Leia o texto a seguir e responda às questões de 33 a 36.

SINS A “VENUS” GOES HOME AFTER A NEAR-200-YEAR ODYSSEY IN EUROPE, SAARTJIE Baartman, a.k.a. the “Hottentot Venus,” will finally return home. In 1810, the young Baartman was lured away from her Khoisan kin in South Africa, under the illusion that she would earn a fortune by showing off her body in the Northern Hemisphere. Instead she became the star of various “freak shows” from London to Paris, where she was ogled by the masses and “studied” by scientists fascinated by her so-called exotic ethnicity and dramatically protruding genitalia.

Baartman’s exploitation continued long after her death in 1815. Her genitals and brain were displayed at the Museum of Mankind in Paris until the 1970s for all to gawk at. But now those years of firm indignities may be about to end. Nelson Mandela and other politicians have long demanded that Baartman’s remains be returned for a proper burial in her native land. And last week the French Senate passed a law providing for just that. Perhaps this will at last bring to a close one of the sordid chapters in African colonialism.
