Why throw away a device that still has a story? Last Saturday, the Restart Crew held a small “repair café” in the city square. Nina arrived carrying an old record player. She explained that it was a gift from her grandfather when she moved to her first apartment, so she wanted to keep it working. The record player had stopped spinning and made a quiet clicking sound. Jordan, a volunteer at the event, took a quick look. During the week, he works as a bike mechanic, so he is used to fixing small parts. He found a worn belt and replaced it with one from the shared tools box. In about ten minutes, the record player played music again. The organizers repeated their goal: keeping small electronics out of the landfill by teaching simple fixes. Analyze the text and identify the sentence that most clearly combines the information by using relative pronouns appropriately.

1. A) Nina met Jordan, which repaired the record player that her grandfather had given her during a Restart Crew repair café.
2. B) Nina met Jordan, whose grandfather had given her the record player that he repaired during a Restart Crew repair café.
3. C) Nina met Jordan, who repaired the record player that her grandfather had given him during a Restart Crew repair café.
4. D) Nina met Jordan, who repaired the record player that her grandfather had given her during a Restart Crew repair café.
5. E) Nina met Jordan, who repaired the record player whose her grandfather had given her during a Restart Crew repair café.

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa D

Resolução passo a passo

1. Identifique as informações do texto: Nina conheceu Jordan; Jordan consertou a vitrola (record player); o avô de Nina deu a vitrola a ela; o conserto ocorreu em um repair café do Restart Crew. Passo 2: Escolha o pronome relativo pelo antecedente. Como Jordan é pessoa, usa-se 'who'. Como record player é coisa, usa-se 'that' (ou 'which'). Passo 3: Verifique a pessoa do complemento. Quem recebeu o presente foi Nina, então o objeto indireto deve ser 'her' (her grandfather had given her). Passo 4: Monte a frase combinada: 'Nina met Jordan, who repaired the record player that her grandfather had given her during a Restart Crew repair café.' Essa é a alternativa D, que é o gabarito, e eu concordo com ele. Passo 5: Por que as outras estão erradas: A usa 'which' para uma pessoa (Jordan), o que é inadequado. B usa 'whose' com o sentido de que o avô de Jordan deu a vitrola, o que contradiz o texto. C troca o objeto indireto para 'him', indicando que o avô deu o presente a Jordan, o que não é verdade. E combina 'whose' com 'her', formando um possessivo duplicado e gramaticalmente incorreto.

💡 Dica: Leia o texto atentamente e identifique a frase que usa pronomes relativos para combinar informações.
