Some people find it really difficult to learn English, and here are some of the
reasons. Firstly, English has one of the biggest vocabularies (21) __________ all
languages. Therefore, it is very hard for English learners to remember all the words
and phrases as well as use them correctly in different contexts. Secondly, English
grammar is quite complex. For example, there are twelve basic (22) __________ in
English. This makes learners confused when they have to use the tenses correctly in
different sentences. Other grammatical points, such as prepositions, reported speech,
and the passive voice are not any less challenging. Thirdly, (23) __________ learners
find English pronunciation very confusing. Words (24) __________ have the same
combination of letters may be pronounced differently. For instance, the 'ou' in 'rough'
is not pronounced the same as that in 'through’, ‘enough’ and so on. Another problem
is sentence stress. Stress we put on different words may lead to the difference in
meaning. In general, English vocabulary, grammar, (25) __________ pronunciation
may make learning it not an easy task.

Mount Everest (Mt. Everest) is the highest mountain in the world, standing at an
impressive 8,848 metres high. It is located in the Himalayas on the border between
Nepal and Tibet. Mt. Everest was first climbed successfully in 1953 by Edmund
Hillary and Tenzing Norgay. Every year, a lot of people attempt to climb Mt. Everest.
It is very dangerous to climb Mt. Everest due to its extreme weather conditions.
The air is very thin and cold. Most people carry bottles of oxygen because they could
die due to the lack of it at high altitudes. When the oxygen bottles are empty, people
throw them on the ground. When strong winds rip their tents, people leave them
behind as well. They do not have the energy to take the rubbish away, they only have
enough energy to go down the mountain safely.
Rubbish is a terrible problem on Mount Everest. Since people first began to
climb Mt. Everest, they left tons and tons of rubbish on the mountain. Several groups
have climbed the mountain just to pick up the rubbish. If people plan to climb the
mountain, they have to plan to take away their rubbish to protect Everest for future
generations.
