"Say, officer! You seem upset. But why do you want to see my license and registration 1? Don't you have any of your own? You know it's a crime to drive without them, right? If you get pulled over 2, you could be in real trouble! I hope it won't sound like I'm bragging 3, but I've had quite a bit of alcohol 4 tonight, so I'd better keep my license in my pocket. I might need it if I get stopped by the police!"

1 registration: "Registration" is the correct choice here. Any time a police officer pulls over a motorist ("driver" in the US), he or she will usually ask to see the motorist's driver's license and vehicle registration papers. A driver's license is proof of the legal right to drive, and registration is the proof of ownership of a vehicle.
2 pulled over: "Pulled over" is the correct choice here. To "get pulled over" is to be stopped by a police officer while driving. To "pull (a car) over" is to direct it to the side of the road. Example: I finally pulled my car over to the curb after the police had been chasing me for 30 minutes.
3 bragging: "Bragging" is the correct choice here. To "brag" is to "boast" or to talk in an arrogant manner. Example: He's always bragging about the size of his feet, I'm very jealous of him. Warbuckle says "I don't mean to brag, but I'm kind of important", meaning that he doesn't wish to be arrogant, but he is important (and rich).
4 alcohol: "Alcohol" is the correct choice here. And there is no doubt that Warbuckle has been drinking a lot of it.
Exercício 2
Which of the following pairs of words from this article are synonyms?
Which of the following pairs of words from this article are synonyms?
This is incorrect. 'Mood' describes someone's humor or feeling. Example: I'm in a bad mood = I'm not feeling happy. 'Behavior' describes someone's comportment or the way they act. Example: Her bad behavior at the party disturbed us all.
The verbs 'to boast' and 'to brag' both express the same meaning: to vaunt or to speak arrogantly or self-indulgently about oneself. For example: He bragged about his salary all night, or she boasted about her relationship with the president. In this article, we read that people used to boast or brag about sleeping very little.
This is incorrect. Though both of these terms refer to children, they describe children of different ages. 'A toddler' describes a child between the ages of 1 and 3 ('to toddle' means to walk, so a toddler is a child who is beginning to walk). 'A newborn' is a baby who has just been born (0 to 1 month).
This is incorrect. 'Silly' describes something which is comical, ridiculous, asinine or insipid. Example: Stop making silly faces! 'Manly' describes something which is macho, masculine, or traditionally associated with men. Example: Hunting is a manly hobby.
