London Time, July 7, 1992
Mountaineer Jean-Marc came back to London yesterday. He was welcomed by all the people in the city. But the 28-year-old Frenchman was very modest. “I’m not a hero,” he said in London Guild Hall, “It was something I wanted to do, so I did it.”
Jean-Marc climbed the world’s highest mountain, K2 in the Himlayas, with English Climbing Team one month ago. He was the only one who climbed up. He was the first Frenchman to reach the peak(山顶). When he got to the peak, his tears fell. He was so glad.
Yesterday his wife went to London to meet him. These years she always helping him to do his job. Jean-Marc said, “Because my wife gave me so much help, I won. I love her very much. And now we’ll have a month’s holiday in America.”
