The first confirmed (证实) landing was in the5 mid-1890s.Over the next few years, several men tried but failed to reach the South Pole, which is the Earthssouthernmost point.Finally, a team led by Norwegian Roald Amundsen reached the South Poe in 1911. By then, countriesaround the world were becoming more and more interested in the frozen continent, and soon seven nations:Argentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom, had laid claim to parts ofAntarctica.As so many nations had made a claim to territory in Antarctica, it was clear that fighting might break out.Diplomats (外交官) from different countries wanted to stop a war from starting, so they began talking about atreaty for Antarctica. A treaty is a written agreement signed by two or more nations.Several countries had already set up research stations in Antarctica where scientists could live and work.Most scientists worked during the summer months when it was not as cold as in winter. Scientists hoped atreaty would allow them to continue their work and to exchange information with scientists from othercountries.88. Antarctica is the largest continent on Earth, isnt it?（1分）89.
