Nam: Welcome back, Phuong! Brazil is amazing, isn’t it?
Phuong: It is, Nam, and it’s very diverse.
Nam: What do you mean?
Phuong: The beaches in the south are so peaceful, while cities like Rio are overcrowded.
Nam: What about the people?
Phuong: In Rio some people are wealthy, with high living standards. But there are also poor people who live in slums.
Nam: Life must be difficult in the slums.
Phuong: Yes, the slums are overcrowded, and crime is a major problem there.
Nam: Crime affects everyone in the city, doesn’t it?
Phuong: It does, Nam. But there are probably other problems in the slums too, like disease, and poor healthcare, ...
Nam: Wow, did you see that yourself?
Phuong: No, visitors don’t usually visit the slums. It’s too dangerous.
Nam: There are probably fewer things to see and to do the slums, aren’t there?
Phuong: Yes. However, I love Brazil and I had a very good time there.
Nam: Sure, it’s a real experience, isn’t it?
Phuong: It is.
