III.Free reported speech is used in narratives to convey the thoughts or words of a character, through the narrator's voice.

The Base Nacional Comum Curricular document (BNCC) currently in force indicates 5 axes that guide the teaching-learning process of English in the final years of elementary school. Based on the axes defined by the BNCC document, read the following statements and then select the correct alternative: I.With regard to the Writing axis, the BNCC recommends text production practices that involve movements that are sometimes collective, sometimes individual, of planning-production-revision, in which decisions are made and evaluated about the ways of communicating what is desired, keeping in mind aspects such as the objective of the text, the support that will allow it social circulation and its possible readers. II.In the Orality axis, the BNCC prioritizes the use of media resources that bring a more standardized variant of the English language, with the aim of avoiding harm to the student's comprehension and learning, preferring, even, oral use practices without face-to-face contact. III.The Intercultural Dimension axis points, among other things, to the importance of problematizing the different roles of the English language itself in the world, its values, its reach, and its effects on relations between different people and peoples, both in contemporary society and from a historical perspective. IV.The Reading axis, in turn, includes, among its guidelines, working with verbal and hybrid genres, mainly enhanced by digital media, as this work makes it possible to experience, in a meaningful and situated way, different modes of reading and different reading goals. V.The Linguistic Knowledge axis prioritizes the study of the correct form of the English Language as indicated in grammars, which is the appropriate norm established by language scholars, who are the most specialized professionals to indicate how one should speak. Furthermore, this axis recommends studying the language in isolation, to avoid comparisons with the Portuguese Language, for example.
