9．I was going to die in Antarctica，I was certain．An image of my frost-covered body，pale and lifeless，filled my mind as I glanced around．In all directions the empty wilderness of Antarctica stretched away from me，the only feature on the landscape was the division between snow and sky．I gazed sadly at my team．They were rapidly disappearing over the horizon．
I was leading an expedition （探险） attempting to reach the south pole．The team was made up of ordinary women from all around the world-from Jamaica，India，Singapore and Cyprus-many of whom had never seen snow，or spent a night in a tent，before we set off．Our aim was to be the most international all-female team to reach die South Pole．
As I watched，the rest of die team hat marched on，unaware that I was not with them．By the time I realized that my sledge was firmly trapped，the team were already a long way ahead of me．I called out to Era，my teammate，"Era!Stop I"
Getting no response I called again，but my shouts were carried away in the opposite direction by the wind．Seconds passed．Nothing．I was gradually being left alone，completely defenseless against the low temperatures of Antarctica．
My strength increased when I thought of a cold，lonely death．I pulled again my sledge，which moved a little．I removed the ice with my ski-pole and boot，desperately trying to break the sledge free．The sledge shot forward，knocking me off balance．I struggled to my feet and set off after the team．
I caught up just as Reena，my teammate from India，looked behind her and noticed there was one person missing．She swung around on her skis．in shock and spotted me in the near distance．
As we continued，my panic slowly faded．For the rest of the day．each of the team was glancing over their shoulder every few minutes．They were not going to risk losing me again．

6．It was the summer of 1936．The Olympic Games were being held in Berlin．I had trained，sweated and disciplined myself for 6years on the running broad jump．A year before，as a college student at the Ohio State，I'd set the world's record of 26feet 8 1/4inches．Nearly everyone expected me to win．
I was in for a surprise．When the time came for the broad-jump trials，I was shocked to see a tall boy hitting the pit （坑） at almost 26feet on his practice leaps．He turned out to be a German named Luz Long．He had easily qualified for the finals on his first attempt．
A nervous athlete is an athlete who will make mistakes．I fouled （犯规） twice on my qualifying jumps．Walking a few yards from the pit，I kicked at the dirt disgustedly．Suddenly I felt a hand on my shoulder．I turned to look into the friendly blue eyes of Luz Long．"Hi，I'm Luz Long．I don't think we've met．""Glad to meet you，"I said．Then，trying to hide my nervousness，I added，"How are you？""I'm fine．Something must be eating you．You should be able to qualify with your eyes closed．"He said．
He seemed to understand my nervousness，and took pains to reassure me．Finally，seeing that I had calmed down somewhat，he said，"What does it matter if you're not the first in the trials？Tomorrow is what counts．"All the tension left my body as the truth of what he said hit me．Confidently I qualified with almost a foot to spare．
Luz broke his own record and pushed me on to a peak performance．The instant I landed from my final jump-the one which set the Olympic record of 26feet 5 1/16inches-he was at my side，congratulating me．
