Both statements contain a future time structure, with a simple aspect. Journalists who want to use an argument from authority tend to prefer the �rst one, since the second does not attribute the statement to trustworthy professionals. Writers who want to omit the agent tend to prefer the �rst structure over the second.

Respondido em 07/10/2023 13:03:24 Explicação: A resposta correta é: They are both conjunctions. Coordinators link words of the same kind and subordinators introduce a new clause. Acerto: 0,2 / 0,2 In traditional grammar, coordination is divided in two types: syndetic and asyndetic coordination. The latter consists in the omission of a conjunction, and the former consists in use of it. Based on it, which option is structured by asyndetic coordination? Chomsky is famous, for he's written important books. He can really sing, so he can try a musical career. You may win, or you may lose this game. I'll order pasta, tomatoes, lettuce, grapes... She loves him, but she needs to leave him now. Respondido em 07/10/2023 13:04:57 Explicação: Feedback: All options contain coordinating conjunctions, such as or, but, for and so, meaning that they are examples of syndetic coordination. The only alternative in which elements are linked without the help of coordinators is I¿ll order pasta, tomatoes, lettuce, grapes... In this case, commas are being used instead of conjunctions so this is the only example of asyndetic coordination. Acerto: 0,2 / 0,2 Read the following statements and label each one as either True (T) or False (F). (1) Structures in the Passive Voice shift the focus to the patient of the action Questão / 3 a Questão / 4 a Questão / 5 a (2) We should use the main verbs of structures in the Passive Voice in the past participle form. (3) The Present Perfect Continuous form is commonly used in the Passive Voice to convey a more informal tone to the texts. Choose the correct sequence (1)T / (2)T / (3)F (1)F / (2)T / (3)F (1)F / (2)F / (3)F (1)T / (2)T / (3)T (1)T / (2)F / (3)F Respondido em 07/10/2023 13:07:13 Explicação: Whenever we make use of sentences in the passive voice, the patient of the action becomes more prominent. Who or what undergoes the action carried out by the agent is focused in sentences formed by passive structures. What¿s more, the passive voice is formed by the verb to be followed by the main verb in the past participle form. Therefore, (1) and (2) are correct. An informal tone is perceptible by the use of contractions and not by the use of present perfect continuous, which invalidates statement (3). Acerto: 0,2 / 0,2 Word classes can be divided into two groups: the open and the closed classes. What is the option that presents a closed word class, that is, a class of grammatical and structure words?

So For Nor But And Respondido em 07/10/2023 13:11:11 Explicação: Feedback: The coordinating conjunctions, aside from and, are: or, nor, so, but, yet and for. While and and nor relate to addition, but and yet relate to contrast and for is the coordinating conjunction that refers to cause. Nor, however, even though it relates to addition, links negative sentences and triggers subject-verb inversion. Acerto: 0,2 / 0,2 Some episodes of TV shows usually end with the following phrase: ''To be continued''. Choose the alternative that better explains its meaning. It shows that the story has �nally come to an end, however awkward it may be. A sentence with identical meaning effects would be ''Screenwriters are yet to conclude this episode''. It calls the public¿s attention to the screenwriters who have created the episode. It shows that the episode is yet to be concluded, omitting the screenwriters. It is written in the future tense.
