VI. Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the questions.

Freya Stark lived during the time when people considered explorers as heroes. She travelled to some
remote places in the Middle East. Not many Europeans, especially women, had travelled there
before. Also, she travelled a lot in Turkey, Italy, Nepal and Afghanistan.
She had no formal education as a child, but she moved around with her parents and learnt French,
German and Italian. In 1912, she entered London University. When World War I started, she joined
a nurse group and worked in Italy. After the war, she returned to London and went to the school of
Oriental Studies. Her studies there became useful during her journeys in the Middle East. These trips
enabled her to finally become fluent in Persian, Russian and Turkish.
At the age of thirty-three, she travelled to Lebanon in 1927. When she saved enough money, she
started learning Arabic. In 1928, she travelled by donkey to Jebel Druze. During another trip, she
went to a remote area of the Elburz, where she made a map. She was searching for information
about an ancient Muslim group known as the Assassins, which she wrote about in The Valley of the
Assassins (1934). This book helped her win the Gold Medal from the Royal Geographic Society.
Twelve years later, she continued her travelling and writing career, creating a style combining the
description of her journeys with her discussion of the people, places, customs, history and politics in
the Middle East.
