Q1. According to the advertisement, what kind of men

Q2. Would you like to join an expedition like this Why

According to the advertisement, Shackleton was looking for men who were not interested in money or comfort, but in honour and achievement, which cannot be bought.
I would like to join an expedition like this. Although it would be extremely tough, the sense of achievement I would get from doing it would be worth it. I don’t think I could get the same feeling from anything else.

Shackleton showed kindness when he allowed Blackborow to stay on the ship and gave him a job. He showed calmness when he asked the crew to collect essentials. He showed he was not selfish when he left his gold behind, but showed he was thinking of others’ feelings by allowing Hussey to keep his banjo. He showed great bravery by setting off to find help for the rest of the crew.
Blackborow was enthusiastic at first, making sure he got on the expedition. Although he felt low later, he tried to think about better things, showing again his positive character.
The Endurance sank, so they never made it to the South Pole, which was a failure.
Successful: Inspired by Shackleton, the crew didn't give up but persevered, trying their best to stay optimistic, which was a great success.
Failure:
