充分享受生活，這些經歷你有過多少？

Only one in five Brits believe they are really living life to the full, according to a new study.
一項新研究顯示，僅五分之一英國人認爲自己確實充分享受了生活。

Researchers have discovered that, although half of us claim to have a zest for life, the reality is that the majority of us long for more excitement in our lives.
研究人員發現，雖然一半英國人聲稱自己對生活充滿熱情，但實際上，大多數人期待在生活中體驗更多刺激。

After examining the lifestyles and aspirations of almost 2,000 British adults, the survey announced the 37 ultimate life-fulfilling experiences, which include flying on a private jet and partying on a super yacht.
在調查了近2000名英國成年人的生活方式和願望後，該調查宣佈了37項被認爲最能夠豐富生活的終極經歷，其中包括乘坐私人飛機和參加豪華遊艇派對。

Overall the research showed that as a nation we have daring aspirations, with 44 per cent of us claiming to be ‘adventurous’.
總的來說，該調查顯示英國人有着十分大膽的願望，44%的人稱自己勇於冒險。

The biggest excuses for not grabbing our dreams is that we are not able to find the time, money or courage to take on exciting new challenges, and 24 per cent of those surveyed claimed adventure was out of reach.
而無法實現夢想最大的託辭是沒有時間、沒有錢或者沒有勇氣接受新鮮刺激的挑戰。24%的被調查者說冒險是遙不可及的。

Seven in 10 said that if they had their time again they would be more ‘reckless’ when it came to seeking fun and adventure.
70%的人表示，如果人生有機會重來，他們會更勇敢地去享樂和冒險。

A plucky one in seven said they embarked on adventures as often as possible, but one in four admitted they never try anything exciting.
七分之一的人大膽表明自己已經儘可能地參加冒險活動，四分之一的人承認他們從未嘗試過任何刺激的事情。

More than half of those who took part in the study said they were envious of people who seemingly live exciting lives.
被調查者中，超過一半的人說他們很羨慕那些生活似乎很刺激的人。

The data also revealed that most of us re-assess what we are doing with our lives at the age of 32.
數據也顯示，大部分人會在32歲的時候重新審視和評價我們的生活。

Living life to the full includes learning to survive in the wild, skinny dipping, travelling to watch a World Cup Final and being an extra in a film, according to the survey.
調查中，人們認爲充分享受生活包括學習野外生存技能、裸泳、長途跋涉去看一場世界盃決賽，以及在電影裏客串一把。

Driving across the US on Route 66 was also up there, as was taking in the view from the Empire State Building in New York.
開車穿越美國66號公路、登上帝國大廈頂樓俯瞰世界也榜上有名。

Crossing the Golden Gate BRidge in San Francisco, learning to ski or snowboard and learning a foreign language are all also things you have to experience.
此外，橫穿舊金山金門大橋、學滑冰或滑雪以及學習一門外語等也都是你必須去體驗的事情。
