Question

  Rebecca Stevens was the first British woman to climb Mount Qomolangma. Before she went up the highest mountain in the world,she was a journalist and lived in a small flat (公寓) in South London.

   In 1993,Rebecca left her job and her family to travel to Asia with some other climbers. She found that life on Mount Qomolangma was hard. uYou must carry everything on your back”’ She said. “So you can only take things that you will need. You can't wash on the mountain,and in the end I didn't even take a toothbrush. I am usually a clean person but there is no water,only snow. Water is very heavy so you only take enough to drink!”

   When Rebecca reached the top of Mount Qomolangma on May 17 ,1993,it was the best moment of her life. Suddenly she became famous.

   Now she is writing a book about the trip and people often ask her to talk about it. She has a new job,too. On a science program on television.

   Rebecca is well known today and she has more money,but she still lives in the small flat in South London among her pictures and books about mountains!
