Question

Q1) Read the passage and answer the following Questions.

☆Forests are an important part of civilization. They not only form a considerable portion of the

national wealth of a country, but also play an important role in maintaining the environmental

balance. Indiscriminate felling of trees to enhance city areas is a threat to our civilization. We often

forget that a peaceful, sensitive and well balanced co-existence of man-made civilization and natural

flora and fauna is absolutely important for human existence on the earth. We forget that

deforestation for the urbanization project led to the destruction of past civilizations such as

Mohenjo-Daro. Indiscriminate felling of trees not only leaves our planet with fewer trees but also

threatens the wildlife of the region. Forests and trees have an enormous impact on the climate as

they are instrumental in drawing rain to the earth. Deforestation has resulted radical changes in our

climate. The overall temperature of the planet is increasing at an alarming rate. The duration of

seasons is fluctuating all over the world. The rate of rainfall is decreasing day by day. The ice-caps at

the Poles are melting as a result. The amount of cultivable land is reducing as a result of

deforestation and less rainfall. The future of this planet is in trouble unless immediate attention is

paid to this danger.
