It was years before Dad fully 2. Only through more adventures and projects in Nepal could he3 it. He has now built 42 schools and hospitals there.
As I grew up, some of Dad's restlessness seemed to 4 me. I know many people think that being Edmund Hillary's son, I cannot help 5 mountains. Well, I am, at the age of 48, a mountain man. I have been on more than 30 mountaineering expeditions(探险). And yes, I have climbed Everest twice. I am 6 because I have all that my father taught me, too.
On one awful day in 1995, it was his 7 that saved my life. I was in a group of eight climbers just below the top of K2 in the Himalayas. We had just another 400 meters left to climb. But the 8 was going from bad to worse, and something didn't feel 9.

Fear makes you careful. As my father always told me, 17 is not something that you should deny(否认). It is something you should 18. When I woke up in my tent the next morning it was silent and still all around. I found out that I was the only one who had managed to 19 what had to be done. The seven above had 20.
