Leia a letra da música, interpretada por Amy
Winehouse, para responder às questões de números 26 a 30.
Tears dry on their own
All I can ever be to you,
Is a darkness that we knew
And this regret I got accustomed to
Once it was so right
When we were at our high,
Waiting for you in the hotel at night
I knew I hadn’t met my match
But every moment we could snatch
I don’t know why I got so attached
It’s my responsibility,
And you don’t owe nothing to me
But to walk away I have no capacity
He walks away
The sun goes down,
He takes the day but I’m grown
And in your way
In this blue shade
My tears dry on their own.
I don’t understand
Why do I stress a man,
When there’s so many bigger things at hand
We could have never had it all
We had to hit a wall
So this is inevitable withdrawal
Even if I stopped wanting you,
A perspective pushes through
I’ll be some next man’s other woman soon
[…]
I wish I could say no regrets
And no emotional debts
’Cause as we kissed goodbye the sun sets
So we are history
The shadow covers me
The sky above a blaze
That only lovers see

Gabarito comentado
Gabarito: E
Fundamento decisivo: A resolução depende da classificação morfossintática contextual exigida por “conforme utilizadas na letra da música”: deve-se verificar se cada termo da alternativa exerce função verbal no trecho efetivo, e não apenas se pode ser verbo em outros contextos. Com esse critério, a alternativa E é a única em que todos os itens aparecem como formas verbais no enunciado, ao passo que as demais trazem pelo menos um elemento de outra classe.
- Use sempre o trecho exato da frase para classificar a palavra; não decida pela classe gramatical que ela pode ter em outros contextos.
- Elimine a alternativa assim que encontrar um único item com função não verbal, porque o enunciado exige que todas sejam formas verbais.
- Verifique com atenção palavras de locuções e phrasal constructions, como away em “walk away”, porque elas podem acompanhar verbo sem serem verbo.
- Não descarte automaticamente formas em -ing ou particípios; elas podem ter valor verbal no contexto, como waiting e attached.
