Frida: a beleza singular da pintora (ENEM 2017)

One of the things that made an incredible impression on me in the film was Frida’s comfort in and celebration of her own unique beauty. She didn’t try to fit into conventional ideas or images about womanhood or what makes someone or something beautiful. Instead, she fully inhabited her own unique gifts, not particularly caring what other people thought. She was magnetic and beautiful in her own right. She painted for years, not to be a commercial success or to be discovered, but to express her own inner pain, joy, family, love and culture. She absolutely and resolutely was who she was. The trueness of her own unique vision and her ability to stand firmly in her own truth was what made her successful in the end.

  3. C) ter grande poder de sedução.

Ver gabarito comentado

Resposta correta: D

O que mais impressiona a autora é "Frida's comfort in and celebration of her own unique beauty": a pintora não tentava se encaixar em ideias convencionais sobre feminilidade e beleza e "was magnetic and beautiful in her own right" — ou seja, assumia sua beleza singular (D). O distrator E distorce o texto: Frida pintava "to express her own inner pain, joy, family, love and culture", para se expressar, e não para se recriar; além disso, a pintura não é o foco do espanto da autora, e o texto nega a busca por sucesso comercial ou sedução (B e C).
