Passing content of a file as arguments of a program in bash

I'm writing a bash program called "run" that is invoked as follows:

./run file program

"run" runs "program" using the content of "file", which are the command line arguments for "program".

For example, if program is a function "add_two_num" and "file" contains one line: x y, then "run" will run

    ./add_two_num x y

and store the output to another file.

I don't know how to use the content in "file", any help is appreciated! :)
