5、to plant their flags at the bottom of the world, and for decades to come this continent is supposed to be protected as a scientific preserve, shielded from intrusions like military activities and mining .

6、wards the day those protective treaties expire, but also for the strategic and commercial that already exist. C) The newer players are stepping into what they view as a treasure house of resources.

19、 scientific research. But they also acknowledge that concerns about “resource security” influence their moves. K) China’s newly renovated Great Wall Station on King George lsland makes the Russian and Chilean bases here seem outdated. ”We do weather monitoring here and other research.” Ning Xu
