Have you ever thought about how students around the world begin their day? At Sunrise High, four friends talk about their morning activities. Anna wakes up at 6:30 and takes a quick shower. Tom walks to school because he lives nearby. Mai is in the library at 7:45 every morning to study before classes. Luis eats breakfast at home and then catches the school bus. Sarah and Emma meet in the cafeteria at 8 am. Identify the sentence in the text that uses the present tense of the verb to be to describe someone’s daily routine.

1. A) Sarah and Emma meet in the cafeteria at 8 am.
2. B) Tom walks to school because he lives nearby.
3. C) Mai is in the library at 7:45 every morning to study before classes.
4. D) Luis eats breakfast at home and then catches the school bus.
5. E) Anna wakes up at 6:30 and takes a quick shower.

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa C

Resolução passo a passo

1. Identifique o verbo principal de cada frase. Em 'Sarah and Emma meet', o verbo é meet. Em 'Tom walks' e 'he lives', são walks e lives. Em 'Luis eats' e 'catches', são eats e catches. Em 'Anna wakes up' e 'takes', são wakes up e takes. Nenhum desses verbos é o verbo to be. Passo 2: Na frase 'Mai is in the library at 7:45 every morning to study before classes', aparece a forma is, que é o presente do verbo to be (am, is, are) na terceira pessoa do singular, com o sujeito Mai. Passo 3: Essa frase descreve uma rotina diária, pois a expressão 'every morning' indica uma ação que se repete todos os dias. Passo 4: Por que as outras alternativas estão erradas: A) a frase usa o presente simples do verbo meet, sem o verbo to be; B) a frase usa o presente simples de walks e lives, sem o verbo to be; D) a frase usa o presente simples de eats e catches, sem o verbo to be; E) a frase usa o presente simples de wakes up e takes, sem o verbo to be. Conclusão: o gabarito C está correto, pois é a única frase com a forma is do verbo to be no presente.

💡 Dica: Procure a frase que usa o verbo 'to be' no presente para descrever rotina.
