TEXT II
Count on Me – Bruno Mars
If you ever find yourself stuck¹ in the middle of the sea,
I’ll sail the world to find you
If you ever find yourself lost in the dark and you can’t see,
I’ll be the light to guide you
5 Find out² what we’re made of
When we are called to help our friends in need
You can count on me like one, two, three
I’ll be there
And I know when I need it I can count on you like
10 Four, three, two
And you’ll be there
Cause that’s what friends are supposed to do
Oh yeah

Resolução comentada
Frase coerente com a ideia da música: ajudar o amigo que precisa.
A canção afirma que o eu-lírico faria de tudo para encontrar e ajudar o amigo perdido. A alternativa C ('If my friend had been lost, I would have looked for him/her') mantém essa ideia, na terceira condicional.
Análise das alternativas
A) Diz que não tentaria encontrar o amigo, o que contraria o texto. B) Diz que seria fácil encontrá-lo, o que não é a ideia do autor. D) 'Even if it were easy... I wouldn't look' também contraria o compromisso de ajudar.
