There are some basic components that account for the narrative's internal structure. Mark the alternative that
presents a correct statement about a narrative's features:
 The Past Perfect is typically used in narratives to signal which action came about �rst.
A narrative¿s temporal juncture is always strictly organized by the chronological sequencing of events
that make up the plot.
Present tenses �gure among the most recurrent verb forms within narratives.
When a logical cause-and-effect relationship unites the chain of events, the narrative tends to sound
more far-fetched.
Actions narrated in the past tend to make experiences sound fresh and vivid, charging them with more
emotional tension.
Respondido em 27/08/2023 17:20:01
Explicação:
The past tenses are commonly used in narratives. To convey that a past action happened before another one, the past
perfect is chosen. Therefore, the past perfect plays an important function in the sequencing of past actions, since it
points out those events that happened at an earlier point in time. Cause-and-effect relationships make the narrative
sound more plausible and not the other way around. What¿s more, to make experiences sound fresh and vivid, the
historical present is usually preferred. The correct option is then: "The Past Perfect is typically used in narratives to
signal which action came about �rst."

This wiki entry describes a typical dish named "ceviche". Read it and choose the correct alternative:
"Because the dish is eaten raw, and not cooked with heat, it must be prepared fresh and consumed immediately
to minimize the risk of food poisoning. Ceviche is often eaten as an appetizer; if eaten as a main dish, it is usually
accompanied by side dishes that complement its �avors, such as sweet potato, lettuce, maize, avocado, or
cooking banana." Retrieved from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceviche
According to such description, about a quarter of the ingredients are raw.
 The expression "accompanied by" introduces a componential description in the de�nition.
Such an entry provides a chronological description of a ceviche recipe.
This description provides an account of consuming rates of the dish.

It consists of a process description on how to decrease food poisoning rates caused by the consumption
of the dish.
Respondido em 27/08/2023 17:19:54
Explicação:
Indeed, when listing the complements of ceviche introduced by the expression "accompanied by", the author
introduces the elements and traits that usually compose the dish. Therefore, the expression introduces a
componential element to the entry. There¿s no chronological description entailed in the entry, nor is any process
being described. Furthermore, the dish is completely raw and there is no consuming rate presented.

Evaluation is a part of the narrative especially crafted so that the emotional impact of the narrated experience
can be transmitted to its readers or listeners. Mark the option in which hooks shares her evaluation of the
narrated events with her readers.
All the options below were retrieved from: hooks, bell. Talking Back: Thinking Feminist, Thinking Black. Chapter
22: Writing Autobiography. Routledge: New York, 2015
"I remembered my mother's hope chest, with its wonderful odor of cedar, and thought about her taking
the most precious items and placing them there for safekeeping".
"I had met a young black man. We were having an affair".
"Within the world of my childhood, we held on to the legacy of a distinct black culture by listening to the
elders tell their stories".
"He drank often, smoked cigarettes, and always on the few occasions that we met him, he held us
children in tight embraces. It was the memory of those embraces--of the way I hated and longed to
resist them-that I recalled".
 "it was also interesting to read the narrative in its entirety after I had completed the work. It had not
occurred to me that bringing one's past, one's memories together in a complete narrative would allow
one to view them from a different perspective, not as singular isolated events but as part of a
continuum".
Respondido em 27/08/2023 17:23:48
Explicação:
Evaluations are parts of the narrative in which the narrator shares his feelings and viewpoints on the narrated events
with readers, sharing with them their emotional effects. In this excerpt: "it was also interesting to read the narrative in
its entirety after I had completed the work (¿)", hooks tells her readers that writing her memories allowed her to view
her own story from a different perspective.

The New York Times' approach to expository writing recommends varied designs for engaging expositions.
Expository writing may center on the axis problem- solution. Which of these statements better describes an
axis-problem solution in an essay?
It features speci�c narrations which are usually of human interest and may hook readers with a quote or
anecdote.
Despite the name of such style, some texts of this sort do not expose possible solutions for an issue.
Unlike academic genres, it does not need to be backed up by scienti�c evidence.This genre intends to give the reader options to solve or deal with an issue.
In such a style, projected readers are promptly engaged, having contact with the main information from
the start.

