請教，take a chance 跟 take a risk 有何區別？

在表示冒險時使用上有何區別？

>>>>>

A chance is the unknown and unpredictable element; and a risk is the possibility of suffering harm or loss.

The worst case result of taking a chance may be positive, neutral or negative; but that of taking a risk is mostly negative.

In your context, “to take a risk” is more suitable, although you can use either.
