听力原文：M: My brother Steve has just done a course at the Queen's Park Summer School.

W: Really! What made him decide to do that？

M: Well, for one thing, some boys in his class decided to do it and they dared him to go with them!

W: You mean that he did not really want to go？

M: I think he wanted to go but I think he was also a little frightened. Of course, now that he's done it, he's very pleased with himself and he's always talking about it.

W: So he enjoyed it, didn't he？

M: Not exactly. I think he's enjoying the feeling of having done it more than he enjoyed actually doing it.

W: What sort of things did he do？

M: Oh, all sorts of open-air activities: hiking, camping, canoeing. One thing he had to do was to capsize a canoe and then right it again without getting out. He said the water was very cold but that he hardly noticed it at the time.

W: Why not？

M: He was too busy righting the canoe!

W: That doesn't sound very comfortable at this time of the year.

M: That's what I said when he told me. On another occasion he had to spend a day and a night by himself in the open country.

W: Was he frightened？

M: He was at first, apparently, but then he got used to it.

W: It seems to me that the course did him a lot of good. ! expect it's made him more self-reliant.

M: That's what he says -- and now he wants me to go!

What conclusion can we draw about Steve before he went to the summer school？
