题型：高中阅读理解 来源：外刊读物 Passage 1 Title: Hari on High Hari Budha Magar is an extraordinary individual who has defied all odds. Born with a physical disability, Hari is a double above - knee amputee (DAK). However, this has not stopped him from setting ambitious goals. His aim is to conquer the highest peaks on every continent, a feat that is truly remarkable considering his condition. Before Hari embarked on his journey to scale the world's highest mountains, he had to overcome numerous challenges. Daily life presented obstacles that most people take for granted. Simple tasks such as walking, getting dressed, or even moving around the house required significant effort and adaptation. But Hari's determination was unwavering. He started his training with great intensity. Physical conditioning was crucial, as climbing mountains demands peak physical fitness. Hari had to build up his strength, endurance, and balance. He spent countless hours in the gym, working on specific muscle groups that would support his climbs. He also had to master the use of specialized climbing equipment designed for amputees. This equipment had to be customized to fit his unique body structure and provide maximum support and safety. Hari Budha Magar's message extends beyond his physical achievements. He has become an advocate for people with disabilities, showing them that they can lead active and fulfilling lives. Through his Instagram account, he shares not only his climbing adventures but also insights into his daily life. He posts about the challenges he faces and how he overcomes them, from dealing with accessibility issues in public places to managing his physical health. His Instagram feed gives examples of 'things he does differently to most'. For instance, he shows how he adapts his climbing gear, how he trains with his prosthetics, and how he mentally prepares for the arduous climbs. By doing so, he is inspiring other disabled people to think about what they can achieve in their own lives. Hari has already climbed four of the world's most iconic peaks. In August 2019, he reached the summit of Mt. Blanc (4,810m). This was a significant milestone, proving to himself and others that he could achieve his dreams. Then, in January 2020, he conquered Mt. Kilimanjaro (5,895m). The challenging terrain and high altitude did not deter him. In May 2023, he scaled the majestic Mt. Everest (8,849m), a triumph that made headlines around the world. And earlier this year, he reached the top of North America's highest peak, Denali (6,190m). With each climb, Hari not only adds to his list of achievements but also reinforces his message that disability should not be a barrier to achieving great things. He encourages people everywhere, especially those with disabilities, to think differently about their capabilities and to strive for their personal goals. 1.
