📖 课文原文 · The Perfect Beach

Paragraph A
Stanley Stewart heads to Brazil, where he discovers some of the world's most beautiful sandy escapes. I'm standing on Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Beach, one of Brazil's and the world's most famous stretches of sand. 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. In this vibrant multicultural country, the beach is not just a place, it's a state of mind, a way of thinking and living. Rio alone, I'm told, has over 70 beaches, each with its own community. Some of our body builders, others are for senior citizens, still others are popular with parents and
Paragraph B
children. But Rio's beaches are just the starting point for my exploration of Brazil's Atlantic coastline, which, at more than 8,000 kilometers and with more than 2,000 beaches, is the longest in the world. Every Brazilian has his or her own ideas of the perfect beach and is eager to tell you where to find it. I'm happy to take people's advice, but my ultimate goal is to find my own dream beach. I head to a place set to have some of Brazil's best coastline, the state of Baya in the Salvador de Baya in 1549. Over the centuries, people of many races have arrived and
Paragraph C
intermarried here, creating a distinctive cultural mix. This mix influences Baya's language, religion, cuisine, music and dance. I've been told that one of Baya's best beaches, prina, lies just south of Salvador near the town of Ita Care, on arriving at prinas beach, I discover its golden sand lined by a row of perfect palm trees, moving softly in the ocean breeze. Under the moon, silver waves roll onto the sand. As I enter the water, I have the feeling of swimming through moonlight. Prinas beauty is magnificent. It's perfect curves and graceful lines are like something you might see in a postcard. But for me, it's a little too perfect.
Paragraph D
The beach I'm searching for needs to be a little wilder. I continue my search, heading north to one of Brazil's legendary beaches, Jericho Acuada. 20 years ago, only a handful of people were living in Jericho, as it's nicknamed. Today, it's an international destination, considered one of the best beach hangouts in the world, especially if you like windsurfing.
Paragraph E
It attracts visitors from Tokyo to Toronto and has grown from a small village into a lively town. Despite the changes, Jericho hasn't been spoiled by tourists, mostly because of its isolated location. It's at least five hours from any airport. Everyone in Jericho rents a beach buggy which comes with a driver. I tell my driver to take me as far along the coast as he can. We drive for three hours, finally arriving at Masayo, a fisherman's beach. Boats lie on their sides while nets hang out to dry on lines between fishermen's houses. We eat on the beach and later rest in hammocks near the table. It's a great day on an amazing beach. How can it possibly
Paragraph F
get any better, I wonder. But I have one final place to visit. Of the many beach destinations in this country, there is one that or Brazilians hold in high regard. The islands of Fernando de Naurania. More than a dozen beautiful beaches ring the island of Fernando alone, three of which rank among the top ten in Brazil. The islands of Fernando de Naurania lie a few hundred kilometers out in the Atlantic. For years, people were prohibited from visiting these islands because they were used as a prison and later by the army. Today, the islands are a national park and UNESCO World Heritage Site, which with bird and sea life. I visit a number of beaches on
Paragraph G
Fernando, but I leave the best one for last. The beach at Prada Leo is the perfect balance of sand, sea and sky. The water is pale blue and warm, alive with colorful fish, turtles and other marine life. The sand is the color of honey. And in the rock formations and strong winds that occasionally come in from Atlantic, there is that hint of wildness I was seeking. Finally, I found the beach of my dreams. I dig my toes in the sand deeply and imagine I can hold on to this place forever.
