the North Pole - Северный полюс;

4. The book we are going to read is "The Coldest Place on Earth" [:] by Tim Vicary.

In the summer of 1910 (nineteen-ten), a race began. A race to be the first man at the South Pole, in Antarctica. Robert Falcon ['f:lkn] Scott, an Englishman, lelf London in his ship, the 'Terra Nova', began the long journey south. Five days later, another ship, 'Fram', also began to travel south. And on this ship was Roald Amundsen, a Norwegian [n:'wi:n].

CHAPTER ONE

The race began in the summer of 1910.
On June 1st, in London, a black ship, the 'Terra Nova', went down the river Thames to the sea. Thousands of people stood by the river to watch it. They were all excited and happy.	Thames [temz] - Темза (река); by зд. - у;
On the 'Terra Nova', Captain Robert Falcon ['f:lkn] Scott smiled quietly. It was a very important day for him. He was a strong man, not very tall, in the blue clothes of a captain. He was forty-one years old, but he had a young face, like a boy. His eyes were dark and quiet.	captain ['kptin] - капитан; clothes [kluz] - одежда; tall [t:l] - высокий;
One man on the ship, Titus Oates ['taits uts], smiled at Scott.
"What an exciting day, Captain!" he said. "Look at those people! I feel like an important man!"
Scott laughed. "You are important, Titus," he said. "And you're going to be famous, too. We all are. Do you see this flag?" He looked at the big British flag at the back of the ship, and smiled at Oates. "That flag is coming with us," he said. "In the Antarctic, I'm going to carry it under my clothes. We're going to be the first men at the South Pole, and that flag is going to be first, too!"	carry ['kri] - нести, вести;
* * * Five days later, on June 6th, a man opened the door of his wooden house in Norway. He was a tall man, with a long face. He waited outside the house for a minute. Everything was very quiet. He could see no houses, only mountains, trees, and water. It was nearly dark. The sky was black over the mountains.	Norway ['n:wei] - Норвегия; tall [t:l] - высокий; mountain ['mauntin] - гора; nearly ['nili] - почти;
The man smiled, and walked quickly away from the house, down to the sea. In the water, a big wooden ship waited for him. The man got onto the ship, and talked and laughed quietly with his friends.
The ship's name was 'Fram', and the man was Roald Amundsen [ruld 'a:munsn]. The Fram was the most beautiful ship on earth, Amundsen thought. His friends were the best skiers on earth, too. One of them, Olav Bjaal ['u:lv bj:l], smiled at him.
"North Pole, here we come, Capitain," he said.
"Yes. Amundsen said. His friends could not see his face in the dark. "'Fram' is going to the Arctic."
Everyone on the 'Fram' was ready to go to the North Pole, to the Arctic. Amunsen wanted to go there, too. But first he wanted to go South. His friends didn't know that.	ready ['redi] - готов;
At midnight on June 6th, the 'Fram' moved quietly away from Amundsen's house, out to the sea.	midnight ['midnait] - полночь;

CHAPTER TWO

The 'Fram' went to an island in the south of Norway. It was a very little island, with only one small wooden house, two trees - and nearly a hundred dogs.	nearly ['nili] - почти;
"Look at that!" Bjaalnd said. "It's an island of dogs! There are dogs in the water, near the trees, on the house - dogs everywhere!"
Two men came out of the house. "Hassel [hsl]! Lindstroem! ['lindstr:m]" Amundsen said. "It's good to see you! How many dogs do you have for me?"
"Ninety-nine, Roald," said Hassel. "The best ninety-nine dogs from Greenland. And they're very happy! They don't work; they just eat and play all day! They're having a wonderful summer here!"
"Good, good." Amundsen laughed. "But that's finished now. Hey, Bjaaland! Stop laughing - come down here and help me. Let's get all these dogs onto the ship!"
It was not easy. The dogs were fat and strong, and they didn't want to go on the ship. But at last, after three hours' hard work, all ninety-nine were on the ship, and the 'Fram' went out to sea again.
The men were not happy. The weather was bad, the dogs were dirty, and some of the men were ill. They began to ask questions.
"Why are we bringing dogs with us?" asked one man, Johansen ['ju:hnsn]. "We're going thousands of kilometres south, past Cape Horn, and then north to Alaska?"	Сape Horn [keip h:n] - мыс Горн;
"Don't ask me," said his friend, Helmer Hanssen, "I don't understand it."
The men talked for a long time. Then, on September 9th, Amundsen called everyone to the back of the ship. He stood quietly and looked at them. Behind him was a big map. It was not a map of the Arctic. It was a map of Antarctica.
Bjaaland looked at Helmer Hanssen ['helmr 'hnsn], and laughed. Then Amundsen began to speak.
"Boys," he said. "I know you are unhappy. You often ask me difficult questions, and I don't answer. Well, I'm going to answer all those questions now, today.
"We began to work for this journey two years ago. Then, we wanted to be the first men at the North Pole. But last year, Peary ['piri], an American, found the North Pole. So America was first to the North Pole, not Norway. We're going there, but we're too late."	journey [':ni] - путешествие;
"I don't understand this," Bjaaland thought. "Why is Amundsen talking about the North Pole, with a map of Antarctica behind him?"
Amundsen stopped for a minute, and looked at all the men slowly. No one said anything.
"We have to go for a long way south before we get to Alaska," he said. "Very near Antarctica, you know. And Captain Scott, the Englishman, is going to the South Pole this year. He wants to put his British flag there. An American flag at the North Pole, a British flag at the South Pole."	way [wei] - путь;
Bjaaland began to understand. He started to smile and couldn't stop. He was warm and excited.
"Well, boys," Amundsen said slowly. "Do we want the British to put there flag at the South Pole first? How fast can we travel? We have a lot of dogs, and some of the most wonderful skiers on earth - Bjaaland here is the best in Norway! So I have an idea, boys. Let's go to the South Pole, and put the Norwegian flag there before the British! What do you say?"	Norwegian [n:'win] - норвежский;
For a minute or two it was very quiet. Amundsen waited, and the men watched him and thought. Then Bjaaland laughed.
"Yes!" he said. "Why not? It's a ski race, isn't it, and the English can't ski! It's a wonderful idea, of course! Let's go!"	idea [ai'di] - идея.
