（10 分）Some people live to climb the highest mountains． Some people live only dreaming about it while others live to avoid ever climbing at all． But one thing is certain， all people encounter mountains in their life

When I was a little girl ， my family moved to a tiny town at the bottom of a big mountain ． One day after school ， while exploring the green woods of this magnificent mountain， I almost fell on a set of stairs． What could these steps lead to？ Curiosity got the best of me as I knew it would be starting to get dark soon． I started climbing up those strangely mysterious steps

I climbed and climbed． There was nothing but just green bushes and these steps． I had to reach the top! But it was now getting real dark． If I kept going I might not be able to see my way back． My mum would be worried sick if I didn't come home soon． So I ran back home almost in the dark while trying not to get too scared

Anxiously I went to bed dreaming about what I would find at the top of this magical mountain． Could there be a castle up there？ Maybe I would find a monster（怪物）．Maybe I was taking the risk of never coming back home． Or， maybe all I would find was absolutely nothing! But something inside me was going to climb that mountain at all cost． I could hardly wait to try this adventure again

Now we live in a world surrounded by the "can't do" attitudes． We all fall down． We all have doubts and regrets ． Still we must climb and dream about what's at the top of our mountain． Monsters may appear or the night will fall． But never ever give up on your dream! Never let anyone tell you， "You can't．" Dream big and climb high！
