Os advérbios são uma classe gramatical de palavras que modificam o sentido de um verbo, um adjetivo ou um outro advérbio. De acordo com seu significado, eles podem ser classificados como advérbios de modo, de tempo, de lugar, intensidade etc. Os textos a seguir são excertos de movie reviews. Neles, o uso de advérbios (e também de adjetivos) é bastante comum, pois são recursos que evidenciam a opinião do autor do review. SILVA, Marcelo José da. Língua Inglesa II. Maringá-Pr.: UniCesumar, 2014. Reimpresso em 2019.​ Texto 1 The Lion King (2019) Review Young Simba (JD McCrary, later Donald Glover) is destined to become king of Pride Rock like his father Mufasa (James Earl Jones). But his uncle Scar (Chiwetel Ejiofor) plots for the throne, and Simba ends up alone in exile. Can he ever regain his kingdom? By Helen O'Hara Another month, another Disney remake of an animated classic. There are two reasons that this film exists, and neither is because anything was missing from 1994’s furry Hamlet. The first is to show off genuinely dazzling visual effects, technological marvels that give us photo-real animals in an absolutely convincing setting. The second is to showcase the ability of Disney and director Jon Favreau, following 2016’s reimagining of The Jungle Book, to assemble a world-class voice cast. But it’s still not enough to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the great king of the past. (…) ​Disponível em: . Acesso em 17 de jul. 2019. Adaptado. Texto 2 The Wedding Guest Review Arriving in Pakistan, Jay (Dev Patel) arrives at a wedding not with a present but with a plan to kidnap the bride, Samira (Radhika Apte) so she can escape the clutches of an arranged marriage and be with her love, Deepesh (Jim Sarbh). It might sound like the kind of romcom Katherine Heigl might have starred in during the mid noughties, but The Wedding Guest is a very different kind of beast. Instead, writer-director Michael Winterbottom has produced a lacklustre thriller that, despite some good performances from the two leads, doesn’t find the textures or ways to elevate the genre in the way you’d expect from the protean filmmaker.

(…) If it takes too long to get going, Annabelle Comes Home also never quite kicks into full gear — it’s a film content to roll out every cliché one by one, without twisting them into something new and fun. The doll itself takes a back seat for much of the runtime, instead compelling other spirits to terrorise the teen trio — from killer brides and creepy priests, to the more effective folklore-inspired Ferryman, who feels most likely to get his own spin-off. More laughably, there’s the ‘Hellhound of Essex’ — who not only feels incongruous but stretches the budget beyond its capabilities. ​ Disponível em: . Acesso em 17 de jul. 2019. Adaptado. Texto 4 Toy Story 4 Review Woody (Tom Hanks) is struggling to adjust to his new position in Bonnie’s toybox. He’s no longer in charge, and is getting left in the cupboard with increasing regularity. But when Bonnie creates her own toy, Forky (Tony Hale), Woody finds new purpose: teach the confused newborn the ways of toys. One that is complicated when, during a road-trip, the pair get separated from the rest of the gang. (…) Fourth instalments have never been easy. The likes of Rocky IV and Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home are easily outnumbered by such fourquel farragoes as Superman: The Quest For Peace, Batman & Robin and Jaws: The Revenge. These days, it is a brave studio that ventures into post-trilogy territory without a Harry Potter-style series blueprint. But Pixar, as we well know, is one of the bravest. It can afford to be, with a 15-out-of-15-star trilogy like Toy Story in its Hall Of Fame. (...) Disponível em: . Acesso em 17 de jul. 2019.

Answer 1

Resposta:

Alternativa 2 - IV, apenas

Explicação:

I - No Texto 1, os advérbios genuinely e absolutely, no trecho “The first is to show off genuinely dazzling visual effects, technological marvels that give us photo-real animals in an absolutely convincing setting”, modificam verbos que estão no Present Continuous.   - as palavras destacadas não estão no present continuous.

II - No Texto 2, o advérbio de intensidade, no trecho “The Wedding Guest is a very different kind of beast”, modifica dois adjetivos: different e kind.  - 'kind' é um substantivo.

III - No Texto 3, o trecho “If it takes too long to get going, Annabelle Comes Home also never quite kicks into full” apresenta um advérbio de intensidade, too. Este advérbio pode ser substituído por also, sem que haja uma importante modificação no sentido do texto.  - 'also' não é um intensifier, portanto não pode substituir 'too' neste contexto.
