🔍 20 Pegadinhas EFOMM — REPORTED SPEECH — 🏛️ B3GE™

A EFOMM tem um padrão MUITO peculiar nas questões de reported speech:

✔ 1) Adora trocar palavras de referência (this/that, here/there, today/that day)

É a pegadinha n°1 das provas deles.
Eles colocam alternativas idênticas, mudando uma preposição ou um adverbial.


✔ 2) Ama confundir backshift x ausência de backshift

Principalmente com:

  • verdades universais

  • hábitos

  • declarações ainda verdadeiras

Eles querem ver se o candidato sabe que nem tudo muda para o passado.


✔ 3) Exploram erros de estrutura do imperativo

Trocando:

  • to + verb
    por

  • that + past

Clássico da EFOMM.


✔ 4) Criam ciladas com perguntas indiretas

Especialmente invertendo a ordem:
“if was he ready” (errado, mas muita gente cai).


✔ 5) Destruição total com modais que mudam x modais que não mudam

Eles adoram misturar:

  • must (às vezes muda, às vezes não)

  • should (nunca muda)

  • might (não muda)

  • can → could


✔ 6) Trabalham muito lógica de pronomes

Trocar I/me/you/he/her, baseado em contexto, é o CHÃO da prova da EFOMM.
