21、1 . 译文参考 攀登珠穆朗玛峰：值得冒险吗？ 1去年，许多人把大笔的钱花在一次经历上，他们知道该经历中有拥挤、 不舒适和危险。许多人会生病，由于极端寒冷和低气压，一些人甚至会失去他们 的生命。然而，尽管如此，到旅行结束时，许多人已经计划返回。对于这些人来 说，攀登珠穆朗玛峰是一种与众不同的体验，能让一些人感到软弱，让另一些人 感到强大。 2英国登山家乔治 马洛里在谈到攀登珠穆朗玛峰时写道：“我们从这次冒 险中得到的只是纯粹的快乐我们活着不是为了吃饭和赚钱。 我们吃饭赚钱是 为了享受生活。这就是生命的意义和目的所在。遗憾的是，马洛里于 1924 年死 在了山上，虽然他的尸体直到许多年后才被找到
22、。目前还不清楚他是否在丢掉性 命之前成功登上珠峰峰顶。 32011 年，美国登山运动员艾伦 阿内特(Alan Arnette)说了类似于马洛里的 一些话。 当年， 阿内特登上了珠穆朗玛峰， 并打算登上世界各地的其他高山。 “它 会让你关注对你来说重要的事情。”他补充道。“停下脚步，原路返回的理由成 千上万；继续前行的理由只有一个。”你必须专注于一个对你来说最重要、最独 特的原因。它迫使你审视自己的内心深处，弄清楚自己是否真的有足够的体力和 脑力，当你想停下来的时候去推动它。 ” 4大多数攀登珠穆朗玛峰的尝试要么完全成功，要么彻底失败，那么在这 7/7 种冒险行为背后是否也有科学依据呢？最近的研究表明冒险是人类天性的一部 分，我们中的一些人比其他人更有可能去冒险。心理学家弗兰克 法利(Frank Farley)多年来一直在研究那些跳出飞机、开快车和爬珠穆朗玛峰的人。他把这些 人的性格称为“T 型”， “T”代表“激动”。 5法利在接受洛杉矶时报采访时谈到了“T 型”人格，他说：“他们 会说， 我不是在冒险，我是专家他们不想死，也不期待死。” 6研究还表明，我们寻求风险的欲望与我们期望从结果中获益的程度有关。 7考虑到这一点，攀登珠穆朗玛峰的好处值得冒险吗？这完全取决于你。
