Race to The Pole
奔向南极的比赛
On 1 June, 1910, Captain Robert Falcon Scott left London to begin his journey to Antarctica. While he was on the way to Antarctica, he received a message from the Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen which said he was going south, too. Then the race to the South Pole began!
1910年6月1日，罗伯特·福尔肯·斯科特上校离开了伦敦，开始了去南极洲的行程。在去往南极洲的途中，他收到了挪威探险家罗尔德·阿蒙森的一封信，信中说他也要去南极洲。于是，奔向南极的赛跑就开始了！
During the polar summer of 1910—1911, both teams organised food bases in preparation for their journeys the next year. Then came the total darkness of the polar winter. Scott and Amundsen waited anxiously for spring.
在1910—1911年的极地的夏季，两支队伍都建了食品储备点，为来年的旅程做准备。极地的冬季来临，四处一片黑暗。斯科特和阿蒙森焦急地等待春天的到来。
本句为完全倒装句，谓语动词came位于主语之前。正常语序为: The total darkness of the polar winter came then.
考点提炼:副词提前引起的完全倒装
当here,there,now,then,in,out,down,up,off,away等表示地点、时间和方位的 副词位于句首，谓语动词是be,come,go,be,lie,stand等，且主语是名词时，句子用 完全倒装结构（即谓语部分全部移至主语之前）。其中谓语动词多用一般现在时或 者一般过去时，而不用进行时态。
◆Now comes your turn.现在轮到你了。
◆There rose before us the great pyramid.雄伟的金字塔矗立在我们面前。
◆In came the teacher,with a book in his hand.老师进来了，手里拿着一本书。
◆Away flew the bird,鸟飞走了。
◆Up went the rocket into the air,火箭升空了。
特别提醒
在上述情况中，若主语是代词，句子不用完全倒装结构。
◆一Where is the key' 钥匙在哪儿？
◆一Here it is.在这里。
Amundsen was the first to leave on 8 September, 1911. He had teams of dogs pulling the sledges and all his men were on skis. Because of this, he made rapid progress. Scott left on 1 November and soon had problems. First, his two sledges broke down and then the horses began to have serious difficulties with the snow and the cold. After a while, Scott and his men had to push the sledges themselves.
1911年9月8日，阿蒙森第一个动身。他用几队狗拉雪橇，所有的队员都在滑雪板上行进。因此，他进展很快。11月1日，斯科特动身，但很快就出现了问题。先是他的两辆雪橇坏了，后来马匹开始在大雪和严寒的天气下出现严重问题。过了一阵子，斯科特和他的队员不得不自己推雪橇。
