This photo, which shows a woman sleeping in front of a tunnel painted with the 2016 Olympics' slogan -- "A New World" -- has absolutely taken over Facebook in Brazil. 
 
一张照片在巴西火了。这张发布于脸书的照片里,一位妇女躺在张贴有2016年巴西奥运会口号“一个新世界”的隧道口前睡觉。
 
 
The photo has been shared more than 17,000 times and has gone viral inside Brazil. 
 
Brazil has spent much of the last four years in the midst1 of a campaign attempting to sweep aside any sign of poverty in the city that's due to the host the Olympics in just a few weeks. 
 
But the photo that's rocketing around Brazil's internet shows that as much as they try, the government can't eradicate2 the city's issues. 
 
Some people left comments critiquing the Olympic games. 
 
"The makeup3 will be very beautiful, but when the foreigners leave the country, the river will be more blurred4 and Brazil be ashamed," this commenter wrote on Facebook. 
 
Others pointed5 out that the photo "shows the unfortunate realities of Brazil."
