35．（10分）I grew up in the countryside of Poland.It's an area where skiing is popular，but my family was poor.I couldn't afford to ride the ski lift，so I used to hike up with the skis on my back.It turned out that this was good practice.
K2 is nicknamed"savage（野蛮的）mountain".You hear tragic stories：For every four people who reach the summit，one dies.I was too afraid to even think about skiing down it.Even the best ski mountaineers thought it impossible.
But that changed after a training expedition（考察）to Broad Peak.I got a clear look at K2's extremely large face，and it inspired me.Over time，by 2017，I didn't feel the fear anymore.I began preparations.
Why attempt such a feat（壮举）？I love nature，and I love setting goals.To be the first to do it just adds to the challenge.Fear is an important part of life，I had to stop being afraid.
At the base camp，I felt calm and prepared.There were no emotions or doubts﹣﹣I just knew I could do it.But there were challenges.At the third base camp，7，000 meters up，and I decided to proceed.In total，it took about three days to reach the summit.
For many climbers，getting to the peak of K2 would be the defining moment of their lives.For me，it was where the real challenge began.Skiing down a mountain demands patience and endurance（耐力）.
The most dangerous part was the Messner Traverse.It's pure ice，up to a 75﹣degree angle in places，with drops on either side.You need to keep your turns and movements smooth and confident.No one had challenged it before
In total，going down the mountain took about seven hours.When I finally skied into camp，I was too tired to stand up.
I am so proud of what I achieved.No one thought it could be done.It taught me the value of patience and that nobody else can make your dreams come true.

C.get up
D.go back

35．（10分）I grew up in the countryside of Poland.It's an area where skiing is popular，but my family was poor.I couldn't afford to ride the ski lift，so I used to hike up with the skis on my back.It turned out that this was good practice.
K2 is nicknamed"savage（野蛮的）mountain".You hear tragic stories：For every four people who reach the summit，one dies.I was too afraid to even think about skiing down it.Even the best ski mountaineers thought it impossible.
But that changed after a training expedition（考察）to Broad Peak.I got a clear look at K2's extremely large face，and it inspired me.Over time，by 2017，I didn't feel the fear anymore.I began preparations.
Why attempt such a feat（壮举）？I love nature，and I love setting goals.To be the first to do it just adds to the challenge.Fear is an important part of life，I had to stop being afraid.
At the base camp，I felt calm and prepared.There were no emotions or doubts﹣﹣I just knew I could do it.But there were challenges.At the third base camp，7，000 meters up，and I decided to proceed.In total，it took about three days to reach the summit.
For many climbers，getting to the peak of K2 would be the defining moment of their lives.For me，it was where the real challenge began.Skiing down a mountain demands patience and endurance（耐力）.
The most dangerous part was the Messner Traverse.It's pure ice，up to a 75﹣degree angle in places，with drops on either side.You need to keep your turns and movements smooth and confident.No one had challenged it before
In total，going down the mountain took about seven hours.When I finally skied into camp，I was too tired to stand up.
I am so proud of what I achieved.No one thought it could be done.It taught me the value of patience and that nobody else can make your dreams come true.
