话题经典小故事 ——五岁男孩与父母一起完成阿巴拉契亚小径
Five-Year-Old Boy Completes Appalachian Trail With Parents
American Harvey Sutton went to his first day of school last week. The 5-year-old boy had a lot to tell his teacher and classmates about his summer.
That is because Harvey just finished walking the entire length of the Appalachian Trail, one of the longest footpaths in the world. The 3,500-kilometer-long trail passes through 14 states in the eastern United States.
五岁男孩与父母一起完成阿巴拉契亚小径
美国人哈维·萨顿(Harvey Sutton)上周去了他的第一天上学。这个 5 岁的男孩有很多关于他的夏天的事情要告诉他的老师和同学。
那是因为哈维刚刚走完了阿巴拉契亚小径的整个长度,这是世界上最长的人行道之一。这条 3,500 公里长的步道经过美国东部的 14 个州。
*Appalachian Trail 美国著名徒步旅行的步道
Harvey is one of the youngest people ever to walk the trail. He and his parents completed the trip in 209 days.
It was hard work. But it was also fun. Harvey got to watch wild animals like frogs and lizards. He climbed over tall rocks. And he got to eat Skittles, a colorful sweet treat, to give him energy.
哈维是有史以来最年轻的走这条路的人之一。他和他的父母在209天内完成了这次旅行。
这是一项艰苦的工作。但这也很有趣。哈维看到了青蛙和蜥蜴等野生动物。他爬过高高的岩石。为了给他自己补充能量,他吃了彩虹糖—一种五颜六色的甜点。
*lizard n. 蜥蜴
*Skittles n. 彩虹糖
“The rock scrambles were really fun and hard. We were not bored,” Harvey said from his home in Virginia, where he lives with his parents, Josh and Cassie Sutton.
岩石攀爬真的很有趣,也很辛苦。我们并不感到无聊,“哈维在弗吉尼亚州的家中说,他与父母乔希和卡西萨顿住在那。
*scramble n. 攀爬
His parents tried hard to keep their little boy happy and excited. In fact, they said, they had little time to pay attention to their own physical pain from walking so many kilometers.
“It gave us a bond and a strength that we hadn’t realized before,” Cassie Sutton said.
他的父母努力让他们的小儿子保持快乐和兴奋。事实上,他们说,他们几乎没有时间去关注自己走了这么多公里的身体疼痛。
“它给了我们一种纽带和力量,这是我们以前没有意识到的,”卡西·萨顿说。
*bond n. 纽带
Other young children have hiked the trail, which starts at Springer Mountain, Georgia and ends atop Maine’s Mount Katahdin. Even some babies have travelled the length with their parents.
其他年幼的孩子也参加了这条小径,这条小径从佐治亚州的斯普林格山开始,到缅因州的卡塔丁山顶结束。甚至有些婴儿也与父母一起走了这段路。
*hike v. 徒步
Harvey was 4 years old when he and his parents began their walk in January. He turned 5 before the family completed the trip earlier this month in Maine.
He is several months younger than “Buddy Backpacker,” a boy who once held the record for youngest person to complete the trail.
But the youngest of all may be Juniper Netteberg. The little girl finished the trail at age four with her parents and three siblings last October.
哈维4岁时,他和他的父母在一月份开始步行。在家人本月早些时候在缅因州完成旅行之前,他已经5岁了。
他比“巴迪背包客”小几个月,这个男孩曾经保持着最年轻的完成这条路的记录。
但最年轻的可能是Juniper Netteberg。去年10月,这个小女孩在四岁时与父母和三个兄弟姐妹一起完成了这条小径。
*sibling n. (亲)兄弟姐妹
It may seem like an extreme activity for a child, but Dr. Laura Blaisdell sees no harm. She is a children’s doctor and medical adviser to the American Camp Association.
Dr. Blaisdell said children are strong enough for the experience if parents attend to their child’s usual social and emotional development.
