Conversation TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on Conversation Two.Hello, and welcome to today's program. I'm Alice.And I'm Jack. Hello.Hello, Jack. You're off on holiday tomorrow, aren't you?I am and you know, and I'm dreading it. I hate flying!Do you? I didn't know you had a phobia― and that means a strong and unreasonable fear of something.Well, I don't think this is a phobia because it isn't unreasonable. Flying thousands of feet up in the sky, you know, that's not safe!Flying is safer than you think, Jack. It's much riskier to drive or cycle to work. And, actually, risk taking is the subject of today's show!Risk means the chances of something bad happening. For example, did you know that your chance of being knocked off your bicycle and killed during a one-mile journey is the same as your chances of winning the lottery?I didn't know that.Can you guess what are the chances of either of these two things happening?I have no idea. One in a million?No, it's one in 14 million. You are as likely to win the national lottery from a single ticket as you are to be knocked off your bicycle and killed during a one-mile journey.But why are we bad at assessing risk?
