    Richard is an exchange student from the USA. He is teaching his friends at Rose Garden School how to play Softball. He is explaining the rules.
    Richard:     First, we need a bat, a ball and some bases.
    Ben:        What are bases?
    Richard:     They are flat squares that show you where to run. After you hit the ball, you have to run around the bases.
    If you stand on a base, you are safe. If you are running to a base, and the other team touches the base with the ball, then you are out.
    Jennifer:     Oh, I see. How would I hit the ball?
    Richard:     Have you seen baseball on television?
    Jennifer:     I have.

    Psychology（心理学）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(渴望的) result. In that way, we 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(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
    小题2:What does the underlined part “This attitude” in Paragraph 3 mean?
    A．Taking risksB．Fighting off enemies
    C．Discovering new territoriesD．Becoming stronger and stronger
    小题3: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.
    D．We can always achieve our goals by taking risks.
    小题4: Businessmen take a risk in order to __________.
    A．sell parts of a company
    B．complete many things
    C．make more money
    D．get inside a rocket
    小题5:What would be the title for the passage?
    A．Taking risks is easier said than doneB．Risks taken by ancestors
    C．Live our life to the fullestD．No risk, no gain.
