Part 2: Read the text and choose the best answer (A, B, C, or D) to each question (2 points/ ea)
 Much of the information we have today about chimpanzees comes from the long-term research of
the great conservationist Jane Goodall. Jane Goodall was born in London, England, on April 3, 1934. On
her second birthday, her father gave her a toy chimpanzee named Jubilee. Jubilee was named after a baby
chimp in the London Zoo, and seemed to foretell the course Jane’s life would take. From an early age,
Jane was fascinated by animals and animal stories. By the age of 10, she was talking about going to
Africa to live among the animals there. At the time, in the early 1940S, this was a radical idea because
women did not go to Africa by themselves.
 As a young woman, Jane finished school in London, attended secretarial school, and then
worked for a documentary filmmaker for a while. When a school friend invited her to visit Kenya, she
worked as a waitress until she had earned the fare to travel there by boat. She was 23 years old. Once in
Kenya, she met Dr. Louis Leakey, a famous paleontologist and anthropologist. He was impressed with
her thorough knowledge of Africa and its wildlife, and hired her to assist him and his wife on a fossil-
hunting expedition to Olduvai Gorge. Dr. Leakey soon realized that Jane was the perfect person to
complete a study he had been planning for some time. She expressed her interest in the idea of studying
animals by living in the wild with them, rather than studying dead animals through paleontology.
 Dr. Leakey and Jane began planning a study of a group of chimpanzees who were living on the
shores of Lake Tanganyika in Kenya. At first, the British authorities would not approve their plan. At the
time, they thought it was too dangerous for a woman to live in the wilds of Africa alone. But Jane’s
mother, Vanne, agreed to join her so that she would not be alone. Finally, the authorities gave Jane the
clearance she needed in order to go to Africa and begin her study.
1. What is the main source of information about chimpanzees?
A. the research of Jane Goodall B. the research of some conservationists
C Jane Goodall’s father D. recentre search
2. What does the name of the toy chimpanzée refer to?
A. Jane’s father B. her favorite toy C. a baby animal D. her close friend
3. Which of the following is NOT true about Jane?