Harvey’s parents had been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. Doing the Appalachian Trail seemed like a good next step.
It was a mostly smooth experience, the family reported. They slept in a tent, waking at 5:30 in the morning and walking all day. Their daily life was simple.
对于孩子来说,这似乎是一项极端的活动,但劳拉·布莱斯德尔博士认为没有坏处。她是一名儿童医生,也是美国营地协会的医疗顾问。
布莱斯德尔博士说,如果父母关注孩子通常的社交和情感发展,孩子们就足够强大,能够适应这种体验。
哈维的父母从哈维两岁起就和他一起徒步旅行。走阿巴拉契亚小径似乎是一个很好的下一步。
家人报告说,这是一次基本顺利的经历。他们睡在帐篷里,早上5:30醒来,走了一整天。他们的日常生活很简单。
Josh Sutton said meeting and talking with other hikers along the way prevented boredom. They started calling his son “Little Man,” early on the trip. Harvey’s new name spread quickly among hikers all along the Appalachian Trail.
Karl Donus Sakas hiked with the family from Pennsylvania to the end of the trail in Maine. He helped the family keep Harvey interested by creating a treasure hunt with maps. Little Man found hidden playthings and brightly lit sticks along the trail.
乔什·萨顿(Josh Sutton)说,与沿途的其他徒步旅行者会面和交谈可以防止无聊。在旅行的早期,他们开始称他的儿子为“小人”。哈维的新名字迅速在阿巴拉契亚小径沿线的徒步旅行者中传播开来。
卡尔·多纳斯·萨卡斯(Karl Donus Sakas)与家人从宾夕法尼亚州徒步到缅因州的小径尽头。他通过用地图创建寻宝活动来帮助家人保持对哈维的兴趣。小曼在小径上发现了隐藏的玩具和亮着灯火的木棍。
*treasure hunt 寻宝之旅
Some other hikers gave Little Man toys, too, including a pet rock and Hot Wheels cars. At a Dollar General store, Harvey bought himself a calculator to keep track of all of the kilometers he had walked.
The Sutton family completed the hike August 9 atop Mount Katahdin in Maine. Now it is off to school for Little Man and back to work for his parents.
其他一些徒步旅行者也给了小人玩具,包括宠物岩石和风火轮汽车。在Dollar General的一家商店里,哈维给自己买了一个计算器,用来记录他走过的所有公里数。
萨顿一家于8月9日在缅因州的卡塔丁山顶完成了徒步旅行。现在,小曼要去上学,回去为父母工作。
*atop prep. 在...顶上
Harvey’s trip earned praise from another hiker, Dale “Greybeard” Sanders. He is the oldest person to hike the trail, which he did at age 82.
“It’s going to change his life forever, and his parents’ life, too. The kid went through some hardships, but don’t we all? Hardships make us stronger,” said Sanders, now 86. “That kid is going to smile through life.”
哈维的旅行赢得了另一位徒步旅行者戴尔·桑德斯(Dale “Greybeard” Sanders)的称赞。他是这条小径上最年长的徒步旅行者,他在 82 岁时做到了。
“这将永远改变他的生活,也改变他父母的生活。这个孩子经历了一些困难,但我们不是都一样吗?困难让我们更强大,“现年86岁的桑德斯说。“那个孩子会一直微笑着度过一生。”

时文阅读 01—新的观光方式---“美食旅游”
How do you usually decide where to go on vacation? Will you decide where to travel because of the local landmarks(地标)? 1 Recently, a new way of traveling-“food tourism" has become popular.
“Food tourism” means that people travel to new places to try the local food. 2 For example, you can try street food, visit food markets, or eat at local restaurants. And a 2023survey from Hello Fresh found that 74% of Americans who have traveled in the last five years went for the food. The top four countries that Americans said they'd want to visit for their food are Italy, France, Spain, and Japan.
