My father and I used to climb the mountains near my house. In Korea（韓國(guó)） there are more mountains than plains（平原）. For this reason, climbing has been a very   1   thing for me since I was a kid.

Walking together, my father and I used to have a lot of conversations and   2   them I learned a lot. In fact, without mountaineering, Dad couldn't have had enough time to   3   with me because he was very   4  himself.  So I believe mountaineering gave me time to talk with him and to be in deep thought as well as to develop my patience（耐心）. I   5   to be able to do what I   6   do for a longer time.

Once we climbed Palgoly Mountain. It was very   7   for me because I was only ten years old. At first, I felt very   8  . But soon I had. pain（疼） in   9  of my legs, so I wanted to give up   10   My father said, "  11   is a season when everything comes to life again. The mountain and the field where we are standing are beautiful. You can   12   see a beautiful sky at the   13   of the mountain, but you can't see it before you   14   the top. You can always enjoy a lot of beautiful scenery at the top,  but you can't when you are halfway（中途） up."

At that time, I was   15   young to understand his words, but now I get it. And I also have new hope and confidence.
