Jungles: conectores de contraste (B1)

___ tropical forests cover only a small part of the planet, they contain more than half of all known species of plants and animals. Scientists still describe new insects, frogs and trees every month, and many medicines come from substances first found under those green roofs. At the same time, thousands of square kilometres disappear each year to produce wood, beef and soya. Local communities who have lived in the forest for generations are often the best guardians, because they know exactly which trees can be cut and which must stay.

Assinale a alternativa que completa corretamente a lacuna do texto.

  1. A) Although
  2. B) However
  3. C) Despite
  4. D) Because
  5. E) So that
Ver gabarito comentado

Resposta correta: A

Há contraste entre a pequena área ocupada pelas florestas e a enorme quantidade de espécies, e "although" é a conjunção que liga duas orações completas com esse sentido. "Despite" só pode ser seguido de substantivo ou gerúndio, nunca de uma oração com sujeito e verbo. "However" é advérbio conectivo e não pode unir duas orações dessa forma, e "because" indicaria causa, invertendo a lógica do período.
