TEXT 2 - Questions 46 through 50<br />

Concerning Brazil’s natural beauty, foreigners and Brazilians<br />

have agreed on many aspects. Rio de Janeiro is marvelous for<br />

everyone, and the Amazon may be more foreign to us, that it is to<br />

them. However, we love it just the same. Pantanal has not been<br />

visited so often, but we think the world of it. And what about Foz<br />

do Iguaçu? (Iguaçu Falls). For a great many people it is<br />

synonymous with shopping in Paraguay, which does not mean a<br />

good option to me. Let’s take the falls themselves. All in all, they<br />

stand for a set of waterfalls, with the largest average annual flow<br />

on Earth – a strong candidate for one of the New Seven Wonders of<br />

the World. For foreigners who come to Brazil for leisure, it’s the<br />

second destination, just after Rio de Janeiro, according to<br />

Embratur, the Brazilian Tourist Office. Last year the Iguaçu<br />

National Park, composed of 460 acres of inland Atlantic forest, was<br />

visited by people from 152 different countries, totalizing 619.9<br />

thousand visitors. Lucy Verhaeger and Marc Deborne, a French<br />

couple, have recently crossed the footbridge which leads to Devil’s<br />

Throat. They became dazzled before it. When they told their French<br />

friends that they would come to our country soon, all of them<br />

asked the same question: “To Iguaçu, right?” Lucy got so<br />

embarrassed that she was not brave enough to say that she had<br />

not been to Niagara Falls previously. Still, she did not manage to<br />

tell them that it would be her first trip to Iguaçu.<br />

As to the American twins, Caroline and Norine Matthews,<br />

who don’t live far from Niagara Falls (once they live right in New<br />

York City), Lucy learned from them that “Iguaçu is much better<br />

than Niagara Falls. Bigger, and much less touristy”. The point is<br />

that Caroline had had a high-school assignment about one place in<br />

the world to visit, and she chose Iguaçu.<br />

Legend has said that when the first lady Eleanor Roosevelt<br />

saw the falls, for the first time ever, she had exclaimed: “Poor<br />

Niagara!”.<br />

46) FMC – 2010/2º<br />

The general view of the text leads us to believe that everything<br />

below can be stated about Iguaçu Falls, EXCEPT that<br />

a) it isn’t the first destination to those who come to Brazil from<br />

abroad.<br />

b) shopping in Paraguayan malls is worthless to the writer.<br />

c) there’s nothing in our country to be compared to Pantanal’s<br />

natural beauty.<br />

d) visitors from 152 different countries came to Iguaçu National<br />

Park last year.<br />

47) FMC – 2010/2º<br />

Lucy got embarrassed to tell her friends that she hadn’t been to<br />

Niagara Falls before, since
