Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities．Of course，there have always been people who have looked for adventure（冒險）---those who have climbed the highest mountains，traveled into unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans．Now，however，there are people who look for an immediate excitement from a risky（冒險的） activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds．I would consider bungee（蹦極） jumping to be a good example of such an activity．You jump from a high place （perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon） 200 meters above the ground with an elastic（有彈性的） rope tied to your ankles．You fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground．It is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping．Other activities which most people would say are as risky as bungee jumping include jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliff（懸崖）．
For the reasons，some psychologists explain that many people think their life in modern societies has become safe and boring．Not very long ago，people's lives were constantly（持續(xù)的） in danger．They had to go out and hunt for food，diseases could not easily be cured，and life was a continuous battle（戰(zhàn)爭） for survival．
Nowadays，according to many people，life offers little excitement．They live and work in comparatively safe conditions； they buy food in shops； and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill．The answer for some of these people is to look for danger in activities such as bungee jumping．

1．How to prepare for the first time at everything？The following ways may help you.
Never try to be perfect.
It's true that you can hardly manage to do something perfectly the first time you do it.So when you do something for the first time，it is time to just have a try and never think about the result.Also，being perfect is just another excuse to do things later，so trying to be perfect is just a waste of time.
Forget what others think.
In order to make you feel less stressed about your first time，just forget what others are thinking of you.First，many people don't really care that much if you happen to fail at something.Second，remember that others have also started from "zero"as well.Third，focus on your own performance，not on others. .
The time you spend doesn't matter.
One common characteristic of doing something for the first time is that more time is spent.Just be slow and try to learn as much as possible.You will realize that the second time is much easier，since you already have some experience in your pocket.
Plan and prepare.
If possible，try to plan and prepare as much as possible before doing something new.You will gain more self-confidence in this way，and by planning and preparing，you actually may control things well.
Prepare for the second time.
Once you have gone through your "first time experience"，you'll have broken the biggest barrier of all.The excitement and fear is most likely gone and the next time won't be that scary anymore.So you just get ready for the second time.
