Question

In "The Dream Comes True," how does Tenzing Norgay develop the idea that he's setting the record straight about his Mount Everest climb with Edmund Hillary?

A.by presenting specific details from Hillary's written account of the climb and then explaining what he believes are the true facts
B.by explaining how completing the climb successfully as a team brought honor to the mountain and both of their home countries
C.by describing technical aspects of the climb Hillary didn't mention in his account and how these made the climb a greater accomplishment
D.by implying that Hillary could not have safely scaled the summit of Mount Everest by himself without Norgay's help

Answer 1

by presenting specific details from Hillary's written account of the climb and then explaining what he believes are the true facts

Answer 2

The correct answer is C. by describing technical aspects of the climb Hillary didn't mention in his account and how these made the climb a greater accomplishment.

He doesn't exactly present specific details from Hillary's account. He simply recounts the adventure from his own perspective, mentioning some technical aspects that had been unknown previously. But the main purpose of Norgay's account is to describe that the climb was great precisely because it was impossible to do it alone.
