It is part of a project to remeasure the current height of the world’s highest mountain.The team was made up of eight members. They set off from a camp at 8,300 meters at around 2:10 am. Nine hours later, they reached the summit successfully. Afterwards, the team worked there for 2.5 hours. They put up a survey marker, set up a global navigation satellite system (GNSS, 卫星导航系统) receiver, and used a radar (雷达) device to collect information.Since 1949, China has made six major scientific surveys of Mount Qomolangma, including two height measurements. In 1975, Chinese scientists reached the summit and measured the mountain for the first time at 8,848.13 meters.

Nepal holds that Mount Qomolangma is four meters higher than the previous measurement by Chinese researchers. However, a huge earthquake struck Nepal in 2015. The snowcap may have changed as a result.It will take researchers two to three months to study the information. Advances in technology are believed to produce more exact results this time than 15 years ago.31. What time did the team arrive at the top of the Mount Qomolangma on May 27? A. About 11:10 am.  B.

How high Mount Qomolangma is B. Chinese team remeasures the height of Mount Qomolangma C.

Have a glass of water to see if you are thirsty — sometimes you are just thirsty, you need no food. Stop eating before you feel full.Eat breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. After you don’t eat for the past ten hours, your body needs food to get you going. You will be smarter after eating breakfast.Eat healthy snacks like fruits, yogurt or cheese. We all need snacks sometimes. In fact, it’s a good idea to eat two healthy snacks between your three meals. This doesn’t mean that you can eat a bag of chips instead of a meal.Don’t eat dinner late. With our busy life, we always put off eating dinner until the last minute. Try to eat dinner, at least 3 hours before you go to bed. This will give your body a chance to digest (消化) most of the food before you rest for the next 8-10 hours.66. According to the passage, should we eat alone or eat with others?67.
