Freeflying    (base) on the more traditional skydiving,     of which are eye-catching. However, it is more terrifying to watch freeflyers create formations and movements. Freeflyers,     the name suggests, enjoy the more spontaneous(即兴的）thrill of doing their own things.
The wildest trip for a freeflyers is falling ‘head down’. Falling ‘head first’ requires a great deal of control, which means   (travel) not only fast but also steadily. Even the    (slight) movement has a great effect on your direction.
They wear the amusing jumpsuits, strange helmets and smaller parachutes.   (actual), their parachutes are about one quarter the size of the traditional skydiver’s parachutes. It is only in the last few years    freeflying has gained any real public acceptance.

Some people use the air to sustain them while       (sit) around and feel sorry for themselves.      breathe in the air and use the energy it provides to make      magnificent life.
Opportunity is in the same way; it is everywhere. It is so freely available that we take it        granted. Yet opportunity alone is not enough to create success; it must      (seize) and acted upon in order to have value. So many people are so        (anxiety) to “get in” on a “ground floor opportunity”, as if the opportunity will do all the work. That’s       (possible).
