In 2010 she met with U.S. Special Envoy to Pakistan and Afghanistan Richard Holbrooke. Ellick remembers being with Malala in a coffee shop after the meeting. "She said, 'I want to get ice cream . . . I love vanilla ice cream,'" Ellick recalled. "Here is this girl that can go from being at a negotiating table, a high-level diplomatic meeting, but she also wanted ice cream." Ellick remembered another time when they were out shopping in Islamabad, having fun and hunting for English language books and DVDs. "I was disappointed that she wanted some trashy American sitcoms," Ellick laughs. "I kept telling myself, 'I know you want her to want to watch a documentary about Sierra Leone but she is just a girl.'" Which statement best describes reporter Adam Ellick’s viewpoint?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Malala displays the characteristics of both capable activist and a bright young girl.

Explanation:

Malala was the youngest Nobel Prize winner. She won this award for the Pakistani fight for the right to education of girls and teens in her country. This fight began early, when the Taliban fundamentalist group, which had controlled since 2007 the village where Malala lived, demanded the suspension of classes given to the girls. Malala became an activist for the right to girls education and because of her activism, she was attacked when Taliban agents shot her in the head.

In the excerpt showing the question, Ellick recounts how his meeting with Malala went after she had attended an important meeting. He says that despite being a notable activist, Mala is just a girl who likes ice cream and American comedies. He also says this may even disappoint people, but besides being an activist, Malala is just a bright young girl like all girls.
