Hello, everybody! I am Clara. I live in São Miguel
do Araguaia. I am 12 years old. And I want to share
with you the things I did last month.
My mom and I were watching TV at night, when
my father arrived at home. He was very happy
because he decided to go camping with us. We
travelled to Baliza. It took us 8 hours to get there.
During the trip, we stopped a lot and we took lots of
pictures of animals and plants. It was almost
midnight when we arrived at the camping area. We
visited some beautiful places. We swam in the river
and we had lots of fun together. We spent 5 days
there. It was amazing.

Respostas
Os erros são o uso de a) "moved", b) "mother" e c) "in the morning", que devem ser substituidos por "traveled", "father" e "at midnight", respectivamente.
O texto aborda as atividades de Clara no mês passado. Ela conta sobre a sua viagem em família para Baliza para acampar. Além disso, ela descreve que tirou muitas fotos, nadou no rio e visitou diversos lugares lindos.
Corrigindo as sentenças, temos:
a) Clara TRAVELED to Baliza with her family last month.
Clara fez apenas uma viagem (traveled) para Baliza, e não se mudou (moved). Ela mora em São Miguel do Araguaia.
b) Clara’s FATHER was very happy because they decided to go camping.
O texto afirma que o pai de Clara estava feliz pela viagem em: "He was very happy..."
c) They arrived at the camping area AT MIDNIGHT.
A família chegou na área de camping cerca de meia noite, e não pela manhã (morning).
Sendo assim, os erros são o uso de "moved", "mother" e "in the morning", que devem ser corrigidos por "traveled", "father" e "at midnight", respectivamente.
Espero ter ajudado!
