Questão

“The rain changed our plans, not our mood,” said Ms. Hill after a neighborhood theatre’s costume-donation day. Students are now preparing an English caption for the event’s online timeline. The coordinator’s notes are brief: the activity took place on a Sunday in April. At 9 a.m., Ana created signs for the donation table. After lunch, rain began, and the volunteers decided to end the activity before 2 p.m. The caption must combine the notes in one sentence, using past forms and time expressions. It also needs to make clear why the activity ended early, rather than simply list the events. Analyze the notes and identify the caption that accurately combines the events, time expressions, past forms, and cause of the early ending.

1. A) At Sunday, Ana made signs on 9 a.m., but the volunteers left early because it rained in the afternoon.
2. B) On Sunday, Ana made signs at 9 a.m., and the volunteers left early because it was sunny in the afternoon.
3. C) On Sunday, Ana maked signs at 9 a.m., but the volunteers left early because it rained in the afternoon.
4. D) On Sunday, Ana made signs in 9 a.m., so the volunteers left early before rain began in the afternoon.
5. E) On Sunday, Ana made signs at 9 a.m., but the volunteers left early because it rained in the afternoon.

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa E

Resolução passo a passo

1. Organizei as anotações em ordem cronológica: no domingo de abril, às 9 a.m., Ana fez os cartazes; depois do almoço começou a chover; por causa da chuva, os voluntários encerraram a atividade antes das 2 p.m. Passo 2: A legenda precisa combinar os fatos em uma só frase, usando formas do passado (made, left, rained) e expressões de tempo corretas (On Sunday, at 9 a.m., in the afternoon). Passo 3: A preposição correta para dia da semana é 'on' (On Sunday) e para horário exato é 'at' (at 9 a.m.). Passo 4: A conjunção 'but' liga a atividade de Ana ao encerramento antecipado, e a oração 'because it rained in the afternoon' explica a causa, como pede o enunciado. Passo 5: A alternativa E é a única que une todos esses elementos sem erros de forma. A alternativa C tem a mesma estrutura, mas escreve 'maked', forma inexistente do passado de make. A alternativa A usa 'At Sunday' e 'on 9 a.m.', preposições erradas. A alternativa B troca a chuva por sol, contrariando as anotações. A alternativa D usa 'in 9 a.m.' e diz que os voluntários saíram antes da chuva começar, o que inverte a causa. Passo 6: Concluo que o gabarito E está correto.

💡 Dica: Combine os eventos usando tempos verbais passados e conectores de causa.
