He realised that many of us were too ill to survive very long without rescue. He decided to go to South Georgia Island for help. He chose five members to join him on the trip and I was one of them. I have been working on ships for my whole life and my strong navigation skills could guide us across the dangerous sea. However, to my surprise, Shackleton also picked the most difficult and unfriendly member to join us on the trip. I later learnt that he did this because he wanted the group remaining on the island to stay cheerful and positive until we returned. We sailed on very rough seas for days. The sea was so strong that it was almost impossible for me to check our position. I was only able to use my instruments three times during the trip. It scared me to think that we might sail past South Georgia Island. This would mean that we might sail into the open sea and there would be no rescue! Unfortunately, we did sail off-course for a while, meaning we landed on the wrong side of South Georgia Island. We had to climb over the mountains to get help. The mountains looked so steep that I thought we might have to slide down them on our bottoms! When we arrived at the whaling station, Shackleton immediately arranged for a rescue boat to return to Elephant Island. However, due to the rough seas, we could not get near to the island. Shackleton became worried about the men. He was very anxious and began to look extremely old. We tried for three months to rescue the 22 men. Finally, we were able to reach Elephant Island and luckily find everyone still alive! They were overjoyed to see us and everyone began to cry.

B: He is a good leader and is experienced in exploring the Antarctic. So, I think he’s suitable to join the rescue team. C: Hmm, I think we should move on to the next sailor. According to Perce’s diary entries, Frank Wild was left with the other crew members on Elephant Island. A: I agree. Let’s move on to the next candidate. What do you think about Frank Worsley? B: Well, he is …. 候选人，申请人 A: OK, we need to choose the two sailors that joined Shackleton’s rescue team. Let’s look at our choices. B: So how about Frank Wild and Tom Crean? They were both experienced in exploring and living in the Antarctic, and they also had many good qualities, such as being kind and strong. C: Yes, but look at Perce’s diary. Frank wild stayed on Elephant Island with the others. So we can cross him off our list. B: Oh, yes, well spotted. Then what about Tom Crean? Anyone have any ideas? A: Well, he was good at living in the Antarctic, so maybe he stayed on the island to help, but I think his strength and bravery meant that Shackleton would have chosen him for the dangerous mission. B: Agreed, so one choice is Tom Crean. OK, let’s move on to another candidate. How do you feel about Frank Worsley? A: I think he is a good choice because he was an excellent navigator. C: I agree. The rescue team needed a good navigator. He could be our second choice. B: But what about Hubert Hudson? He was also good at navigating. A: Yes, but he was also the best at catching penguins, so I think he would have stayed on the island with the others so they had enough to eat. C: Sounds reasonable. But we should also look at Thomas Orde- Lees. He was an excellent skier, so maybe he could be helpful on the mission. B: Hmm…maybe, but I think he didn’t have as much to offer as Frank and Tom. Besides, Perce complained about him in his diary, so I think he probably stayed on the island. A: I agree, so let’s choose Frank and Tom. Talking Project Suppose you are Shackleton and you are going to choose two sailors to join the rescue team, who would be your first choice? After you have selected your two sailors, present your choice to the class. My group chooses Frank Worsley and Tom Crean as the two members for the rescue team.
