Answer: Robert Falcon Scott attempted to reach the South Pole first, but was beaten there by Roald Amundsen.
Explanation:
When Scott´s expedition reached the South Pole on January 17, 1912, Amundsen had already been there. Scott´s party had many obstacles during their journey, due to several mistakes in their plan, not simply because of bad luck.

- Whenever we finish a complete thought and start a new sentence, we must use a period.
- The use of commas unfolds into different rules. For instance, when we add an appositive to a sentence, that is, a word or phrase that explains another word, we place it between commas. Commas are also used to separate items in a list, even if each item is an entire clause. Commas also separate introductory phrases from the rest of the sentence.
