practically ceased, the temperature of the plain rises
as high as 110°F or over, and an intensely hot wind
blows. Trees shed their leaves, grass is almost
completely parches, mild animals of ten die in large
numbers for want to water work is reduced to a
minimum, and the word seems asleep.

Explanation:
The given passage talks about how rains are a crucial part of the Indian climate.
It also talks about the time when rains are scarce - October to May. During this time, cultivation is aided by irrigation.
In summer, the temperature of the plains is about 110° F and no growth is seen.
Organisms have a different reaction to the summer heat. Animals die, while humans have negligible work. Trees and grasses are dry in April.
As the passage puts an emphasis on crops and climate in India, 'Indian Climate and Vegetation' should be the title of the passage.
