The correct answer is B. summit.
The sentence should read: "After months of tedious climbing, the team reached the summit of the mountain."
The summit refers to the highest point or top of a mountain. It is the most appropriate word to use in this context, as it specifically indicates the team's achievement of reaching the mountain's highest point.
The other options do not fit as well:
- End (A) could refer to the conclusion of the climb, but it doesn't specifically indicate the team reached the top.
- Height (C) is a general term that could refer to any point on the mountain, not necessarily the top.
- Terminal (D) typically refers to a point of departure or arrival, like a bus terminal, and doesn't fit in this context.
