Question : Comprehension:

Read the following passage and answer the questions.

On a cold, wintry Christmas day in 1998, the ice and snow were beating down upon the windows of the vehicles as we travelled to an obscure orphanage in Bosnia and Herzegovina. We battled unstable hills blanketed with two feet of snow. The narrow road forced us to drive perilously close to the edge. This would be my first Christmas away from home and family. I could imagine my wife and my two little daughters opening their gifts on Christmas day. Today, I was going to learn for the first time how it would be to spend Christmas day with other children.

Enemy activity had devastated the villages. I had heard stories and seen pictures of this particular village where we were headed. What I did not know was that it would be a camp full of destitute families and children. As we entered the village, the children lined the roads on both sides and cheered. They ran to us in excitement as we climbed out of our vehicles. Within moments, I saw my soldiers passing out sweets and chocolates and talking with the children. The adults, who were not sure if we could be trusted, kept their distance. But soon, they too were won over by my men. The soldiers unloaded 87 boxes of toys, clothes, shoes, school supplies, and candy. We were soon surrounded by the people of the village, who shook our hands and smiled shyly in thanks for our gifts and our presence.

After the two hour visit, as we rose to leave, the camp leader said to us, "Please come again, even if you have nothing to give. We enjoyed having you here." We had loved every moment we had been there. This year, we truly learned the Christmas spirit of loving and giving!
