A world away, in Hamamatsu, Japan, there are many places to buy and eat Brazilian food.

The answer to this question dates back to the early 20th century.

b.
8
In 1908, people from Japan began moving to Brazil to work on coffee plantations.
9
Many of these Japanese immigrants, called Niki, moved to Sao Paulo and settled in a neighbourhood called Liberdade.
10
Like many immigrants, they spoke their native language and prepared traditional foods from their home country.
11
Over time, the Niki opened many Japanese markets and restaurants in the Liberdade district.
12
Today, this neighbourhood has one of the largest Japanese communities outside of Japan.

Restaurants sell ramen, noodles and sushi on every corner.
14
Also, each weekend there is a large street market.
15
Street sellers sell traditional Japanese goods and foods.

The event is popular with both city residents and tourists.
17
See, in the 1980s, three generations after the first Niki settled in Brazil, a reverse migration began to take place.
18
Over 300,000 Japanese Brazilians moved to Japan, mainly to work in electronics and automobile factories.
19
Many settled in Hamamatsu, a city on the east coast of Japan.
20
Most Japanese Brazilians spoke only their native language Portuguese.
21
They also missed the foods and culture of Brazil.
22
Over time, a number of Brazilian restaurants and stores opened in Hamamatsu.
23
Today, there is still a large Brazilian population in the city.
24
All over Hamamatsu, food shops and restaurants sell traditional Brazilian foods, such as Pão de Queijo, a type of bread, and Fehoada,
25
a bean stew with beef and pork.
26
D. Today it's possible to eat excellent Japanese food in Sao Paulo and traditional Brazilian cuisine, too in Hamamatsu.
27
Whether travelling through Brazil or Japan, it's worth visiting these two cities to experience the tastes and cultures of their unique immigrant communities.
背景与上下文
在本视频中，我们探索了两个城市——巴西的圣保罗和日本的滨松。这两个城市因移民的文化交流而在饮食上形成了独特的融合。在20世纪初，许多日本移民搬到巴西，在圣保罗建立了日本社区，并开设了大量的日本餐馆。与此相对，上世纪80年代，随着日本的日本巴西人迁回日本，多家巴西餐馆与商店也在滨松应运而生。这段历史不仅展示了移民的故事，还让我们体验了两国饮食文化的交融。

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。
