Psychology tells us that many people hate to take risks. But it is good for us to take risks, especially when the risk is to achieve a desired result. In that way, we will become stronger and braver.
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 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 the average person seems to enjoy the risk although they have the understanding that it is dangerous. This psychological and biological 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. However, the things they achieve are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company. But without doing that, they could not make more money.
We need to take risks so that we can gain 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.
28.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
29.What does the underlined part" This attitude" in Paragraph 4refer to?
A.Taking risks. B.Fighting off enemies. C.Discovering new territories.
30.What can we infer from the passage?
A.Daily life is full of risks.
B.The safest place has the greatest risk.
C.People should take risks when they are young.
31.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Taking risks is easier said than done.
B.No risk, no gain.
C.Live our life to the fullest.

Psychology tells us that many people hate to take risks. But it is good for us to take risks, especially when the risk is to achieve a desired result. In that way, we will become stronger and braver.
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 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 the average person seems to enjoy the risk although they have the understanding that it is dangerous. This psychological and biological 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. However, the things they achieve are great. Businessmen take a risk when they buy parts of a company. But without doing that, they could not make more money.
We need to take risks so that we can gain 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.
28.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
29.What does the underlined part" This attitude" in Paragraph 4refer to?
A.Taking risks. B.Fighting off enemies. C.Discovering new territories.
30.What can we infer from the passage?
A.Daily life is full of risks.
B.The safest place has the greatest risk.
C.People should take risks when they are young.
31.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.Taking risks is easier said than done.
B.No risk, no gain.
C.Live our life to the fullest.
