Drawing Conclusions from Text
Livingstone was deliberately silent about the river's angry
hippopotamuses, hungry crocodiles, and malaria-
carrying mosquitoes. Moreover, in spite of these dangers,
he was anxious to return to the Zambezi. He believed that
if he could prove it was navigable, it might become a
"highway into the interior" and open the continent up to
trade. If successful commerce were established, it would
compete with and even wipe out the inhumane slavetrade
... Although Britain had made slavery illegal in 1833,
Livingstone was disgusted to discover that others
continued to practice it.
