Unit 1 Brazil’s Deadly Sport
Reading Comprehension
The young people Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, sometimes play a deadly
sport. They call it train surfing. In train surfing, young people stand on
the tops of moving trains. (A) It is very dangerous. Train surfers or
surfistas, can fall off the train. (B) They can also hit the trains'
electrical wires. (C) Many surfistas die each year doing their deadly
sport. (D)
Surfistas know that their sport is dangerous. However, the
surfistas often come from very poor parts of the city, and they don‟t
see much hope in their lives. The police and the train companies
try to stop the surfistas, but it is very difficult. Brazil is not a rich
country and does not have enough police to guard the trains.
Instead, Brazil tries to teach its young people about the dangers of
trains surfing. Sadly, the surfistas probably won‟t stop until their
lives get better.
