Answered by Gustavo Lacerda

Gustavo Lacerda的回復：

Brazil（巴西）

1.We don't walk around without clothes and we don't have monkeys as pets.

我們不會不穿衣服四處閑逛，也不會養(yǎng)猴子當寵物。

2.The capital of Brazil is Brasília, not Rio de Janeiro or S?o Paulo (neither Buenos Aires, which is the capital of Argentina).

巴西的首都是巴西利亞，不是里約熱內盧或圣保羅。也不是布宜諾斯艾利斯，那是阿根廷的首都。

3.Our official language is Portuguese, not Spanish.

我們的官方語言是葡萄牙語，不是西班牙語。

4.Carnival is a traditional holiday in our country. Most foreigners imagine Brazilian carnival like this:

狂歡節(jié)是我國的傳統節(jié)日。大部分外國人想象中的巴西狂歡節(jié)是這樣的：

This actually happens, but it's a particular parade that occurs only in S?o Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. The vast majority of Brazilians spend their Carnival in street parties like this:

確實會有，但這是只在圣保羅和里約熱內盧才特有的一種游行。絕大部分巴西人是這樣在街頭派對慶?？駳g節(jié)的：

5.Brazil is the 6th biggest economy in the world.

巴西是世界第六大經濟體。

6.Only 6% of our population live in the "favelas" (slums). On the other hand, this is equivalent to 12 million people - half of the Australia population.

只有6%的巴西人住在貧民窟。但這就是1200萬人，相當于澳大利亞人口的一半。

7.Brazil is the largest coffee producer in the world. 1/3 of the coffee consumed worldwide is produced here.

巴西是世界最大的咖啡產地。全球消耗的咖啡有三分之一產自這里。

8.Brazil is a tropical country, but since it has a very long extension, it doesn't mean you will always feel hot, in every place. If you come to S?o Paulo in July, for example, expect constant temperatures of around 5 degrees Celsius.

巴西是熱帶國家，但是由于國土面積大，并不是在哪兒都會覺得很熱。比如說，如果你7月份來圣保羅，氣溫估計會恒定在5℃左右。

9.The Brazilian coast has 7,367 km, with beautiful landscapes from South:

巴西海岸線長7367 km，風光旖旎。從南：

to North:

到北：

10.Brazil is the only nation that has participated of all soccer World Cup editions. And we're the only country to win it 5 times. So yes, we are the country of the soccer.

巴西是唯一一個每屆世界杯都參賽了的國家，也是唯一一個五次奪冠的國家。沒錯，我們就是足球之國。

11.Consumer goods in general are really expensive in Brazil. A new Jeep Grand Cherokee, for example, costs the equivalent of $89.000,00 here, against $28.000,00 in the US. The PS4, announced for $399,00 in the US, arrived here for the equivalent of $1735.

巴西生活消費品的價格總體而言非常高。比如一輛新的大切諾基（一款越野吉普車），在巴西的要價折合成美元相當于8.9萬刀，而在美國只要2.8萬刀。在美國只要399刀的PS4，到這兒折合成美元相當于1735刀。

12.S?o Paulo, the biggest Brazilian city, is the city with the largest fleet of helicopters in the world. It has 411 registered helicopters, while NYC has 120.

巴西最大的城市圣保羅擁有世界上最大的直升機艦隊，包括411架注冊直升機，而紐約只有120架。

13.Brazilians don't throw away the toilet paper in the own toilet, but in trash bins. We're taught that toilets can clog with paper.

巴西人不會把廁紙扔到馬桶里，而是扔進垃圾簍。我們受到的教導是廁紙會堵塞馬桶。

14.Brazilians take at least 2 baths in a day, and think that less than that is unhygienic.

巴西人每天至少洗兩次澡，少于兩次的話會覺得不衛(wèi)生。

15.Yes, we really know how to party!

對，我們最會開派對了！
