Direction: Read the given passage carefully and answer the questions that follow. |
It was clear that to climb Annapurna the right men had to be sufficiently high up on the mountain to make their attempt on the peak while still fresh and strong. To ensure that, a chain of high camps must be established and the greater part of the work done by the Sherpas, so that the mountaineers would not tire themselves before they were in a position to attack the peak. Like all other expeditions to the Himalayas, the Frenchmen were to realize the value of the hard mountain people, without whom they would soon find themselves too helpless to achieve their goal. |
