1 However careful one may be, he cannot possibly listen carefully to everything
that he hears. There are 1 of reasons for this. One of them is the overload of messages most of us 2 each day. In addition to the numerous hours we 3 hearing other people speak, we may spend several hours listening to the radio or sitting in front of a television set. 4, it is impossible to focus our attention completely on what
is said; our mind might be 5 elsewhere. Preoccupation with our personal concerns is 6 reason we don’t always listen carefully. A romance 7 sour or a good grade on a test may take prominence in our mind even as 8 is speaking to us. Furthermore, we are surrounded by all kinds of noises which interfere 9 listening. For example, voices at a party or 10 of traffic may simply make it difficult for us to catch everything that is being said.

1 We all believe that modern technology can make life better because it makes
everything faster. But by 11 everything up, we suffer losses we have not yet learnt to know. Our day begins with speedy urges: the alarm rings and you jump 12 bed. You take a quick shower. Then you wake the kids and 13 them through breakfast so they wont miss the bus. At the dining table, you swallow some slices of bread with a cup of tea. When everything 14, you hurry to the car, thinking of the things you would
buy from the supermarket on the way 15. Driving 20 minutes in the busy traffic, you reach your workplace, rushing into the building and 16 up the stairs three at a time, arriving at your desk with seconds to spare. You take 17 deep breaths. Then, you instantly remember that the 18 you didnt finish last night must be faxed to Beijing by 10 oclock in the morning.
Yet it seems that the 19 we go, the further we fall behind. Not only in the literal sense of not getting done what we set out to do, 20 at a deeper level. It has come to the point where my days feel like an Olympic marathon.

1 Most young people enjoy some form of physical activity. It may be walking,
bicycling, or swimming, or in winter, skating or skiing. It may be a game of some 1— football, hockey, golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering. Those who have a
passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often 2 with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship, and to take risks on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, 3, by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure.
Mountaineering is a sport and 4 a game. There are no manmade rules, as there are for such games as golf and football. There, 5, rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to ignore, but it is this freedom from manmade rules that makes
mountaineering 6 to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods.
If we compare mountaineering and other more 7 sports, we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken 8 this. There are, it is true, no “matches” between “team” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock face linked by a rope on which their lives may depend, there is 9 teamwork.
The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and more powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of 10. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities.
