It was dark for four months. Outside the wooden house at Framheim, it was often -60°Centigrade. (1)+(2)
The skis and sledges came from the best shops in Norway, but Bjaaland wasn't happy with them. (3) The skis were better and faster, too.
All the Norwegians worked hard. (4) —the sledges, skis, tents. Every day they thought about their journey to the Pole, and talked about it. And every day, Amundsen thought about Scott. One day, in midwinter, he talked to his men.
'Let's start early, before Scott,' Amundsen said. 'Remember, Scott has more men than us, and he has motor sledges, too. Perhaps they can go faster than us.'
Bjaaland laughed. 'Oh no, they can't go faster than me,' he said. ' (5) '
'We don't know,' Amundsen said. 'You're the best skier in Norway, but you get tired, and dogs get tired, too. Motor sledges don't get tired. They can go all day and all night. '
Johansen laughed angrily. 'That's stupid,' he said. 'Perhaps the motor sledges can go all night, but the Englishmen can't. The English can't win, Roald—they don't understand snow, but we do. And they're too slow.'
'Perhaps,' Amundsen said. 'But I want to win this race. So we're going to start early! Do you understand?'

The dogs lived in warm holes under the snow. The men stayed in the house, and worked in their rooms under the snow.
He changed a lot of things on the skis and sledges. Soon the sledges were stronger than before.
They looked after their dogs, and worked on their equipment
On snow, nothing can go faster than a good man on skis.
4個月中不見天日,一片昏暗。在弗雷門海姆木屋外面,氣溫低到-60℃。狗兒們生活在溫暖的雪洞里。眾人則留在木屋里,在白雪覆蓋下的房間里,忙著各自的活兒。
盡管滑雪板與雪橇都是從挪威最好的商店內(nèi)購買的,但是比阿蘭德對這些設(shè)備并不滿意。于是,他在滑雪板與雪橇上換了許多部件。一會兒功夫雪橇變得結(jié)實多了。滑雪板變得更好使更快了。
所有這些挪威人干活兒都很賣力。他們照顧狗群,改良設(shè)備:雪橇、滑雪板、帳篷。每天,他們都想著遠赴南極的旅程,談?wù)撝@次旅程。每天,阿蒙森腦子里都裝著斯科特。隆冬里的一天,他對眾人說:
“我們早些走,趕在斯科特之前?!卑⒚缮f,“別忘了,斯科特的人比我們多,他還有機動雪橇。所以,他們可能比我們快。”
比阿蘭德大笑起來?!鞍?,不,他們不可能比我快,”他說,“在雪地上,沒有任何東西能快過優(yōu)秀的滑雪者?!?
“很難料定。”阿蒙森說,“你雖是挪威最優(yōu)秀的滑雪者,但是也有累乏的時候,狗也一樣。而機動雪橇則不會累,它能沒日沒夜地跑個不停。”
約翰森怒極而笑?!罢娲?,”他說,“也許機動雪橇可以整夜不停地跑,但是英國人不能??!英國人不可能贏,羅阿爾。他們不懂雪性,而我們懂。而且他們行進速度非常緩慢?!?
“也許如此,”阿蒙森說,“無論如何我想贏得這次競賽,所以我們要早些出發(fā)!你們理解嗎?”
