Para identificar a opção que representa uma inversão com o auxiliar "may" usado para expressar um forte desejo, vamos analisar cada alternativa: A) May I go home? - Esta é uma pergunta, mas não expressa um desejo forte. B) May I help you? - Também é uma pergunta, sem a conotação de um desejo forte. C) May it eat now? - Esta frase não se encaixa no contexto de um desejo forte. D) May it be said that we agree! - Esta opção expressa um desejo ou uma esperança de que algo seja dito, o que se alinha mais com a ideia de um forte desejo. E) May I jump in? - Assim como as outras, é uma pergunta e não expressa um desejo forte. Portanto, a alternativa que melhor se encaixa na descrição de uma inversão com "may" usada para expressar um forte desejo é: D) May it be said that we agree!
