北极 (běi jí): North Pole

Dad pointed at the very top point on the globe and told my little brother that that is the North Pole.

This scientific expedition plans to take an icebreaker to the North Pole this summer to study climate change.

At the North Pole, the sun does not set for several months in a row, and children still play outside at midnight.

Although the North Pole is a bit warmer than the South Pole, in winter it is still so cold that people cannot stay outdoors for long.
