There have never been many adventurers. You van read stories about men called adventures. But they were really businessmen. There was something they wanted----- a lady, or money, or a country, or honor. And so they got it. But a true adventure is different. He starts without any special purpose. He is ready for anything he may meet.
There have been many half-adventurers. And they were great men. History is rich with their stories. But each of them had a special purpose. They were not followers of true adventure.
In the big city of New York, Romance and Adventure are always waiting.
As we walk along the street, they are watching us. We look up suddenly and see a face in a window. The face seems to interest us strangely. Or in a quiet street, we hear a cry of fear and pain coming from a house where no one lives. A car takes us to a strange door, instead of to our own. The door opens and we are asked to enter. At every corner, eyes look toward us, or hands are raised, or fingers point. Adventure is offered.
But few of us are ready to accept. We are ready to do only the things we do every day. We wish to do only the things that everyone else does. We move on; and some day we come to the end of a long quiet life. Then we begin to think. Then, when it is too late, we are sorry that we have never known true Romance and Adventure.
Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventures ----those who have climbed the highest mountains, traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.
I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic (有弹性的) rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping include jumping from tall building and diving into the sea from the top of high cliff.(悬崖)
Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle for survival.(生存).
Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in comparatively safe conditions; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping. 展开

我试一试吧。。。
永远不会有很多的冒险家。你范读有关男子称为冒险的故事。但他们真的是商人。有一些他们想要的----一位女士,或金钱,或国家或荣誉。于是他们得到它。但真正的冒险是不同的。他开始没有任何特别的目的。他是他可能满足一切就绪。
已有许多半冒险家。他们都是伟大的人。历史是丰富着他们的故事。但他们每个人都有特殊的目的。他们不是冒险的真正的追随者。
在纽约的大城市,浪漫和冒险总是等待。
当我们漫步在街上,他们正在看我们。我们突然看,看到一张脸,在一个窗口中。脸上似乎很奇怪我们感兴趣。或在安静的街道,我们听到一声的恐惧和痛苦来自一座无人居住的房子。一辆车把我们奇怪的门,而不是我们自己。门开了,我们将要求输入。在每个角落,眼睛看向我们,或引发的手,或手指点。提供的冒险。
但我们很少有人愿意接受。我们准备去做我们每天做的事情。我们愿做其他人那样的事情。我们前进 ;与某一天,我们走到尽头的长平静的生活。然后我们开始想。然后时已经太迟了,我们很抱歉我们一直不知道真正的浪漫和冒险。
在世界各地越来越多的人正在危险的运动和活动的一部分。当然,总是已经找了----那些有爬上最高的山,遨游世界的未知部分或划着小船横渡最大海洋的冒险经历的人。现在,不过,有寻找从高风险活动有可能仅持续几分钟或甚至几秒钟立即兴奋的人。
我认为是很好的例子,这种活动的蹦极跳。你从高处 (或许是一座桥或热气球) 200 米跳弹索绑到你的脚踝。你落在每小时直到绳子停止你撞击地面达 150 公里。据说世界各地的约 2 万人现在过蹦极跳。大多数人会说是一样蹦极跳的风险的其他活动包括跳从高层建筑和潜水入海,或者从顶部的高悬崖。
为什么做人参加这类活动,作为这些?一些心理学家认为现在因为生活在现代社会已成为安全和无聊。不很久以前,疾病可能不容易治愈,和生命是连续生存之战。
如今,很多人,生活提供了小小的兴奋。他们生活和工作在较安全的条件 ;他们买食物的店铺;还有医生和医院照顾他们,如果他们生病。有些人的答案是寻找危险的活动,如蹦极跳。
