Questão 53

ESPCEX 2012
Inglês

(EsPCEx - 2012)

“Hello”, said a quiet, musical voice.

I looked up, stunned that he was speaking to me. He was sitting as far away from me as the desk allowed, but his chair was angled toward me. His hair was dripping wet – he looked like someone in a commercial for hair gel. His dazzling face was friendly, open, a slight smile on his flawless lips. But his eyes were careful.

“My name is Edward Cullen,” he continued. “I didn’t have a chance to introduce myself last week. You must be Bella Swan.”

My mind was spinning with confusion. He was perfectly polite now. I had to speak; he was waiting. But I couldn’t think of anything conventional to say.

“H-how do you know my name?” I stammered.

He laughed a soft laugh.

“Oh, I think everyone knows your name. The whole town was waiting for you to arrive.”

“My mind was spinning with confusion. He was perfectly polite now. I had to speak; he was waiting. But I couldn’t think of anything conventional to say.
“H-how do you know my name?” I stammered.”

The excerpt above describes a feeling of

A

sadness.

B

deception.

C

pain.

D

nervousness.

E

anger.

Gabarito:

nervousness.



Resolução:

O trecho “My mind was spinning with confusion. He was perfectly polite now. I had to speak; he was waiting. But I couldn’t think of anything conventional to say. “H-how do you know my name?” I stammered.” pode ser traduzido como:

"Minha mente estava girando em confusão. Ele era perfeitamente educado agora. Eu tinha que falar; ele estava esperando. Mas não podia pensar em nada convencional para dizer. "C-como você sabe meu nome?" Eu gaguejei."

Por isso podemos compreender que ele expressa nervosismo, não tristeza, ou dor, ou decepção ou mesmo raiva, como as outras alternativas propõem.

Resposta correta: D
