Answer:
Humans use trees in various ways - to get wood, to make tree houses, to get fruits, to get shade during the summers, for making swings, to play hide and seek, and for many other activities as well.
Question 2:
(i) “Trees are to make no shade in winter.” What does this mean? (Contrast this line with the line immediately before it.)
(ii) “Trees are for apples to grow on, or pears.” Do you agree that one purpose of a tree is to have fruit on it? Or do you think this line is humorous?
Answer:
(i) Trees provide shade during the scorching summer. During winter, trees shed their leaves as people enjoy the sun during winters. Hence, trees are to make no shade in winter.
