Adventure sports have increased greatly in (popular) over the last few years. More and more people are looking for (excite), perhaps because they feel their lives are (interest). Take, for example, a man who sits in his office all day from Monday to Friday, but on Saturday he is an (adventure) risk- taking hero who participates in the most (danger) of sports. He looks for the (high) cliff to jump from, strapped in a hang glider harness, or he is one of the crew (race)down a river moving at (terrify) speeds. He is not difficult to recognize because he is the one who is often heard (talk) about what he has been doing at the weekend. He is always looking for an unsuspecting (strange) to tell his stories to, and he is always looking for the next thing he can do, which he thinks people will be (impress)by.
Why are some people risk-takers? What makes them take part in (danger)or even life-threatening activities? There are different (explain) for this. Car racers love the (excite) of speed, while climbers get their thrill from (face) challenge of high mountains. Millions of years ago, when people faced danger daily, risk-taking was essential for (survive). Although living in today’s world is (easy) than it was in those days, perhaps that (base) instinct still remains. However, taking risks can become a very (healthy)obsession. Some people can even become addicted to danger, and are unable to stop looking for it. It is also (interest) that the majority of risk-takers seem to be men. Is this because men are more (curiosity)? Or do women think twice about taking risks because they are more (sense)?
