It seems to be something in our blood makes human beings want to conquer (征服)" things by climbing them, no matter whether it's Qomolangma — the (high) peak on Earth — Uluru, a big rock that sits 348 meters above the ground in the central Australian desert. Many (visit) to Uluru climb the rock even though there's no road to it, except for a chain-and-pole path that's been hammered into the rock by early explorers. There's even a sign at the bottom of the rock (write) in seven languages, reading: "Please don't climb."

    For starters, the rock has spiritual significance for the local Aboriginal people, and (set) foot on it is considered disrespectful. Other concerns include some people leaving litter on top of the rock, and some even urinate (撒尿)on it since there's no toilet up there. When it rains, the human waste is washed down onto the rock, which can be (harm) to the environment. Also, according to ABC News, 35 people (die) so far trying to climb it. This is the Australian government announced earlier this month that climbing Uluru (ban), starting from Oct 26, 2019.
