Question

1-underline the linking words in the text below: All my friends were tired last night, so we decided not to go out. We went to Peter’s house, because the place is great and his parents are nice to us. We stayed there for hours but we didn’t watch TV. We played video games instead, because the TV programs were all boring. Jack could play with us or do something else, but he decided to go home, so he phoned his parents to pick him up earlier. I was not hungry, however, all of us ate pizza and drank soda. Although tomorrow is Friday, we don’t have classes in the morning, so we can go to bed late tonight. We are thinking of going to the movies or eating at a fast food restaurant. We can’t decide! Me Ajude Pfvr

Explicação: Linking Words (words of transition, transitional words ou connectors) são palavras da língua inglesa que possuem a função de estabelecer ligação entre as frases. Ou seja, é papel dessas palavras dar coerência e coesão textual em uma mesma oração. No português, é o que chamamos de conjunção.  

*So (conclusão)

exemplo: I was the last to leave the store, so I closed it. (Eu fui o último a sair da loja, então eu a fechei.)

*Because (causa e consequência)

exemplo: He took the medicine because his mother gave it to him. (Ele tomou o remédio porque sua mãe o deu a ele.)

*And (adição ou similaridade)

exemplo: She plays basketball and volleyball. (Ela joga basquete e vôlei.)

*But (oposição)

exemplo: They invited me, but I didn’t go. (Eles me convidaram, mas eu não fui.)

*Or (alternância e exclusão)

exemplo: Do you prefer Coke or Pepsi? (Você prefere Coca ou Pepsi)?

*However (oposição)

exemplo: The scientists made new discoveries; however, they faced many challenges. (Os cientistas fizeram novas descobertas; contudo, eles enfrentaram muitos desafios.)

*Although (oposição)

exemplo: Although we live away from each other, we always talk. (Embora moremos longe um do outro, nós sempre conversamos.)
