33 C: She wanted to escape her situation at the time:
chose Arabic in the hope that it might provide an opportunity to get away. Distraction: A: a professor
is mentioned but he recommended Icelandic, B: a friend joined her on a trip but that was not stated as motivation to learn Arabic; D: her prior interest was not mentioned
34 B : She took less baggage on her trip than Bell
took. Stark took pride in travelling without servants
or extra belongings, comparing herself favourably in this regard to writer and explorer Gertrude Bell.
Distraction: A they made similar trips but timing isn’t mentioned; C: it states that Bell is Oxfordeducated but no comparison is made with Stark’s education; D: Stark considered herself a more
intrepid traveller but we don’t know that it is because of the route taken.
35 C: She produced interesting accounts of her
expeditions. Freya Stark gained a high degree of respect for her sharp observations and compelling tales of her travels…. people read her books for the descriptions of the journey. Distractions: A the
text states that she did not make any huge new discoveries as an explorer; B: the writer doesn’t
give an opinion on whether she deserved more recognition, though said she gained respect; D She
was able to accurately record unmarked villages and
mountains (so not unreliable).
36 A: She gained access to women more easily than
to men: the only people available to speak with her were the women. Distraction: B: she was more interested in the men at first : Stark might have approached the women as a way of gaining trust and reaching the powerful men; C she got specialised knowledge of the domestic arrangements, costumes
as a result of her contact with women but this was not what she went to study; D: the text states that Stark approached the women.
