    • 2- order

    • 2- case

    • 2- spite

    • 2- fact

    Correct Answer
    A. 2- fact
    Explanation
    "In (2) fact, learning how to recognise body language and how to use it to communicate your own message, is big business."

    "In fact" que pode ser traduzido como "na verdade", é a melhor opção para se completar a lacuna.

    Podemos dizer:

    "In order" que pode ser traduzido com "em ordem".

    Exemplo: Is everything in order, sir? Está tudo em ordem, senhor?

    "In case" que pode ser traduzido como "caso".

    Exemplo: You'd better take your umbrella in case it rains. É melhor você levar o seu guarda-chuva caso chova.

    Perceba que não dizemos "in spite", mas "in spite of" que pode ser traduzido como "apesar de".

    Exemplo: In spite of his age, he ran the London marathon. Apesar da sua idade, ele dorreu na maratona de Londres.

    • 6- should

    • 6- can

    • 6- might

    • 6- ought

    Correct Answer
    A. 6- ought
    Explanation
    "Welcoming body language, for example, (6) ought to include giving a friendly nod to say hello and leaning forward slightly to show you want to listen."

    "Ought to" é o único verbo acima que poder ser seguido de "to" + verbo, portanto a melhor opção para se completar a lacuna. Os demais verbos são seguidos pelo verbo no infinitivo sem to.

    Exemplos:

    I can play basketball.
    I should tell him about the problem.
    I might get there in time.
