read the excerpt from "lise marie de baissac." after eleven months, the gestapo became suspicious. remaining cool under the threat of capture, baissac was able to return to england unharmed. there she helped to train new agents in parachuting. after recovering from a broken leg sustained during training, she completed other missions, including one in normandy, france, where she worked with her brother claude. based on this excerpt, which word best describes baissac? impulsive unsteady excitable resilient

She does not seem impulsive: she seems to be working steadily towards the goal (defeating the Nazis) (so she is also not unsteady).

I think that the best word to describe her is "resilient" -for example because she went back to work after sustaining an injury.
