Insight Intermediate Unit 2 Reading

The text states that there was a lot of media interest in Amelia's journey across Antarctica. This indicates that the statement is true.

Amelia carried a photograph of Ernest Shackleton with her to the South Pole. This suggests that Amelia had a personal connection or admiration for Shackleton and wanted to have his photograph with her as a source of inspiration or as a reminder of his achievements during her journey to the South Pole.

Amelia's achievement of becoming the youngest person in history to ski to the South Pole is a fact that can be verified. This means that it is true that she holds this record, making the answer "True" correct.

Amelia's dad had not been on expeditions to the South Pole.

Amelia was not able to keep in touch with some friends during her trip.

The statement says that David and Amelia crossed the Antarctic alone, but the correct answer is False. This means that David and Amelia did not cross the Antarctic alone.

The statement says that Amelia spent some time preparing for the trip by training in the Arctic region. However, the answer is false because the statement does not provide any information about whether Amelia actually trained in the Arctic region or not. The statement only mentions that she spent some time preparing for the trip, but it does not specify where or how she trained. Therefore, we cannot conclude that she trained in the Arctic region based on the given statement.

The statement suggests that Amelia's sisters had been to the South Pole before she made her journey. However, the correct answer is false, indicating that Amelia's sisters had not been to the South Pole before her.

The statement is false because Ernest Shackleton was not the first person to ski to the South Pole. The first person to ski to the South Pole was Roald Amundsen in 1911. Shackleton attempted to reach the South Pole in 1909, but he was unsuccessful.

Amelia did not find it difficult to sleep at night because of the cold.
