Questão

Why does a simple question sometimes shut a conversation down? For a youth podcast called “Two Minutes, One Story”, Maia will interview a classmate and record a short audio. The podcast rule is clear: the listener should learn something about the person’s life story, but the questions must be respectful and safe. Maia’s first draft has four questions: “Do you like our city?”, “Why did your family leave?”, “What is your address?”, and “Tell me about a moment that changed your routine.” After reading it, the editor wrote a note: “You only have two minutes. Start with a general question about the person’s past, then ask about a change or experience, and finish with the present. Avoid yes/no questions and avoid private data.” Maia rewrites her plan and chooses only three questions for the interview. Analyze the editor’s note and Maia’s draft. Conclude which set of three questions best fits the podcast rules and helps Maia learn a classmate’s life story.

1. A) Ask: 'Did you move here last year?'; 'Do you like English?'; 'Is your family big?'
2. B) Ask: 'What is your full address?'; 'How much rent do you pay?'; 'Can I take a photo of your ID?'
3. C) Ask: 'Where did you live before this city?'; 'What was a big change when you arrived?'; 'What do you miss or enjoy now?'
4. D) Ask: 'Why did your parents decide to leave?'; 'Were you afraid?'; 'Do you regret coming here?'
5. E) Ask: 'What is your favorite game?'; 'Who is the best singer today?'; 'Which hashtag do you use most?'

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa C

Resolução passo a passo

1. Reveja as regras do editor: começar com uma pergunta geral sobre o passado, depois perguntar sobre uma mudança ou experiência e terminar com o presente, evitando perguntas de sim/não e dados privados.
2. Verifique a alternativa C: 'Where did you live before this city?' é uma pergunta geral sobre o passado, que não pode ser respondida apenas com sim ou não. 'What was a big change when you arrived?' pede uma mudança ou experiência, como o editor exige. 'What do you miss or enjoy now?' fecha a entrevista falando do presente. A sequência passado, mudança e presente segue exatamente a orientação do editor.
3. Verifique se as perguntas são respeitosas e seguras: nenhuma pede endereço, documento, renda ou dados pessoais sensíveis. Elas convidam a pessoa a contar sua história.
4. Analise as outras alternativas. Na A, as perguntas são de sim/não ('Did you move here last year?', 'Do you like English?', 'Is your family big?'), o que o editor proibiu e não aprofunda a história de vida. Na B, as perguntas pedem dados privados (endereço completo, aluguel e documento), violando a regra de segurança. Na D, a pergunta 'Were you afraid?' é de sim/não e 'Do you regret coming here?' também é fechada, além de tocar em temas emocionais delicados sem a sequência pedida, e a primeira pergunta 'Why did your parents decide to leave?' pode soar invasiva como abertura. Na E, as perguntas sobre jogo favorito, cantor e hashtag não tratam da história de vida da pessoa.
5. Conclusão: a alternativa C é a única que cumpre as regras do podcast, com perguntas abertas, respeitosas, seguras e na ordem passado, mudança e presente.

💡 Dica: Analise as regras do podcast e escolha perguntas que respeitem o tempo e a privacidade, focando na história de vida.
