(A)
Covered by snow and ice, Antarctica(南极洲) is the coldest and most mysterious continent on earth. However, this wild place still attracts people who wish to go there.
The Antarctic (南极地区) is a good place to research the land, ocean, air, ice shelves and biology. For example, Professor Sun Liguang from the University of Science and Technology of China is studying penguins and their relation to climate change. The Antarctic also has rich resources of coal, fresh water and seafood.
More than 30 countries have built research stations in the Antarctic. During the past 40 years, China has built five stations: Changcheng, Zhongshan, Taishan, Kunlun and Qinling. China plans to build the sixth one in the future.
With an annual (年度的) average temperature of about -32℃ in the Antarctic, scientists there don't have many choices for travelling. If the weather is good, scientists will go outside to collect samples of water, rocks and other things. But when it's too cold or windy outside, which happens quite often, they have to stay indoors. There are all kinds of laboratories at their stations.
However, they do more than just research. The scientists there have found many ways to relax. At Zhongshan Station, for example, there is a field where they can play basketball, volleyball and badminton. Zhongshan Station is not far from stations built by Russia, India and Australia. Sometimes, people from the four stations will meet together and hold big parties and sports events.
Although life in the Antarctic can be hard, people there get to learn more about the unknown world and enjoy the beauty of nature. That might be the best part of visiting the area.
