Track 10, Reading 5B, The Perfect Beach.
2
In pursuit of the perfect beach, travel writer Stanley Stewart heads to Brazil, where he discovers some of the world's most beautiful sandy escapes.
3
I'm standing on Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Beach, one of Brazil's and the world's most famous stretches of sand.
4
As I watch life go by here in all its varied forms, I've come to realize that any understanding of Brazil really begins on its beaches.
5
In this vibrant, multicultural country, the beach is not just a place, it's a state of mind, a way of thinking and living.
6
Rio alone, I'm told, has over 70 beaches, each with its own community.
7
Some are for bodybuilders, others are for senior citizens.
8
Still others are popular with parents and children.
9
But Rio's beaches are just the starting point for my exploration of Brazil's Atlantic coastline,
10
which, at more than 8 ,000 kilometers and with more than 2 ,000 beaches, is the longest in the world.
11
Every Brazilian has his or her own ideas of the perfect beach and is eager to tell you where to find it.
12
I'm happy to take people's advice, but my ultimate goal is to find my own dream beach.
13
I head to a place said to have some of Brazil's best coastline, the state of Bahia in the northeast.
14
Portuguese settlers established themselves at Bahia's present -day capital, Salvador de Bahia, in 1549.
15
Over the centuries, people of many races have arrived and intermarried here.
16
creating a distinctive cultural mix.
17
This mix influences Bahia's language, religion, cuisine, music and dance.
18
I've been told that one of Bahia's best beaches, Praina, lies just south of Salvador, near the town of Itacare.
19
On arriving at Praina's beach, I discover its golden sand lined by a row of perfect palm trees moving softly in the ocean breeze.
20
Under the moon, silver waves roll onto the sand.
21
As I enter the water, I have the feeling of swimming through moonlight.
22
Priner's beauty is magnificent.
23
Its perfect curves and graceful lines are like something you might see in a postcard.
24
But for me, it's a little too perfect.
25
The beach I'm searching for needs to be a little wilder.
26
I continue my search heading north to one of Brazil's legendary beaches, Jericoacoara.
27
Twenty years ago, only a handful of people were living in Jeri, as it's nicknamed.
28
Today, it's an international destination, considered one of the best beach hangouts in the world, especially if you like windsurfing.
29
It attracts visitors from Tokyo to Toronto and has grown from a small village into a lively little town.
30
Despite the changes, Jerry hasn't been spoiled by tourists, mostly because of its isolated location.
31
It's at least five hours from any airport.
32
Everyone in Jerry rents a beach buggy, which comes with a driver.
33
I tell my driver to take me as far along the coast as he can.
34
We drive for three hours, finally arriving at Maseo, a fisherman's beach.
35
Boats lie on their sides while nets hang out to dry on lines between fishermen's houses.
36
We eat on the beach and later rest in hammocks near the table.
37
It's a great day on an amazing beach.
38
How can it possibly get any better, I wonder?
39
But I have one final place to visit.
40
Of the many beach destinations in this country, there is one that all Brazilians hold in high regard.
41
The islands of Fernando de Noronha.
42
More than a dozen beautiful beaches ring the island of Fernando alone, three of which rank among the top ten in Brazil.
43
The islands of Fernando de Noronha lie a few hundred kilometers out in the Atlantic.
44
For years, people were prohibited from visiting these islands because they were used as a prison and later by the army.
45
Today, the islands are a national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site rich with bird and sea life.
46
I visit a number of beaches on Fernando, but I leave the best one for last.
47
The beach at Praia de Leo is the perfect balance of sand, sea, and sky.
48
The water is pale blue and warm, alive with colourful fish, turtles, and other marine life.
49
The sand is the colour of honey, and in the rock formations and strong winds that occasionally come in from the Atlantic,
50
there is that hint of wildness I was seeking.
51
Finally, I found the beach of my dreams.
52
I dig my toes in the sand deeply and imagine I can hold on to this place forever.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
