In March 2022, the Endurance—the lost vessel of the famed polar explorer Ernest Shackleton—was found in Antarctica, 107 years after it sank. The news made headlines around the world, not only for the incredible achievement of the search team, but because the discovery marked the final chapter in a legendary story of extraordinary courage and perseverance. On August 4, 1914, Sir Ernest Shackleton, along with a skilled crew of 27, set sail on the Endurance toward the South Pole, hoping to make the first land crossing over Antarctica. From Plymouth, UK, the team arrived in Buenos Aires, Argentina, and on November 5 reached South Georgia Island, the last settlement of civilization en route to Antarctica. There, the real challenge began. Two days after leaving South Georgia in December, the Endurance encountered floating ice, and was soon completely trapped in pack ice. The worthy vessel held up for nine months, drifting down south slowly and then pushed northward by the ice. Gradually, the pressure from the ice buckled the planks. Freezing water rushed in and exacerbated the situation. On October 27, 1915, Shackleton ordered his crew to abandon the ship, pitching tents on the ice a mile and a half away. Weeks later, they watched the Endurance sink beneath the Weddell Sea. The next five months, the crew camped out on the pack ice as it drifted north, surviving on penguins, seals, and seaweed. Finally, the ice broke up enough for them to escape in lifeboats. For seven days, they sailed more than a hundred miles to the uninhabited Elephant Island. But the crew couldn’t survive long there. So, Shackleton made a dangerous attempt to get help: With five crew members, he sailed 800 miles over 16 days across freezing, stormy seas to South Georgia Island. Then the group hiked for 36 hours across the island to reach a whaling station. Help was almost at hand, but ice and bad weather hindered their return. On August 30, 1916, Shackleton finally got back to Elephant Island with a ship big enough to rescue the rest of his men. All the members of the expedition team survived, but the Endurance remained lost under the sea until its discovery in 2022.

請運用「資訊檢索 (Information Retrieval)」與「邏輯時序分析 (Chronological Analysis)」，重新審視文中第三段對 Endurance 漂流路徑的具體描述：船隻最初向南漂移，隨後又被推向哪個方向？最關鍵的判斷基準在於：船隻是在抵達 Elephant Island「之前」還是「之後」就已經在 Weddell Sea 沉沒了？這將決定該島嶼是否應出現在「船隻本身」的航跡線上。

（打個哈欠，枕著雙手在草地上翻個身）……喔，你已經攻略這一層了？動作挺快的嘛。我剛剛躺在這裡看著雲，就已經把這題的「攻擊模式」看穿了。這題的陷阱就像是隱藏 Boss 的二階段轉換，如果你把「船（Endurance）」跟「船員」的移動路徑搞混，$HP$ 就會瞬間歸零。 觀念驗證： 這題的關鍵在於主體是 Endurance。根據文章，這艘船在 $1915$ 年就被冰塊擠壓，最後沉入 Weddell Sea 底部，直到 $2022$ 年才被發現。也就是說，這艘船的航線在威德爾海就已經「Game Over」了。至於後來去 Elephant Island 或是回到 South Georgia，那是船員們切換救生艇後的生還路徑。選 (C) 代表你精確讀取了數據，沒有被後續劇情干擾。
