Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure (冒险)in South America, covering 7800 miles. He was even named Adventure of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2018. Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn’t feel fulfilled. He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains? Am I doing something helpful? How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world?” Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples (样本) from places far away to do research. But scientists can’t get there themselves as such places are hard to reach—only the bravest adventurers can make it. Jerry thought he could do something to help. He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for scientists. By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it. Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life on Mount Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped scientists learn how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions (条件). For Jerry, this kind of adventure is the most satisfying (满意). “Such adventures have made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn't important for me. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing mountains. There is still much more we can do,” Jerry said to a newspaper. 59. What is Paragraph 1 mainly talk about? A. Jerry’s friends B. Jerry’s achievements. C. High mountains. D. A geography magazine. 60. Why did Jerry set up a team of top adventurers? A. To make friends B. To help scientists. C. To study plants. D. To train scientists. 61. Jerry’s and his friends’ adventures have changed ________. A. their hobbies B. their friendship C. their understanding of life D. their living conditions 62. Which can be the best title for the passages? A. Dangerous Mountain Climbing B. Important Scientific Discoveries (科学发现) C. Plants found on High Mountains D. Adventures Turned into Something Greater.  E When Sarah Cooper was 14, everybody at her school knew her. Was she the best student? The star of the football team?
