Correct Answer: could survive
Solution : The second option is correct.
None is already mentioned in the sentence, and two negations cannot be used. Thus, to maintain the past tense and make the sentence grammatically accurate, did not survive should be replaced with could survive.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: None of the soldiers could survive when trapped in the glacier.
