　　The first person to reach the South Pole was Roald Amundsen, a Norwegian explorer. Amundsen was horn in Borge, near Oslo, Norway. He attended the University of Christiania and then joined the Norwegian navy.

　　Amundsen made a three-year expedition in the Arctic beginning in 1903. He was the first to navigate (船行于)Northwest Passage, a northern water route from the Atlantic to the Pacific. But Amundsen's greatest voyage began in 1910, at the other end of the Earth. He intended to go to the North Pole, but he heard that Robert Peary had already reached it. So instead Amundsen headed to the South Pole in his ship. He learned that a British expedition, let by Robert F. Scott, was also on its way there. Amundsen reached Antarctic in January, 1911. He and his men had to wait out the bitter cold, windy winter on the edge of the ice before they could head for the South Pole.

　　In October, they set out, with 52 well-trained dogs to pull their sledges. On the way to the Pole, they climbed glaciers(冰山), went-around huge cracks in the ice, and survived freezing blizzards(大风雪). Finally, on December 14,1911, Amundsen placed the Norwegian flag at the South Pole. Scott and his men found the flag there when they reached the Pole a month after Amundsen's party.

　　Amundsen died in the Arctic, 17 years later. He disappeared while making an air search for another explorer, Umber, to Nubile.
