Read the following passage and blacken the letter A, B, C, or D on your answer sheet to
indicate the correct answer to each of the questions.
Columbus crossed the Atlantic Ocean three times. His first voyage brought him fame
and popularity - he discovered a new continent. But he had enemies who wanted to get rid of
him. On his second voyage the Government of the country that Columbus himself discovered
threw him into prison.
He was sent back to Spain as a prisoner. But Columbus succeeded in proving that the
lies his enemies spread about him were untrue, and the Spanish Government gave him four
ships to start on a new voyage. But this third voyage was unfortunate from the beginning. The
ships were met by terrible storms and the time he reached the shores of Haiti, Columbus lost
three of them. The remaining ship was about to go down when Columbus reached the island.
It took Columbus almost a year to return to Spain. He was unhappy, disappointed and
broken in health. Worst of all, everyone forgot his achievements. He died in poverty in 1506
without knowing that he discovered a new world. Before Columbus died, another traveller
named Amerigo Vespussi returned to Spain. He travelled along the coast of the land that
Columbus discovered, and he proved that it was not the coast of India, as Columbus thought,
but unknown continent.
For a long time the new continent was called the New World. But at last, they decided
to name it America, in honour of Amerigo, whose voyage showed it was not India. America
was discovered by Columbus in 1492. It was named America in 1506, the year in which
Columbus died.
