Ol\u00e1, pessoal!<\/p>\n

Let’s wrap February up with a pronunciation exercise. First you are going to listen to the following text read at a regular speed, then at a slower speed.<\/p>\n

Here’s what you have to do:<\/p>\n

1. Listen to the text in normal speed three times. Don’t repeat. Only listen carefully.
\n2. Listen to the next in slower speed and repeat each sentence very carefully.
\n3. Only move on the next sentence when you have the previous one perfect!<\/p>\n

Regular speed<\/p>\n

Slower speed<\/p>\nhttps:\/\/blogs.transparent.com\/portuguese\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2014\/02\/cosmos-02.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n

Existem dez vezes mais estrelas no universo vis\u00edvel do que todos os gr\u00e3os de areia nas praias e desertos da Terra.<\/em><\/p>\n

Por causa das fortes luzes das cidades modernas, quando olhamos para o c\u00e9u n\u00e3o vemos mais que cem estrelas.<\/em><\/p>\n

Mas, quando estamos nas partes escuras do planeta, podemos ver a olho nu mais de cinco mil! E os telesc\u00f3pios modernos<\/em>
\n contam uma hist\u00f3ria muito diferente.<\/em><\/p>\n

Com a ajuda de alguns dos mais poderosos instrumentos para medir o brilho de todas as gal\u00e1xias em uma parte do cosmos, astr\u00f4nomos australianos dizem que \u00e9 prov\u00e1vel que existam 70 sextilh\u00f5es de estrelas no Universo vis\u00edvel.<\/em><\/p>\n

Em outras palavras e n\u00fameros, sete seguido de 22 zeros, um n\u00famero realmente astron\u00f4mico.<\/em><\/p>\n

Isso \u00e9 mais do que o n\u00famero total de gr\u00e3os de areia em todas as praias e desertos do mundo, e representa apenas as estrelas que existem no Universo vis\u00edvel ao alcance dos nossos telesc\u00f3pios.<\/em><\/p>\n

Dr. Simon Driver, da Universidade Nacional Australiana, acredita que muitas dessas estrelas t\u00eam planetas, e que provavelmente h\u00e1 vida em alguns deles.<\/em><\/p>\n

A teoria do Dr. Driver na verdade n\u00e3o \u00e9 nova, e esses planetas est\u00e3o t\u00e3o distantes, diz o cientista, que n\u00f3s n\u00e3o temos nenhuma possibilidade de ver ou ter contato com ningu\u00e9m que viva neles.<\/em><\/p>\n
