They say that five r six millin peple cme t Ri during carnival time and abut tw millin f them are n the streets n any given day. Luckily, I had a lcal guide, my sister’s friend Rnnie. He said he wuld take care f me and shw me arund at the carnival. He did nt let me dwn.
Well, the carnival is all abut the samba (桑巴舞). It’s a style f music and dance which cmes frm Africa. Samba music is usually fast and exciting with a lt f drums and harmnic vcals (和声). It is the kind f music that yu culdn’t help dancing t. And I was learning that as I fllwed Rnnie thrugh the crwd.
Rnnie had gt us tickets fr the samba Parade (游行) inside the Sambadrme where the tp samba schls take part in the cmpetitin. But we still had a lng way t g thrugh the street parties. He said mst peple enjy the carnival by making their wn parties in the street.

I grew up in the cuntryside f Pland. It’s an area where skiing is ppular, but my family was pr. I culdn’t affrd t ride the ski lift, s I used t hike up with the skis n my back. It turned ut that this was gd practice.
K2 is nicknamed “savage (野蛮的) muntain”. Yu hear tragic stries: Fr every fur peple wh reach the summit, ne dies. I was t afraid t even think abut skiing dwn it. Even the best ski muntaineers thught it impssible.
But that changed after a training expeditin (考察) t Brad Peak. I gt a clear lk at K2’sextremely large face, and it inspired me. Over time, my skills imprved and, by 2017, I didn’t feel the fear anymre. I began preparatins.
Why attempt such a feat (壮举)? I lve nature, and I lve setting gals. T be the first t d it just adds t the challenge. Fear is an imprtant part f life, but t ski dwn K2, I had t stp being afraid.
At the base camp, I felt calm and prepared. There were n emtins r dubts--I just knew I culd d it. But there were challenges. At the third base camp, 7, 000 meters up, my safety guy suffered severe back pain. We waited fr 36 hurs after he gt better, and I decided t prceed. In ttal, it tk abut three days t reach the summit.
Fr many climbers, getting t the peak f K2 wuld be the defining mment f their lives. Fr me, it was where the real challenge began. Skiing dwn a muntain demands patience and endurance (耐力).
The mst dangerus part was the Messner Traverse. It’s pure ice, up t a75-degree angle in places, with drps n either side. Yu need t keep yur turns and mvements smth and cnfident. N ne had challenged it befre, s it was a relief t crss it.
In ttal, ging dwn the muntain tk abut seven hurs. When I finally skied int camp, I was t tired t stand up.
I am s prud f what I achieved. N ne thught it culd be dne. It taught me the value f patience and that nbdy else can make yur dreams cme true.
