The poor (1) CHOICE of using (2) SIBERIAN ponies instead of sled dogs to transport the supplies for the 1700 mile trip (3) EVENTUALLY proved to be the (4) MAJOR reason for Shackleton's failure. Having to pull their own supplies and facing the (5) UNSEASONABLY bitter winds caused (6) THEM to lose precious time, food, and (7) ENERGY. (8) ALAS! After traveling (9) NEARLY 850 miles, Shackleton and his men were forced to turn back, even though they (10) WERE within 100 miles of the South Pole. Both Ernest Shackleton and Edgewood David were knighted because of their (11) EFFORTS, for Shackleton returned with invaluable information, and David and his men had (12) ACTUALLY reached their (13) DESTINATION.

You must be getting tired.

Numbers 1 and 2 are wrong.

Yes, 4 is an adjective

Look up 7 and 11 in a dictionary.

The others are correct.
