Reаding Pаssаge #2 INSTRUCTIONS: Read the passage abоut famоus female explоrers. Then answer the following 5 questions. A Mention the word "explorer" and you might think of men such as Marco Polo, Ibn Battuta, and Jacques Cousteau. However, through the years, a number of female explorers have traveled the globe. At the time of their travels the world was a more difficult and dangerous place for women, and their adventures deserve to be more widely known. B One such explorer was Isabella Bird. She was born in England in 1831 and died almost 73 years later in Scotland. During her long life, Bird experienced many exciting and remarkable adventures, despite the fact that she was often sick. (It is not possible to say exactly what was wrong with her, although her illness may have been due to a skin infection.) Bird's adventures began in 1854 when she traveled to the United States of America. While there, she wrote many letters to relatives back home, and these were later collected and published as a book. She returned to the United States in her 40s, and traveled around the Rocky Mountains in particular. In later years, Bird visited Japan, Korea, and other Asian countries. Due to her achievements Bird was the first woman to become a member of the Royal Geographical Society. C Annie Smith Peck was another great female explorer. Like Bird, she was born in the nineteenth century - in 1850 - and died in the twentieth century, in 1935. Unlike Bird, however, Peck was born in the United States. As a young woman, Peck received only a high school education. She wanted to attend university, too, but was not accepted because she was a woman. Peck did not let this stop her, and at the age of 27, she achieved her goal of going to university. In 1885, Peck fell in love with mountain climbing. One of her most famous climbs was reaching the top of the Matterhorn in Switzerland in 1895. Somepeople were shocked because Peck climbed in trousers, which were considered unsuitable clothes for women at that time. It seems Peck did not let this negative reaction bother her as she continued climbing all around the world.
