Questão

“Did Jordan say ‘fifteen cards’ or ‘fifty cards’?” Mila asks Amir. Their group is preparing a word-card challenge. Jordan read the instructions from a sheet, but he spoke quickly. Mila heard fifteen, while Amir heard fifty. Jordan is checking the table and has not noticed their doubt. To begin the challenge, the group must take the correct number of cards and divide tasks: one student draws, one explains ideas in English, and one records answers. The teacher has asked students to solve misunderstandings by talking to one another before asking her. Mila wants to speak to Jordan so that everyone can begin with the same rule and no one is blamed for the confusion. Consider the misunderstanding described. Which sentence should Mila say to clarify the instruction respectfully and keep all classmates involved?

1. A) Could you repeat only to me, because the group can use my notes later?
2. B) Could you stop explaining, because my answer is more likely correct than yours?
3. C) Could you read the number again, more slowly, so we can all follow the same rule?
4. D) Could you ask the teacher to decide, without hearing our different ideas first?
5. E) Could you choose fifteen now, so we do not need to listen to other ideas?

✅ Resposta correta: alternativa C

Resolução passo a passo

1. O enunciado descreve um mal-entendido sobre o número de cartas que Jordan falou: Mila ouviu 'fifteen' e Amir ouviu 'fifty'. Mila quer falar com Jordan de forma respeitosa, para que todos comecem com a mesma regra e ninguém seja culpado pela confusão.
2. Procuramos a frase que esclarece a instrução, respeita os colegas e mantém todos envolvidos. A alternativa C pede que Jordan leia o número novamente, mais devagar, para que todos sigam a mesma regra. Isso resolve a dúvida de forma coletiva e cooperativa.
3. A alternativa A está errada porque pede a repetição apenas para Mila, excluindo Amir e os demais colegas do esclarecimento.
4. A alternativa B está errada porque é hostil e coloca a resposta de Mila acima da de Amir, em vez de buscar consenso.
5. A alternativa D está errada porque transfere a decisão para a professora sem ouvir as ideias do grupo, indo contra o pedido de resolver o problema entre si antes de recorrer a ela.
6. A alternativa E está errada porque impõe 'fifteen' sem verificação e impede ouvir as outras ideias, o que desrespeita o grupo.
7. Conclusão: a alternativa correta é a C, que é o gabarito oficial.

💡 Dica: Pense em como expressar dúvidas respeitosamente para resolver mal-entendidos.
