Direction for the following Q. no. 52 to 54 :
Read the passage and answer the questions that follow. Your answers to these questions should be based on the passage only.
My informant about the Tibetan civilization is a certain Japanese monk of the name of Kawaguchi, who spent three years in Tibet at the beginning of the twentieth century. His account of the experience has been translated into English and published with the title ‘three years in Tibet’ by the theosophical society. It is one of the great travel books of the world, and so far as I am aware, the most interesting book on Tibet which no European traveler could possibly have had. He attended the University of lhasa, he enjoyed the acquaintance of Dalai Lama himself, he was intimate with one of the four ministers of finance, he was the friend of lama and layman of all shorts and conditions of Tibetans from the highest class to lowest-the despicabel caste smiths and butchers, he knew his Tibet intimately, for those three years, indeed, he was for all practical purposes a Tibetan. This is something which no European explorer can claim, and it is this which gives Kawaguchi’s book its unique interest.
