3) I do not agree that the people who take part in

extreme sports are irresponsible. It will be a once in a lifetime opportunity

and they should be just enjoying that time. Anyways they would have gotten instruction

before they start doing the activity as the one show in the picture. Thus, i do not think they are irresponsible.

1. Considering how i like the thrill, i think i

would like these kinds of sports. I think the

rush would be extremely heart-thumping. Given

that I'm one who likes to try out new things, i would

love this activity.

2. I believe they can learn how to rid their fears of height

if they one, also they might be able to become more

courageous.

3. I disagree entirely. I believe that these people are not

irresponsible. Participating in this sort of sport takes

quite a bunch of courage and a certain fitness criteria.

1)Yes, i would enjoy taking part in such a activity.

The activity shown in the picture is an extreme sport which involves great height and high level of danger and that is why i want to try this activity. it will help me push my limits and help me overcome my fear. In my opinion, the higher the risk and fear, the more fun i can have. Thus, i will enjoy taking part in such activity.

2) I think people can learn about their true potential. Till we try out something, we would not know whether we can do it or not. For example, I used to have phobia of heights and now i am a talking to you who can even stand and look down from the top of Marina Bay Sands. This is because, when i went to my secondary 3 camp, all of us had to take part in rock climbing. i was horrified when my turn came and with my friends encouragement i managed to push myself and try it. but after a while i was having the best time ever and that is when i realised that i can do it. Thus, i think that we can learn about ourselves when trying out adventure activities.

3) I do not agree that people who take part in adventure activities are irresponsible.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Yes, i would enjoy the activity shown in the picture. It will be a thrilling and exciting experience for me since I seldom get the chance to try out such extreme sports activity. Furthermore, such extreme sports are gaining more popularity among youths nowadays so it is a must to try out such activities.

2) By taking part in adventure activities, people are able to learn to take up more and new challenges and also definitely to learn to overcome their fears. Extreme sports allows one to go through a series of training that requires a lot of endurance and perseverance, hence they would be more determined to face any difficulties when they get involve in such adventure activities.

3) I do not agree that people who take part in extreme sports are irresponsible. In fact, they have to go through a lot before being able to be called experts in the sports that they take part in. They sacrifice many valuable time and they are actually already somehow or another sacrificing their lives. So i do not see how this is not considered being responsible. Such people also have to be disciplined and they must have the proper mindset to achieve their goals and targets.

Also, extreme sports is a new thing to me and thus, i will like to try it out as i like to try on new things and i find it very meaningful. Through extreme sports, i can also learn to be more courageous as to take on this kind of sports, i would need to have a steel nerve.

2) I believe that people can learn to be more courageous and they will also be more willing to take on tough challenges. Through this adventure activities, people will learn that they must gather their courage and wits to take on this sports. Also, when people are climbing the world's highest mountain or doing bugee jumping, they will learn to respect the challenges they are facing and they will not take on life-threatening activities lightly. Morever, through this series of activities, people can learn to overcome their fears. By trying out, they will learn that there is nothing scary about climbing great height and they may also find it fun and enjoy it.

3) I do not agree that people who take part in extreme sports are irresponsible. I believe that when people take part in this kind of extreme sports, they will certainly know what are the risks behind it. Therefore,when they want to do this kind of sports, it is because they are immensely interested in it and they want to try it out. They will know the risk and they would not blame anyone if they got into an accident. Also, before trying out an extreme sports, people are usually required to sign an agreement.

1.Yes I would enjoy this type of activity as from young, I've always had a passion for exciting and enjoyable sports and I love the feeling of adrenaline coursing through me as I partake in all these extreme sports!

2.People can learn to get rid of their fears after taking part in these adventure activities. For example, I used to be scared of heights prior to participating in extreme sports but after taking part in rock climbing and absailing, I've since learnt to conquer my fears and take a step in the right direction of not fearing heights.

3. I do not agree that people who take part in extreme sports are irresponsible. Certainly, extreme sports are risky and they may result in fatalities but it is the life of just one individual at stake and I believe that an individual may spend their lives as they choose. As long as those people are not making the lives of others at stake due to their actions, I believe that they may participate in extreme sports as they wish.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Yes, I would enjoy this type of activity shown because it would be a new experience for me. Also, extreme sports is very thrilling as we get to try out many different types of sports such as Bungee Jumping, Sky Diving and Cave Diving.

2) By taking part in adventure activities, people can learn to overcome their fears and be more willing to take up challenges. They would have a sense of achievement in them after being able complete an activity which they were feared of. In fact, I am afraid of heights and did not dare to join activities such as Rock Climbing. However, after my Secondary 3 camp, I was able to overcome this fear and did the activity.

3) No, I do not agree that people who does extreme sports are irresponsible because it is a rare chance to have such experience. Although there would be risk involved but there are professional instructors to guide them along the way. hence it is safe.