3 A 2022 survey by Eurostar asked 2,000people in Britain what their main reason was for choosing where to go on vacation. 61% of people said “the food" and 41% of people said they would travel hundreds of kilometers to find the perfect meal. Some people even like to take part in the cooking themselves. 4
The survey also found that British people like to try new and different foods when they are traveling. Nearly half of people believe that they are more adventurous(大胆的)with what they eat when they are away from home. 5 Another survey from 2023 said that Italy, Spain and France are the top three European countries that they'd like to choose.
A. You can try the food in different ways.
B. After all, food tourism is for everyone.
C. About the food, they have their favorite countries to go to.
D. Or do you choose where to go according to the food?
E. Food is an important part of vacations for British people, too.
F. 46% of people said they have taken part in cooking lessons when traveling.

Five-Year-Old Boy Completes Appalachian Trail With Parents
American Harvey Sutton went to his first day of school last week. The 5-year-old boy had a lot to tell his teacher and classmates about his summer.
That is because Harvey just finished walking the entire length of the Appalachian Trail, one of the longest footpaths in the world. The 3,500-kilometer-long trail passes through 14 states in the eastern United States.
五岁男孩与父母一起完成阿巴拉契亚小径
美国人哈维·萨顿(Harvey Sutton)上周去了他的第一天上学。这个 5 岁的男孩有很多关于他的夏天的事情要告诉他的老师和同学。
那是因为哈维刚刚走完了阿巴拉契亚小径的整个长度,这是世界上最长的人行道之一。这条 3,500 公里长的步道经过美国东部的 14 个州。
*Appalachian Trail 美国著名徒步旅行的步道
Harvey is one of the youngest people ever to walk the trail. He and his parents completed the trip in 209 days.
It was hard work. But it was also fun. Harvey got to watch wild animals like frogs and lizards. He climbed over tall rocks. And he got to eat Skittles, a colorful sweet treat, to give him energy.
哈维是有史以来最年轻的走这条路的人之一。他和他的父母在209天内完成了这次旅行。
这是一项艰苦的工作。但这也很有趣。哈维看到了青蛙和蜥蜴等野生动物。他爬过高高的岩石。为了给他自己补充能量,他吃了彩虹糖—一种五颜六色的甜点。
*lizard n. 蜥蜴
*Skittles n. 彩虹糖
“The rock scrambles were really fun and hard. We were not bored,” Harvey said from his home in Virginia, where he lives with his parents, Josh and Cassie Sutton.
岩石攀爬真的很有趣,也很辛苦。我们并不感到无聊,“哈维在弗吉尼亚州的家中说,他与父母乔希和卡西萨顿住在那。
*scramble n. 攀爬
His parents tried hard to keep their little boy happy and excited. In fact, they said, they had little time to pay attention to their own physical pain from walking so many kilometers.
“It gave us a bond and a strength that we hadn’t realized before,” Cassie Sutton said.
他的父母努力让他们的小儿子保持快乐和兴奋。事实上,他们说,他们几乎没有时间去关注自己走了这么多公里的身体疼痛。
“它给了我们一种纽带和力量,这是我们以前没有意识到的,”卡西·萨顿说。
*bond n. 纽带
Other young children have hiked the trail, which starts at Springer Mountain, Georgia and ends atop Maine’s Mount Katahdin. Even some babies have travelled the length with their parents.
其他年幼的孩子也参加了这条小径,这条小径从佐治亚州的斯普林格山开始,到缅因州的卡塔丁山顶结束。甚至有些婴儿也与父母一起走了这段路。
*hike v. 徒步
Harvey was 4 years old when he and his parents began their walk in January. He turned 5 before the family completed the trip earlier this month in Maine.
He is several months younger than “Buddy Backpacker,” a boy who once held the record for youngest person to complete the trail.
But the youngest of all may be Juniper Netteberg. The little girl finished the trail at age four with her parents and three siblings last October.
