It shows the waveform twice because it is a stereo file, so it has two channels. You can combine both channels, but it's not recommended as it'll probably decrease quality to some extent, and you may end up with some nasty phase-canceling as well.
As for reading them, you can expand the audio track by clicking on the bottom of the track in the list on the left and then dragging it down. Couple that with zooming in far enough and you should be able to see beats easier. Though Strudel is right; the easiest way to find your beats will be to simply listen for them before trying to see them in the waveform. He is a doctor after all.
... yea ...
