At the bottom of the world, in the South Polar Regions, Admiral Byrd and his men lived for fourteen months
在世界的底端，也就是南极地区，海军上将伯德和他的队员居住了14个月之久。
where no man had ever been able to stay more than a month or two.
此前还从来没有人能在那里待上一到两个月。
During a part of this time it was impossible for them to leave or for anyone to get to them.
在其中的一段时间里，他们无法离开，别人也无法到他们那里去。
Yet they listened to music and messages from all over the world,
然而他们可以听到来自世界各地的音乐和信息。
and almost every day they sent out to the world the story of what they were doing.
而且，他们几乎每天都在向全世界讲述他们正在做的事情。
At the Bottom of the World
在世界的底端
When the Byrd expedition sailed from New York City to Antarctica, it carried a library of a thousand volumes.
伯德探险队从纽约扬帆起航前往南极时，携带了由上千本书组成的一个图书馆。
This library was for the most part a collection of adventure stories which Admiral Byrd had selected to give pleasure to his men through the long darkness of the antarctic night.
其中大部分书籍都是伯德上将特意为自己的队员挑选的历险故事，大家可以借此打发南极的漫漫长夜。
