More Comprehensive Questions
1. Why was the northern side called the "Death Road" before 1960?
2. How did the 1960 Chinese climbing team overcome the Second Step?
What does this show about them?
Because before 1960, no one was able to reach the top of Qomolangma from the northern side, and the climbing conditions there were very terrible.
Liu Lianman let his teammates step on his shoulders and then the climbers pulled themselves up bit by bit.
This shows that the team was very determined, worked well together, and were brave enough to risk their lives to succeed.
What does "new heights" in the title refer to?
It refers to both the new heights achieved by people in climbing Mount Qomolangma (such as the first Chinese team reaching the top from the northern side, measuring the mountain's height more accurately) and the new heights of human curiosity, ambition and the spirit of challenging difficulties.

Discuss the questions.
1. How do you think the Chinese climbers felt when they placed the national flag on top of Qomolangma?
I think the Chinese climbers felt extremely proud and excited. They were the first to reach the top from the northern side after overcoming terrible conditions. Placing the national flag there meant they achieved a great goal for their country, so they must have also felt a strong sense of honor and satisfaction.

2. What do you think George Mallory meant by “because it's there”?
I think he meant that the mountain itself is the reason to climb it. It's not for fame or money. It’s about human curiosity and the natural desire to challenge something that’s right in front of them—something big, difficult, and real.
Mount Huangshan lies in the south of Anhui Province in East China. It is only about 1,900 metres high, but it is one of the most amazing mountains in China.
Mount Huangshan is famous for its renowned four wonders— the odd-shaped pines, special rocks, hot springs and a sea of clouds. It not only has a wonderful landscape, but also has a rich cultural heritage. Xu Xiake called it the best of all mountains in China.
There are several ways to enjoy the beauty of Mount Huangshan. We can walk up paths and steps to the top or take a cable car. From the top, the whole view below looks like a beautiful painting. We can also stay overnight on the mountain to watch the sunrise. It is a fantastic view.
Mount Huangshan is such a masterpiece of nature, and I can’t wait to visit it.

Mount Huangshan is famous for its pine trees and rocks in special shapes, a wonderful sea of clouds, and relaxing hot springs. 黄山以其奇形怪状的松树和岩石、奇妙的云海和令人放松的温泉而闻名。
In winter, snow covers the mountain and it becomes a white wonderland. 在冬天,雪覆盖了山,山变成了一个白色的仙境。
People call it the “sea of clouds” because sometimes clouds surround and cover the mountain peaks. 人们称它为“云海”,因为有时云朵环绕并覆盖着山峰。

Dear Alex,
I strongly recommend Guilin's landscape to you. Yours, Guilin is in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, famous for its beautiful mountains and clean water. The most special things are the strange-shaped mountains and the clear Lijiang River. The water is so clear that you can see the fish swimming. Also, the mountains look like different animals from different angles, which is really amazing.
For fun, you can take a bamboo-raft ride down the Lijiang River to enjoy the views. You can also hike up the mountains for a bird's-eye view. I'm sure you'll have a great time here.
Yours,
Zhang Ming
