B Correct answer
Explanation

Roald Amundsen from Norway was the first person to reach the South Pole on December 14, 1911. He led a well-planned expedition using dog sleds and skis, beating Robert Falcon Scott's British team to the pole. The other names are either misspelled or associated with different polar explorations - Robert Peary reached the North Pole, not the South.
