Answer:
The opening text to EVEREST explains the difficulty of climbing Mt. Everest but then talks about how expeditions are set up to held people reach the summit. This film tells the true story of one such expedition in 1996 where the climbers ran into a disastrous storm with tragic results.
EVEREST is a very grim, depressing and rather unpleasant movie that I really wish was better. I had high hopes going into the film but sadly there are all sorts of problems that overshadow what great qualities that are on display. I think the biggest problem is the opening hour where we get to know the characters and like a lot of the disaster movies from the 1970s these scenes are all too familiar and they really don't add much. I think the direction of Baltasar Kormakur could have handled these scenes much better or at least added a bit of energy to them.
The film kicks into high gear once the climb actually starts and once the storm hits. The greatest aspect to the film is the terrific cinematography, which is just downright beautiful and at times breath-taking. Even greater is the fact that it really does show you the dangers of making such a climb and I think the one thing the film does brilliantly is show you what a remarkable accomplishment it would be to reach the top of the mountain. I've seen several documentaries on Everest but this movie really does a remarkable job at showing how difficult the climb would be.
The performances are all very good. Jason Clarke, Jake Gyllenhaal, Emily Watson, Keira Knightley and Josh Brolin are all very good in their roles. All of the roles are rather small but it's easy to see what would attract them to such a project. The film also benefits from being technically very good with the score, the editing, sound effects and various other effects coming across quite good.
As I said, the first hour of the film is rather sluggish and I think the overall pacing is just off. The film features some intense scenes of action and peril but as I said the overall feel is just so depressing and unpleasant that I really wouldn't recommend the movie to people. I really wish the film was better but in the end it falls well short of being a good movie.

Part I
The text structure is how the text is organized. Text structures include most of the time compare and contrast, sequence, description, problem and solution, and cause and effect. The text structure is one of the most important parts of a text. Some examples of a text structures are the sequence structure, which sorts out the text according to the order of the steps in a process or the chronological order of the events of the stories. And the problem and solution text structure, which presents a problem and then tries finding a solution and its consequences.
Part II
In the consistent text structure in the story "To Build a fire" the author consistently develops the northern theme in his work. cause-and-effect relationships are important for the author, he is interested in the psychology of the main character, the motives of his actions and the internal sources of forces for resistance. In "Gumption" the descriptive structure makes it easier for the author to emphasize actions and reveal how can each person of foolish decisions contribute to its downfall. they both tell a story of someone that is suffering. in "To Build a fire" he has to survive out in the wilderness, and in "gumption" they have to deal with racism.
Part III
The story "Gumption" has a descriptive structure, because it describes an idea. In the story, the author makes the reader understand Clara's individual interpretation of "Gumption" by depicting it to the reader. But in "To build a fire" the author uses a sequential structure (the ideas are presented as they happen in time) and it shows the reader how each one of the man's unintelligent decisions plays a part in his undoing.
