Do you like climbing mountains? My friend Ted does. He has never climbed a dangerous mountain, but he has climbed some quite big and difficult ones. He began to climb rocks when he was a small boy. Ted liked it very much and he did not get very tired. The next year his father took him up some mountains in Scotland, and he was very happy. Last summer holidays, Ted's uncle invited him to go to Switzerland. The mountains are high there. They went to Switzerland by train and had a very good holiday. They climbed several mountains. At the end of the holiday he said to Ted, 'You are still very young, but you already climb well.' Ted was very glad. Now Ted wants to go to China to climb some of the very high peaks in the Himalayas, but he is still too young and also he hasn't got enough money. Perhaps one day he will become rich, and then he will go to China.
