【分析解答题】Most young people enjoy physical activities, walking, cycling, football, or mountaineering. 
These who have a passion  26  climbing high and difficult mountains are often  27   with astonishment. Why are men and women  28  to suffer cold and hardship, and to   29  on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activities  30   which men give their leisure.
There are no man-made rules, as there are for  31   as golf and football.

There are, in fact, no :matches”   37   “teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may   38   , obviously, there is teamwork.
A mountain climber knows that he may have to fight with natural  39   that ate stronger and more powerful than man. His sport requires high mental and   40    qualities.
A mountain climber   41   to improve on skill year after year. A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions   42  in their early twenties. But it is not  43   for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more   44   than younger men, but they probably climb more skill and less   45   of effort, and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.
