二、短篇阅读
Jerry, a world - famous mountain climber, has climbed many high mountains in the world. He was even named Adventurer of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2018.

Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn’t feel fulfilled. He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains? How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world?”

Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples(样本) from the places far away to do research. But scientists can’t get there themselves. Jerry thought he could do something to help. He then came up with an idea. He set up a team of top adventurers to collect samples for scientists. By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.

Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life of Mountain Qomolangma. The samples they brought back have helped scientists study how plants live in extreme(极端) conditions.

For Jerry, this kind of adventure is the most satisfying. “Such adventures have made us see life in a different way. Now, being the best climber isn’t important for me. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing. There is still much more we can do.” Jerry said to a newspaper.