1. Yes I would enjoy this kind of activity as it is enjoyable and fun.

The youth in me have always been out there seeking for more fun and

adventurous activities. Activities like these triggers my inner soul, catching my

interests. Activities that are fun and out of this world excites me thus i believe it

would be enjoyable for me.

2. Through adventure activities, people can be more exposed to the outside world,

learning how much more there is to life on Earth. These activities will also test their courage

and strength, letting us learn how strong we are. A few years ago when i was in a camp doing

rock climbing and abseiling, i realised my limits as an individual. This gave me the desire to

further improve myself physically.

3. I do not agree that people who take part in extreme sports are irresponsible as these people realise

that their lives are at risk by going through these activities. They have to be responsible for themselves and also

make sure that their teammates going through the activities with them are safe and sound also. By keeping the safety

of their team in check, this shows how responsible they are.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Yes I would enjoy this type of activity because it is something new that

I have never tried before and this sense of curiosity of wanting to feel what

it is like to do extreme sports would motivate me to do such activities. Also,

such activities helps me to gain new learning experience that I can learn

from and incorporate into my life such as having more confidence and also

to take up challenges.

2) People can learn to overcome their fears and have a sense of

achievement for overcoming their fears. This can motivate them to do

better as they will feel like able to overcome any problems that they will face

either at work or at home.

3) I do not agree that people who take part in extreme sports are

irresponsible. Even though the risks are higher when doing extreme sports,

however it must also be noted there is already risk in whatever we do. For

example when crossing the road, there is already a risk of getting knocked

down by vehicle which may result in death. Hence, I do not agree that people

who take part in extreme sports are irresponsible.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Yes, I would because

I've always had a thing with activities that

-> excites me

-> let adrenaline rush course through me

-> something that challenges me

-> it looks fun and enjoyable

-> and the experiences will be worthwile

eg: Sec 3 Camp, High Rope Challenge NPCC

2. 3 things that we can learn from adventure activities are

-> able to overcome your fear

eg: some people are afraid of heights, by doing high elements

extreme sports, it'll help to overcome your fear, most people do not trust themselves when they do

something dangerous or life threatening, by doing the activities

they are able to trust themselves that they'll pass this acitivites

and live (kekekeke)

-> Enhance their physique

eg: Mountain climbing is not easy, thigh and arm muscles must be really

-> learn to be responsible and be safety precatious

eg: In every step and action you do in extreme sports, your life

is on the line, therefore you'll be more responsible in whatever

you do and think about your actions before you do them.

The lesson you learnt can be applied in daily activities.

3. I do not entirely agree that people who do extreme sports

are irresponsible people because

-> Their actions by doing the extreme sports could cost them

their life, therefore they have to think thoroughly and be

responsible on what they do.

eg: A wrong step by the mountain climbers, could kill them etc.

-> Extreme sports doers always put safety precautions first

than the sport.

eg: They always and must wear safety harness and whatsoever

safety equipments before they partake in any activity. They

go through training before they do the activities therefore I believ

they aren't irresponsible.

-> However,

1.Yes, I would enjoy this kind of activity as it is enjoyable. Such activities will make me fell a sense of adventure that will allow me to enjoy the activity as well as the scenery and especially the first time experience, which will make me come back for more in the future.

Through these activities, I will be able to become more courageous and overcome my fear of heights, which will allow me to take part in other activities that involve high elements.

These kind of activities pose as a challenge to me, people like me who like to accept challenges will enjoy these activities as it will invoke a sense of risk taking, which is important as it allows us to make important decisions in the future.

2.I feel that people can learn to overcome their fears such as the fear of heights after participating in such activities as they will remember the experience and enjoy it the next time. I still remember, before my Sec 3 adventure camp, I was still afraid of heights; but after going through some activities such as rock climbing and absailing, I've learnt to overcome my fear of heights.

People will also gain new skills and techniques through such activities. During my Sec 3 adventure camp, I learnt new skills such as absailing and rock climbing, which may help me in the future.

Also, people can learn to take risks and make important decisions as these decisions and risks may affect their lives.

3.I do not agree that the people who take part in extreme sports are irresponsible, as these people should have undergone proper training to prepare for such stunts or activities, and they should have made proper decisions before undergoing such extreme sports. As such, they should be able to make sure that they won't be fatally injured or hurt during the stunt or activity.

# data[].attributes.body
1)yes i would enjoy these kind of activities as it is very thrilling and enjoyable to me. I have been taking part in extreme sports since a young. it provides me with the adrenaline rush that keep me coming back for more.

2)People can learn how to overcome their fears. For example, i had gone bungee jumping before and i was terrified of falling from such height. However once i had overcome my fear i actually wanted to try it again. So extreme sports can help people overcome their fears. Moreover extreme sports provide exposure of risk taking. These high risk sports will make you ask yourself if you are willing to take such risks.

3) I strongly disagree that people who take part in extreme sports are irresponsible. Although the sports are of extremely high risk, it is up to the individual to decide if he or she wants to participate in such a sport. There is a high chance of fatality or injury but it is by choice.Hence i strongly disagree that it is irresponsible
