Questão

At a fire station, a team is preparing a short profile for its website. The notes say: “Maya leads the rescue team. Maya trained in mountain search. The thermal camera detects people through smoke. The camera was donated last year.” Qual opção combina corretamente as informações sobre Maya e a câmera, usando pronomes relativos adequados em inglês?

1. A) Maya, which trained in mountain search, leads the rescue team, and the thermal camera, who was donated last year, detects people through smoke
2. B) Maya leads the rescue team, which trained in mountain search, and the thermal camera, who was donated last year, detects people through smoke
3. C) Maya, who trained in mountain search, leads the rescue team, and the thermal camera, that donated last year, detects people through smoke
4. D) Maya, who trained in mountain search, leads the rescue team, and the thermal camera, which was donated last year, detects people through smoke
5. E) Maya, that trained in mountain search, leads the rescue team, and the thermal camera, who was donated last year, detects people through smoke

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa D

Resolução passo a passo

1. Identifique as quatro informações do texto: (a) Maya lidera a equipe de resgate; (b) Maya treinou em buscas em montanha; (c) a câmera térmica detecta pessoas através da fumaça; (d) a câmera foi doada no ano passado.
2. Combine as frases usando pronomes relativos. Para pessoas, usa-se 'who' (ou 'that' em contextos restritivos, mas 'who' é o mais adequado com pessoas em inglês formal). Para coisas e animais, usa-se 'which' (ou 'that'). Assim, para Maya (pessoa) o pronome correto é 'who', e para a câmera (coisa) o pronome correto é 'which'.
3. Monte a frase: 'Maya, who trained in mountain search, leads the rescue team, and the thermal camera, which was donated last year, detects people through smoke.' Essa é a alternativa D, que usa 'who' para pessoa e 'which' para objeto, com as vírgulas corretas nas orações relativas explicativas.
4. Por que as outras estão erradas: A usa 'which' para Maya (pessoa) e 'who' para a câmera (coisa), invertendo os pronomes. B coloca a informação sobre o treinamento como relativa a 'the rescue team', o que altera o sentido, e usa 'who' para a câmera. C usa 'that donated', o que é gramaticalmente incorreto pois 'donated' não tem sujeito adequado e a construção 'that donated last year' não se sustenta. E usa 'that' para pessoa e 'who' para a câmera, o que inverte a regra.
5. Conclusão: a alternativa D é a única que atribui corretamente 'who' a pessoa e 'which' a coisa, mantendo o sentido original do texto.

💡 Dica: Verifique se o pronome relativo corresponde a pessoa (who) ou coisa (which/that) e se há vírgulas antes de orações explicativas.
