Questions 168~171 refer to the following passage.

Adventure travel has become increasingly popular in recent years, with many people seeking outdoor recreational activities that involve physical exertion and offer a thrill of excitement. However, adventure travel can also come with inherent risks, and it is important to take steps to ensure that you are properly prepared and minimize the risk of injury or illness.

Some popular adventure travel activities include hiking, biking, and white-water rafting. These activities require a certain level of fitness and appropriate equipment to be carried out safely. For example, if you are planning to go hiking, it is important to wear comfortable, sturdy shoes and bring plenty of water and snacks. Biking requires a good quality helmet and a well-maintained bike. White-water rafting requires specialized equipment such as helmets and life jackets, and it is important to choose a reputable company with experienced guides.

In addition to being properly equipped, it is important to take steps to minimize the risk of injury or illness while engaging in adventure travel. Staying hydrated is critical in all activities, and it is important to take frequent breaks to avoid overexertion. It is also important to take appropriate safety precautions, such as wearing a helmet while biking and following the guide's instructions while white-water rafting.

Furthermore, it is recommended to consult a healthcare provider or travel medicine specialist before embarking on any adventure travel. This is especially important if you are traveling to a location where there may be specific health risks, such as altitude sickness or water-borne diseases. A healthcare provider can provide advice on how to minimize these risks and provide any necessary vaccinations or medications.

To sum up, adventure travel is an excellent way to challenge yourself and experience the great outdoors. However, it is crucial to prioritize your safety and take necessary precautions to minimize any risks of injury or illness. By being well-equipped, staying hydrated, taking appropriate safety measures, and seeking advice from a healthcare provider, you can ensure that your adventure travel experience is enjoyable, fulfilling, and safe.

Questions 181~185 refer to the following Book Excerpt and email.

Book Excerpt: "The Art of Thinking Clearly" by Rolf Dobelli

Introduction

The human mind is capable of incredible feats, yet it has surprising limitations. We often fall into thinking traps that lead us to make poor decisions, based on flawed assumptions or incomplete information. These traps are so common that they have names: confirmation bias, hindsight bias, the sunk cost fallacy, and many others. In this book, I will explore these thinking traps and offer strategies for avoiding them.

Chapter 1: The Anchoring Effect

Our minds are wired to use anchors - starting points - when making decisions. Once an anchor is set, we tend to adjust our thinking around it, even if it is arbitrary or irrelevant. For example, when negotiating a salary, the first number mentioned tends to become the anchor, even if it is not a reasonable figure.

Chapter 2: The Sunk Cost Fallacy

We often make the mistake of continuing to invest in a failing project, simply because we have already invested so much time, money, or effort. This is known as the sunk cost fallacy. We need to recognize when a project is unlikely to succeed and cut our losses, rather than throwing good money after bad.

Chapter 3: Confirmation Bias

We tend to seek out information that confirms our existing beliefs, and discount or ignore information that contradicts them. This is known as confirmation bias. To avoid this thinking trap, we need to actively seek out dissenting opinions and consider them with an open mind.

Chapter 4: The Halo Effect

We often form an overall impression of a person or thing based on a single positive attribute, such as attractiveness or success. This is known as the halo effect. To avoid this thinking trap, we need to break down our judgments into smaller components and evaluate each one separately.

Chapter 5: Overconfidence

We are often overly confident in our own abilities and judgments, leading us to take risks or make decisions that are not backed up by evidence. To avoid overconfidence, we need to seek out diverse perspectives and be willing to admit when we don't know something.

Conclusion

The thinking traps explored in this book are just a few examples of the ways in which our minds can lead us astray. By recognizing these traps and using strategies to avoid them, we can make better decisions and lead more successful lives.

David Thompson was a humble market vendor in Sunderland, UK. One day, while he was selling his fresh produce, a talent scout noticed his friendly personality and unique style of selling his goods. The talent scout offered him a role in a leisure food advertisement that turned out to be a massive hit, making David an overnight sensation.

Many viewers criticized him for his disrespectful behavior, and the producers of the reality show decided to replace him with another cast member.

Feeling ashamed and embarrassed by his actions, David decided to take a break from the limelight and returned to his hometown to reflect on his behavior. Despite the setback, he continued to run his market stall, where he enjoyed interacting with the local community and selling his fresh produce.

Subject: Complaint

Dear InnovaSpaces,

I am writing to express my disappointment regarding a recent study group session that took place in one of your conference rooms. As the head of the study group, I am concerned about the significant noise disruptions caused by individuals occupying the adjacent room.

Despite the quiet and distraction-free environment your conference rooms are known for,we experienced constant disturbances due to excessive noise from the neighboring occupants. This situation greatly hampered our ability to concentrate and collaborate effectively during our study session.

I kindly request that you address this issue promptly to ensure a peaceful and conducive environment for future study groups. It would be highly appreciated if you could implement measures to minimize such disturbances and ensure that all guests adhere to the expected standards of behavior and noise control.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response and a satisfactory resolution.

Yours sincerely,
Nelson
