- "Many adolescents act this way because they feel frustrated or angry "

The comparative form of the underlined word is

>> EXPLICAÇÃO
- ANGRY é adjetivo com duas sílabas e nesta questão é exigido a FORMA COMPARATIVA do referido adjetivo.
- Lembrando que adjetivos curtos (até duas sílabas) pedem a transformação Adjetivo + er + than, e quando o adjetivo termina com Y, o mesmo deve ser substituído por “i”, sendo assim, teremos então: angrier than.
- Usamos MORE para adjetivos com mais de 2(duas) sílabas, o que elimina de imediato as opções (a), (c) e (d).
41 – "At other times they do it just for fun or because have nothing else to do." (lines 23-24).
Mark the option that substitutes the underlined sentence correctly.
a) have anything else to do.

c) don't have anything else to do.
não tem mais nada para fazer.
d) don't havesomething else to do.
d) don't have
não tem mais nada para fazer.
>> EXPLICAÇÃO
- “Have nothing else to do” é uma frase na forma negativa , pois NOTHING é usado em frase afirmativa, tornando-a negativa, o que elimina de imediato as opções (a) e (b) que estão na forma positiva, restando portanto as opções (c) e (d) que estão na forma negativa (don’t).
- Perceba o uso inadequado de SOMETHING em “don’t have something else to do”. Neste caso, deveremos usar ANYTHING, o que elimina a opção (d).
- DICA DE GRAMÁTICA (1): SOMETHING é usado em frases afirmativas significando “alguma coisa”.
- DICA DE GRAMÁTICA (2): ANYTHING pode ser usado em frases negativas significa “nada“ e em frases afirmativas significa “qualquer coisa”.
- Portanto, “have nothing else to do” e “don’t have anything else to do

>> EXPLICAÇÃO
- A situação apresenta dois substantivos no PLURAL destacados “Many countries” e “adults and children”.
- O 1º substantivo funciona como sujeito da oração e portanto, deve-se substitui-lo por um Subject Pronoun , sendo assim, “Many countries” é substituído por THEY.
- O 2º substantivo funciona como objeto do verbo (make) e portanto, deve-se substitui-lo por um Object Pronoun, sendo assim, “adults and children” é substituído por THEM.
- Portanto (c) é a resposta correta.
- "Many countries" (plural, antes da estrutura verbal "have organized") ➜ THEY.
- "adults and children" (plural, depois do verbo "to make") ➜ THEM.
