Verified by Toppr

To describe Page as "self-made" implies that she did not hold formal credentials as a historian, but rather had pursued the study of Alaska's history out of her own interest. Therefore (3) is correct. The passage does not contain information to support choice (I) .Therefore it is incorrect.
