Those who have a strong love for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women 16 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 17 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity 18 men give their leisure.

Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man-made rules, as there are for such games as golf and football. There are rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to 19 , but it is this freedom from man-made rules 20 makes mountaineering interesting to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.

The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of 26 . This sport requires high physical and mental 27 . A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier is probably 28 his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties. But it is not 29 for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains. They may take more time than younger men but they probably climb with more skill and less 30 of effort. They certainly experience equal enjoyment. 16. A. forbidden 17. A. take risks 18. A. in that 19. A. break 20. A. what 21. A. ignored 22. A. misunderstood 23. A. in short 24. A. trip

B. willing B. take shelter B. so that B. follow B. it B. examined B. mistaken B. up to now B. cliff

C. reluctant C. make fortunes C. for which C. deal with C. that C. practiced C. disappointed C. of course C. stage

D. forced D. make peace D. to which D. set up D. which D. discussed D. disturbed D. on one hand D. step

B. come across D. come upon
