Answer:
Death is an important part of life.
Explanation:
Death is a natural process, and is an important part of life.
By reading the excerpt, we can understand the following -
Death, upon being trapped in the pear tree, couldn’t play its part by taking away lives.
The diseased old aged who consider death to be a relief, couldn’t die.
The hospitals lost a major part of their business because death became evitable, and hence, nobody needed treatments.
Observing and realizing all the above facts, we realize that avoiding death would violate the rhythm of life. It’d also disrupt the balance of life.
Thus, death is inevitable, and must be that way.
