七年级下知能训练英语评价手册阅读理解Unit8 P78 C 原文，译文

   Last summer Annabelle Jones and Claire Hippert,two 17-year-old English schoolgirls,decided to climb the Matterhorn in Swizerland. The Matterhornis popular with mountain climbers because it is difficult to climb.

   The girls first got the idea a few years ago,when a well-known disabled climber,Norman Croucher,gave a talk at their school.Norman lost both his legs in a train accident when he was nineteen,but he has climbed some of the world's highest mountains on his artificial legs."He inspired us," said Claire.

     Then the girl met a well-known mountaineer called Turbo Thomas and he became their trainer. For the next two years he took them to climb the Swiss Alps during the summer holiday and they trained very hard."It wasn't easy," said Annabelle."The weather was often a problem. Sometimes it was very cold,but Turbo gragged us to the foot of the mountain and made us climb.

    Finally the girls wre ready to try the Matterhorn.They started to climb,but unluckily the weather teat them."It rained hard every day so it was impossible to climb very far,"said Claire.

   Will they give up?"Of course not,"said Annabelle. "I know we didn't get to the top,but we'll be back next summer to try again!Climbing is our life." 

    去年夏天，安娜贝拉·琼斯和克莱尔·希帕特，2名17岁的英国女孩决定爬瑞士的马特洪峰，这山峰对爬山者很受欢迎，因为它很难爬上去。
  这两名女孩几年前萌发了这个想法，当一个著名的残疾爬山者——诺曼·克劳切，在她们学校做了一场演讲，诺曼19岁时在一次训练中失去双腿，但他用他的假腿爬了几座世界最高峰，“他鼓舞了我俩。”克莱尔说。
    然后，他们会见了一名著名的名叫特博·托马斯的爬山家，他成了她们的教练，接下来的两年暑假期间，他带领她们爬了阿尔卑斯山，并且她们很吃苦，安娜贝拉说，“不是那么容易的，天气是个问题，有时很冷，但特博拖着我们到山脚去爬山。”
   最后，两名女孩准备尝试马特洪峰，她们开始了，不幸的是天气打败她们，克莱尔说，“每天下大雨，不可能爬上去了。”
   她们会放弃吗？“当然不会。”，安娜贝拉说，“我知道我们没有登顶，但明年暑假会再来，攀登是我们的生活”。