哈维4岁时,他和他的父母在一月份开始步行。在家人本月早些时候在缅因州完成旅行之前,他已经5岁了。
他比“巴迪背包客”小几个月,这个男孩曾经保持着最年轻的完成这条路的记录。
但最年轻的可能是Juniper Netteberg。去年10月,这个小女孩在四岁时与父母和三个兄弟姐妹一起完成了这条小径。
*sibling n. (亲)兄弟姐妹
It may seem like an extreme activity for a child, but Dr. Laura Blaisdell sees no harm. She is a children’s doctor and medical adviser to the American Camp Association.
Dr. Blaisdell said children are strong enough for the experience if parents attend to their child’s usual social and emotional development.
Harvey’s parents had been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. Doing the Appalachian Trail seemed like a good next step.
It was a mostly smooth experience, the family reported. They slept in a tent, waking at 5:30 in the morning and walking all day. Their daily life was simple.
对于孩子来说,这似乎是一项极端的活动,但劳拉·布莱斯德尔博士认为没有坏处。她是一名儿童医生,也是美国营地协会的医疗顾问。
布莱斯德尔博士说,如果父母关注孩子通常的社交和情感发展,孩子们就足够强大,能够适应这种体验。
哈维的父母从哈维两岁起就和他一起徒步旅行。走阿巴拉契亚小径似乎是一个很好的下一步。
家人报告说,这是一次基本顺利的经历。他们睡在帐篷里,早上5:30醒来,走了一整天。他们的日常生活很简单。
Josh Sutton said meeting and talking with other hikers along the way prevented boredom. They started calling his son “Little Man,” early on the trip. Harvey’s new name spread quickly among hikers all along the Appalachian Trail.
Karl Donus Sakas hiked with the family from Pennsylvania to the end of the trail in Maine. He helped the family keep Harvey interested by creating a treasure hunt with maps. Little Man found hidden playthings and brightly lit sticks along the trail.
乔什·萨顿(Josh Sutton)说,与沿途的其他徒步旅行者会面和交谈可以防止无聊。在旅行的早期,他们开始称他的儿子为“小人”。哈维的新名字迅速在阿巴拉契亚小径沿线的徒步旅行者中传播开来。
卡尔·多纳斯·萨卡斯(Karl Donus Sakas)与家人从宾夕法尼亚州徒步到缅因州的小径尽头。他通过用地图创建寻宝活动来帮助家人保持对哈维的兴趣。小曼在小径上发现了隐藏的玩具和亮着灯火的木棍。
*treasure hunt 寻宝之旅
Some other hikers gave Little Man toys, too, including a pet rock and Hot Wheels cars. At a Dollar General store, Harvey bought himself a calculator to keep track of all of the kilometers he had walked.
The Sutton family completed the hike August 9 atop Mount Katahdin in Maine. Now it is off to school for Little Man and back to work for his parents.
其他一些徒步旅行者也给了小人玩具,包括宠物岩石和风火轮汽车。在Dollar General的一家商店里,哈维给自己买了一个计算器,用来记录他走过的所有公里数。
萨顿一家于8月9日在缅因州的卡塔丁山顶完成了徒步旅行。现在,小曼要去上学,回去为父母工作。
*atop prep. 在...顶上
Harvey’s trip earned praise from another hiker, Dale “Greybeard” Sanders. He is the oldest person to hike the trail, which he did at age 82.
“It’s going to change his life forever, and his parents’ life, too. The kid went through some hardships, but don’t we all? Hardships make us stronger,” said Sanders, now 86. “That kid is going to smile through life.”
哈维的旅行赢得了另一位徒步旅行者戴尔·桑德斯(Dale “Greybeard” Sanders)的称赞。他是这条小径上最年长的徒步旅行者,他在 82 岁时做到了。
“这将永远改变他的生活,也改变他父母的生活。这个孩子经历了一些困难,但我们不是都一样吗?困难让我们更强大,“现年86岁的桑德斯说。“那个孩子会一直微笑着度过一生。”

时文阅读 01—新的观光方式---“美食旅游”
How do you usually decide where to go on vacation? Will you decide where to travel because of the local landmarks(地标)? 1 Recently, a new way of traveling-“food tourism" has become popular.
