阅读理解。   It was early morning. Peter Corbett helped Mark Wellman out of his wheelchair and onto the ground. They
stood before El Captain, a huge rock almost 1.2 kilometers high. Mark had long dreamed to climb El Captain
when he was a child. At the age of twenty-one, he had fallen while climbing mountain, losing his legs. But he
never lost his love for life.
   Mark knew he couldn"t finish the climb alone, but his friend Peter would be there to lend a helping hand. They
thought it would take seven days to reach the top. Now Peter climbed about 30 meters up and hit a piton (岩钉) into the rock. Fastening (拴紧) one end of a 50 -meter rope (绳子) to the piton, he let the other end of the rope
fall down. Mark caught the rope and fastened it to his belt. He next reached above his head and fastened a T-bar(丁字铁) to the rope. Mark took a deep breath, pushed the T-bar up almost as far as his arms could reach, and
began the first pull up. High above, Peter let out a cheer, "You"re on your way."
   For the first four days the two men progressed upward (向上) without accident. But on the fifth day, a very
strong wind began to blow, making it hard for Mark to hold on to his rope. But Mark kept on pushing up the
T-bar and pulling himself up.
   It took them one day more than they had expected. But as the two heads appeared the group of people waiting
on the top went wild with joy.
