   The landscape where the São Francisco River enters the Atlantic Ocean seems so out of place it makes one wonder if this is still coastal Brazil. White sand dunes stretch as far as the eye can see; clusters of cashew trees throw flickering shadows like ocean waves on the sand.

   Here among these shifting dunes formerly enslaved men and women founded the Pixaim Quilombo near the mouth of the river. They developed a reliable sustainable lifestyle and community well attuned to the dynamic, always changing estuary.

   But it is a lifestyle utterly dependent on the São Francisco River; reliant on the planting of rice in marshes downstream and on catching plentiful freshwater fish upstream.

Now, varied and growing water demands by upstream dams and other users are threatening the long-established quilombo lifestyle — demands that experts predict will worsen severely in Brazil’s Northeast.

   “We used to catch fish that were meters long, but now you have to go much farther up the river to find them,” remembers 84-year-old Aladim, who lives in Pixaim. “The fish left, so the people left,” he remarks.

Comentários

• O texto informa que:

  "Now, varied and growing water demands by upstream dams and other users are threatening the long-established quilombo lifestyle". Ou seja, há uma crescente demanda por água nas regiões mais afastadas do oceano, que ameaça o estilo de vida do quilombo. A comunidade depende do rio em sua extensão, que vai além da área mais próxima da costa do oceano.

  Gabarito: Errado.

• In the third paragraph, the author informs that the community dependence on the São Francisco River is limited to a specific area of the river, near to the ocean.

  Gab. ERRADO

  Olhem o que diz o terceiro parágrafo -

  But it is a lifestyle utterly dependent on the São Francisco River; reliant on the planting of rice in marshes downstream and on catching plentiful freshwater fish upstream.

  1. "o estilo de vida é totalmente dependente do rio são francisco" como um todo(não somente da área do oceano)
  2. Eles pegam peixe "upstream", rio acima!

  Logo, a comunidade não está limitada a uma área próxima ao oceano
