题目内容:
Every year, lots of people go to visit the Great Wall. The most popular section is Badaling (八达岭). However, during my seven years in China, Badaling never appeared attractive to me—there were too many tourists.
As an adventurous (爱冒险的) hiker, I prefer places that few people visit. One day in May 2000, I chose to visit Simatai. It is surrounded by thick forests and is extremely steep (陡峭的).
At the entrance, I met a group of vendors (小贩). They were selling some postcards. One tiny old woman followed me wherever I went. Finally, I became impatient. I shouted at her and ran away.
As soon as I saw the Great Wall, I felt extremely excited. The old woman had long disappeared from my mind. I raced up the Great Wall.
Then, halfway up, I stopped. Suddenly, I realized I was on a very dangerous path. It was no wider than a meter and there were no “walls”. It came to me that some tourists had fallen to their deaths there.
I felt terribly frightened. A cold wind came up. I stood there alone.
Suddenly, I felt a small hand on my back. A soft voice told me, in Chinese, not to be afraid. It said she would lead me to the top. And so she did—carefully and gently from behind. All the while, she repeated that everything would be fine.
Half an hour later, we reached a safer section. Feeling better, I turned around to see who had been so kind.
It was the old woman. I felt ashamed of myself and gave her a big hug. Later, I bought every one of her postcards. She smiled and took my hands in hers.
