I don't really remember my father. He was away a lot, climbing mountains. He named me after the mountain that he dreamed of climbing — Everest. However, ironically (讽刺地), it was the mountain that killed him. High-altitude (海拔) mountain climbing is one of the most dangerous sports. But for me, it was a belief (信念). I dreamed of being a mountain climber, like my father. But my mother didn't allow me to climb.
I came home one day to find a dusty box on the table. I had hidden my climbing equipment (装备) in it.
My mother came in. "I was cleaning out your room today."
"Oh." I was standing there looking at it. What excuse could I give?
She looked at me seriously. "How long have you been doing this?"
"Uh, well. I was free-climbing (徒手攀岩) up small mountains when I was eight or so."
"Eight? Do you have any idea how dangerous it is?" She shook her head. "Everest, when I was just a little older than you, I saw a mountaineer killed by a rockfall. I thought I could stop it from happening to me until it happened to my father."
"I know what can happen." "You don't know!" she cried.
I had to go away from her. I opened the screen door (纱门) and pushed my way outside.
"Everest," she said behind me, from the other side of the screen door, gently but firmly. She was trying to be nice to me. But inside me was the unstoppable ▲ for quiet and high mountains.
I turned back to her. "You think you can stop me? You can't stop me," I said.
Her voice rose. "You're not invincible (无敌的), Everest!"
"I know I'm not," I said. "Look, I can't promise I'll never get hurt. But how can anyone live without getting hurt?"
We stood there looking at each other through the screen door. Then she gave a laugh that broke in the middle. "This is what I get for having a son named after the highest mountain in the world."
I knew she could because she knew something in me would get small if she didn't. But she would let me climb because she knew something in me would get small if she didn't.
I reached out then and opened the door between us.

### 五、阅读理解
我对父亲的记忆并不深刻。他经常外出登山。他以自己梦想攀登的山峰——珠穆朗玛峰（ Everest）为我命名。然而，具有讽刺意味的是，正是这座山夺走了他的生命。高海拔登山是最危险的运动之一。但对我来说，它是一种信念。我梦想成为像父亲一样的登山者。但母亲不允许我登山。
有一天我回到家，发现桌子上有一个满是灰尘的盒子。我把登山装备藏在了里面。
母亲走了进来。“我今天在清理你的房间。”
“哦。”我站在那里看着那个盒子。我能找什么借口呢？
她严肃地看着我。“你做这件事多久了？”
“嗯，大概在我八岁左右的时候，我就开始徒手攀登小山了。”
“八岁？你知道这有多危险吗？”她摇了摇头。“珠穆朗玛峰，在我比你大一点的时候，我亲眼目睹一名登山者被落石砸死。我原以为这种事不会发生在我身上，直到它发生在我父亲身上。”
“我知道可能会发生什么。”“你根本不知道！”她喊道。
我不得不离开她。我打开纱门，挤身走到外面。
“珠穆朗玛峰，”她在我身后，从纱门的另一边温柔却坚定地说道。她试图对我和颜悦色。但我内心对宁静高山的渴望是无法阻挡的。
我转过身面对她。“你以为你能阻止我吗？你阻止不了我。”我说。
她的声音提高了。“你并非无敌的，珠穆朗玛峰！”
“我知道我不是，”我说。“听着，我不能保证自己永远不会受伤。但一个人怎么能不受伤地活着呢？”
我们站在那里，透过纱门彼此对视。然后她笑了起来，笑声却中途中断了。“这就是我生了一个以世界最高峰命名的儿子的下场。”
我知道她会（让我去登山），因为她知道，如果她不这么做，我内心的某种东西就会变得渺小。但她会让我去登山，因为她知道，如果她不这么做，我内心的某种东西就会变得渺小。
然后我伸出手，打开了我们之间的那扇门。
1. 下列哪个单词可以填入第10段的“ ▲ ”处？
