REPORTED LOVE SONG

E aqui está a música que contagiou o Acesso essa semana.
"Reported Love Song" foi gravado no Acesso Boqueirão com a maravilhosa participação da turma 2MB. Ficou bonito demais e merece todo o meu agradecimento!! :) O vídeo está em duas partes devido à falhas técnicas. Mas o importante é cantar.

Resolução de Exercícios Página 6

Ex.: 1
D - Nessa sentença temos duas ações. Uma é passado da outra. E o passado do passado chamamos de past perfect (HAD + verb [past]). O termo "before" é importante nessa sentença.

Ex.: 2
A - Essa é uma ação que ainda está acontecendo nesse momento. O termo "now" é importante nessa sentença.

Ex.: 3
B - A frase se refere a uma ação que começou no passado e terminou no passado. SIMPLE PAST.

Ex.: 4
D

Ex.: 5
E - O termo "lived" nos mostra que a frase está no passado. Portanto devemos continuar usando o passado.  Na frase "eles" (sujeito) estavam acostumados a acordar cedo quando eles viviam em Southampton. Eles não vivem mais lá, por isso usamos o Simple Past.

Ex.: 6
A - "next year" refere-se ao futuro. Por isso devemos usar o auxiliar "will".

Ex.: 7
B - ele acabou de olhar o número. Usamos o PRESENT PERFECT, porque ele olhou no passado, mas é muito recente, por isso ainda há uma ligação com o presente.

Ex.: 8
C - usamos o Simple Present para falar de "verdades universais". Eles falam árabe no Egito, ninguém contestaria isso.

Ex.: 9
B - A frase está no presente. Atente para o termo "now" [agora] que é usado com frases no presente. As únicas alternativas que estão no presente são a A e a B. Porém, a alternativa a está errada pois o verbo "own" [possuir] não é um verbo de ação e não pode ser usado na forma contínua.

Ex.: 10
E - "it's been raining" - usamos present perfect porque a ação começou no passado mas continua no presente. "I'm getting desperate" por que eu ainda estou na ação de ficar desesperado.

Ex.: 11
D

Ex.: 12
C

WE WALK

E vamos caminhando para o próximo sucesso. A música dos MODAL VERBS é inspirada na música WE WALK da banda The Ting Tings.
Vai curtindo a original pra ficar com o ritmo na cabeça e soltar a voz no show ao vivo na sede do Acesso mais próxima da sua casa!

ENJOY!



LYRICS:


You never alter, you're always you
Everything's breaking, but I don't care
Smash the rest up, burn it down
Put us in the corner 'cause we're into ideas

Take these edges, they're inside out
No one will notice, they're looking elsewhere
We can be honest, we call it off
We've got the choice if it all goes wrong

[chorus]
We walk
We walk
We walk
We wa-alk

You see the changes in things that come
It's how you deal with it when switching off
Make a decision, a precondition
We've got the choice if it all goes wrong

[chorus]

[Bridge]
When nothing makes you feel good... [x8]

We've got the choice if it all goes wrong

We walk
We walk (if it all goes wrong)
We walk
We wa-alk (if it all goes wrong)

We walk
We walk (it makes you feel good, it makes you feel god)
We walk
We wa-alk (when it all goes wrong)

We walk
We walk
We walk
We wa-alk
