Body on Copacabana – level 1


The Copacabana Beach is in Rio de Janeiro. The Olympics start there on the 5th of August. This is the first time that the Olympics are in South America.
However, there are some problems. Crime is rising. The Brazilian economy is not good. And now, body parts wash up on the Copacabana Beach. Athletes are going to play on the beach only metres from the body parts.
We do not know any details about the body. People think that the parts are from a right leg and foot.

  • Difficult words: rise (get bigger and bigger), wash up (something which is washed up, is carried by the water to the beach).

Body on Copacabana – level 2


Parts of a mutilated body washed up on the sands of Copacabana Beach. They were just metres from the place where beach volleyball athletes will compete in the Rio Olympics. The Olympics start on the 5th of August.
The Olympics are happening in South America for the first time ever, but there are some problems. The crime in Rio is rising and the economy is not good. The incident on the beach is yet another stressful situation.
People do not know the details behind the mutilated body yet, but people think that it is part of a right leg and foot.

  • Difficult words: mutilated (cut, damaged).

Body on Copacabana – level 3


Parts of a mutilated body have been washed up on the sands of Copacabana Beach just metres from where beach volleyball athletes will compete in the upcoming Rio Olympics.
The discovery is the latest incident to unnerve the city as it grapples with rising crime and an economic recession, which is throwing shade on what should be a celebration of the Olympics being held for the first time ever in South America. The details behind the mutilated body are not yet known, but it's thought that it's part of a right leg and foot which lies beneath the makeshift cover.
Concealed by a tarpaulin and corded off with sticks stuck in the sand, the body parts lay at the scene after the discovery was made.
This beach vendor and witness says, “I was here on Copacabana Beach. A woman and a young guy passed by walking, they said up there in front towards Lemme Beach. There was part of a leg, just some remains of the belly, and I just didn't believe it, so I went there to see it with my own eyes. I got up closer to there and it was real.”
The Olympics, which start on the 5th of August, come at a time of political uncertainty and economic instability in Brazil, which makes incidents like this all the more unsettling.

  • Difficult words: mutilated (cut, damaged), unnerve (upset), grapple (fight), shade (bad news), makeshift (temporary, improvised), concealed (hidden), tarpaulin (a heavy-duty waterproof cloth), corded off (fenced off), unsettling (disturbing, making you feel nervous, bad).
