Voice 3: "I, my friend Martin, and a small group were climbing in the mountains. We climbed with two ropes. Martin and I climbed using the first rope. We had already reached the highest point of the mountain. And we could see that a storm was coming. We knew that we needed to protect ourselves. We climbed a little way back to a shelter area. We would be safe there.
声音3：“我和我朋友马丁还有其他人去爬山。我们用两条绳子辅助爬山。马丁和我用第一条绳子。我们已经到达了最高峰。这时我们看到风暴就要来了。我们知道我们要保护自己。所以我们往回走到了掩蔽区。在那里我们会是安全的。
Not all of the people in our group had reached the top of the mountain yet. They were using the second rope to climb. So we stayed at the shelter to wait for them.
我们一行人中还有人没有到达最高峰。他们爬山时用的是第二条绳子。所以我们留在庇护地等他们。
I can still see it like it was yesterday! People on the second rope were still climbing the side of the mountain. The lightening came from the sky. It hit the rope. Some of the people in the group were still using that rope to climb! The people on the rope were not seriously harmed. But they were very frightened.
现在我还能清楚地看到当时的情景，就好像那是昨天发生的一样！用第二条绳子的人们还在山的一侧攀爬。这时闪电划破了天空。闪电击中了绳子。当时还有一些人在借助那条绳子爬山！幸运的是那些人受伤并不严重。但是他们被吓坏了。
I remember clearly that, after the storm stopped, I helped the climbers off the second rope to the shelter. I was waiting for them as they came over the edge of the cliff."
我清楚地记得，暴雨停止以后，我帮助一些登山者从第二条绳子处下来，进入庇护地。他们从悬崖边过来时我正在等他们。”