Read the following excerpt from Paulo Freire's paper entitled "The Importance of the Act of Reading" and
choose the option that best describes the role of this introductory paragraph:
The question of the importance of reading is addressed by considering the ways in which experience itself is
read through the interaction of the self and the world. Through examining memories of childhood, it is possible
to view objects and experiences as texts, words, and letters and to see the growing awareness of the world as a
kind of reading through which the self learns and changes. The actual act of reading literary texts is seen as one
aspect of the act of knowing and as a creative act. Reading the world thus precedes reading the word and
writing a new text must be seen as one means of transforming the world.
FREIRE, Paulo. "The Importance of the Act of Reading". The Journal of Education, v. 165, n. 1, p. 5-11.
It undermines traditional perspectives on reading by refuting that such act results from the interaction
of the self and the world.
 By describing how the author himself understands reading, it also summarizes the core idea of the text.
It delineates the focus of previous research on reading, outlining information that the author will refute
in the upcoming paragraphs.
It focuses on denying that reading includes "reading the word", de�ning the act instead as the "reading
of the world".
It brie�y discusses how reading has been traditionally taught and understood, analyzing the act of
reading from a conventional perspective.
Respondido em 27/08/2023 17:21:17
Explicação:
As introductions are supposed to, Paulo Freire's introductory paragraph provides the reader with a succinct overview
on the topic his text discusses: the importance of the act of reading, understood here as a complex process that
involves reading the world before reading the word. The correct option is thus: "By describing how the author himself
understands reading, it also summarizes the core idea of the text".

Choose the option containing a true statement concerning the verb tense employed in the following sentences.
"The fatty acid compositions were measured based on a well-established method (Folch, Lees, & Sloane-Stanley,
1957; Lepage & Roy, 1986). Each test was replicated three times for each experimental group." Retrieved from
https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/fsn3.1443
The necessity of replication of each test is an argument against the "methods" mentioned.
A future tense would be more adequate for the paragraph, since it argues for the relevance of methods
which will still be expounded later in the paper.
 The Simple Past tense is correctly employed since the authors are arguing for the relevance of their
methodology in that speci�c study.
The Simple Present tense would be more suitable in both sentences, since they support notions which
are characterized as "well-established".
The Present Perfect tense would be more suitable in the �rst sentence, for it consists of the description
of an area of research that led to the "well-established" method.
Respondido em 27/08/2023 17:34:34
Explicação:
As Swales and Feak (2004) indicate, authors of academic texts commonly use the past to describe researchers'
actions in single studies. Therefore, "The Simple Past tense is correctly employed since the authors are arguing for the
relevance of their methodology in that speci�c study".

Focusing on the effect of the covid-19 pandemic on marital relationships, Gaby Hinsliff's text is initiated by the
following introductory paragraph:
Love is not love, which alters when it alteration �nds. It¿s a beautiful sentiment around which to build a
Shakespearean sonnet, but in real life not everyone adapts to the dramatic changes thrust upon them in a
pandemic with the apparent grace of Kate Garraway. The TV presenter's husband, Derek Draper, almost died of
Covid; he is now back home after months in intensive care, but needs round-the-clock nursing. He can speak,
but can't hold what most people would regard as a conversation. It cannot be the life or the marriage either of
them dreamed of in their early 50s. But as she said hopefully at the weekend, she thinks they have found "a new
way to be in love", a relationship of complete trust and reliance. "That¿s a positive thing to come out of this, to
have that certainty of each other. He and I are very close."
HINSLIFF, Gaby. The pandemic has taught us that love can bend without breaking. Disponível em: The pandemic
has taught us all that love can bend without breaking | Gaby Hinsliff | The Guardian. Acesso em: 15 fev. 2022.
Now, choose the option that best summarizes the strategies employed by the author to attract the readers¿
attention and introduce the topic of the text as a whole:
Hinsliff turns to characters from Shakespeare's sonnets to prove that "love can bend without breaking"
and couples can make it through the turbulent times imposed by the pandemic.
 Hinsliff starts with a quote from a Shakespearean sonnet that endorses the main point of her text, that
"love can bend without breaking", and recurs to the touching story of a resilient couple to con�rm her
main argument.
Hinsliff's introduction analyzes the pros and cons of the circumstances faced by most couples during the
covid-19 pandemic, looking into the advantages and disadvantages of resilience.
Hinsliff provides statistics to validate the argument that marital relationships have been put to the test,
showing that even celebrities - such as Kate Garraway, a famous TV presenter - had her marriage
challenged by the hardships posed by covid-19.
Hinsliff promotes a balanced account of the hardships faced by couples during the pandemic, listing
reasons why some couples will not be as resilient as Kate Garraway and Derek Draper.
Respondido em 27/08/2023 17:33:35
Explicação:
The Shakespearean sonnet touches the heart of the question posed by the author, con�rming her thesis that "love can
bend without breaking". Kate Garraway and Derek Draper's experience validates Hinsliff's argument that love can
win the battle against the turmoil imposed by the pandemic.
