听力原文： Malaysia declared a state of emergency in two coastal cities on Thursday as smoke drifting across the Strait of Malacca from forest fires in Indonesia blanketed parts of peninsular Malaysia in a noxious haze, forcing schools to close and the country's biggest seaport to shut down. In the nation's worst environmental crisis since 1997, when a similar haze enveloped large areas of the region, the smoky haze this year has raised serious health concerns and worries over its economic impact. Two Malaysian government ministers flew to the Indonesian city of Medan on Thursday morning to discuss the situation with their counterparts there.

听力原文：W: Why did you start rock climbing？
M: Because the rocks were there. At 20 I spent most of my time rock climbing. At 25 I went for the first time to the Himalayas and climbed Nanga Parbat, one of the highest faces in the world.
W: What was your basic interest and motivation in climbing high mountains like the Himalayas？
M: It was only a new dimension for me. I was the first to break this system with the Alpine style, which meant, no fixed ropes, no high altitude camps, and no oxygen.
W: You don't want to bring your equipment to the mountains？
M: Exactly. Otherwise you loose the exposure. I know that all over the world climbers bring 100kg of equipment for communications. For them, the most important thing is to send information to their friends every day, and maybe a television station. It's not my way. I like to be where others are not going and no one knows what I'm doing and I don't know if I'm coming back.
W: So climbing was never a competition.
M: No. Climbing was never even a record. It was a personal experience. Climbing has to do with exposure, endurance, instinct, with knowledge of mountains, knowledge about your own nature. It's interesting to see what happens when a man and a mountain meet. In our inner soul something happens.
What is the man mainly talking about？

A. The Himalayas.
B. An environmental issue.
C. A news event.
D. His climbing experiences.
