里约之旅 作者：凯瑟琳·福利特 绘者：潘妮·韦伯 核心问题 故事里朱莉娅的态度发生了怎样的变化？

Julia and her family traveled from New York to visit Rio de Janeiro in Brazil. Julia's cousin, Gabriela, lived there. They all went to the opening night of the Olympics.

朱莉娅和家人从纽约出发，去巴西里约热内卢游玩。 朱莉娅的表姐加芙列拉就住在那儿。 他们一家人都去看了奥运会的开幕式。

The stadium was very crowded. It made Julia nervous. Everyone screamed and cheered. Their seats were far away. Julia could barely see. The music was loud. It made her head hurt. Julia had been happy to visit Rio. Now she just wanted to go home.

体育场里挤得满满当当的， 朱莉娅有点紧张。 所有人都在尖叫欢呼。 他们的座位离得很远， 朱莉娅几乎什么都看不见。 音乐声音特别大， 吵得她头疼。 本来朱莉娅来里约玩特别开心， 现在她只想赶紧回家。

Gabriella woke Julia up the next morning. There's another Olympic event today, she said. Julia did not want to go, but she smiled and got ready.

第二天一早，加芙列拉就叫醒了朱莉娅。 她说：“今天还有一场奥运会比赛哦。” 朱莉娅不想去， 但还是笑着做好了出发准备。

The families walked through shady streets. Gabriella Street ended at a beach. Julia stopped and stared. Tall buildings stood along the beach.

两家人走在树荫浓浓的街道上。 加芙列拉街的尽头就是一片海滩。 朱莉娅停下脚步，看呆了。 海滩边矗立着好多高楼。

Olympic racing boats floated on the water. There was a big mountain behind them. That's Sugarloaf Mountain, Gabriela said. It was beautiful.

奥运赛艇漂浮在水面上。 赛艇后面有一座高高的山。 加芙列拉说：“那是面包山哦。” 它真好看。
