why do you think it is that some people enjoy engaging in dangerous sports.
Although there are many sports available which are not dangerous but many people like to do PLAY dangerous sports., not only for fun but to overcome from stress and boring life. In this essay I will demonstrate many points to give reasons why people enjoy dangerous sports.
FirstLY, engaging in life threatening sports can help people overcome their fearS and to discover THEIR internal power and, their potential talents and abilities. Let me take an FOR example I remember my friend was always scared of looking downside from the height HIGH altitudeS. However after taking training of FOR trekking he became a great trekker. So, these activities improveED his internal ability TO OVERCOME FEAR and helpED HIM to find A great Career.
Furthermore, some people want to try extreme sports because they want to experience and enjoy strong feelings adrenaline rush. In fact many dangerous sports bring strong feelings FEAR, but once YOU get familiar with that feelings SPORT YOU can enjoy them. For example, lot of people ARE afraid to jump out of the flight when they do sky diving FOR THE first time. However many people say that they enjoy the feeling of free falling and see the nature from high altitude.
Finally, life threatening games make people happy. With some people, normal things in daily life are so GET boring so by engaging into dangerous games they can reduce their pressure of work load and change the way of life from day to day office activities.
In conclusion, I would say that people are attracted towards life threatening games for different reasons, either to discover their internal abilities and capabilities or to make strong feelings and to overcome from stress of work.

Hi Avinash,
I think you should not use the same terms too many times -- that is why I replaced 'high altitude' with 'great heights' or 'life threatening sports' with 'life endangering sports'/'life risking sports' etc. Besides, 'life threatening sports' seems wrong to me, but it could be that it is just not very commonly used.
Just a second opinion from another learner. Good luck with your exam. _________________ Just remember... if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off! |

Avinash, I am glad that you find reading my posts helpful (well, maybe a few of them, I should add :-P), but let's not get carried away here: I cannot grade your essay, I am no teacher! :-) _________________ Just remember... if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off! |

Sorry to say cristina, but some other checkers on here are giving grades. There is nothing wrong with that, even if grades are low. They are meant to enocurage writers to write better. So please do not make rules because you are not a head over here.
Avinash I m glad I could help :) 7.5/10 _________________ Just a confused kid... trying to live through twists & turns of life!

Relax, Katty: I have no wish to make any rules here and I have never tried that. I just don't really see how a grade given by a learner would help another learner (especially when the grade is 4/10!). I think some constructive comments would be more helpful than that.
Ok, since Avinash specifically asked for my opinion, I'd say 8/10 -- there, happy now? :-) _________________ Just remember... if the world didn't suck, we'd all fall off! |

Heyy guys,
Thankyou so much. I always welcome and appreciate if you will give rating to my essay but there is no compulsion because your comments are more important for me than the rating.
Please check my another essays also, because I think I am making lots of grammatical and other mistakes.
Thanks |
