Question 1 Robert Scott arrived at the South Pole about a month before Amundsen.

FALSE Scott arrived a month AFTER Amundsen, not before. The word 'before' reverses the fact.

Despite losing the race to the Pole, Scott became more celebrated as a hero than Amundsen.

TRUE The passage says 'Scott became a hero, but Amundsen did not' — even though Amundsen won.

Scott's main reason for his second expedition was to conduct a scientific study of Antarctica.

FALSE The passage says his stated reason was scientific study, but his REAL goal was to be the first at the Pole.
