Miss Lee said she had a lot of unforgettable experiences on her journeys.There was     one terrible storm at sea when she was returning from the South Pole.The whole team was     happy to be returning home after a one-year stay at the South Pole.During the storm,    waves reached heights of up to 30 meters.as high as a 10-story building.She stayed calm at     the time and took steps to protect their research findings.She hoped the rescuers would     find them even if they lost their lives.Part of the ship was destroyed and a lot of water     came in.Luckily they all survived,but she came away from the experience with a realiza-    tion about the power of nature.
