Assinale a alternativa que completa corretamente a lacuna do texto.

  1. A) is
  2. B) are
  3. C) am
  4. D) be
  5. E) was
Ver gabarito comentado

Resposta correta: B

O sujeito "snakes" está no plural e o texto está no presente, por isso a forma correta do verbo to be é "are". "Is" só acompanha sujeitos no singular (he, she, it) e "am" só combina com "I". "Be" é a forma base, que não pode ficar sozinha como verbo principal de uma frase afirmativa, e "was" pertence ao passado e ao singular.
