资源简介

In the summer of 2018, I decided to do a solo expedition (独自探险) across Antarctica. To get some 41 , I did a two-week training course. I learned all the 42 : how to camp in the snow, how to pull a sled and what clothing to wear. In October, I flew to Antarctica from Punta Arenas. I’d allowed 70 days, which would make it the longest 43 one-way expedition across Antarctica
I only took 44 .I didn’t even take a hairbrush. The first few days were 45 .The winds were about 60 mph, and my sled weighed 120 kg. Even if the visibility is good, you can’t 46 much — it’s a white horizon. I was on the move for 13 to 15 hours a day.
Then, I found the conditions to be much worse. There was more sastrugi (雪脊) and it felt colder. The last 40 hours were really hard. I 47 about 14 times every two hours. As a result, I fell behind 48 .In the end, I 49 922 miles and fell more than 100 miles short of my goal. Towards the end of my trip, a helicopter flew to pick me up. The 50 I felt when I saw the dot in the distance was unbelievable.
It took me a while to be 51 of what I’d achieved, because I had failed to reach my 52 goal, but I’ve learned it’s 53 to move the goalposts. I don’t agree with the idea of conquering (征服) somewhere. You treat places with 54 and hope they’ll allow you 55 passage.

【主题推导】
这篇文章描写作者为了南极冒险做了一系列事情，是一篇记叙文，文章通过一系列的时间线索反映作者在独自冒险的心理反映。然而到最后作者利用最后一段发出人生的感慨。具体可以留意一下红色标注的时间状语。

D选项lucky adj.幸运的，走运的；吉祥的

她在人群里找来找去，但没看见他。
【逻辑分析】
这里考察的是让步的行文逻辑，让步从句提到即使能见度visibility很好，也是看得不清晰，因为white horizon,全是白茫茫的一片所以D选项see当选

Towards the end of my trip, a helicopter flew to pick me up.
旅行快结束时，一架直升机飞来接我。

第三步，再次回顾原文，逐个空根据关键词以及行文逻辑逐个验证，全文进行视译（视译：是不用动笔头只需要心里面过一遍译文就可以了）注意一下带颜色标注的线索词汇。
In the summer of 2018, I decided to do a solo expedition (独自探险) across Antarctica. To get some experience, I did a two-week training course. I learned all the basics: how to camp in the snow, how to pull a sled and what clothing to wear. In October, I flew to Antarctica from Punta Arenas. I’d allowed 70 days, which would make it the longest unsupported one-way expedition across Antarctica
2018年夏天，我决定进行一次穿越南极洲的单人探险(独自探险)。为了获得一些经验，我参加了一个为期两周的培训课程。我学会了所有的基本知识:如何在雪地里露营，如何拉雪橇，以及该穿什么衣服。10月，我从蓬塔阿雷纳斯飞往南极洲。我安排了70天的时间，这将使它成为穿越南极洲最长的无支持的单程探险
I only took necessities .I didn’t even take a hairbrush. The first few days were tough.The winds were about 60 mph, and my sled weighed 120 kg. Even if the visibility is good, you can’t see much — it’s a white horizon. I was on the move for 13 to 15 hours a day.
我只带了必需品，连梳子都没带。最初的几天很难熬。风速约为每小时60英里，我的雪橇重达120公斤。即使能见度很好，你也看不清多少东西——那是一片白色的地平线。我每天要忙活13到15个小时。
Then, I found the conditions to be much worse. There was more sastrugi (雪脊) and it felt colder. The last 40 hours were really hard. I fell over about 14 times every two hours. As a result, I fell behind schedule.In the end, I cover 922 miles and fell more than 100 miles short of my goal. Towards the end of my trip, a helicopter flew to pick me up. The relief I felt when I saw the dot in the distance was unbelievable.
然后，我发现情况更糟了。有更多的雪脊，感觉更冷。过去的40个小时真的很难熬。我每两个小时摔倒14次。结果，我落后于计划。最后，我跑了922英里，距离我的目标还差100多英里。旅行快结束时，一架直升机飞来接我。当我看到远处的那个点时，我感到如释重负，真是难以置信。
It took me a while to be proud of what I’d achieved, because I had failed to reach my initial goal, but I’ve learned it’s acceptable to move the goalposts. I don’t agree with the idea of conquering (征服) somewhere. You treat places with respect and hope they’ll allow you safe passage.
我花了一段时间才为自己取得的成就感到自豪，因为我没有达到最初的目标，但我学会了改变目标是可以接受的。我不同意征服(征服)某处的想法。你尊重地方，希望他们能让你安全通过。
