章节摘录

  Mountain Climbing  1 Mountain climbing, or ascending mountains, is popular worldwide, wherever hillsrise high enough to provide challenge. The activity‘s rewards include the physical exertion itrequires, the satisfaction of overcoming difficulties by working with others, the thrill ofreaching a summit, and the unobstructed view from a mountaintop. Exploration and researchare other reasons that people climb mountains.  2 Ascents can be either nontechnical (a hike up a path or a scramble over rocks, notrequiring the safety of a rope), or technical ( a climb up more difficult terrain that requiresthe use of rope and other specialized equipment). This article focuses on technical climbs,which involve all the elements of simple hikes but also require advanced knowledge andequipment. Making technical climbs is also known as mountaineering.  3 Since ancient times, people have viewed mountain peaks as towering objects ofmyth, spiritual inspiration, and romantic beauty. Early peoples made ascents only to huntgame, to rescue lost or strayed animals, or to gain a military advantage over an enemy.Eventually, the unknown and inaccessible ceased to be something to be feared and avoided,and the conquest of the major mountain peaks and ranges of the world began. Mountaineeringas a sport was born on August 8, 1786, with the first ascent of Mont Blanc (4,810 lit/15,782 ft), one of Europe’s tallest peaks. Since that ascent, mountain climbing has evolvedinto three related sports: alpine climbing, ice climbing, and rock climbing. These sportsrequire the same fundamental techniques.

  •   这本书一点都不好,一点实用性都没有,而且那些单词只要外星人才看得懂,句子过分的长不说,而且最重要你完全看不懂,我给我三个同事看,个个都翻译都不同的,都不知道这本书卖给谁看的?如果说市给高水平人事看,那到底要多高水平的人看啊?我两个同事都英文8级,但是都看不太懂,我们那些不是专业英文出身的人又怎么看啊?气死我啦,以前在大学里看的都不是这样的
