Pregunta 4

READING
Read the following article

Extreme sports

What do snowboarding, base jumping, skydiving, downhill mountain biking, and

hang gliding have in common? They are all considered “extreme” sports because
they involve some degree of danger, and lots of excitement.
Many people choose these alternative sports over traditional options like soccer or
tennis. Patrick, 25, started snowboarding when he was eight. He still feels he
needs to be constantly on the edge. Catherine, 47, started bungee jumping a few
years ago simply to add some variety to her life. Indeed, extreme sports, or
alternative sports as others prefer to call them, attract people of all ages, including
parents with their children. Paul, 35, enjoys skateboarding and mountain biking
with his 10-year-old daughter. He says that skateboarding requires as much, if not
more, training and skill as soccer, basketball, or boxing. Many parents like him feel
that some of these sports create the perfect opportunity to teach children about
safety, self-confidence and endurance, while engaging in new physical activities.
Undoubtedly, fear is a special component of these cool sports that attract young
and mature audiences alike. However, according to experts, with the development
of appropriate equipment that enables us to do sports safely, risk of injury can be
reduced. Unfortunately, in most cases, safety equipment is expensive, raising the
cost of participating. For example, a 30-second bungee jump may cost from $50 to
over $300 in different parts of the world.
