Jordan Maguire always wanted to go to the North Pole . In April 2006, his dream came true. The
15-year-old Scottish native traveled to the Pole with a team of six people. He was the youngest boy
ever to visit the area(the youngest person ever to reach the North Pole is Alicia Hempleman-Adams.
She made the trip in 2005 at age 15)
Jordan and his team started their walk to the North Pole in Northern Russia. The trip was not easy.
The group skied 10 hours every day. The biggest challenge was the weather. But there were other
dangers, too(for example, polar bears and large pieces of ice). On the eighth day, the team reached
the North Pole. In total, they traveled 111 miles(178 kilometres). As part of the trip, Jordan also made
money(?19,000) for the children’s charity(慈善) WellChild.

There is a special kind of hotel in Quebec, Canada. It has a bar, a church, a shop and a small theater. These things are not unusual. But this hotel is only open from January till March every year. Why? Because it is made of ice and snow! When the weather gets warm, the hotel melts(融化) and closes. Every winter, the hotel owners build the hotel again.
Everything in the Ice Hotel is made of ice and snow. All the furniture, such as the tables and chairs, is made of ice. Even the beds are made of ice! So people use special sleeping bags on the ice beds. Inside the ice hotel, the temperature is about 27°F(-3°C)
When people sleep, the sleeping bags keep them warm. In the morning, they can have a hot breakfast. After breakfast, people can enjoy winter activities. They can go skiing or ice fishing. Or they can go skating in the dining room. At the end of the day, people can relax at the bar. They can have drinks in glasses made of ice.
