The sanctity of our most intimate experiences is also diminished. My grandfather Charles Shaw — a notable musician whose wisdoms and jazz scene tales I often shared on Twitter — passed away last year. Rather than take adequate time to privately mourn the loss of his giant influence in my life alongside those who loved him most, I quickly posted a lengthy tribute to him to my followers. At the time I thought, “How will they remember him if I don’t acknowledge his passing?” Perhaps at the root of this anxiety over being forgotten is an urgent question of how one ought to form a legacy; with the rise of automation, a widening wealth gap and an unstable political climate, it is easy to feel unimportant. It is almost as if the world is too big and we are much too small to excel in it in any meaningful way. We feel we need as many people as possible to witness our lives, so as not to be left out of a story that is being written too fast by people much more significant than ourselves. “The secret of a full life is to live and relate to others as if they might not be there tomorrow, as if you might not be there tomorrow,” the writer Anais Nin said. “This feeling has become a rarity, and rarer every day now that we have reached a hastier and more superficial rhythm, now that we believe we are in touch with a greater amount of people. This is the illusion which might cheat us of being in touch deeply with the one breathing next to us.” I think of those words and at once any fear of obscurity is eclipsed by much deeper ones — the fear of forgoing the sacred moments of life, of never learning to be completely alone, of not bearing witness to the incredible lives of those who surround me. I observe the world around me. It is big and moving fast. “What’s happening?” I think to myself. I’m just beginning to find out. From:www.nytimes.com/Oct. 1, 2019 The author states that for millennials, social media has become so much part of their lives that somehow it comes to be (UECE 2020)

1. A) more relevant than any real interaction.
2. B) an obsession, an addiction.
3. C) identified with life itself.
4. D) an insurmountable problem in their daily routine.

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa C

Resolução passo a passo

1. Identifique o trecho-chave do texto. A frase a ser completada pede o que, para os millennials, as redes sociais se tornaram a ponto de passarem a ser percebidas como parte da vida. O autor fala de sentir a necessidade de ser testemunhado por muitas pessoas e de compartilhar a própria vida online, o que mostra que a rede se confunde com a própria existência.
2. Compare com a alternativa correta. A opção C, 'identified with life itself' (identificada com a própria vida), resume essa ideia: a mídia social deixou de ser algo separado da vida e passou a ser vista como a própria vida. Esta é a alternativa que o gabarito indica como correta.
3. Analise as alternativas erradas. A alternativa A é incorreta porque o texto critica justamente a ideia de que o contato superficial online vale mais que a interação real, quando diz que a ilusão de estar em contato com muitas pessoas pode nos afastar do contato profundo com quem está ao nosso lado. A alternativa B é incorreta porque o texto não usa a ideia de vício ou obsessão para descrever os millennials; a questão fala em ser parte da vida, não em dependência. A alternativa D é incorreta porque o autor não apresenta as redes sociais como um problema insuperável na rotina, e sim como algo que se incorporou à vida e cria uma ansiedade específica.
4. Conclusão. A resposta correta é a C, pois a ideia central do trecho é que as redes sociais passaram a fazer parte tão profunda da existência que se confundem com a própria vida.

💡 Dica: Leia atentamente o texto e identifique a ideia central sobre o uso das redes sociais.
