[00:06.68]Chapter 5 A Long Cold Winter [00:12.40]It was dark for four months． [00:16.00]Outside the wooden house at Framheim, [00:20.01]it was often －60°Centigrade． [00:25.75]The dogs lived in warm holes under the snow． [00:30.90]The men stayed in the house, [00:33.56]and worked in their rooms under the snow． [00:39.05]The skis and sledges came from the best shops in Norway, [00:44.51]but Bjaaland wasn't happy with them． [00:48.25]He changed a lot of things on the skis and sledges． [00:53.58]Soon the sledges were stronger than before． [00:57.95]The skis were better and faster,too． [01:02.45]All the Norwegians worked hard． [01:07.54]They looked after their dogs, [01:09.72]and worked on their equipment-the sledges,skis,tents． [01:16.71]Every day they thought about their journey to the Pole, [01:21.09]and talked about it． [01:23.62]And every day,Amundsen thought about Scott． [01:29.39]One day,in midwinter, [01:32.12]he talked to his men． [01:35.48]'Let's start early,before Scott,' [01:39.28]Amundsen said．'Remember,Scott has more men than us, [01:45.19]and he has motor sledges,too. [01:48.63]Perhaps they can go faster than us．' [01:52.39]Bjaaland laughed．'Oh no, [01:55.76]they can't go faster than me,' [01:58.00]he said．'On snow, [02:00.62]nothing can go faster than a good man on skis．' [02:06.10]'We don't know,'Amundsen said． [02:09.95]'You're the best skier in Norway, [02:12.60]but you get tired,and dogs get tired,too． [02:17.74]Motor sledges don't get tired． [02:21.29]They can go all day and all night．' [02:25.46]Johansen laughed angrily． [02:28.31]'That's stupid,'he said． [02:31.51]'Perhaps the motor sledges can go all night, [02:34.97]but the Englishmen can't． [02:38.46]The English can't win,Roald- [02:42.36]they don't understand snow,but we do． [02:47.62]And they're too slow．' [02:51.17]'Perhaps,'Amundsen said． [02:54.11]'But I want to win this race． [02:57.21]So we're going to start early! [03:01.01]Do you understand?' [03:03.71]It was quiet and warm inside Framheim． [03:08.05]Bjaaland looked at Amundsen, [03:11.18]and thought about the long, [03:13.06]cold journey in front of him． [03:16.72]He thought about the dogs in their holes under the snow, [03:21.37]and listened to the wind over the house． [03:25.52]'When,Roald?'he said quietly． [03:31.36]'On August 24th． [03:33.95]The sun comes back on that day． [03:37.29]We start then．' [03:40.67]'But we can't!'Johansen said． [03:44.66]He looked angry,and unhappy． [03:47.85]'That's too early! [03:50.44]We can't start then-it's dangerous and stupid!' [03:57.38]Amundsen looked at Johansen coldly． [04:01.27]'You're wrong,Johansen,' [04:03.71]he said．'We want to win,remember? [04:08.56]So we start on August 24th．' [04:13.32]Bjaaland listened to the winter wind outside． [04:20.11]In Scott's camp,at Cape Evans, [04:23.97]no one talked about Amundsen and no one worked hard． [04:30.49]They had good food, [04:32.17]and they played football on the snow． [04:36.45]They wrote a newspaper- [04:38.44]The south Polar Times-and read books． [04:43.66]No one learnt to ski,no one worked on the motor sledges． [04:49.47]Twice,men went for long journeys across the snow． [04:54.47]They walked,and pulled the sledges themselves． [04:58.88]Oates stayed at Cape Evans and looked after his ponies． [05:04.46]Over the window in Cape Evans, [05:08.21]Scott put a map of Antarctica． [05:12.18]With a pen,he made a line from Cape Evans to the South Pole, [05:18.42]and he put a little Britisn Flag at the Pole． [05:23.32]Under the map,Scott wrote the day for the start of their journey． [05:30.18]We start on November 3rd,he wrote．
