Tom: Wow, this is amazing. I'm glad we've come here. So cool.

Daniel: I always love skiing. You know, it's a cool game for cool people. Stay with me and you will be cool, too.

Tom: Hey, look over there. It seems that there is something interesting going on. Let's go and have a look.

Daniel: Sure. It's probably the skiing show. Adam told me there were many skiing clubs whose members put on shows to attract more visitors.

(They come to see the skiing show.)

Tom: See that. It's so dangerous. My mom would never allow me to do that.

Daniel: Hey, don't be so pathetic. It's a maximal sports show. What else can they do to attract more visitors? Stop all this fuss and enjoy the show.

Tom: You are right. But what if the avalanche happened?

Daniel: They are all very experienced and great skiers. So I suppose the chance for them to be buried by an avalanche is slim.

Tom: Anyway, the show is breathtaking. By the way, where did they get so much snow in here?

Daniel: Don't you know that? Are you kidding me?

Tom: Hey, not everyone is as lucky as you to have a father who is a scientist.

Daniel: Sorry. Well, they have the most advanced snowmaking machine.

Tom: Do you think the snowmaking may cause pollution?

Daniel: It's possible. But the boss here said they were doing whatever they can.

Tom: It's a good thing. OK, let's go skiing.

Daniel: Here we go.

汤姆：哇，这真是太棒了。真高兴我们到这里来。太酷了。

丹尼尔：我总是很喜欢滑雪。你知道，这是给酷人玩的酷游戏。跟我一起你也会变酷。

汤姆：嗨，看那边。那边好像有挺有趣的事。我们过去看看吧。

丹尼尔：行，那很可能是滑雪表演。亚当告诉我这里有很多滑雪俱乐部，它们的成员会进行表演来吸引更多的游客。

（他们来看滑雪表演。）

汤姆：看那个。那太危险了。我妈妈永远都不会让我做那个的。

丹尼尔：嗨，别那么可怜兮兮的了。这可是极限表演。否则他们还能做什么吸引游客啊？别大惊小怪了，我们好好看表演吧。

汤姆：好吧。不过，要是发生雪崩怎么办呢？

丹尼尔：他们个个都是经验丰富的出色滑雪者，所以我猜他们被雪崩埋葬的可能性极小。

汤姆：不管怎样，这表演真是激动人心。对了，他们从哪儿弄这么多雪到这里的？

丹尼尔：你难道不知道吗？你是在跟我开玩笑的吧？

汤姆：嗨，不是每个人都像你那么幸运有一个当科学家的老爸的。

丹尼尔：对不起。这个，他们有最先进的造雪设备。

汤姆：你觉得造雪会引起污染吗？

丹尼尔：那是有可能的。不过，这里的老板说过他们会尽可能避免污染。

汤姆：那还不错。好了，我们去滑雪吧。

丹尼尔：走喽！

It stands 8848 meters above sea level, and is covered by snow all year round. As the world's highest mountain, it was thought to be too dangerous to climb for a long time.
