Question

On 29th of May, 1953, two men reached the top of Everest, the highest mountain peak in the world. One was Edmund Hillary, a New Zealander and the other was Tenzing, who was a Sherpa, a native of the Himalayan mountains. These two men of different races shared the honour of the historic climb. He is the only man who was born in a poor and primitive tribe, far away from the civilization, and yet has won worldwide fame. Tenzing's mother and father were the simplest of peasant farmers. He never went to school. When he was a small boy, his job was to help to look after his father's animals which were sheep and goats and yaks and he never had time to learn to read or write, yet now, the name of Tenzing is known all over the world and he has won his fame not just through luck but because of his own skill and character and because when he was a boy, he had a single great ambition and he stuck to it all his life. His ambition was to climb the mountains arround his home; and his home was near Everest and Everest was the highest mountain he could see. So, his special ambition was to climb to the top of that mountain.
When Tenzing was a very small boy, his father used to send him out with the herds of yaks while they were grazing. In summer, the yaks went high up the mountian sides above the flowering forests, to crop the grass which grows just below the snow and glaciers and the vast rock walls of the high peaks. Many of Tenzings people believed that the mountain peaks were the homes of gods and demons and Tenzing was half afraid of them; yet even then, out alone with the herds, he used to dream day-dreams and imagine that one day he would climb to the highest summit and see what was on the other side and perhaps even visit one holy city of Tibet which his parents had told him lay beyond the mountains. The whole of Tenzing's life is the story of how he made this dream come true....
He was forty when he got to the top of Everest and after the age of forty-five his climbing days were over but he still loved the mountains more than anything, and the Indian Government appointed him or the head of a mountaineering school where he could teach young Indians to love the mountains too. Perhaps he had even more than that to teach them and to teach other people all over the world. For the boy who herded yaks has gone a long way and any one can learn this lesson from his life : that, if you have one great ambition and never lose sight of it, you are well on the way to achieve it in the end.
