In 2001 her urge to explore began to develop with a trip to the Western Desert on the borders of Egypt,Libya and Sudan in search of prehistoric rock art.This trip took Hannah to the center of the second biggest wilderness on the planet,an uninhabited(无人居住area the size of India. In 2004 Hannah joined a British expedition to explore the Wakhan Corridor in the northeast of Afghanistan in search of the source of the River Oxus.The upper (areas of this mountain valley had rarely been visited by Westerners. Later that year Hannah turned to a cold desert in a 56-day expedition from the coast of Antarctica to the South Pole.Crossing one of the harshest(最严皓的)environments in the world,the team of five battled with physical and mental exhaustion,injury,hunger and some of the lowest temperatures on earth. In 2006 Hannah returned to Antarctica and once again skied from Hercules Inlet to the South Pole,but this time alone and unsupported.She set a new world record for the journey of 39 days 9 hours and 33 minutes. In October 2007 Hannah began her first full adventure season traveling from Australia across to Chile and from there around Cape Horn and down to Antarctica. Hannah hopes that by writing and speaking about her experiences in the world and sharing them with those who care to read or listen,she will inspire people to go after their own dreams and achieve their own goals. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了Hannah MeKeand的探险生涯。 1.What did Hannah decide to do at 31?
