UNIT 4 ADVERSITY AND COURAGE 逆境与勇气 A SUCCESSFUL FAILURE一次成功的失败 Perce Blackborow joined an expedition with Sir Ernest Shackleton to Antarctica on the ship Endurance in 1914. Shackleton was one of the most famous explorers of his day and it was considered a great honor to be part of his expeditions. Below are some of Blackborows diary entries. 珀西·布莱克博罗于1914年加入欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士的“坚忍”号南极探险之旅。沙克尔顿是他那个时代最著名的探险家之一，参加他的探险活动被认为是一种极大的荣誉。以下是布莱克伯罗的一些日记。 Well, it so happened that one morning I bought a newspaper and read the advertisement about the Antarctic expedition. An expedition to the South Pole with the great Sir Ernest Shackleton-this is the adventure that I have been dreaming of. And I was ready for it. 嗯，（非常）碰巧有天早上我买了份报纸，看到了有关南极探险的广告。 与伟大的欧内斯特·沙克尔顿爵士一起去南极探险，这是我一直梦寐以求的探险。我已经做好了准备。 At the age of 19, I am fit and full of vigour.

He assigned me to be a steward, and I now serve meals for twenty-eight men, three times a day. How everyone will envy me when I come back and tell them about the amazing places I have been to！ 不幸的是，我们出发三天后，我就被发现了。沙克尔顿不想返航（把我送回），所以他给了我一份工作，但他还向我保证，“如果有人必须被吃掉，那么你将是第一个！”他派我去当服务员，我现在为二十八个人一天做三次饭。 当我回来告诉大家我去过的那些神奇地方时，大家会多么羡慕我啊！ The journey has not been easy. Endurance became stuck in the ice as we approached Antarctica. The ice froze around us and we were well and truly stuck! We saw the ship get crushed by the ice. And when the ship sank, our hearts san
