	 2a Questão (Ref.: 201603334146)
	Acerto: 1,0  / 1,0
	The author of this passage, William Finnegan, describes an experience surfing in very high waves off Ocean Beach in San Francisco. Only the very bravest and most experienced surfers attempt these waves in the winter. As the passage begins, the author and a friend have paddled out but were still too close to shore when a huge set of waves trapped them inside. Read the text below and answer the proposed question: The first wave snapped my ankle leash--a ten-foot length of polyurethane, strong enough to pull a car uphill--as if it were a piece of string. (2) I swam underneath that wave and then kept swimming, toward the open ocean. (3) The second wave looked like a three-story building. (4) It, like the first wave, was preparing to break a few yards in front of me. (5) I dived deep and swam hard. (6) The lip of the wave hitting the surface above me sounded like a bolt of lightning exploding at very close range, and it filled the water with shock waves. (7) I managed to stay underneath the turbulence, but when I surfaced I saw that the third wave of the set belonged to another order of being. (8) It was bigger, thicker, and drawing much more heavily off the bottom than the others. (9) My arms felt rubbery, and I started hyperventilating. (10) I dived very early and very deep. (11) The deeper I swam, the colder and darker the water got. (12) The noise as the wave broke was preternaturally low, a basso profundo of utter violence, and the force pulling me backward and upward felt like some nightmare of gravity. (13) Again, I managed to escape, and when I finally surfaced I was far outside. (14) There were no more waves, which was fortunate, since I was sure that one more would have finished me. --William Finnegan, "Surfing," The New Yorker Which three senses does Finnegan's description appeal to?

	 3a Questão (Ref.: 201603862744)
	Acerto: 1,0  / 1,0
	Which alternative is wrong?
		
	
	A metaphor is "a figure of speech containing an implied comparison, in which a word or phrase ordinarily and primarily used of one thing is applied to another.
	
	We use relative clauses to give additional information about something without starting another sentence. By combining sentences with a relative clause, your text becomes more fluent and you can avoid repeating certain words.
	 
	A metaphor is the same as a simile.
	
	In a Descriptive essay, you should make an effort to attract the reader's attention through a good selection of adjectives and verbs so that you can create a lively and interesting Description.

	wale5a Questão (Ref.: 201604226396)
	Acerto: 1,0  / 1,0
	Which alternative is wrong?
		
	
	A second person narrator uses the pronoun "you" and is not used very often since it makes the reader a participant in the story (and you, as reader, may be reluctant to be in the action!).
	
	Multiple narrators of the story can also present multiple points of view.
	
	A third person narrator uses the pronoun "he" or "she" and does not take part in the story.
	 
	A subjective narrator is generally reliable because he/she is in the story, and can only speak to his/her experience within it.
	
	A first person narrator uses the pronoun "I" to tell the story, and can be either a major or minor character. It may be easier for a reader to relate to a story told in a first person account.
