One deals with the adventure in a real life situation and the other one is about the adventure that was mentally experienced. In the story, "We Are Not Afraid to Die", the characters take a hazardous sea voyage, to overcome the odds and survive. Whatever the dangers were, they were very real. In the story, The Adventure", the protagonist does not embark upon an adventurous journey. His collision with the truck triggers his mind to travel to a world, which is different from the world that he lives in.
