Alex Honnold is a famous American rock climber. He made history in 2017 when

he became the first man to climb El Capitan without ropes. Four years later, his mother
Dierdre Wolownick became the oldest woman to reach the top of El Capitan on her
70th birthday.
Dierdre Wolownick, the writer and language teacher, was always trying something
new. In her 40s, she taught herself swimming. In her 50s, she took up running. In 2008,
when Honnold was home and had time, Wolownick asked him to teach her rock
climbing. So they visited a climbing club. She finished 12 routes (路线) on the first day
with his help. Wolownick fell in love with the sport. Soon, Wolownick began to practice her skills. A new
world opened up to her. When many people her age were thinking about retirement (退休) and slowing
down, she didn't want to stop. She decided to climb El Capitan. In 2017, she finished the climb with her
son at the age of 66. At 70, she did it again and broke her own record (记录).
Wolownick wrote a book about her experience - The Sharp End of Life: A Mother's Story. In her
book, she tells people that age is just a number. Courage (勇气) can take a person to surprising heights.
Wolownick believes it's never too late to learn. Her story will encourage people to realize one dream after
another.
