Read the following passage and answer the questions given below it in the context of the passage. .I was very fond of the old soldier in our little town. He had only one leg, having lost the other somewhere in Assam in 1942. He used to tell me about his adventures. He told me that he had run away from home to join the army. He had experienced his first battle in the Libyan desert. Out of his dozens of war stories, the one I liked best was the one of his escape from a Japanese prison-of-war camp in Burma. He told me again and again how he walked two hundred miles in two weeks. On the way he was bitten on the toe by a poisonous snake and he had to cut off part of the toe in order to survive. But by the time he got to an Indian camp the wound had turned septic and the leg had to be amputated. He is, however, quite contented with his lot.

Explanation:
A noun may be a word that generally functions as the name of a specific object or set of objects, like living creatures, places, actions, qualities, states of existence, or ideas. Lexical categories are defined in terms of the ways in which their members combine with other kinds of expressions. A verb may be a word that in syntax generally conveys an action, an event, or a state of being. within the usual description of English, the essential form, with or without the particle to, is the infinitive. In many languages, verbs are inflected to encode tense, aspect, mood, and voice.
