Para. 1 Facts and dangers
One of the world's most dangerous sports is mountain climbing, and one of the most famous places for this is the Himalayas. The Himalayas run along the southwestern part of China. Of all the mountains, Qomolangma rises the highest and is the most famous. It is 8848.86 meters high and so is very dangerous to climb. Thick clouds cover the top and snow can fall very hard. Even more serious difficulties include freezing weather conditions and heavy storms. It is also very hard to take in air as you get near the top.

1953年5月29日,新西兰登山家艾德蒙·希拉里和尼泊尔向导丹增·诺盖第一次从南坡登顶珠峰,完成了人类首次珠峰登顶,这一次成功登顶,使尼泊尔认为对珠峰有了完整的拥有权。
中国提出将珠峰一分为二,南面属尼泊尔,北面属中国。但尼泊尔却以“贵国从未爬上过北坡”为由,意图独占珠峰。
为了捍卫国家领土主权和民族尊严,1960年,在党和国家的大力支持下,肩负着全国人民的热切期盼,成立仅4年的中国登山队决定挑战这座世界最高峰,从被登山界认为是“死亡之路”,连飞鸟都无法飞过的北坡出发。
1960 – The first Chinese team reached the top.
They reached the top of Qomolangma on May 25th,1960.
This was the first time to the world’s highest peak from the north slope in human history. They set out from the beginning of March 25th, it took them only two months to reach the top.
在七十年代的日本,人们普遍认为“男主外,女主内”才是“正常”的家庭结构。田部井淳子对珠峰的野心引起了很多非议。然而,在田部井淳子的心中,攀登珠峰的想法从来没有因为他人的闲言碎语而动摇过。
1975 – Junko Tabei from Japan was the first woman to reach the top.
Junko Tabei finally reached the summit on May 16, 1975, becoming
the first woman to do so at the age of 35. She was finally on the top
of the world and didn’t have to take another step.
