theater companies prefer a master’s degree in theater management, business management, or arts administration. Many company managers get started as stage managers, working directly with the director, actors, and designers in rehearsal and calling the show. Over time, they may move gradually towards the broader logistical duties of a company manager, perhaps progressing first to become the head of operations or audience services. As this is a high-ranking position, most company managers advance by seeking longterm positions with prestigious and well-funded companies. They can also progress to become general managers, or even choose to become production managers. (https://www.berklee.edu. Adaptado)
