Questão

During a school debate about Brazil’s climate plan, Ana defended stronger environmental policies. She argued that limits on industrial emissions and investment in public transportation could protect public health and create jobs in clean-energy industries. As evidence, she cited a survey of 1,200 residents in which 68% reported fewer respiratory problems after the city replaced part of its bus fleet with electric vehicles. Bruno questioned the proposal’s economic effects. He argued that small businesses might face higher operating costs because of new environmental requirements. As evidence, he mentioned a study of 80 local shops: 35% said they would need to reduce staff or increase prices to comply with the proposed rules. Identify the main arguments presented in the debate and provide the evidence used by each side to support its position.

1. A) Ana and Bruno agree that environmental policies protect public health and create jobs, citing the residents’ survey and the study of local shops as evidence.
2. B) Ana argues that stronger environmental policies can improve public health and create clean-energy jobs, citing fewer respiratory problems after the use of electric buses; Bruno argues that the policies may increase small businesses’ costs, citing shops that might reduce staff or raise prices.
3. C) Ana argues that environmental policies may increase small businesses’ costs, citing possible staff cuts; Bruno argues that electric buses reduce respiratory problems, citing the residents’ survey.
4. D) Ana argues that stronger environmental policies can improve public health and create clean-energy jobs, citing fewer respiratory problems after electric buses; Bruno argues only that the proposal is unnecessary.
5. E) Ana argues that environmental policies protect public health, citing the residents’ survey; Bruno argues that the policies create clean-energy jobs, citing the study of local shops.

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa B

Resolução passo a passo

1. Identifique o argumento de Ana. Ela defende políticas ambientais mais rígidas, com limites às emissões industriais e investimento em transporte público, dizendo que elas protegem a saúde pública e criam empregos em indústrias de energia limpa. Sua evidência é a pesquisa com 1.200 moradores, na qual 68% relataram menos problemas respiratórios após a troca de parte da frota de ônibus por veículos elétricos.
2. Identifique o argumento de Bruno. Ele questiona os efeitos econômicos da proposta, alegando que pequenos negócios podem ter custos operacionais mais altos por causa das novas exigências ambientais. Sua evidência é o estudo com 80 lojas locais, no qual 35% disseram que precisariam reduzir funcionários ou aumentar preços para cumprir as regras.
3. Compare com as alternativas. A alternativa B descreve corretamente os dois argumentos e as duas evidências, atribuindo a cada debatedor a posição e a evidência certas. Por isso ela é a resposta correta, e coincide com o gabarito oficial.
4. Analise as alternativas erradas. A alternativa A está errada porque Ana e Bruno não concordam: Bruno questiona a proposta. A alternativa C inverte as posições, atribuindo a Ana o argumento de Bruno e vice-versa. A alternativa D está errada porque Bruno não afirma apenas que a proposta é desnecessária; ele levanta o custo para pequenos negócios, com evidência própria. A alternativa E troca as evidências e os argumentos, pois a pesquisa de moradores sustenta a saúde pública e o estudo das lojas sustenta o custo econômico, não a criação de empregos.

💡 Dica: Analise os argumentos e busque exemplos que os sustentem.
