Question 4
Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow:
On May 29, 1953, two men reached the top of Everest, the highest mountain in the world
One was Edmund Hillary, a New Zealander, and the other was Tenzing who was a
Sherpa, a native of the Himalayan mountains. These two men of different races shared
the honour of the historic climb. But that climb, in itsell, is not the only reason why
I have put Tenzing in this book I have put him in because he is the only man I can
3
think of, in modern times, who was born in a poor and primitive tribe, far away from
civilisation, and yet has won worldwide fame Tenzing's mother and father were the
very simplest of peasant farmers. He never went to school. When he was a small boy,
his job was to help to look after his father's animals, which were sheep and goats and
yaks, and he never had time to learn to read or write. Yet now, the name of Tenzing is
known all over the world, and he has won his fame not just through luck, but because
of his own skill and character, and because when he was a boy he had a single great
ambition and has stuck to it all his life His ambition was to climb the mountains round
his home, and his home was near Everest and Everest was the highest mountain he
could see, so his special ambition was to climb to the top of that mountain
15
When Tenzing was a very small boy, his father used to send him out with the herds
of yaks, while they were grazing In summer, the yaks went high up the mountain sides
above the flowering forests, to crop the grass which grows just below the snow and
glaciers and the vast rock walls of the high peaks. Many of Tenzing's people believed
that the mountain peaks were the homes of gods and demons, and Tenzing was half 20
afraid of them, yet even then, out alone with the herds, he used to dream daydreams,
and imagine that one day he would climb to the highest summits and see what was
on the other side, and perhaps even visit the holy cities of Tibet, which his parents
had told him lay beyond the mountains. The whole of Tenzing's life is the story of
how he made this dream come true
