每日背诵第三期25
For centuries, Europeans wondered about the existence of a South-Polar continent, but no one actually knew for certain Antarctica was there until 1820 when European explorers "discovered" it. Since then, men have gone to Antarctica in search of adventure. Testing their abilities, several teams of explorers set out in 1911 to be the first men to stand at the South Pole. Norwegian Roald Amundsen and his men reached the pole; so did Robert F. Scott, an Englishman, but he and his team died on the return trip.
几个世纪以来，欧洲人一直在猜测是否存在南极洲，直到1820年欧洲的探险家"发现"了它，人们才真正确定南极洲的存在。从那以后，人们开始去南极洲探险。1911年，几支探险队为了验证自己的能力出发去南极洲，希望能成为站在南极极点的先锋。挪威人罗德·阿蒙森和队友抵达了极点。英国人罗伯特·F·斯科特也做到了，不过他和他的队友却在回程中不幸丧生。
