(i) the cricket wanted some food from the ant. Explanation: ... ants gathered food in spring so that they can eat happily un winter but the cricket enjoyed spring and as the result he had no food to eat.
(ii)He'd repay it tomorrow; If not, he must die of starvation and sorrow. If the ant does not give him food and shelter, the cricket will die of lack of food and disappointment. The poet refers to the ant as "miserly" here.
(iii)Some common synonyms of piece are division, fragment, member, part, portion, section, and segment.
