pls answer it fast......​

Answer 1

This is from Ruskin Bond’s diary

which states about the silent miracles of nature. The diary starts on June 24th.  It is talking about the first day of monsoon

mist.  When the mist starts, the birds

will fall silent and everything there looks as if the whole place has been

covered with a blanket.  The trees which

have been ringing with the sound of birds have become deathly still. All this

makes the mist look melancholy.  In this

weather, Biju was calling his sister and she was able to hear him but could not

see him.

June 25: The climate was too cold

it was warm and the cobra lily was the first one to let out its head.  This season stole the privacy that the mist

gave.  When a school boy asked him to

describe the place in one sentence, he said, “A paradise that might have been.”

June 27 : Brought visitors like

leopard and leeches.  The leopard first

takes a dog and then it tries to take Biju’s cow but his mother chased away

with her high pitched scream.  The author

was willing to donate some blood to the leeches.  The author then talks about scarlet minivets,

the female has yellow colour and wherever on the tree, it looks as if that

branch has been adorned with a jewel.  It

always remained silent so most of the time, it would go unnoticed. But these

are driven away by a pair of drongos who were unnecessarily aggressive.  There is also a creeper climbing high on the

oak tree and while climbing it eats the insects and because it is raining and

warm there is no dearth of food for the birds.

Aug 2 : It had been steady

downpour of tropical rain and the author feels one with the rain though it

doesn’t let him sleep and  inspite of it making

the tin roof to leak, he feels nice to feel the sound of the rain on top and

silence with in.

Aug 3: The sun has come out. A

woman is seen chopping up sticks, a cow has come out grazing and its bell is

heard.  A crow is cawing on an oak

tree.  A beautiful song of whistling

thrush emerges like a “dark sweet secret from the depths of the ravine.”

Aug 12: They have continuous rain

for 9 days and no one was able to come out. 

Few who had work carried umbrellas. 

As it was raining, it was not cold but otherwise, everything was wet and

soggy. It was filled with flowers like wild balsam, dahlias, begonias, and

ground orchids.

Aug 31: the rains have come to an

end; this is explained with the flowers and plants.  He could see cobra lily seeds turning red; he

could visualize fern becoming yellow. As of now, they are firm, green and

upright. Ground orchids, mauve lady’s slipper and white butterfly orchids are

blooming brightly.  Snakes and rodents

have come out and filled the roofs, attics and godowns.  When a “shrew” comes inside the house, the

children gets amused but no one was allowed to kill it because it was felt that

it would bring money.  This becomes true

when the author gets a cheque.

The author writes on October 3.

Now there is snow and winter rain.  After

the “hailstorm” the whole place gets covered with beautiful golden light.

Jan 26 : The author is feeling

lonely because of the climate and of his friend who had given him company for a

short period.  There was complete

silence.  He could hear the sound of rain

on leaves, lemons and on roof.  There is

mist and there is heavy rain throughout. 

The trees have gone grey to add to his melancholy.

March 23: winter season ended and

hail storms started.  It helped the sky

to clear and rainbow to be formed. 

I hope this will help you
