Written Comprehension
A Magazine Article

Jacki Hill-Murphy had always dreamed of travelling. But being a mother and a teacher, it was
difficult for her to find time for adventures. In 2007, as soon as her son had left school, she quit
her job and decided to follow her dream. Hill-Murphy wanted to experience the journeys of
female explorers from the 17th and 18th centuries.

First, she set out on Isabela Godin's route. In 1769, Isabela Godin hadn’t seen her husband for 20
years. She led 42 people through the Amazon in order to see him again. The first part of the
journey was spent in a canoe on the Amazon River. After the boat had begun to sink, the journey
continued on land. But then, the people in her group started dying from diseases and Godin was
the only person to survive. Hill-Murphy followed Godin’s voyage up the Amazon River, but with
modern-day medicine and equipmet.

Another woman Hill-Murphy followed was Mary Kingsley. In 1894, Kingsley planned a route to
Africa in order to complete her father’s book about the area. Kingsley wore the long dresses of
the time and travelled with a group of men. She couldn’t change her clothes on the trail as the
men were constantly watching her, so she was often forced to travel wet. When the rest of the
group refused to join her, Kingsley climbed alone to the top of Mount Cameroon, one of Africa’s
largest volcanoes. More than 100 years later, Hill-Murphy repeated Kingsley’s journey, but
luckily, she could do it in dry clothes.

Since then, Hill-Murphy has written books and given talks about female explorers. She has also
continued to lead an adventurous life.
