Qomolangma is the highest mountain in the world, which is 8,848. 86 metres high. It's called "the Roof of the World". But Mount Kilimanjaro (乞力马扎罗山) is the highest mountain in Africa. It is one of the most beautiful places on the earth which is 5,895 metres above sea level, so it is often called "the Roof of Africa".
Climb lovers' dream place—Mount Kilimanjaro
It is one of the world's highest "walkable" mountains. People can climb the mountain all year round, but many people will choose to climb during the mountain's two "dry" seasons, January to March and June to October. If they want to reach the top of it, they can climb in the rainy season too, but the weather condition may not be good and it may be difficult to achieve.
The first recorded climb of Mount Kilimanjaro
It's believed that the first people known to have reached the top of the mountain were Hans Meyer and Ludwig Purtscheller. Through hard work, they successfully reached the top of the mountain on October 6th, 1889.
The beautiful snow cap of Mount Kilimanjaro
Even though it is hot there, the top of the mountain is covered with ice and snow the whole year. There are many famous stories of the snow cap of Mount Kilimanjaro. It formed about 11,000 years ago, but a research said that it might disappear.
One of the reasons for its possible disappearance is global warming. The high temperature is making the ice on Mount Kilimanjaro melt (融化). The beautiful snow cap of Kilimanjaro is disappearing quickly.
41. How high is Mount Kilimanjaro?
42. Who were the first people to reach the top of Mount Kilimanjaro?
43. How long has the snow cap on Mount Kilimanjaro formed?
44. Is it possible for us to stop global warming? If so, what can we do? Write 30 words or more.
