The name of this bird already gives the first indications about one of its main characteristics: the preference for swamps and flooded areas.
The brejo chopim has a plumage, as the names already indicate, centered in black and yellow tones.
In addition, it is also known for its melodious, unmistakable song, which it presents even while flying (the sound it emits is a kind of “tac-tac”).
In general, it measures 24 centimeters, with 70 grams of weight. It usually lives in a flock and often performs with its peers, almost always perched next to each other a foot away.
Available in:. (With cuts).
Question 1 – In the section “The name of this bird already gives the first indications about one of its main […]”, there are two words highlighted for the same reason. Please provide this reason:
Question 2 – The word “characteristics” is emphasized because it:
( ) is proparoxytone.
( ) is an oxytone ending in “a”, followed by “s”.
( ) is a paroxytone ending in a diphthong, followed by “s”.
Question 3 – Underline the accented word oxytone below:
“[…] it is also known for its melodious singing […]”
Question 4 – Why is the underlined word above accented?
Question 5 – Identify the segment, in which the highlighted word is paroxytone:
( ) "[…] The preference through marshes and flooded areas.”
( ) “[…] unmistakable, which he presents even while flying […]”
( ) “In general, it measures 24 centimeters, weighing 70 grams.”
Question 6 – One word has been transcribed without an accent in the passage below. Put it:
“[…] almost always perched next to each other a hand's breadth apart.”
