6-Sheep shearing is the process by which the woollen fleece of a sheep is cut off. The person who removes the sheep's wool is called a shearer. Typically each adult sheep is shorn once each year (a sheep may be said to have been "shorn" or "sheared", depending upon dialect)

7.sheep shearing is done in summers because in summers the heavy wool on the body of sheep can irritate them. also if the shearing is done in summer so that new wool can grow till winter and they don't feel cold on the winter season.

8.Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand. Maharashtra, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu and parts of Madhya Pradesh are some of the states where sheep rearing and breeding are done for wool.

9. In winter a cotton shirt cannot keep us as warm as a woollen sweater because wool has the capacity of trapping the heat. when the heat is trapped, the body is kept warm. but the cotton doesn't trap the heat.

Answer:

Shearing is the process whereby the sheep's fleece (wool) is removed using mechanical shears called 'handpieces'. ... In order to shear the sheep effectively, the shearer is trained to move the sheep through a series of set movements that make shearing more comfortable for the sheep as well as the shearer.
