Choose the option that corresponds to this coordinating conjunction:</p><p>A</p><p>And</p><p>B</p><p>But</p><p>C</p><p>So</p><p>D</p><p>For</p><p>E</p><p>Or</p><p>Resposta incorreta</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra B. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: In Australian English, we can find, in colloquial language usage, another position for the conjunction but. Instead of occupying the initial position in a clause, it can be placed at the end. This is, however, a very specific colloquial use of this variety.</p><p>2</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>In negative sentences, ellipsis can also occur in the second clause, using the word either or neither. Based on it, put the affirmative sentence my friend said it, and I did too in its negative form, considering the use of either. Choose the grammatically correct option:</p><p>A</p><p>My friend didn't say it, and I didn't either.</p><p>B</p><p>My friend didn't say it, and I didn't too.</p><p>C</p><p>My friend didn't say it, and I either did.</p><p>D</p><p>My friend didn't say it, and I said either.</p><p>E</p><p>My friend didn't say it, and I either.</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra A. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: Either and too are very similar in usage. They tend to be placed at the end of sentences. Whereas either is used with negative sentences, too is used with positive ones. What¿s more, to correctly use either, the auxiliary verb should also be used. Only the sentence My friend didn¿t say it, and I didn¿t either exemplifies its correct use. The other options either place the word incorrectly after the subject, omit the auxiliary verb altogether, or use the main verb, instead of the auxiliary verb.</p><p>3</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>Among the coordinating conjunctions (and, or, so, etc.), the use of nor has unique syntactic features which distinguish it from other conjunctions. Nor links two negative ideas and inverts the subject-verb order. Based on it, what is the option that correctly presents the use of nor?</p><p>A</p><p>She won't give you another chance, I nor will.</p><p>B</p><p>She won't give you another chance, nor I will.</p><p>C</p><p>She won't give you another chance, nor I won't.</p><p>D</p><p>She won't give you another chance, I nor won't</p><p>E</p><p>She won't give you another chance, nor will I.</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra E. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: A conjunção nor tem características sintáticas únicas que a distinguem de outras conjunções. Ela conecta duas ideias negativas e inverte a ordem sujeito-verbo. Quando a palavra nor é usada, ocorre a inversão sujeito-verbo. O verbo auxiliar deve preceder o pronome I. Para evitar dupla negação, apenas verbos auxiliares afirmativos ou verbos modais devem ser usados, neste caso, will. Portanto, apenas a frase "She won't give you another chance, nor will I" está correta.</p><p>4</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>Correlative conjunctions are composed of a pair of conjunctions: the first conjunction is used in the first clause and the other one is used in the second clause. Based on it, choose the option that correctly completes the following sentence: "Maria has studied not only in Italy _______ in France".</p><p>A</p><p>Nor</p><p>B</p><p>Or</p><p>C</p><p>But also</p><p>D</p><p>Neither</p><p>E</p><p>Either</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra C. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: The pairs of correlative conjunctions are the following: both...and, neither...nor, not only...but also, either...or, which convey addition, exclusion, alternatives. Whenever we use not only in the first clause, the second clause is initiated by but also. The correct answer is thus but also.</p><p>5</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>In oral language, people tend to use more coordinating conjunctions than transition words. Based on it, choose the best conjunction to replace the transition word in the following sentence: The Sun is a big star. However, there are much bigger stars in the Universe.</p><p>A</p><p>Nor</p><p>B</p><p>And</p><p>C</p><p>For</p><p>D</p><p>So</p><p>E</p><p>But</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra E. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: However refers to the idea of contrast, which means that the second clause introduces an idea that contradicts the expectation of the first one. The coordinating conjunction which has similar meaning is but. The others convey either addition (and, nor), cause (for) or result (so).</p><p>6</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>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?</p><p>A</p><p>You may win, or you may lose this game.</p><p>B</p><p>I'll order pasta, tomatoes, lettuce, grapes...</p><p>C</p><p>She loves him, but she needs to leave him now.</p><p>D</p><p>Chomsky is famous, for he's written important books.</p><p>E</p><p>He can really sing, so he can try a musical career.</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra B. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>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.</p><p>7</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>Coordinating conjunctions are used in written and oral language to link similar elements and convey different meanings. Based on it, what is the meaning conveyed by the coordinating conjunction in the following sentence: Do you like tomatoes or not?</p><p>A</p><p>Alternative</p><p>B</p><p>Addition</p><p>C</p><p>Contrast</p><p>D</p><p>Cause</p><p>E</p><p>Result</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra A. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>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. Or, on the other hand, is used to introduce different alternatives, meaning one or another. Therefore, only alternative is correct.</p><p>8</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>According to Celce-Murcia and Larsen-Freeman (1999), complex coordination is a structure based on a two-part correlative conjunction. Bearing this in mind, what is the option that correctly shows a complex coordination with a correlative conjunction?</p><p>A</p><p>Jessica and John have drunk soda.</p><p>B</p><p>Both Peter and John went to school.</p><p>C</p><p>He loves chocolate, but he can't eat it.</p><p>D</p><p>Did you go to the beach or not?</p><p>E</p><p>I didn't go the beach, nor did my friend.</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra B. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: As conjunções correlativas formam pares como Both... and, neither... nor, not only... but also, either... or. A única frase que demonstra esse uso é Both Peter and John went to school. As outras frases mostram conjunções coordenativas and, but, or e nor sendo usadas. Portanto, a alternativa correta é a B, pois apresenta a estrutura de coordenação complexa com uma conjunção correlativa, conforme definido por Celce-Murcia e Larsen-Freeman (1999).</p><p>9</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>Transitions words, just like coordinating conjunctions, can link sentences to convey different meanings. Based on it, what is the meaning conveyed by transitions words, such as however and nevertheless?</p><p>A</p><p>Contrast</p><p>B</p><p>Addition</p><p>C</p><p>Result</p><p>D</p><p>Cause</p><p>E</p><p>Alternative</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra A. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: As palavras de transição however e nevertheless têm significados semelhantes, pois ambas transmitem contraste. Outras palavras de transição são usadas quando as cláusulas conectadas se referem a ideias diferentes, como adição ou causa. Por exemplo, furthermore é usado para adição, enquanto</p><p>result é usado para causa.</p><p>10</p><p>Marcar para revisão</p><p>In negative sentences, we can also use neither, instead of either. But neither changes the subject-verb order in the second coordinate clause. Based on it, transform the sentence Spain hasn't won a gold medal in 2021, and Mexico hasn't either, replacing either for neither:</p><p>A</p><p>Spain hasn't won a gold medal in 2021, and neither has Mexico.</p><p>B</p><p>Spain hasn't won a gold medal in 2021, and neither hasn't Mexico.</p><p>C</p><p>Spain hasn't won a gold medal in 2021, and Mexico neither hasn't.</p><p>D</p><p>Spain hasn't won a gold medal in 2021, and neither Mexico hasn't.</p><p>E</p><p>Spain hasn't won a gold medal in 2021, neither and Mexico hasn't.</p><p>Questão não respondida</p><p>Opa! A alternativa correta é a letra A. Confira o gabarito comentado!</p><p>Gabarito Comentado</p><p>Feedback: Neither is a negative word, meaning that it cannot be followed by another word in its negative form. Double negatives should be avoided at all costs in English and that's why the auxiliary verb hasn't cannot follow the word neither. What's more, neither triggers subject-verb inversion. Therefore, the only correct option is: Spain hasn't won a gold medal in 2021, and neither has Mexico.</p>
