Some people think the government should ban dangerous sports and some others think it is a freedom to choose the activities we want to. Discuss both view and give your opinion. 有人認為政府應該限制危險性的運動，有人認為人人有權利選擇自己喜愛的運動。討論兩種觀點，給出你的意見。(2011年7月30日 = 2014年8月9日)
【頭腦風暴導言】
通常，令我們敬重和欣賞之人皆有共性：第一，他們做了我們渴望做，但是，卻未敢嘗試的事情。第二，他們成功地做成了我們嘗試未果的事情。深海潛水，讓人探究神秘的海底世界;勇攀高峰，讓人體味一覽眾山小的豪情;海上帆板，讓人感受劈風斬浪的激情。探索未知是人之本性，挑戰自我是人之追求。完善自我保護，加強專業訓練，若如此，人人都應嘗試一些極限運動。
【作家立場】 人生沒有冒險就不能稱其為人生(支持極限運動)。