“Food tourism” means that people travel to new places to try the local food. 2 For example, you can try street food, visit food markets, or eat at local restaurants. And a 2023survey from Hello Fresh found that 74% of Americans who have traveled in the last five years went for the food. The top four countries that Americans said they'd want to visit for their food are Italy, France, Spain, and Japan.
3 A 2022 survey by Eurostar asked 2,000people in Britain what their main reason was for choosing where to go on vacation. 61% of people said “the food" and 41% of people said they would travel hundreds of kilometers to find the perfect meal. Some people even like to take part in the cooking themselves. 4
The survey also found that British people like to try new and different foods when they are traveling. Nearly half of people believe that they are more adventurous(大胆的)with what they eat when they are away from home. 5 Another survey from 2023 said that Italy, Spain and France are the top three European countries that they'd like to choose.
A. You can try the food in different ways.
B. After all, food tourism is for everyone.
C. About the food, they have their favorite countries to go to.
D. Or do you choose where to go according to the food?
E. Food is an important part of vacations for British people, too.
F. 46% of people said they have taken part in cooking lessons when traveling.

译文:HelloFresh在2023年的一项调查发现,在过去五年中,74%的美国人是为了美食而去旅行的。
分析:本句是一个复合句。that 74%of Americans...for the food是 that 引导的宾语从句,作found的宾语;在这个宾语从句中,who引导定语从句,修饰先行词Americans。
参考答案:
近年来,“美食旅游”逐渐成为一种新的旅行方式。根据调查显示,越来越多的人出去旅游是为了当地的美食。
1.D 空前一句提到因为当地的地标而决定去哪里旅行;再结合空后一句可知,最近,“美食旅游”开始流行起来。由此可推知,空处内容应与美食和旅行有关,故D项“或者你会根据美食选择去哪里吗?”可承上启下,符合语境。
2.A 空前一句解释了“美食旅游”的概念;空后一句举例说明“美食旅游”的各种形式,比如尝试街头小吃、参观食品市场或在当地餐馆吃饭。由此可推知,空处内容应与“美食旅游”的不同方式有关,故A项“你可以通过不同的方式品尝美食”可引出下文,符合语境。
3.E 根据第二段内容可知,一项调查发现,在过去五年中,有74%的美国人是为了美食去旅行的;再结合空后内容可知,在Eurostar的调查中,61%的英国人说“美食”是他们选择去哪里度假的主要原因。由此可推知,空处内容应指出美食对英国人的重要性,故E项“对于英国人来说,美食也是假期的重要组成部分”可承上启下,符合语境。
4.F 根据空前一句可知,有些人甚至喜欢亲自参与烹饪,故F项“46%的人表示他们在旅行时参加过烹饪课程”可承接上文,符合语境。
5.C 空后一句提到2023年的另一项调查显示,意大利、西班牙和法国是英国人最想选择的三个欧洲国家。由此可推知,空处内容应与英国人喜欢去哪些国家吃东西有关,故C项“关于美食,他们有自己最想去的国家”可引出下文,符合语境。
译文
你通常如何决定去哪里度假?你会因为当地的地标而决定去哪里旅游吗?或者你会根据美食选择去哪里吗?最近,一种新的旅游方式--“美食旅游”开始流行起来。
所谓“美食旅游”,就是人们到新的地方去品尝当地的美食。你可以通过不同的方式品尝美食。例如,你可以尝试街头小吃、参观食品市场或在当地餐馆吃饭。HelloFresh在2023年的一项调查发现,在过去的五年中,74%的美国人是为了品尝美食去旅行的。美国人表示,他们最想去的四个国家是意大利、法国、西班牙和日本。
对于英国人来说,美食也是假期的重要组成部分。2022年Eurostar的一项调查询问了2000名英国人,问他们选择去哪里度假的主要原因是什么。61%的人说是“美食”,41%的人说他们会旅行数百千米去寻找完美的一餐。有些人甚至喜欢亲自下厨。46%的人表示他们在旅行时参加过烹饪课程。
调查还发现,英国人在旅行时喜欢尝试新的、不同的食物。近一半的人认为,离家在外时,他们在饮食方面更喜欢冒险。关于美食,他们有自己最想去的国家。2023年的另一项调查显示,意大利、西班牙和法国是他们最想选择的三个欧洲国家。

7.her 他对Ivy和她的家人表达了感谢。根据空后的family可知,此处应填she的形容词性物主代词her。
