Read this magazine article about extreme sports. Choose the most suitable heading from the list A - D, for each part (1 -4).

Imagine this scene: a woman inside a cage in the sea, with sharks all around her. Wouldn't you expect the woman to feel terrified? Not Gill Williams she finds such experiences absolutely thrilling. Gill is an extreme sportswoman - an adventurer who takes sport to its most dangerous limits.

"I love scary animals." says Gill. "I love being near them and touching them. Great white sharks come and attack the bars of the cage. I touch them, but I don't let them bite me!' There are more people like Gill than you might think. They leave their offices and businesses to spend their free time doing extremely dangerous things Some of them fly jets across deserts or go diving in unexplored caves, while others explore African rivers. All of them want to experience something more than their normal lives can offer. They want adventure.

Bob Card is a skydiving trainer. He teaches people to leap out of aeroplanes and let themselves fall through the air without opening then parachutes until the very last minute.

"I believe there is an adventurer inside every one of us," he says. "It doesn't matter how old or strong you are. The adventurer is there - it's just hidden away somewhere If you find that spirit, your life will take on new meaning

One advantage of doing extreme sports to satisfy your need for adventure is that you can completely forget about your everyday problems. As Bob says: "You can t be concerned about business phone calls or examination results when you're jumping out of a plane "

How much danger can a person take? According to Sandra Quiggen. panic is rare, even when you come face to face with a bad-tempered hippopotamus on the Zambezi River. "You get scared," she says. "Those hippos have big teeth But a little fear makes the brain work faster, as long as you don't let it turn into panic

There is an element of risk in all extreme sports If you don t do things right, you are asking for trouble." says Card. But training and proper equipment help to make these sports safer. The difference between extreme sport and ' normal'' sport is that, although there are organised competitions for these sports, most extreme sports people are more interested in testing their own abilities than in winning prizes. In fact, most of them would agree with mountaineer Sir Edmund Hilary's reply when asked why he wanted to climb Everest "Because it's there '
