Mountains, the highest mountain in the world at 29,035 feet.
Junko was born in 1939 and grew up in a small town in Japan. During her childhood, she was thin and
weak. At age 10, Junko went on a school trip. The students climbed two mountains, and Junko loved it.
She could climb in her own time and ability.
After Junko graduated from university in 1962, she joined several climbing clubs. But they had mostly
men members. Some refused to climb with a woman. In 1965, Junko married a well-known Japanese climber.
Over the years, they climbed all the highest mountains of Japan.
Meanwhile Junko started a woman's climbing club. By 1972, she was chosen to lead a team of women to
climb Mount Everest. It took three years for the 15 women to train and raise money for their climb.
Finally in 1975, the team went to climb the mountain. They found nine guides to help them climb up the
mountain. Everything went well until the morning of May 4. Suddenly a huge amount of snow and ice fell on
them. One guide saved Junko. She rushed to help others. Everyone was alive but they had injuries, including
Junko. However, the team decided to continue their climb. About two weeks later, on May 16, Junko reached
the top of Mount Everest. Later she said, "I can't understand why men make all this fuss (过于关注) about

High in the mountains, and deep in the forest, lives a lake with many plants and animals in and around her. The plants and animals have enough food and clean water to keep them healthy. The wind carries pure air, and the rain comes down clear and clean.
But recently, Lucy Lake and her friends haven’t been feeling very well. All the plants and animals get together to talk about the problem. “Why are we sick?” “What can we do?” ask all of them. No one has any answers.
Just then two hikers appear. The animals tell them about their problems. “Can you help us?” they ask. “Yes,” one hiker says. “I think it’s because of acid rain.”
“Acid rain comes from chemicals(化学物质) in the air. The pollution comes from factories, cars and trucks.”
“So, although I don’t want to, I help the pollution travel through the air!” says the wind. “And I carry it to the land!” cries the rain.
“If you can help us think of some solutions(解决方法), we will send a message to tell people how to clean up our environment,” one hiker says.
With the help of the plants and animals, the two hikers make a list of ideas for saving Lucy Lake and her friends.
Time passes, and the forest and lake begin to feel a little better.
The next time the hikers climb up the mountains to Lucy Lake, they smile at what they find. “We’re glad things have started to change,” one hiker says. “And we’re glad you helped us make a difference,” says the other.
