The idea of climbing Mt.Qomolangma disgusted me. The mountain came to represent the

opposite of everything that I loved and respected about climbing. What had once been the final

mountain climbing goal became the focus of a commercial guiding industry. Over the years, the

crowds at Base Camp grew, leaving behind tons of trash. Whenever I was asked whether. I’d climb

Mt.Qomolangma, my answer was always the same: not interested.

That was probably where my personal Mt. Qomolangma story would have ended, were it not

for an old friend Thom Pollard and his obsession (迷恋) with one of the greatest mysteries. In 1999,

he began to explore and found the remains of George Mallory, the celebrated British climber who

disappeared while he was attempting to be the first to climb Mt. Qomolangma. But Mallory’s

partner, Sandy Irvine, and the camera he had likely carried, were not found. The mountain climbing

world has been wondering whether they might have reached the top in 1924.

Pollard’s story moved me. I began to pack for the climb and expected that our advanced

equipment would make it manageable, perhaps easy. I was wrong. On the highest point on the

planet, I was more tired than I’d ever been in any climbing. Along the way, I continuously tipped

my hat, not just to Mallory and Irvine but to anyone who has the drive to push himself or herself up

this route. My search was in vain, but I began to reconsider Mt. Qomolangma.

I witnessed many climbers, who were much more than just self-centered tourists. We shared

route information, weather forecasts, and family photos — all united around a common goal.

I went to Mt. Qomolangma to seek Irvine. But in the end, I found something more difficult to

get: the spirit that Irvine and Mallory shared. It was hiding in plain sight, right where it has always

been: inside the brave souls who risk so much to follow in storied adventurers’ footsteps up Mt.

Qomolangma.

24. Why did the author once hate climbing Mt. Qomolangma?

A. Because the mountain was overcrowded.

B. Because his original climbing goal changed.

C. Because climbing it became a profit-driven industry.

D. Because he had to brave the elements on the mountain.

25. What motivated the author to climb Mt. Qomolangma later?

A. The influence of Thom Pollard.

B. The results of the previous climbing.

C. The development of advanced equipment.

D. The spirit of George Mallory and Sandy Irvine.

26. What does the underlined phrase “tipped my hat” in paragraph 3 mean?

A. Relieved my tiredness. B. Showed my respect.

C. Expressed my gratitude. D. Proved my determination.

27. What message does the passage mainly convey?

A. The search for missing adventurers holds great value.

B. Modern climbing lacks respect for the natural environment.

C. Spirits of the climbers of Mt. Qomolangma are worth respect.

D. Experienced climbers are qualified to conquer Mt. Qomolangma.

A casual walk along the Beijing Central Axis, connecting the Drum Tower and the impressive

Forbidden City — this was Zhao’s first city-walking journey in the spring of last year. Since then,

the 21-year-old student from Beijing Foreign Studies University has remained a city-walk fan,

believing it to be the best way to “rediscover a city”.

“I visited Beijing before the start of my college life here, and it was a typical package tour

during which going to scenic spots and taking photos was a big thing. The crowded tourist

attractions gave me the impression that Beijing was a noisy place,” Zhao said.

With the increasing variety of travel choices, traditional group tours no longer satisfy people

who are looking for a more personal and different travel experience and hoping to explore every

part of the city in a more engaging way.

Compared with tightly scheduled routes and picture-taking tours, city-walking focuses on free,

casual experiences. The trending city-walk culture, which encourages experiencing urban life with

no transportation means except one’s legs and feet, has also made splashes on various social media

platforms.

On the video-sharing app Douyin, the Chinese version of Tik-Tok, a recent video about

citywalk routes in Guangzhou, Guangdong province, has gained more than 171,000 likes, with

72,000 viewers of all ages adding the video to their favorites. According to a report from

lifestyle-sharing platform Xiaohongshu, in the first half of this year, searches about city-walks

increased 30 times from the previous year. “The route offers a glimpse into the culture and

landscape in different historical stages, as well as its beautiful natural scenery,” it said.

Following his experience in Beijing, Zhao has also explored Wuhan in Hubei province,

Hangzhou in Zhejiang province and other cities through city-walking tours. “City-walking is all

about doing whatever you want in your own exploration of a city, and it is actually the kind of

slow-paced, low-carbon lifestyle that I relate to so much,” he said.

28. Why do Zhao call city-walking the best way to “rediscover a city”?

A. The variety of travel choices is limited.

B. Common tour wastes much time in taking pictures.

C. Traditional group tour totally satisfies people’s need.

D. It is a more enjoyable and personal way to explore the city.

29. What do we know about city-walk culture?

A. It shows historical moments in Xiaohongshu.

B. It promotes exploring the city without transportation.

C. It offers practical travel tips through social media platforms.

D. It refers to a 30-minute walk on the video-sharing app Douyin.

30. What can we learn in the paragraph 5?

A. City-walk is only loved by young people.

B. City-walk recommends the shortest route.

C. City-walk has gained popularity on the Internet.

D. City-walk has both advantages and disadvantages.
