The book introduces readers to space exploration, including the history of rockets and astronauts. His friend, Emily, whose curiosity about planets matches his own, encouraged him to read further.

Resolução passo a passo

1. Identifique os papéis de cada frase. Na frase 1, 'a book' é o objeto de 'borrowed' (Tommy borrowed a book). Na frase 2, 'The book' é o sujeito de 'introduces'. Assim, o pronome relativo deve ser o objeto de 'borrowed' e, ao mesmo tempo, retomar 'book'. Passo 2: Ao juntar as frases, a oração relativa que se encaixa após 'The book' deve ter o pronome como objeto de 'borrowed', e a oração principal deve ser 'The book ... introduces readers to space exploration'. Passo 3: A alternativa E faz exatamente isso: 'The book that Tommy borrowed last week introduces readers to space exploration.' O pronome 'that' retoma 'book' como objeto de 'borrowed', e a frase tem um sujeito e um verbo principal completos. Passo 4: Por que as outras estão erradas. A: o 'that' ficou solto no final, sem função gramatical, e a frase fica sem sentido. B: 'which' ocupa o lugar de sujeito do verbo 'introduces', e a frase não preserva o objeto de 'borrowed', ficando confusa. C: 'who' é usado para pessoas, e aqui o antecedente é um objeto (book). D: 'which' é um pronome adequado para retomar 'book', mas a estrutura deixa 'The book Tommy borrowed last week' sem verbo principal, formando uma frase fragmentada; o correto seria usar 'that' como objeto de 'borrowed'. Passo 5: Conclusão: o gabarito E está correto, pois é a única alternativa que une as frases com um pronome relativo na posição gramatical adequada e mantém uma oração principal completa.

💡 Dica: Identifique o pronome relativo correto que conecta as ideias nas frases.