8.like 此处表示“我真的相信,人类的关心和爱是因为有像 Sarah Ivy这样的热心人才存在”。like“像......一样”,符合语境。
9.was 2023年夏天Davis 又重新骑上了他的自行车。根据时间状语“in the summer of 2023”可知,此处时态应用一般过去时;又因为句子主语为第三人称单数,故填was。
10.first 2023年8月,Davis第一次见到了Ivy的家人。for the first time“第一次;首次”为固定短语,故填first。

参考答案:
An Unforgettable Trip
Nowadays, more and more people like going for a trip or vacation. I had an unforgettable trip last winter vacation when I went to Hainan Island with my parents. It took us three hours to get there by plane. We stayed in a hotel which was near a beautiful beach. We swam in the sea and enjoyed bright sunshine, fresh air and beautiful scenery. The sky was as blue as the sea. And we had seafood in the evening. It was so delicious that we bought some when we left. I bought many gifts for my friends, which were nice and cheap.
What a wonderful trip we had! We really want to visit there again in the future.

话题经典小故事 ——远足阿巴拉契亚小径
What are the challenges and rewards of hiking the Appalachian Trail?
远足阿巴拉契亚小径的挑战和回报是什么?
Introduction
My name is Ben. In 2015 , I decided it was time to fulfill my childhood dream and go on a very long walk-along the Appalachian Trail , or " A T "The A.T. connects the Appalachian Mountains , in the eastern United States ,along their highest points . Completed in1937. It was and still is the world’s longest hiking-only footpath. The A.T. begin in Georgia and travels over 2,000 miles (3,000 km) north. It goes through fourteen U.S. states and ends in Maine.
介绍
我叫本。2015年,我决定是时候实现儿时的梦想了,沿着阿巴拉契亚山脉(Appalachian Trail)或“A T”进行一次很长的步行。1937年完成。它曾经是,现在仍然是世界上最长的徒步步道。A.T.起源于格鲁吉亚,向北行驶了2000英里(3000公里)。它经过美国14个州,终点在缅因州。
Hiking an entire long-distance trail called thru-hiking. Thousands of people try to complete an A.T. thru-hike each year, but hundred, like me succeed. Most thru-hikers begin in spring and hike north. As I did. Since it's already warm down south.
Fun Facts about the Appalachian Trail
Length: 2 190 miles (3, 524 km)
Steps on an A T. thru-hike: Around five million
Highest point: Cling man’s Dome, North Carolina -Tennessee border, 6,643 feet (2, 025 m) above sea level
Elevation gain and loss: Equal to hiking Mount Everest from sea level and back-sixteen times!
First and oldest thru-hiker: Earl V. Shaffer, first in 1948 at thirty years old and again in 1998 at eighty years old
Record for fastest A T thru-hike: 45 days, 22 hours, 38 minutes.
Preparation Is Key
I spent several months preparing for my thru-hike. I practiced hiking while wearing my heavy pack, even in poor weather. I got a job at an outdoor store to learn about hiking gear and tried to save money. I took my first step on April 4, 2016, from Springer Mountain, Georgia. The next few days were some of the hardest. My body and mind had to get used to the daily challenges of hiking.
