While rock climbing may still be necessary for mountain climbing, most people just climb low mountains for fun. If you try rock climbing, you will know that it is not a very easy sport. Indoor and outdoor rock climbing both need practice. Besides, your body and your will (意志) are very important for rock climbing. To climb successfully, one must use wonderful skills.

The closer you are to the rock face, the easier it is to climb. Rock climbing is a wonderful sport. Once you start to learn how to climb, you will find more fun. If you like games such as playing chess, you may love rock climbing. They are nearly the same in the way of thinking. Rock climbing is also a good way to get yourself into shape. If you enjoy a difficult game and love outdoor activities, you should take up rock climbing as a new hobby. 16. When did rock climbing become a sport? A. Early in the 1900s. B. In 1900. C.
