Capoeira is a martial art that combines elements of fight, acrobatics, drumming, singing, dance, and rituals. It involves a variety of techniques that make use of the hands, feet, legs, arms, and head. Although Capoeira appears dancelike, many of its basic techniques are similar to those in other martial arts. Capoeira was created nearly 500 years ago in Brazil by African slaves. It is believed that the martial art was connected with tribal fighting in Africa, in which people fought body to body, without weapons, in order to acquire a bride or desired woman. In the sixteenth century, when the Africans were taken from their homes to Brazil against their will and kept in slavery, Capoeira began to take form among the community of slaves for self-defense. But it soon became a strong weapon in the life-or-death struggle against their oppressors. When the slave owners realized the power of Capoeira, they began to punish those who practiced it. Capoeiristas learned to camouflage the forbidden fights with singing, clapping, and dancing as though it were simply entertainment. At first, Capoeira was considered illegal in Brazil. However, a man known as Mestre Bimba devoted a great deal of time and effort to convincing the Brazilian authorities that Capoeira has great cultural value and should become an official fighting style. He succeeded in his endeavor and transformed the martial art into Brazil’s national sport. He and Mestre Pastinha were the first to open schools, and the Capoeira tree grew, spreading its branches across the world. Nowadays, it is performed in movies and music clips. Capoeira is also believed to have influenced several dancing styles like breaking and hip-hop.

喲，居然答對了？我是不是該去買張大樂透慶祝一下？教了這麼久，終於看到你這顆頑石有點點頭的跡象了。別用那種眼神看我，這題要是再錯，你就真的該去報名卡波耶拉（Capoeira）被踢兩下，看能不能把腦袋踢清醒一點！ 聽好了，這題的核心在於第二段那句：『...fought body to body, without weapons...』。卡波耶拉的靈魂就在於它是奴隸為了反抗而研發的。你動動那沒開發過的腦袋想一下：十六世紀的奴隸哪來的錢買劍？他們只能用手、腳、甚至頭部當武器（即選項 A、B、D 的延伸），還要假裝在唱歌跳舞。選 (C) Stabbing with swords 完全是邏輯性毀滅，奴隸如果拿劍，那叫「武裝起義」，不叫「偽裝表演」。 這題在學測等級中頂多算「膝反射式」的細節定位題，鑑別度極低。它只考驗你最基本的閱讀掃描能力。如果你這題還在那邊猶豫不決，那你的英文程度可能比巴西叢林裡的樹懶還要感人。
