Activity 4 Third reading—Read for further thinking三读，深入思考
What does Alex say？ What does Alex imply？
He knew the wedding would be the opportunity of a lifetime.
No wonder people from Rio take a week off for this happy occasion.
1. “The opportunity of a lifetime” is used here to emphasize that the chance for Alex to experience an Indian wedding is very rare and he guessed that it must be an amazing experience. It also implies that perhaps he would not have a second chance to have this same experience again.
2. Because the excitement about the Carnival was in the air. “No wonder” is used to show that the happy occasion is a big part of the local people's lives, so it is natural for people from Rio to take a week off for this occasion.
