Pt: O vento soprava forte na tundra ártica, como um gigante invisível.

Pt: Diogo, Marta e Tiago pisaram no gelo branco que se estendia em todas as direções.
En: Diogo, Marta, and Tiago stepped onto the white ice that stretched in all directions.

Pt: O brilho do sol refletido na neve forçava-os a semicerrar os olhos.

Pt: Diogo era um investigador de vida selvagem, determinado e curioso.

Pt: Marta, a sua irmã, e Tiago, o seu cunhado, estavam ali para ajudar.
En: Marta, his sister, and Tiago, his brother-in-law, were there to help.

Pt: Todos sabiam que este lugar era belo mas também perigoso.
En: They all knew this place was beautiful but also dangerous.

Pt: "Precisamos encontrar o primeiro ponto de observação," disse Diogo, olhando para o mapa.
En: "We need to find the first observation point," said Diogo, looking at the map.

Pt: Eles caminhavam com cuidado, evitando fendas no gelo.
En: They walked carefully, avoiding crevices in the ice.

Pt: A primavera no Ártico trazia um ligeiro alívio do frio intenso, mas os ventos continuavam implacáveis.
En: Spring in the Arctic brought slight relief from the intense cold, but the winds remained relentless.

Pt: O trio montou o seu acampamento, uma pequena tenda no meio da vastidão gelada.
En: The trio set up their camp, a small tent in the middle of the icy vastness.

Pt: A tarefa não era fácil, mas a missão valia o esforço.
En: The task was not easy, but the mission was worth the effort.

Pt: Era o terceiro dia quando o primeiro problema surgiu.
En: It was the third day when the first problem arose.

Pt: "O equipamento para medir a temperatura parou de funcionar," relatou Tiago, frustrado.

Pt: Sem ele, a pesquisa estava em risco.
En: Without it, the research was at risk.

Pt: Diogo parou para pensar.
En: Diogo paused to think.

Pt: "Podemos usar a ferramenta de Tiago para consertá-lo?"
En: "Can we use Tiago's tool to fix it?"

Pt: sugeriu Marta.
En: suggested Marta.

Pt: A ideia parecia difícil, mas Diogo sabia que tinham de tentar, ou voltariam de mãos vazias.
En: The idea seemed challenging, but Diogo knew they had to try, or they would return empty-handed.

Pt: Enquanto Tiago tentava reparar o equipamento, Diogo sentia a pressão a aumentar.
En: While Tiago tried to repair the equipment, Diogo felt the pressure mounting.

Pt: O tempo passava e as condições assustavam-no.
En: Time was passing, and the conditions were daunting.

Pt: Mas desistir não fazia parte do seu dicionário.
En: But giving up was not in his vocabulary.

Pt: Com paciência e engenho, eles conseguiram uma solução temporária.
En: With patience and ingenuity, they managed a temporary solution.
