Read:
There was little to reach the farm now, very little, a miserable distance, and yet it cost him more than the rest of the journey. He closed his eyes and let the horse run aimlessly, galloping noisily through the dew-damp earth. He was panting, haunted by ghosts, he saw his victim, his mouth wide open, his eyes convulsing, the speak strange things to him in a dying voice, his tongue hanging out, huge and black, among the gurgles of blood. And he also saw that infamous priest appear, tap him on the shoulder, present him, smiling, with a hint, propose a condition and immediately move on to the brutal threat: “I've got you in my hand, murderer! If you want to punish me, I'll deliver you to justice!"
AZEVEDO, Aluisio. “The Mulatto". São Paulo: Martin Claret, 2006, p.63.
Question 1 - Identify the sentence that was transcribed without the necessary accent indicator:
( ) “[…] to reach the farm […]”
( ) “[…] via his victim […]”
( ) “[…] with a wide open mouth […]”
Question 2 - In the passage “[…] let the horse run aimlessly […]”, the crase composes an adverbial phrase that indicates:
( ) quite
( ) mode
( ) place
Question 3 - In the excerpt “[…] talking to you about strange things […]”, there is no crasis. Because?
( ) Because you don't use a crase before a verb.
( ) Because you don't use a crase before a verb in the infinitive.
( ) Because you don't use a crasis before a verb that expresses action.
Question 4 – In the part “[…] to the brutal threat […]”, the crasis is the contraction of the preposition required by a verb with the article “a” that defines the noun “threat”. Point the aforementioned verb:
( ) "introduce you"
( ) "propose"
( ) "pass"
Question 5 - In “[…] I deliver you to justice!”, the crasis forms:
( ) a direct object
