Doing something difficult or dangerous.
Joe was at secondary school and his friends always made fun of him. It was because he was afraid of bees. The friends kept telling him that he doesn’t even dare go outside. They called her Rabbit. It is true that he didn’t like being outside, but it was because of the heat, not the bees. Joe decided to do something about it. He was very good at swimming, but his friends didn’t know about it. No wonder, there are no bees under water ? . Once they walked home after school, all the friends together. They reached the bridge over the river. He stopped in the middle of the bridge and asked the others: who dares jump into the river? Nobody dared. Joe took off his clothes and jumped. In the water he laughed and shouted at his friends: “are you afraid of water? It is much bigger than bees.” This time he made fun of his friends. |
