Every year about 40,000 people attempt to climb Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa. They bring with them lots of waste. The crowds might damage the beauty of the place. The glaciers (冰川) are disappearing, changing the face of Kilimanjaro.

每年大约有4万人试图攀登非洲最高峰乞力马扎罗山。他们带来了大量的垃圾。人群可能会破坏这个地方的美。冰川正在消失,改变着乞力马扎罗山的面貌。

Hearing these stories, I’m skeptical about the place — other destinations are described as “purer” natural experiences.

听到这些故事,我对这个地方产生了怀疑——因为其他旅游地被描述为“更纯粹”的自然体验。

However, I soon discover that much has changed since the days of disturbing reports of camps among tons of rubbish. I find a clean mountain, with toilets at camps and along the paths. The environmental challenges are significant but the efforts made by the Tanzania National Park Authority seem to be paying off .

然而,我很快发现,自从这些令人不安的有关营地周围垃圾成山的报道刊发以来,情况已经发生了很大变化。在我面前展现的是一座干净的山,一路不仅有营地,小路边也有厕所。虽然环境面临着很大的挑战,但坦桑尼亚国家公园管理局的努力似乎正在取得成效。

The best of a Kilimanjaro experience, in my opinion, isn’t reaching the top. Mountains are regarded as spiritual places by many cultures. This view is especially evident on Kilimanjaro as climbers go through five ecosystems(生态系统)in the space of a few kilometers. At the base is a rainforest. It ends abruptly at 3, 000 meters, giving way to lands of low growing plants. Further up, the weather changes — low clouds envelope the mountainsides, which are covered with thick grass. I count twelve shades of green from where I stand. Above 4, 000 meters is the highland desert : gravel(砾石), stones and rocks. Finally you climb into an arctic-like zone with permanent snow and the glaciers that may soon disappear.

在我看来,对乞力马扎罗山最棒的体验并不是非要到达顶峰。许多文化都认为山是精神之地。当乞力马扎罗山登山者在几公里的空间内穿过五个生态系统的时候,这种看法更是显而易见。山基地是一片热带雨林。它却在海拔3000米的地方戛然而止,取而代之的是低矮的植物。再往上走,天气就变了——低矮的云层笼罩着长满青草的山坡。我从我站的地方数到十二道绿色阴影。在4,000米以上的高原沙漠里,你可以看到:砾石(砾石),石头和岩石。最后,你会爬进一个像北极一样的地带,那里终年积雪,冰川可能很快就会消失。

Does Kilimanjaro deserve its reputation as a crowded mountain with lines of tourists ruining the atmosphere of peace?I found the opposite to be true.

乞力马扎罗山人山人海,游客络绎不绝,破坏了祥和的大气,乞力马扎罗山真应该拥有这个“美誉吗?我发现事实正好相反。
