Playing Rio

Rio is a city of glamour and glitz – but also of poverty and violence in the favelas that climb its hills. With the Olympics coming in 2016, the slums are getting a face-lift.

[...] Rio needed the solution to an economic puzzle involving low wages, poor public transport, a weak state, and income distribution about as fair as a tin-pot kIeptocracy’s. “It happens in the whole world, but I would say here the dose was greater,” says José Mariano Beltrame, state secretary of public security.

Beltrame is a principal author of the “pacification plan”, mean to occupy the slums and push out the gangs with a force of some 12 500 pacification officersin 165 communities by 2014 for the soccer WorId Cup. Beltrame hopes to leave behind a functioning civilian state with a legal economy after the Olympics in 2016. […]

In other slums now occupied by police, life has improved. Children are playing again in the streets. Friends will come for a visit. Yet people are still suspicious. […] “People don’t want to say so, but our greatest fear is that tomorrow will be like yesterday,” he says. “What will happen when the police leave?” […]

Despite the early success of the pacification plan. Rio’s poor distrust many government efforts to reshape the city [...]

[…] doubts surround the coming Olympics spectacle. Half the new arenas and facilities will be in Barra da Tijuca, a Miami-Iike middle-class refuge full of cars and malls about 20 miles from the city center. Here the poor are less in evidence, and strangely, the charm of the cidade maraviIhosa, the “marvelous city”that invented the world’s great tropical brands – Carmen Miranda. “The Girl From Ipanema” – is also absent. The place is known as “the Rio that forgot it is Rio.” A Spanish academic named Jordi Borja, who studies mega-events and has advised Rio’s government, says, “You should use the games to improve the inner city, not the suburbs, to reduce inequalities, and to do urbanism in favor of the poor.” [...]
If you are looking for an Olympic legacy, how about a city where people live in peace? [...]

The text points out that people in Rio are afraid of
Escolha uma:
a. the violence accompanying the Olympics.
b. the new arenas and facilities.
c. confrontations between the police and drug-gangs.
d. the pacification plan.
e. the consequences of the departure of the police.

Answer 1

Resposta correta: Letra E.

Podemos chegar a essa conclusão ao analisarmos o que foi dito no texto e o que as alternativas expressam. A letra A não é a correta porque em nenhum momento se fala da violência durante as Olimpíadas, na verdade durante esses eventos, a violência não foi como os outros dias se for analisar o que realmente aconteceu.

A letra B está errada porque o povo do Rio não estão com medo das novas arenas, essa opção é bem viajada e não faz nenhum sentido. A letra C não é a correta porque, apesar de estar certa, não foi exposto exatamente isso no texto, portanto temos uma alternativa que explica melhor este medo.

A letra D está incorreta porque os moradores da cidade não estão com medo da pacificação, pelo contrário, creio que seja isso que eles querem... Viver em paz.
