Our human nature should be to take risks, but some people just sit and wish they didn’t have the fear to move on. This is because they failed a few times in their lives. Please step out and don’t let the past hold you back from living life to the fullest. Move forward and move on! In studying the psychology of taking risks, we find that human nature provides us with the desire to experiment and take chances.
Risk taking is a great advantage that allowed our ancestors(祖先) to become stronger and stronger day by day. By taking risks they fought off enemies and discovered new territories(领土). This attitude has become a part of our modern culture. Riding a roller coaster is a common risk taking activity. Even each person seems to enjoy the risk although they have the understanding that it is dangerous. This psychological and biological (生物学的) connection creates an interesting connection between what is unsafe and what humans enjoy.
Getting in a car each day is a risk. Getting out of bed is a risk, too. We need to take risks so that we can complete many things. Astronauts take risks when they get inside a rocket(火箭); however, the things they achieve are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company. However, without doing that, they could not make more money.
We need to take risks so that we can gain(获得) something. It is impossible to move forward in life, earn money, enjoy a relationship, play a sport, or do anything else without taking a risk. It is all part of the game. It’s one of the most important parts of life.
小题1:Some people don’t want to take risks, mainly because ___________.
A.they are too lazy to move on |
B.they feel pleased with the present life |
C.they have failed several times before |
D.they show little interest in the strange world outside |
A.Taking risks | B.Fighting off enemies |
C.Discovering new territories | D.Becoming stronger and stronger |
A.Daily life is full of risks. |
B.The safest place has the greatest risk. |
C.People should take risks when they are young. |
D.We can always achieve our goals by taking risks. |
A.sell parts of a company |
B.complete many things |
C.make more money |
D.get inside a rocket |
A.Taking risks is easier said than done | B.Risks taken by ancestors |
C.Live our life to the fullest | D.No risk, no gain. |
Three days later, a letter 18 . It asked me to see the 19 at Croydon. It proved to be an 20 journey—a train to Croydon station, a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of at 21 a quarter of a mile. It was clearly that the headmaster himself opened the door. He was 22 and round.
“The school” he said, “has a group of twenty-four boys 23 seven and thirteen.”

It was 29 that I had to teach them on Saturday afternoon because most of my friends would be 30 themselves at that time.
Before I had time to ask about my salary(薪水), he got up to his feet. “ Now,” he said. “ you’d better meet my wife. She is the one who really runs this school.

The Aborigines (澳洲土著) have lived in Australia for about 60,000 years. They painted pictures inside caves, and these are the rock paintings that have given us so much information about Aboriginal life. For example, some of the paintings that are about 10,000 years old show men with boomerangs. From this we know that the Aborigines started using boomerangs for hunting at that time. Other pictures show kangaroos, so we know that there were kangaroos at that time.
The Aborigines believed that spirits made people, animals and plants, and that these spirits still live in the earth. For Aborigines, no one can own the earth—the earth belongs to the spirits.
In 1700, there were many Aboriginal groups with a population of 750,000 all over Australia, and there were probably more than 240 different Aboriginal languages. The groups did not have a leader. Instead, things were decided by the older men in a group. People from different groups often travelled hundreds of miles to meet each other.
Aboriginal life changed when an English boat arrived in Australia in 1770. Many Aborigines were killed in the wars that they had with the English. More Europeans came, and they started taking land from the Aborigines. The Europeans also brought new illnesses that killed the Aborigines. The result is that today there are only about 300,000 Aborigines in Australia.

A.on animals’ fur | B.on the land |

A.the older men | B.the leader |

A.because their living condition was very bad |
B.because the English killed a lot of them in the wars |
C.because of the new illnesses the Europeans brought them |
