An English teacher was reviewing embedded clauses with her advanced class when she wrote the sentence: "What the committee decided remains confidential." She asked students to analyze the underlined clause, noting that it cannot stand alone as a complete sentence, that it occupies the position typically filled by a noun phrase, and that "what" functions here not as an interrogative pronoun but as a clause introducer subordinating the entire embedded clause to the main verb "remains." Students correctly identified the syntactic function of this clause as:

I.A "Simple Sentence" contains only one independent clause and no subordinate clauses, even if it has a compound subject or verb.

II.A "Compound Sentence" consists of two or more independent clauses joined by coordinating conjunctions such as "and," "but," or "or."

III.A "Complex Sentence" is formed by joining two or more independent clauses without the use of any dependent clauses or relative pronouns.

English is primarily an SVO (Subject-Verb-Object) language, meaning the position of a word often determines its grammatical role. However, certain structures allow for "Inversion" for emphasis or literary effect. Regarding sentence structure, mark T for True and F for False:

(__)Subject-Auxiliary Inversion is mandatory in most direct questions, such as "Have you seen the film?" instead of "You have seen the film."

(__)The "Direct Object" always follows the "Indirect Object" when the preposition "to" or "for" is omitted, as in "He gave her the flowers."

(__)In English, the adjective must always be placed after the noun it modifies to ensure the sentence follows a logical predicative order.

(__)A "Complement" is a word or phrase that completes the meaning of a subject or object, often following a linking verb like "be" or "seem."

After analysis, choose the alternative that presents the correct sequence:

The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes, Arthur Conan Doyle. A Scandal in Bohemia (Part I)


    I had seen little of Holmes lately. My marriage had drifted us away from each other. My own complete happiness, and the home-centred interests which rise up around the man who first finds himself master of his own establishment, were sufficient to absorb all my attention, while Holmes, who loathed every form of society with his whole Bohemian soul, Blank I in our lodgings in Baker Street, buried among his old books, and alternating from week to week between cocaine and ambition, the drowsiness of the drug, and the fierce energy of his own keen nature. He was still, as ever, deeply attracted by the study of crime, and occupied his immense faculties and extraordinary powers of observation in following out those clues, and clearing up those mysteries which had been abandoned as hopeless by the official police. From time to time I Blank II some vague account of his doings: of his summons to Odessa in the case of the Trepoff murder, of his clearing up of the singular tragedy of the Atkinson brothers at Trincomalee, and finally of the mission which he had accomplished so delicately and successfully for the reigning family of Holland. Beyond these signs of his activity, however, which I merely shared with all the readers of the daily press, I knew little of my former friend and companion.

One night – it was on the twentieth of March, 1888 – I was returning from a journey to a patient (for I had now returned to civil practice), when my way led me through Baker Street. As I Blank III the well-remembered door, which must always be associated in my mind with my wooing, and with the dark incidents of the Study in Scarlet, I was seized with a keen desire to see Holmes again, and to know how he was employing his extraordinary powers. His rooms were brilliantly lit, and, even as I looked up, I saw his tall, spare figure pass twice in a dark silhouette against the blind. He was pacing the room swiftly, eagerly, with his head sunk upon his chest and his hands clasped behind him. To me, who knew his every mood and habit, his attitude and manner told their own story. He was at work again. He had risen out of his drug-created dreams and was hot upon the scent of some new problem. I rang the bell and was shown up to the chamber which had formerly been in part my own.

His manner was not effusive. It seldom was; but he was glad, I think, to see me. With hardly a word spoken, but with a kindly eye, he waved me to an armchair, threw across his case of cigars, and indicated a spirit case and a gasogene in the corner. Then he stood before the fire and looked me over in his singular introspective fashion.

When the Classroom Goes Online

Over the past decade, the English classroom has changed more than it had in the previous hundred years. Mobile phones, social networks, artificial intelligence tools and online platforms are now part of students’ daily lives, and the teaching of English can no longer ignore this reality.

However, the use of technology in language education is not a matter of simply replacing books with screens. What truly matters is how these resources are used. A video, a message exchange, a podcast or an online discussion only become educational when they are integrated into meaningful learning situations, connected to students’ experiences and guided by clear pedagogical objectives.

Teachers who understand this shift no longer see themselves as the only source of knowledge. Instead, they act as mediators who help learners build meaning, develop autonomy and reflect on language use in real communicative contexts. This perspective is strongly supported by the principles of the Brazilian National Common Core (BNCC), which emphasizes the social and functional use of language.

In this sense, learning English is not just about memorizing structures or rules. It involves interpreting texts, negotiating meaning, expressing identity and participating in global conversations. When the classroom goes online, it does not lose its educational role — it expands it.
