Passage 2
I have two friends who love backpacking. They spent a lot of time in a part of New York State's Adirondack Mountains. It
21
46 mountains with a height of over 4,000 feet. The Adirondack Mountain Club gives
22
recognition, and an award, to anyone who
23
all 46 mountains. My two friends decided to go for this award.
Now what you have to understand is that
24
many of the 46 mountains have well-marked
25
to their summits (山顶), others are not marked at all. You have to "bushwhack (在丛林中开路)" using a compass and a map.
My friends had climbed 45 of the mountains. They had just one
26
— it was the most
27
requiring bushwhacking. A hiking path led past the base of the mountain, but from that point they were on their own.
Early one morning they left their
28
and walked five miles on the hiking path to the base of a chain of mountains. When they arrived, they
29
that they had left their compass and map back in camp. Rather than
30
the camp, they decided to bushwhack without the compass and map.
For hours they
31
uphill enduring heat, thick bush, and black flies.
32
, late in the afternoon they found themselves at the
33
of a mountain successfully. They were exhausted but
34
.
The feeling was short-lived, however. When they looked across the valley, they
35
another higher mountain. They had climbed the
36
one! It was too
37
that weekend to put their error right. They had to
38
another four months to climb the right mountain.
This story
39
us a good lesson. Often in life we put in a great effort to reach a goal. But without the right "map" and "compass", it is
40
to get "lost".
