35．（10分）I grew up in the cuntryside f Pland.It's an area where skiing is ppular，but my family was pr.I culdn't affrd t ride the ski lift，s I used t hike up with the skis n my back.It turned ut that this was gd practice.
K2 is nicknamed"savage（野蛮的）muntain".Yu hear tragic stries：Fr every fur peple wh reach the summit，ne dies.I was t afraid t even think abut skiing dwn it.Even the best ski muntaineers thught it impssible.
But that changed after a training expeditin（考察）t Brad Peak.I gt a clear lk at K2's extremely large face，and it inspired me.Over time，my skills imprved and，by 2017，I didn't feel the fear anymre.I began preparatins.
Why attempt such a feat（壮举）？I lve nature，and I lve setting gals.T be the first t d it just adds t the challenge.Fear is an imprtant part f life，but t ski dwn K2，I had t stp being afraid.

In ttal，ging dwn the muntain tk abut seven hurs.When I finally skied int camp，I was t tired t stand up.
