Chapter 3 The Ponies
‘Win the race to the South Pole,of course,'the newspaper man said.‘It's a race between you and Amundsen,now.Look at this!'He gave a newspaper to Scott.
Scott looked at it.It said:
Scott's face went white.‘Give me that!'he said.He took the newspaper and read it carefully.The newspaper man watched him,and waited.‘Well,Captain Scott,'he
said at last.'Who's going to win this race?Tell me that!'
“当然是赢得前往南极的竞赛。”报社记者说。“现在这个竞赛在你与阿蒙森之间展开。瞧!”他将一份报纸递给斯科特。斯科特看着报纸。报上是这样写的:
弗雷门号正与斯科特争先到达南极
阿蒙森说:“我们将赢得比赛!”
斯科特脸色变得苍白。“给我报纸!”他说。他拿过报纸认真阅读。记者观察着他,期待着。“那么,斯科特队长,”他最终开口了,“谁将赢得这场比赛?请告诉我!”
报纸上的内容“弗雷门号正与斯科特争先到达南极,阿蒙森说:‘我们将赢得比赛’”没有英文原版,请校正。
