【單字單元:bungee jumping】part 5
香港、澳門等地,有許多高聳的大樓,而喜歡做生意賺錢的商人們,當然也不會放過這樣的商機,於是就有所謂的大樓「高空彈跳」。
老師去澳門的時候就有親眼目睹過,但沒實際嘗試。據稱呢,跳一次就要港幣 (HKD) 1,688 元!(當然是有附加一些如證書啦、紀念照片啦什麼的,但又值不了多少錢…)雖說是取諧音「一路發發」,但以這種收費標準,加上刺激的程度,恐怕還沒發財,心臟病就已經先發作了。
最後我們來看看「高空彈跳」的英文發音及用法:就如同剛剛向各位提到的什麼?「笨豬跳」, bungee 的發音和中文的「笨豬」唸法很相近喔!
bungee 的發音近似於後方中文字的唸法:「邦-居」,
英文的對照: bun-gee
而 jumping 呢?則是:「將-乒」,
英文的對照: jum-ping
兩個字合併之後就成為了: 「邦居--將乒」
英文的對照: bungee--jumping
再複習一次, bungee 是 「塑膠彈簧繩」,而 jumping 則是「跳躍」,所以兩個字組合起來,就成了「使用塑膠彈簧繩來跳躍」,也就是「高空彈跳」了!
接下來再看看下面的例句吧:
Shawn: Finally, the climax of our summer camp is--bungee jumping!
Penny: What? Holy Jesus! I can't do that!
Shawn: Don't worry. Mr. Johnson is with us. He is a pro.
Penny: But...I've never tried this before.
夏恩:最後呢,我們夏令營的重頭戲就是—「高空彈跳」!
佩妮:瞎密?我的天啊,我做不到!
夏恩:別擔心啦。強森先生會陪在我們身邊。他是這方面的專家。
佩妮:但是…我從來沒有嘗試過(高空彈跳)耶。
如果我們將 bungee jumping 與其他的驚險刺激活動相加比較,儘管這個活動被戲稱為「笨豬跳」,但在層層檢驗與保護的把關下,怎麼說也比毫無安全措施的 tombstoning 要放心多了!只是還是請各位要量力而為,不然可能會追求刺激不成,反倒是像下面這位仁兄一樣出糗喔。
(剉屎剉了整件褲子…)

Blue Lagoon in Wales is the perfect place for cliff diving, wild swimming and hiking. Found on the rugged coastline of South Wales near Abereiddy. It is a must travel location in the UK for outdoor and adventure lovers!!
We got up early so as to miss the crowds and got to experience wild swimming and cliff diving in this incredible natural wonder! Once we had done our cliff jumps we hiked up above the lagoon and explored the coastal hiking trail that takes you through scenic Welsh Landscape. We were very lucky with the weather and so got to experience this incredible UK hike in fantastic British Summer weather.
I really hope you enjoy this adventure vlog and if you want to see more adventure travel in the UK please let me know!

The Jubilee River is the perfect spot for wild swimming. It doesn't have any boat traffic and with England's weather not being so great recently I decided to go for an adventure I didn't mind getting wet for!
In this adventure vlog I explore the stunning Jubilee River by wild swimming and jumping off each bridge that I see along the way. On each bridge I did different flips, thought it would make the adventure a bit more exciting and I really had so much fun doing so.
If you are going to bridge jump make sure to do so safely, check the depth of the water and make sure that you are jumping somewhere that doesn't have a strong under current.
I really hope you enjoyed this adventure video and please let me know what you think about the gopro travel vlogging style.

My friend fell off a waterfall over 2 years ago and hasn't been cliff diving or bridge jumping since. I decided to take him on a crazy adventure that would tackle his fear head on!
One of my favorite things to do in summer is bridge jumping and cliff diving so I wanted to help my friend overcome his fear of heights and diving. We cycled to the beautiful Jubilee River in the English Countryside for a bridge jumping adventure. Here he would face his fear and hopefully overcome it.
I hope you enjoy this adventure video and please let me know if you would like to see more adventure vlogs like this one :D
