Questão

“I can read the definitions, but I still mix up borrow and lend,” Leo says while using a public-library app. In a short story on the app, Ava lends a comic to Leo on Monday. Leo borrows it for two days and returns it on Wednesday. By tapping each verb, Leo can hear its pronunciation, save it in a personal word deck, and write a new example. The app also shows related forms, such as lends and lending. Leo will help at a book swap, where he may give a book to someone, take a book home for a time, or bring it back later. He wants to use the verbs correctly, not only recognize their translations. Analyze the story, the app tools, and Leo’s task at the book swap. Identify the plan that best helps him use the three verbs accurately.

1. A) Create cards that copy the story exactly, without writing examples about new book-swap situations.
2. B) Create cards that note who gives, who takes, and what happens later, adding a new sentence for each verb.
3. C) Create cards that translate the three verbs as get, using the same meaning for every action in the story.
4. D) Create cards that save only the audio, ignoring the people and actions described in the short story.
5. E) Create cards that keep only lends and lending, leaving out the base forms used in the book swap.

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa B

Resolução passo a passo

1. Na história, Ava lends (empresta) o gibi a Leo na segunda-feira. Leo borrows (pega emprestado) o gibi por dois dias e devolve na quarta. Lend é quem dá, borrow é quem pega, e return ou bring back é devolver. Passo 2: A alternativa B é a melhor porque cria cartões que registram quem dá, quem pega e o que acontece depois. Isso fixa a direção da ação, que é o ponto em que Leo se confunde. Passo 3: Acrescentar uma frase nova para cada verbo treina o uso em contextos do book swap, e não só o reconhecimento da tradução. Exemplos: 'I will lend you my novel next week' (quem dá), 'Can I borrow your dictionary for a few days?' (quem pega) e 'Please bring it back on Friday' (devolução). Passo 4: A alternativa A é errada porque copiar a história sem criar novos exemplos não prepara Leo para situações novas do book swap. A alternativa C é errada porque get não corresponde a lend e borrow, que têm sentidos opostos. A alternativa D é errada porque ignorar quem faz cada ação elimina justamente a informação que diferencia os verbos. A alternativa E é errada porque lends e lending são formas derivadas, e deixar de fora as formas base (lend, borrow, return) impede Leo de usar os verbos nas suas frases.

💡 Dica: Analise o contexto e as ações para diferenciar borrow, lend e give.
