(AFA - 2011)

When football _____ professional in South Africa in 1959, 12 clubs broke from the amateur ranks. However, in the strict days of Apartheid, these pioneers _____ whites-only organizations and _____ today, all but a few, defunct. One of the survivors is Arcadia from Tshwane/ Pretoria, an outfit that today competes in the amateur ranks and concentrates on junior football.

Mark the alternative which completes the gaps from the text correctly.

A
had gone – have been – were
B
went – were – are
C
have been – have been – would be
D
was – had been – will be

Gabarito: went – were – are

Resolução:

Lacuna I: When football _____ professional in South Africa in 1959 ⇒ Aqui temos uma frase que expressa algo que aconteceu no passado e se limitou ao passado, nesse sentido devemos utilizar o Simple Past e o verbo "to go" para indicar que algo se tornou/virou, ou seja, "When football went professional" ou também poderia ser utilizado o "became", mas essa não é uma opção que existe nas alternativas.

Lacuna II: in the strict days of Apartheid, these pioneers _____ whites-only organizations ⇒ Nesse caso temos uma frase que indica outra vez um evento que começou e terminou no passado, então deve ser usado o "to be" no Simple Past, ficando "in the strict days of Apartheid, these pioneers were whites-only organizations"

Lacuna III: and _____ today ⇒ Temos uma frase que indica o presente das organizações mencionadas na frase anterior, então o "to be" vai continuar sendo utilizado e deve ser conjugado no Simple Present, ficando "are" concordando com a terceira pessoa do plural "they".

Resposta correta: went - were - are ⇒ alternativa B
