lesson 32 Antarctic Expedition
The Race to the Pole
On 1 June,1910,Captain Scott left London to begin his Antarctic expedition. On his way,he received a telegram from the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen:"I'm going South."So the race to the South Pole was on!
During the polar summer of 1910-1911,both teams organised food depots in preparation for their expeditions the following year.Then came the total darkness of the polar winter. Scott and Amundsen waited impatiently for the first signs of spring.
Amundsen was the first to leave,on 15 October,1911.He had team of dogs pulling the sledges 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 motor sledges broke down, and then the ponies began to have serious difficulties with the snow and the cold. After a while,Scott and his men had to push the sledges themselves.
Amundsen reached the Pole on 14 December and put a Norwegian flag there. Then he prepared for the return journey.
Scott finally arrived at the Pole with four companions on 17 January. They were devastated when they saw the Norwegian flag. Scott wrote bitterly in his diary:
"Well,we have now lost the goal of our ambition and must face 800 miles of hard pushing and goodbye to most of our dreams."
The return journey was one of the worst in the history of exploration.
The men were son exhausted and were running out of food. The weather conditions were terrible. Scott started to realise their desperate situation: "Amongst ourselves we are very cheerful,but what each man feels in his heart I can only guess.Putting on our shoes in the morning is getting slower and slower."
Despite this,on their way back they found time to look for rocks and fossils.They carried 20 kilos of rocks all the way with them. Later,these rocks proved that at one time in the distant past Antarctica was covered by plants.However,disaster soon struck. Edgar Evans had terrible frostbite and died after a bad fall.
The next to go was Captain Oates,who was having great difficulty walking. Scott recorded his death:"He said,'I am just going outside and I may be some time.' We knew that poor Oates was walking to his death, but though we tried to stop him, we knew that it was the act of a brave man and an English gentleman. We all hope to meet the end with a similar spirit, and certainly the end is not far."
Scott and two companions carried on and got withineleven miles of one of their food depots. But then a terrible storm started and they could not leave their tent. Scott spent some of his last hours writing. He wrote a letter full of sadness to his wife Kathleen:"To my Widow,I could tell you lots and lots about this journey. What stories you would have for the boy..But what a price to pay."
Scott's final diary entry told the story of their end:"The depot is only 11 miles away, but I do not think we can hope for any better things now. We are getting weaker and weaker and he end can't be far. It seems a pity,but I do not think I can write more."
The news of Scott's death shocked the world. He had failed to win the race to the Pole, but the remarkable courage shown by Captain Scott and his men made tham into heroes.

n August 1996, Peter Hessler, a young American teacher of English, arrived in the town of Fuling on the Yangtze River. He and a colleague were to spend two years there teaching English at a teacher training college. They were the only foreigners in the town. The first semester finished at the end of January and they had four weeks off for the Spring Festival. They could go anywhere they wished. They decided to take a boat downstream. We decided to buy tickets for the Jiangyou boat. 我們打算買到「江油號」的船票。 Our colleagues said, 「You shouldn』t go on those ships. They are very crowded. They are mainly for goods and people trading along the river. 同事們說:「你們不要坐那種船。它們太擁擠,主要是用來運貨的。乘客多事沿江做生意的人。 They don』t stop at the temples and there won』t be any other foreigners.」 That sounded fine to me. 那些船不停靠廟宇,也不會有別的外國遊人乘坐。」我覺得聽起來還不錯。 We just had to show our passports and they let us get on the boat.我們出示護照後邊上了船。 We left the docks on a beautiful afternoon. The sun was shining brightly as we sailed downstream through a hilly region. 在一個美麗的午後,我們離開碼頭。當我們順流而下穿過山區的時候,陽光很燦爛。 Men rode bamboo rafts along the river』s edge and coal boats went past. 男人們乘坐著江邊的竹筏,運煤的小船來來往往。 As the sun set we docked at Feng. We could see the sun setting behind the white pagoda. It was beautiful. 太陽落山時,我們的船在豐都靠岸。我們目睹太陽在白塔後西沉,美麗極了。 We slept through the first gorge, which is called the Qutang Gorge. 穿過長江第一峽——翟塘峽時,我們正在睡夢中。 The gorge narrows to 350 feet as the river rushes through the tow-mile-high mountains. 江水在兩英里高峰巒間奔流,峽谷狹窄處只有350英尺。 「Oh, well,」 my friend said, 「at least we have two more left.」 我朋友說;「至少我們還能看見另外兩個峽谷」。 At Wushan we made a detour up the Daning River to see some of the smaller gorges. 船到巫山時,我們繞道溯游大寧河,觀賞了幾處小峽谷。 The next day we went through the ig gorges on the Yangtze River. It was a lovely morning as we went through the Wu Gorge. 第二天,我們經過了長江的大峽谷。在一個美麗的上午輪船駛過巫峽。 We passed the Xiang River, home of Qu Yuan, the 3rd century BC poet. There was so much history long the Yangtze River. 我們還經過了湘江,那是公元前三世紀一位詩人——屈原的家鄉。 Every rock looked like a person or animal, every stream that joined the great river carried its legends, every hill was heavy with the past. 長江有太多的歷史。塊塊巨石形象各異,條條支流都流淌著傳說,座座小山承載著過往。 As we came out of the third gorge, the Xiling Gorge, we sailed into the construction site of the dam. 穿過長江三峽+西陵峽後,輪船駛入大壩建設處的江面。 All the passengers came on deck. We took pictures and pointed at the site, but we weren』t allowed to get off the boat. 所有乘客都上了甲板,大家拍照片,對著工地指指點點,但不可以下船。 The Chinese flag was blowing in the wind. On a distant mountain was a sign in 20-foot characters. 「Build the Three Gorges Dam, Exploit the Yangtze River,」 it said.
