Text 1
01 There, in the pasture greenery,
Sun mottling Nature’s breast,
It was the summer wind’s song
That filled me with its crest.
05 Emotion running rampant–
Rivers to the sea–
I could not even fathom the flood of you and me.
But take me in your arms again
And do not talk of time.
10 Let flesh rub flesh to parchment–
Pale flowers crushed–
And grind more mortar for my soul’s room . . .
Paint mirrors for my mind.

According to Text 1, answer the questions below:
Analyze the best answer to complete the following sentence, giving it the same meaning as in the text.
“Emotion running __________
Rivers to the sea
I could not even ___________ the __________ of you and me.”
Mark the right alternative.
- A)controlled, imagine, flight
- B)suddenly, exchange, love
- C)apart, bring, feelings
- D)with no control, understand, blow
- E)fast, know, sensation
Resposta:
A alternativa correta é D)
Analisando o texto original, observamos no verso 05 a expressão "Emotion running rampant" (emoção correndo descontroladamente) e no verso 07 "I could not even fathom the flood of you and me" (eu não poderia nem mesmo compreender a inundação de você e eu).
A alternativa D corresponde perfeitamente ao significado do texto:
- "running with no control" equivale a "running rampant" (correndo descontroladamente)
- "understand" equivale a "fathom" (compreender)
- "blow" pode ser interpretado como uma tradução poética de "flood" (inundação/transbordamento)
As outras alternativas não mantêm a fidelidade semântica com o texto original, alterando substantivamente o significado dos versos.
