The Youngest Skier To The South Pole
On Friday December 9th, a 16-year-old skier, Ameba Hempleman-Adamsreached the South Pole with her father after skiing 97 miles and spending 17nights on the ice. On the final day they skied 14 miles and afterwards Ameba said she felt "elated and tired" on reaching the South Pole.
"The biggest challenges were the freezing cold and eating only dried food. The best bit has been experiencing what Dad does on expeditions (探险). It's the first time I've been on a difficult long journey with him and now I know what it's like. The trip brought me closer to Dad, but I also had to put up with his snoring (鼾声) which was terrible."
She added, "Would I do it again? I'm not sure. I'll have to think about that after a few nights' sleep! At times it's been really hard: I've got aching shoulders, and my back's been sore from pulling my sledge (雪橇), I've got blisters (水泡) on my feet from the boots and I've got a cold burn on my nose from my sunglasses."
She said the most extraordinary part of the trip had been the breath taking scenery and the sense of isolation in the Antarctic landscape. "I've really missed my friends while I've been away and want to thank them for all their messages of support."
Friends and relatives who posted comments on Ameba's expedition website paid tribute (致敬) to her positive attitude which, they said, would be an inspiration to others.
Her father, David, said "Ameba has done amazing well. I'm proud of her. She showed real determination. She was tough and she pulled her sledge the whole way. It was a special experience to share those 97 miles with her."
假如你是建华中学 学生王新,在网上看到了Ameba的故事,决定给她写封邮件,交流分享你的想法。内容包括:1)你对她的旅行有何看法并说明原因;2)分享你的旅行经历。
