Failure: the Endurance became stuck in the ice, crushed and sank, which made a failure.
Success: Inspired by Shackleton, the crew didn't give up and survived, which was a great success.

…好吧，碰巧有一天早上我买了份报纸，看了一则关于南极探险队的广告。同伟大的欧内斯特沙克尔顿爵士去南极探险——这是我梦寐以求的冒险。我已经准备好了。19岁的时候，我身体健康而且精力充沛。然而，当我申请加入探险队时，沙克尔顿拒绝了我，因为他认为我太年轻，不合格。但我对与他们同行的想法非常感兴趣，于是我偷偷地上了“坚忍”号轮船，在一个小橱里。不幸的是，我们出发三天后，我被发现了。沙克尔顿不想回头，所以他给我提供了一份工作，但他保证，“如果有人要被吃掉，那你就是第一个!”他让我当一名伙计，我现在做28个人一天三顿的饭菜。
当我回来告诉他们我去过的神奇的地方时，大家该会多么羨慕我啊!

这段路程并不轻松。正当我们接近南极时，“坚忍”号被海土的浮冰卡住了。周围的冰都冻结了，我们千真万确地被困住了!我们看到船被冰挤坏了。当船沉没时，我们的心也随之沉没。
在我们弃船之前，沙克尔顿镇静地把我们召集在一起，告诉我们要抢出我们最基本的给养——小船、食物、炉子、蜡烛、衣服和毯子。现在不是恐慌的时候。我们不准带走大部分私人物品，沙克尔顿自己也扔掉了所有的金子。但令我们感到惊讶的是，他让赫西留着他的班卓琴。赫西经常弹班卓琴来保持我们的精神振奋。
我们现在在冰上扎营，我们一直在设法生存，但春天来了，冰很快就会开始融化。

When he thought about the living conditions on the island
How did Blackborow’s feelings change
我们已经苦苦挣扎了好几天，但是大象岛上的情况越来越糟。我们现在挤在一条船上，在这个悲惨的地方的岩石海岸上。我们到达后不久，沙克尔顿就离开我们，去1320公里外的南乔治亚求援，这趟航程太危险和困难了我们所有人都无法乘小船上路。如果沙克尔顿失败，我们是否有营救的希望吗 不，世界上没有任何海军在大象岛停留过，也没有人知道我们在这里。
我感到情绪低落。寒冷多风，岛上没有植物。有时我们能抓住海豹或企鹅来吃。否则，就没有食物了。我尝试着想一些更快乐的事情:体面的食物暖和的衣服、舒适的卧室、阳光明媚的日子以及妈妈的脸…然而，这些美好的回忆很快就被突如其来的冷风打断了。
angry, impatient

regretful, grateful
trying to be optimistic
trying to cheer up
我大喊:“关上门!”“要坚持住啊，珀西。你可不要变成另一个汤姆。”传来一声回答，“我们又抓了一只企鹅，所以今晚是企鹅汤!”
保佑弗兰克 怀尔德，我们的领袖欧内斯特 沙克尔顿之外最善良的人。我怎么能变得像托马斯 奥德 里斯一样自私又脾气暴躁!
如果没有弗兰克和欧内斯特，我们现在都已经死了。他们对他人的真诚关心，他们的毅力和决心使我充满希望。
毕竟，我们内部也许还是有机会回家的。
