If you’re looking for the thrill of a lifetime,running with the bull、should be near the top of your list!Thousands of tourists flock to Spain each year to run with the bulls,but it isn’t exactly a walk in the park—it’s actually an extremely dangerous sport!
The running of the bulls takes place every July during the San Fermin Festival in Pamplona,Spain, Traditionally,the public has an opportunity to run with the bulls down a half 一mile stretch of cobbled(用圆石头砌路的)road, which ends in a bull fighting ring. It happens at 8 AM every morning for a week straight and each race lash two to three minutes. The run started in the mid 1800s when officials would take the bulls from the edge of town to the bull ring(圆形场地)in the center of the city. Before long, people started to join the bulls in the run.
There are plenty of risks going into this event. Participating in the run means risking a pile一up,which can lead to injury or death of both the bulls and the runners. With so many people running in a panic,it can be complete chaos out there. As part of the preparation for the annual event,barricades(路障)are placed on each side of the street so people can easily exit the race.
There are a few key things to remember about participating in the running of the bulls. You should never try to catch a bull’s attention because a bull runs down the path as fast as possible until it reaches its destination. If it is bothered,it will separate from the rest of the bulls and that could spell trouble!Other ways you can avoid injury and chaos are to avoid touching the bulls,run behind them,and make sure not to bother the drovers who lead the bulls to the arena(斗牛场).
Interesting Facts

“Luck is a matter of preparation meeting opportunity,” said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey. I’ ve never watched her show, but when a self-made billionaire gives life advice it’ s probably worth listening to.
Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’ re a Chinese,you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump (树桩) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.
A book by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’ s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune; it’ s practical advice you can follow each day.
Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he divided volunteers into two groups:those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper,” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.
It’s easy to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “lucky”, in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.
I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners,my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ ve also never been sick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence(巧合)? After reading about Professor Wiseman’ s studies I think not.
As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational (理性)thinking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential (潜在)problem.
Finally, try to turn bad luck into good. Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.
