Historie
Historien om da jeg kom til Brasil
Jeg hadde sittet på flyet i femten timer.
Underveis hadde vi måtte bytte fly til et skrøpelig lite drittfly. Det hadde ristet hele veien og jeg hadde klart å søle kaffen ut over hele buksa mi, bare fordi en feit amerikaner absolutt skulle strekke seg etter potetgullet sitt akkurat da jeg hadde fått den glovarme kaffen ned på spiseplaten. Jeg brant etter å få reise meg, og da kapteinen fortalte at vi skulle lande om ti minutter føltes det som at ti tonn bare forsvant rolig av skuldrene mine.
Vi gikk av flyet. I tunnelen inn til flyplassen luktet det så stramt at det nesten ikke var til å overleve. Til tross for en grufull flyreise, var førsteinntrykket av Brasil helt fantastisk.
Gatene var fulle av tutende biler og det hang brasilianske flagg overalt. Kaka hadde nettopp scoret det avgjørende målet i VM- finalen mot Italia. Selv om jeg elsker fotball gledet jeg meg til å ligge på den varme, hvite stranda som strakte seg langs sjøen.
Jeg hadde nettopp kommet meg ut av byen, og jeg hørte nå at tutingen sakte men sikkert ble svakere og svakere, ettersom jeg kjørte lenger ut av byen. Det var da jeg så hotellet mitt ligge på et rolig og stille sted, like ved sjøen.
Det første jeg tenker på når hører ordet Brasil er lange, kritthvite strender som strekker seg langs sjøen og er fulle av store grønne palmer. Det er mange som spiller sandvolleyball og alt er helt fantastisk. Og det var akkurat sånn det var.
Etter at du har kommet deg ut av den fattige delen av byen som er bråkete og folksom, venter en herlig og avslappet liten småby full av strender og hoteller som bare ligger der å venter på deg.

English text about the Amazons
The rainforest in the Amazons
A bit more than 60% of the rainforest in the Amazons is located in Brazil, and covers an area at about 5,7 billion square kilometers, that is equivalent to about 6% of the earth’s surface. The Amazons also almost equivalents half of the earth’s rainforests, and if the wood was a country of its own, it would be the ninth biggest in the world. But it probably would not continue being that big, because 40 to 50 square kilometers of the wood are ruined every year.
About 25 % of all medicine used in the west comes from this rainforest. But also food like orange, banana, tomato, corn, potato, chocolate and coffee comes from the same area. Other artifacts like things made of leather, furniture and jewelry are made of the“gold of the wood”, tropical wood and endangered species.
Nearly half of all the species of animals and plants in the world are located here, and lots of them only exists in the Amazons. Because of all the pollution in the world, this has become one of the world’s biggest environmental problems. This is a huge problem amongst the life of animals and plants there, in addition to 20% of the world’s greatest amount of fresh running water that exists in this rainforest. Unfortunately over 50 000 animal species are exterminated every year, but luckily there are still extremely amounts of species that are yet to be found, scientists mean.
Today, more than about 1000 square meters of the rainforest disappears every ninth second and more than 150 different living spices disappears every day. Only half of the remaining rainforest still remains, and as little as 5% of the Amazon rainforest in Brazil might be untouched in 20 years. The making of roads, dams and railway tracks might be the reason that nearly 95% of the vast rainforest disappears. Not only plants and animals are extinguished, more than 90 Indian societies has disappeared since the nineteenth century (1900)
There are still a lot of different animal species in the Amazons, and now I shall tell about them.
Brazil has very many species of animals. They have a thousand species of fish, for example meat eater piraja, and they also have a hundred of mammals. In Brazil there are about eight hundred types of butterflies. You can also find over five hundred species of different birds, like parrots and toucans.
The biggest mammals are pumas, jaguars and tapirs. Jaguars are in the cat family and are in family with lions, tigers and leopards.
There are many rodents in Brazil, and some of them are (flood svin) and golden rabbits. (Flood svines) is also called Kapivar, and it’s the biggest rodent. A (Flood svine) looks like a really big guinea pig or a big beaver and they likes to swim in floods and lakes.
In Brazil you can see some really terrifying snakes that really scare you. Example anacondas and boas. Some of these snakes can be really long. Many of these snakes live in Amazonas that is a really big and famous rainforest.
The monkeys live in Amazonas. They like to climb up in the trees and eat bananas. And remember, bananas are not only for monkeys!
Many of the animals in Amazonas are in danger of dying out. That’s because they hogs many trees there and the climate is therefore changing. Something’s that the animals can’t live with.
But remember that when you are in Brazil, you should take a safari trip and look at all these famous animals, and maybe you will see a dolphin.
