第一段的中心词是 damage,暗示乞力马扎罗山的环 境已经被污染;第二段的中心词是 skeptical,说明作者对 于既有的观点持怀疑态度;第三段的中心词是 change,说 明作者亲自登山体验后发现该山的环境已经有了很大的改观;第四段的中心词是 experience,暗示本段主要讲述作者在登山过程中的体验,亲身经历了五种生态系统;第五段的中心词是 deserve its reputation,作者明确给出结论“I found the opposite to be true.”,说明作者认为该山在当地机构的努力治理下已经发生了很大的变化,并不像人 们认为的那样。我们可以把文章进一步划分为三个部分:篇首——乞力马扎罗山的污染问题;篇中——对上述问题提出质疑,并进行验证、说明;篇尾——得出结论。
