Ver gabarito comentado

Resposta correta: A

A lacuna I aparece numa aposição entre vírgulas: “ARAMARK GmbH, ___ by Peter Amon, prepares nutritious meals”. A presença de by pedindo o agente denuncia voz passiva reduzida — a empresa é dirigida por alguém —, logo cabe o particípio led (equivale a “which is led by Peter Amon”). Já a lacuna II é adjetiva e vem antes do substantivo: “With its ___ international fleet platform”, em que a plataforma é aquela que lidera o mercado, portanto leading, o particípio presente com valor ativo (“líder”, “de ponta”). A confusão típica é a de C (leading – led): quem inverte o par acaba dizendo que a ARAMARK “lidera por Peter Amon” e que a plataforma “é liderada”, o que quebra as duas frases. As opções com leader (B, D, E) falham porque leader é substantivo e não pode ocupar nenhuma das duas posições sem um verbo ou artigo que o sustente.
