1. Read the passage given below and answer the questions that follow. (10)

1. On June 24, 1859, Emperor Napoleon III and Franz Joseph I engaged in the Battle of Solferino, commanding a combined

total of about 27,000 troops onto the field for a single day of battle. Nearly 40,000 were dead, injured, or missing, many of

whom were simply left to die on the battle field. Later, spectators crowded the fields, looking for loved ones, searching for

items they could sell, or simply taking in the horrors of the battle. A Swiss businessman and social activist Jean Henri Dunant,

who was travelling in Solferino witnessed all this.

2. Jean Henri Dunant witnessed the atrocities of war as well as the countries not prepared or equipped to ease the suffering

of those who had been injured in the battle of Solferino. Dunant organized a group of volunteers to help bring water and

food to the injured, to assist with medical treatment, or write letters to the families of those who were dying and urged the

public to create an organization which would assist the wounded, regardless of which side they fought for during times of

war. His writing inspired countless others to rally behind him in the creation of the International Federation of the Red Cross.

3. The modern-day Red Cross began by devoting itself largely to disaster relief and epidemic treatment. This effort continues

to this day. One of the easiest ways you can help the Red Cross is to make sure you are able to donate blood and make an

appointment at the Red Cross website. But, donating blood isn’t the only way you can help out – the Red Cross also

encourage donating your time if you can. This is what the Red Cross wants everyone to know. x) The synonym of ‘atrocities’ as given in paragraph 3 is _______.

xi) Give a suitable title to the passage.

xii) A Swiss businessman and social activist Jean Henri Dunant heard all the truth about the war. (t/f) answer it please as fast as you can.​
