I grew up in Australia and was introduced to traveling at an early age. We moved around a lot because of my father’s work. My main hobby was radios - I repaired old sets and listened to various programs from around the world. I had a map of the world on my bedroom wall with pins on it and I wrote postcards to foreign radio stations. I was an only child and I didn’t have many friends; instead I tried to contact the outside world. We didn’t have a television, so what I learned came from the radio and from encyclopedias. By the age of 13, I could draw maps of countries from memory and name all the capital cities.

A. He spent time fixing radios that were broken.

C. His friends thought he was rather strange.
D. He watched programs about people in other countries.
