　　Last summer Annabelle and Claire Hippert, two 17-year-old English schoolgirls, decided to climb the Matterhorn, the famous snow-covered mountain in Switzerland．The Matterhorn is popular to mountain climbers because it is so difficult to climb．

　　The girls first got the idea a few years ago, when a well-known disabled climber, Norman Croucher, gave a talk at their school．Norman lost both his legs in a train accident when he was nineteen but he climbed some of the world's highest mountains on his man-made legs．‘He encouraged us,’said Claire．

　　Then the girls met a well-known mountaineer called Turbo Thomas and he became their trainer．For the next two years he took them climbing in the Swiss Alps during the summer holidays and they trained very hard．‘It wasn't easy,’said Annabelle．’The weather was often a problem．Sometimes it is so cold that we didn't want to get up．

　　The girls kept going and finally they were ready to try the Matterhorn．They made a date for the last week in August and traveled to Zermatt．They started to climb, but unluckily the weather beat them．‘It rained every day so it was impossible to climb very far,’said Claire．

　　Are they disappointed?‘Of course not,’said Annabelle．‘I know we didn't get to the top, but we'll be back next summer to try again! Climbing is our life．’
