Q.30
Read the given excerpt and answer the questions 30-32 based on it :
Saidi’s car approached an imposing gate flanked by enormous concrete walls of a kind Mahmoud had never seen before in the streets of Baghdad. Night had fallen, and Saidi had taken a series of turns in Jadriya to avoid a traffic jam, so Mahmoud no longer knew where they were. The gate opened, and they drove down a long, deserted street lined with busy eucalyptus trees. The farther they went, the quieter it became. The sound of the traffic and the police sirens faded into the distance.
At the end of the street they turned into a side lane, and Mahmoud saw police cars parked alongside an American Hummer and some civilian cars. A man in uniform waved them into a parking space.
Mahmoud and Saidi got out of the car and were escorted into a two-story building by a man in civilian clothes. Saidi turned to Mahmoud. ‘So, you don’t have any appointments or anything’ he said with his usual smile. ‘Today we’re going to have lunch together.’
They went into a grand office, and as soon as they entered, Mahmoud could smell an apple-scented air freshener.
