Question

Put the adverbs in the correct place, as in the example. 1 Crocodiles eat grass. (never) › Crocodiles never eat grass. 2 I swim before lunch. (sometimes) 3 Tigers hunt at noon. (usually) 4 Ben is late for school. (often) 5 They walk their dog at night. (always) 6 Chameleons' tongues are long. (usually)​

Answer 1

As frases com os advérbios (adverbs) corretos em parênteses são as seguintes:

2) I swim before lunch sometimes.

3) Tigers usually hunt at noon.

4) Ben is often late for school.

5) They always walk their dog at night.

6) Chameleons' tongues are usually long.

Os advérbios podem vir sempre entre o sujeito e o verbo principal (como vemos nas frases 3 e 5), ou até mesmo após o objeto da frase (frase 2). Mas atenção, os advérbios em Inglês nunca devem ser posicionados entre o verbo principal o o objeto.

Entretanto, nos casos em que o verbo principal é o to be, como vemos nas frases 4 e 6, podemos posicionar o advérbio após a forma verbal.
