The Antarctica is actually a desert. It is the only continent on the earth without a river or lake.
The Antarctica is ice all year round. The warmest temperature ever recorded there is zero, at the South Pole. Explorers(探險家)used to think that a place so cold would have a heavy snowfall. But less than ten inches of snow falls each year. That is less than half an inch of water. Ten times such much moisture(濕度)falls in parts of the Sahara(撒哈拉沙漠).
