Faça aqui a atividade proposta! Prepositions in English Today we're going to practice the use of some Prepositions in English. It's important to know that a preposition has the main function of establishing a relationship between two entities (expressed by the two words or expressions that come around it). Eg.: "I see it written IN your eyes". That means, the preposition IN indicates a relationship of location between the word WRITTEN and the word EYES. We can see a lot of similar examples of the use of prepositions in English in today's song... "Slipping Away", by Max Merritt & The Meteors It's been a musical hit from the past till the present days. Your task is very simple. 1- You will listen to the song; 2- The song lyrics is on the video screen; 3- There are some spaces intentionally left in blank (in parentheses) in the songs lyrics, LIKE THIS: (______); 4- All you have to do is FILL IN THE BLANKS WITH THE PREPOSITIONS YOU HEAR while you listen to the song. 5- Before starting the exercise, let's practice the pronunciation of some commun English prepositions.
