The Race to the Pole
On 1 June,1910,Captain Scott left London to begin his journey to the Antarctic.On his way,he received a message from the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen:“I'm going South.” So the race to the South Pole was on①!
During the polar summer of 19101911,both teams organised food bases in preparation(准备) for their journeys the next year.Then came the total darkness of the polar winter.②Scott and Amundsen waited anxiously for spring.
Amundsen was the first to leave③,on 15 October,1911.He had teams of dogs pulling④ the sledges(雪橇) and all his men were on skis.Because of this,he made rapid progress.Scott left on 1 November and soon had problems.First,his two sledges broke down,and then the horses began to have serious difficulties with the snow and the cold.After a while,Scott and his men had to push the sledges themselves.
奔向南极的赛跑
在1910年6月1日,斯科特上校离开伦敦开始他的南极之旅。在途中,他收到一条来自挪威探险家罗尔德·阿蒙森的消息:“我要向南极进发。”于是这场奔向南极的赛跑开始了!
在1910年到1911年的极地夏天,两队人都建立了食物基地,为他们下一年的旅程做准备。接着完全漆黑的极地冬天来了。斯科特和阿蒙森都在焦虑地等待春天的到来。
在1911年10月15日,阿蒙森第一个出发了。他让成群的狗拉着雪橇,所有的队员都配有滑雪板。因此,他前行的速度很快。斯科特在11月1日出发,不久就遇到了麻烦。先是他的两辆雪橇坏了,后来马匹开始应付不了大雪和严寒的天气。过了一段时间,斯科特和队员们不得不自己推雪橇了。
[助读讲解] ①be on开始。②本句是一个全部倒装句,正常语序:The total darkness of the polar winter came then。③序数词之后用不定式作定语。④have...doing...让……一直做……。
