Brazil is beautiful and more than just football

  

  How much do you know about Brazil? You might think of football , samba (桑巴) and the Amazon. But there is a lot more to this country: its wonderful land, history and culture.

  On September 7 , 1822 , Brazil won its independence (独立) from Portugal. So that day is Brazil’s National Day.

  It is the largest country in South America and has the second longest river in the world. It is called the Amazon. The river is 6, 440 kilometres long and runs through the world’s largest rainforest. The rainforest is home to between 800, 000 and 5 million kinds of plants and animals. But be careful when you swim because the biggest snake, the Anaconda (大水蟒), and the most terrible fish, the Piranha (水虎鱼) , live there!

  Brazilians love sports, especially football. Many great players were born in Brazil like Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Rivaldo. Football is-played everywhere. It is so popular that schools and businesses close during their important matches !

  The Brazilians also love dancing very much. The national dance is the samba. Samba is a very lively and fun dance. Every year in February or March, there is the Carnival (狂欢节) in Rio de Janeiro. This is a time for parades and partying ! People go out and dance in the streets Dancers dress up in colorful clothes and go through the streets on big cars called floats. Tens of thousands of people watch the dancing.

  If you want to be part of the carnival, then find a chance to travel to Brazil!
