1. Read the following passage and answer the following questions that follow:




1.O Henry, a modern writer nicely describes the true love between the husband and wife. Through this story he says that true love sacrifices anything.

2. James and Della were very young. They loved each other very much. They led a peaceful life on twenty dollars a week. Even in poverty they two were very lovable. There was a letter box in their house. An electric button was there. But it did not work. Life is a combination of sobs and smiles. Jim and Della's life was similar to that.

3. They had two precious possessions. They were Jim's ancestral gold watch and Della's lovely brown hair. Her hair was like a brown cascade.

4. It was Christmas Eve. Della wanted to buy a gift for her beloved husband Jim. Jim also had the same idea. They couldn't afford any expensive gifts. Della saved money for Christmas. But it was not enough to buy a gift. When she looked at her hair, she got an idea. Immediately, she reached Madame Sofronie's shop. Della sold her lovely hair for twenty dollars.

5. With this amount she bought a platinum fob chain for Jim. Jim sold his precious watch and bought a set of combs for Della as a Christmas gift. When Jim arrived home, Della showed the fob chain which matched with his gold watch. She also informed him that she had sold her lovely hair. It disappointed Jim. He gave her the beautiful set of combs, for which she was longing. Now Jim told her that he had sold his watch to get a gift for her.

6. Both sacrifice their valuable possessions for each other. Here the gift is not valuable, their boundless divine love is valuable.
