Part Four: Monologue
Carl’s Note:
Extreme sports are very new in America. They usually come from people trying the craziest things. Bungee jumping is a good example. Someone tied a bungee cord to himself one day and jumped off of a very tall bridge. Bungee cords stretch a lot, so the person lived, but he took a big risk to find out if his idea would work. Another extreme sport is snowboarding. A skier decided to stand sideways on one piece of wood to get down the mountain instead of using two skis. People like these dangerous sports because they are exciting. They often do them for “the rush” they get. The first extreme sport might have been mountaineering, or mountain climbing. Sir Edmund Hillary, the first man to climb Mt. Everest, gave another reason for doing something so dangerous. When asked why he climbed the world’s tallest mountain, he replied, “Because it was there.”
卡爾的話：
極限運動在美國還很新鮮。通常是喜歡嘗試刺激的人參加極限運動。蹦極跳就是壹個很好的例子。某天某人用橡皮筋套住自己，然後從壹個很高的橋上跳下。橡皮筋有很好的伸張力，所以這個人不會有生命危險，但是要證實自己的想法是否管用還是具有很大的冒險性。另外壹個極限運動的例子則是滑雪。壹位滑雪者決定使用其中壹塊木板，側面站在這塊木板上滑下山坡而不是使用兩塊滑板。人們之所以喜歡這種危險的運動是因為這些運動夠刺激。往往就是為了那壹股“沖勁”。最早的極限運動可能就是登山，或者叫做登山運動。艾得蒙?希拉裏爵士是第壹個爬上珠穆朗瑪峰的人，他道出了之所以從事這些危險舉動的另壹個原因。當問到他為什麽會選擇攀爬世界第壹高峰的時候，他回答：因為它在那裏。
