Only one in five Brits believe they are really living life to the full, according to a new study.
一项新研究显示，仅五分之一英国人认为自己确实充分享受了生活。
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.
研究人员发现，虽然一半英国人声称自己对生活充满热情，但实际上，大多数人期待在生活中体验更多刺激。
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.
在调查了近2000名英国成年人的生活方式和愿望后，该调查宣布了37项被认为最能够丰富生活的终极经历，其中包括乘坐私人飞机和参加豪华游艇派对。
Overall the research showed that as a nation we have daring aspirations, with 44 per cent of us claiming to be ‘adventurous’.
总的来说，该调查显示英国人有着十分大胆的愿望，44%的人称自己勇于冒险。
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.
而无法实现梦想最大的托辞是没有时间、没有钱或者没有勇气接受新鲜刺激的挑战。24%的被调查者说冒险是遥不可及的。
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，如果人生有机会重来，他们会更勇敢地去享乐和冒险。
A plucky one in seven said they embarked on adventures as often as possible, but one in four admitted they never try anything exciting.

More than half of those who took part in the study said they were envious of people who seemingly live exciting lives.
被调查者中，超过一半的人说他们很羡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.
数据也显示，大部分人会在32岁的时候重新审视和评价我们的生活。
Living life to the full includes learning to survive in the wild, skinny dipping, travelling to watch aWorld Cup Final and being an extra in a film, according to the survey.
调查中，人们认为充分享受生活包括学习野外生存技能、裸泳、长途跋涉去看一场世界杯决赛，以及在电影里客串一把。
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.
开车穿越美国66号公路、登上帝国大厦顶楼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.
