Helen Thayer,one of the greatest explorers of the 20th century,loves challenges.She says,“I like to see what’s on the other side of the hill.” She has gone almost everywhere to do that.
In 1988,at the age of 50,she became the first woman to travel alone to the North Pole.She pulled her own sled(雪橇) piled with 160 pounds of supplies,and during her trip no one brought her fresh supplies.Accompanied(陪伴) only by her dog Charlie,she survived cold weather and meetings with polar bears.In fact,Charlie saved her life when one of them attacked her.Near the end of her trip,a forceful wind blew away the majority of her supplies.The last week of the trip,she survived on a handful of nuts and a little water each day.
Helen goes to challenging places not only for adventure,but also for education.Before her Arctic journey,she started a website called Adventure Classroom.On the site,she shares her adventures in order to motivate(激发) students.She explains,“although kids often see the world in a negative way,without hope for their future,we work to inspire them to set goals,plan for success and never give up...”
