Malavath was the youngest female to climb Mount Everest. The author probably thinks that its so admirable, the someone the age of 13 can be brave enough to go up Mount Everest because some people have died trying to climb the dangerous mountain.
2. What did she have to do to get selected for the Mount Everest climb? What happened when Malavath reached the advanced base camp?
Darjeeling Himalayan Mountaineering Institute for two weeks. After that, only two younger people were chosen, and one was Malavath. Once Malavath had climbed to the advanced camp, she got altitude sickness and was sent back down to base camp. After three days, she didn't want to give up so she continued climbing.
3. How long did it take the team to get to the summit? What does Malavath hope her achievement will do to help other people?
It took the team 52 days to reach the summit and Malavath hopes that her achievements will inspire underprivileged people and girls all over the world, to try achieve their dreams.
Great answers Rachel. There are another couple of reasons the author thinks it is admirable.