徒步旅行一整条叫做thru-Hiking的长途旅行。每年都有数千人尝试完成一次A.T.直通旅行,但像我这样的人却有数百人成功了。大多数穿越旅行者从春季开始向北徒步。正如我所做的。因为南方已经变暖了。
阿巴拉契亚小径的有趣事实

第一位也是最古老的穿越旅行者:厄尔五世。Shaffer,1948年30岁,1998年80岁创下最快A T穿越徒步记录:45天22小时38分钟。
准备是关键
我花了几个月的时间准备徒步旅行。即使在天气不好的时候,我也带着沉重的背包练习徒步旅行。我在一家户外商店找到了一份工作,学习远足装备,并努力省钱。2016年4月4日,我在佐治亚州斯普林格山迈出了第一步。接下来的几天是最艰难的几天。我的身心必须适应徒步旅行的日常挑战。
The Trail Community
Ever since I heard about the A.T. as a child. I wanted to be a part of its trail community .People of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities hike the A.T. each year. Many people hike to help them recover from sad events. I ever met families hiking the whole trail together .Everyone was on the A.T. for a reason. Some thru-hikers hike with a group, but I hiked alone most of the time. I enjoyed meeting different people and keeping my own schedule. Whenever I felt lonely. I could always find friends in other hikers.
The Trail社区
自从我小时候听说过A.T。我想成为它的步道社区的一员。所有年龄、背景和能力的人每年都会参加徒步旅行。许多人徒步旅行是为了帮助他们从悲伤的事件中恢复过来。我曾经遇到过一起徒步旅行的家庭,每个人都有原因。一些徒步旅行者和一组人一起徒步旅行,但我大部分时间都是独自徒步。我喜欢与不同的人见面,并保持自己的时间表。每当我感到孤独时。我总能在其他徒步旅行者那里找到朋友。
Daily Challenges
One of the most difficult parts of hiking every single day was just that-hiking every single day! Most days on the trail, I woke up at sunrise, hiked until I reached my daily goal, and got to camp just before sunset. Like most thru-hikers, I ate food that was lightweight was easy to prepare, and didn't spoil.
The number of miles I hiked daily depended on the weather and terrain as well is my personal goals and how tired I felt. I tried to stay at campsites with a lean-to shelter, a water source and an outhouse. Otherwise I set up my small tent.
On rainy days, I planned my day around getting to a shelter before it filled up. Sometimes it rained nonstop for several days in a row. And I couldn't fully dry out until I reached a town. Every few days I went into a nearby town to buy more food, take a shower and do laundry. I learned that resting and making sure I had the proper supplies were just as important as hiking.
日常挑战
每天徒步旅行最困难的部分之一就是每天徒步旅行!在路上的大多数日子里,我都是在日出时醒来,徒步旅行直到达到每天的目标,并在日落前到达营地。像大多数徒步旅行者一样,我吃的食物很轻,容易准备,不会变质。
我每天徒步的英里数取决于天气和地形,这也是我个人的目标,也是我感觉有多累。我试图呆在营地里,那里有一个隐蔽的地方,一个水源和一个户外厕所。否则我就搭起了我的小帐篷。
在下雨天,我计划好了一天的时间,在雨满之前赶到避难所。有时一连几天不停地下雨。直到我到达一个城镇,我才完全干透。每隔几天我就去附近的一个城镇买更多的食物,洗个澡,洗个衣服。我了解到休息和确保我有合适的用品和远足一样重要。
The most important concern while hiking is safety. I saw bears, snakes and ticks on the trail. I tried do remain calm and keep a safe distance. I filtered my water, tried to stay dry and warm, and kept clean to avoid get sick. Having the right shoes and listening to my body's limits helped me avoid injuries. Keeping my gear well organized helped me be prepared in case of an emergency. Staying in touch with loved ones was also important.
