Read the English sentence and its two possible Portuguese...

Read the English sentence and its two possible Portuguese translations:


Source: "She broke down in tears when she heard the news."


(1) "Ela quebrou-se em lágrimas ao ouvir a notícia."

(2) "Ela desabou em lágrimas ao ouvir a notícia."


From the perspective of translation theory, the second version is preferable because it illustrates:


A

semantic loss through omission of figurative language.


B

dynamic equivalence prioritizing naturalness and target-language idiomaticity.


C

literalism preserving formal equivalence and syntactic symmetry.


D

foreignization maintaining English collocational patterns.
