Task 1

（2019·全国乙卷）Every year about 40，000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro， the highest mountain in Africa. They    1    with them lots of waste. The    2    might damage the beauty of the place. The glaciers （冰川） are disappearing， changing the    3    of Kilimanjaro.

Hearing these stories， I？__________m     4    about the place—other destinations are described as “purer” natural experiences.

However， I soon    5    that much has changed since the days of disturbing reports of    6    among tons of rubbish. I find a    7    mountain， with toilets at camps and along the paths. The environmental challenges are    8    but the efforts made by the Tanzania National Park Authority seem to be    9    .

The best of a Kilimanjaro    10    ， in my opinion， isn？__________t reaching the top. Mountains are    11    as spiritual places by many cultures. This    12    is especially evident on Kilimanjaro as    13    go through five ecosystems （生態系统） in the space of a few kilometers. At the base is a rainforest. It ends abruptly at 3，000 meters，     14    lands of low growing plants. Further up， the weather    15   —low clouds envelop the mountainsides， which are covered with thick grass. I    16    twelve shades of green from where I stand. Above 4，000 meters is the highland    17    ： gravel（砾石）， stones and rocks.     18    you climb into an arctic？鄄like zone with    19    snow and the glaciers that may soon disappear.

Does Kilimanjaro    20    its reputation as a crowded mountain with lines of tourists ruining the atmosphere of peace？ I found the opposite to be true.