Although I felt happy most of the time, one of the biggest challenges was that hiking wasn't always fun. I was often hungry, tired, and sore. Sometimes I was even bored I learned to lean on the people around me for support.
Like the beginning of my hike, the end was difficult. With the fall season in full swing, it had started getting cold at night. I was hungrier than I had ever felt. The mountains in Maine were the hardest to climb. Still after nearly six months of hiking .I completed the A.T. On October 1, 2016, I summited Mount Katahdin. While my last days on the trail were difficult, they were unlike my first. I felt strong confident. As a child, I rarely played sports, but after thru-hiking I felt proud that I could call myself an athlete.
远足时最重要的问题是安全。我在路上看到了熊、蛇和蜱虫。我尽量保持冷静,保持安全距离。我过滤了我的水,尽量保持干燥和温暖,并保持清洁以避免生病。穿上合适的鞋子,倾听身体的极限,帮助我避免受伤。整理好我的装备有助于我在紧急情况下做好准备。与亲人保持联系也很重要。
虽然我大部分时间都很开心,但最大的挑战之一是徒步旅行并不总是很有趣。我经常饿、累、痛。有时我甚至感到无聊,我学会了依靠周围的人来获得支持。
就像我徒步旅行的开始一样,结束很难。随着秋季的到来,夜晚开始变冷。我感到前所未有的饥饿。缅因州的山脉是最难攀登的。经过近六个月的徒步旅行,我终于完成了A.T.。2016年10月1日,我登上了卡塔丁山。虽然我在登山路上的最后几天很艰难,但与我的第一天不同。我感到非常自信。作为一个孩子,我很少参加体育运动,但在徒步旅行之后,我感到自豪,我可以称自己为一名运动员。
Reflections
Since I finished my hike, many people have asked me about my favorite memories. One is from a night when I was camping alone on a mountain top. Strong winds and heavy rain caused my tent to collapse. I became frustrated and afraid. At 3: 00 a m, I gave up trying to sleep and packed up, ate breakfast, and started hiking. What followed was the most amazing sunrise I had ever seen. A scary experience had transformed into something beautiful. Many people have asked me. "How did you do it?" I tell them that I did it the same way you do anything else: one step at a time .People have also asked me, "Why did you do it?" Looking back, the reasons I kept going were different from my reasons when I began. The love and support from those around me and at home made me never want to stop .
I'm writing this book several months after finishing my thru-hike. My knees still hurt from hiking those five million steps. I was away from people I love for six months. So you might be wondering, was it worth it? I took a big risk and did something I had always wanted to do. I planned, saved money .and lived on a tight budget. I learned to value every item I carried because my life depended on it. In spite of the challenges, in the end, thru-hiking the A.T. was an amazing experience.
反思
自从我完成徒步旅行以来,许多人问我最喜欢的记忆。其中一个是我独自一人在山顶露营的夜晚。大风和大雨使我的帐篷倒塌了。我变得沮丧和害怕。凌晨3点,我放弃了睡觉,收拾行李,吃了早餐,开始徒步旅行。随之而来的是我所见过的最令人惊叹的日出。一次可怕的经历变成了一件美好的事情。很多人问过我。“你是怎么做到的?”我告诉他们,我和你做其他事情的方式是一样的:一步一步。人们也问我,“你为什么这么做?”回想起来,我坚持下去的原因与我开始时的原因不同。来自周围人和家里人的爱和支持让我从未想过要停止。
我在完成徒步旅行几个月后开始写这本书。我的膝盖仍然因为走了五百万步而受伤。我离开了我爱的人六个月。所以你可能会想,这值得吗?我冒了很大的风险,做了我一直想做的事。我计划好了,省下了钱,生活预算很紧。我学会了珍惜随身携带的每一件物品,因为我的生活依赖于它。尽管面临挑战,但最终,穿越A.T.是一次令人惊叹的体验。
