To complete the text appropriately by matching items A-G to the gaps 1-6, consider the context provided before and after each gap:

1. The first gap follows the mention of "skydiving or white-water rafting" and precedes the phrase "Today we live in the 'extreme' sport world." The best match here would be:

   • E because of the adrenaline rush they get from them This fits well as it explains why people enjoy these extreme sports.

2. The second gap follows the statement about living in an "extreme" sport world and is about seeking something. The best fit would be:

   • F after a hard day at the office This suggests that people seek adventure as a way to unwind after work.

3. The third gap is after mentioning gardening or fishing as relaxing activities. The best choice here would be:

   • B and they bring many rewards This emphasizes the positive outcomes of engaging in these quieter, relaxing activities.

4. The fourth gap follows the mention of art and sculpture as forms of self-expression. The suitable choice would be:

   • F after a hard day at the office This implies that these activities are a form of relaxation and self-expression after a busy day, although this item has been used already and might not be the best fit. Another possible fit isn't immediately clear from the provided options, so this might be an oversight or misunderstanding in the quiz setup or the options provided.

5. The fifth gap discusses shy, reserved types preferring to watch sports from home. A good match would be:

   • C because some people would rather go snowboarding This option introduces an alternative preference which aligns with the context of reserved individuals choosing different activities.

6. The sixth gap is about pastimes linked to technology. The suitable match here would be:

   • D where they can be in direct contact with people This contrasts online activities with those that involve direct social interaction like going to the cinema or exhibitions.

1. E
2. F
