81 Climbing Mountains

Do you like climbing mountains? My friend Ted does. He has never climbed a dangerous mountain, but he has climbed some quite big and difficult ones. He began to climb rocks when he was a small boy. Ted liked it very much and he did not get very tired. The next year his father took him up some mountains in Scotland, and he was very happy.

Last summer holidays, Ted's uncle invited him to go to Switzerland. The mountains are high there. They went to Switzerland by train and had a very good holiday. They climbed several mountains. At the end of the holiday he said to Ted, "You are still very young, but you already climb well."Ted was very glad.

Now Ted wants to go to China to climb some of the very high peaks in the Himalayas, but he is still too young and also he hasn's got enough money. Perhaps one day he will become rich, and then he will go to China.

爬 山

你喜歡爬山嗎？我朋友特德喜歡。他從沒爬過危險的山，但他曾爬過一些很大很難爬的山。當他還是個小男孩的時候，他就開始攀登巖石了。特德很喜歡這個運動，一點也不感到疲倦。第二年，他父親帶他登上蘇格蘭的一些山，他非常開心。

去年暑假，特德的叔叔邀請他去瑞士。那里的山很高。他們乘火車去了瑞士，過了一個非常愉快的假期。他們爬了幾座山。在假期結束時，叔叔對特德說：“你還很年輕，但你已經爬得很好了。”特德聽了很高興。

現在，特德想去中國，爬上喜瑪拉雅山最高的山峰，但他年紀還太小，而且沒有足夠的錢。也許有一天他會變得富有，然后他就可以去中國了。
