🔍 20 Pegadinhas IME — REPORTED SPEECH — 🏛️ B3GE™

O IME tem uma assinatura própria — ele não quer só gramática; ele quer coerência lógica, temporal e científica.

Aqui está o DNA das provas:


✔ 1) AMA backshift cirúrgico

Mas apenas quando o contexto justifica.
Se for universal truth → sem mudança.
Se for ação passada anterior → muda tudo.


✔ 2) AMA estruturas longas com várias camadas

O IME adora sentenças com:

  • duas orações subordinadas

  • tempos contínuos

  • past perfect

  • advérbios de tempo

  • reported speech
    E ele quer ver se você sincroniza tudo sem quebrar a lógica.


✔ 3) AMA coerência ontológica

Quando a frase envolve fatos científicos, leis matemáticas ou proposições lógicas,
NUNCA muda o tempo verbal.


✔ 4) AMA manipular advérbios de tempo

Eles amam alternativas que mudam:

  • the week before

  • the previous day

  • the following month

  • the next morning
    Se UM deles estiver errado → você cai.


✔ 5) AMA armadilhas de inversão em perguntas

ITA e IME dividem isso, mas o IME é ainda mais cruel.
Eles querem ver se você tira a inversão SEM PIEDADE.


✔ 6) AMA precisão de modais

Especialmente:

  • must → had to

  • could / might / would (sem backshift)

  • should (mantido)

E uma alternativa muda UM desses → você erra.
