I have always been a work-hard, play-hard kind of guy I grew up in Idaho and my family did a lot of adventure sports like rock climbing and white-water rafting Lately, people have named these activities "extreme sports", but to me they have always seemed just normal fun and I love skydiving Since I got married last year, my wife has practiced skydiving with me.

1) qual é o tempo verbal presente no texto? ​

Answer 1

O texto acima se encontra no tempo verbal do "Simple past", ou seja, no passado simples.

Podemos inferir isso a partir das formas verbais utilizadas no texto, como por exemplo "named" e "seemed". Veja que essas formas apresentam um sufixo "-ed/-d", o que significa que estão conjugadas no passado e vieram de um verbo do tipo regular. Entretanto, algumas outras formas, como "grew", são específicas do "simple past" e não apresentam sufixo. Isso ocorre pois suas formas infinitivas são do tipo irregular.
