Hi, everyone! No cartoon de hoje, como sempre, temos uma imagem com uma fala, perguntas e um exemplo.  Você usa a imaginação para dar suas próprias respostas em inglês nos comentários.

Inglês com Cartoons #82Perguntas

(a) What’s Ms. Taylor going to do with the curtains? O que a sra. Taylor vai fazer com as cortinas?

(b) Is she going to pay the man?  Ela vai pagar o homem?

(c) Is she going to see this man again? Ela vai ver esse homem novamente?

Minhas respostas

(a) She’s going to fold them and put them in a drawer. She thought she was going to need them, but she changed her mind later.  Ela vai dobrá-las e colocá-las numa gaveta. Ela pensou que ia precisar delas, mas mudou de ideia depois.

(b) No. They have an arrangement: she bakes him cakes, and he takes care of her laundry (he owns a laundry shop). Não. Eles tem um acordo: ela faz bolos pra ele, e ele cuida da roupa suja dela (ele é dono de uma lavanderia).

(c) Yes. He secretly likes her, and he’s going to ask her out, and she is going to say ‘yes’. Sim. Ele gosta dela (em segredo), e ele vai chamá-la para sair, e ela vai aceitar.

 

Obs.: Ms. é um pronome de tratamento neutro, que não indica se a mulher é casada, solteira, divorciada, etc.

 

                 E você? Quais seriam as suas respostas?

E aqui vai o PDF com o cartoon anterior – Let’s Dance – com todas as respostas (editadas quando necessário) para quem quiser guardar.
