READ TEXT III AND ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTION:

 

Plastic Dreams

by Sarah Thompson

 

Plastic dreams, oh plastic dreams, a vision turned nightmare, Once a symbol of progress, now a burden we must bear.

 

Our landfills overflow with your synthetic remains, A haunting testament to our unsustainable chains.

 

Plastic dreams, oh plastic dreams, a promise unfulfilled, Your convenience a facade, your consequences concealed.

 

Let us wake from this slumber, this toxic desire, To create a world where nature's essence can inspire.

 

In our hands lies the power, to choose a different fate, To abandon plastic dreams and embrace a sustainable state.

 

For only through conscious choices, can we break this vicious spell, And ensure a future where our planet and poetry can dwell.

Comentário do professor

"Leave behind" é a tradução adequada para "abandon" no contexto dado porque transmite a ideia de deixar para trás ou largar algo completamente. Trata-se de um phrasal verb transitivo que exige um objeto direto: to leave behind something.

Na frase original, "To abandon plastic dreams and embrace a sustainable state."
substituir por "To leave behind plastic dreams and embrace a sustainable state." mantém o mesmo sentido: abandonar hábitos ou ideias descartáveis para adotar uma postura sustentável.

Semântica e registro coincidem: ambos indicam a ação de parar de carregar ou preservar algo, com ênfase no ato de deixar esse elemento para trás.
