Answer 2

There were hardly any trees on the highway.

• The appropriate word to fill the above sentence is "trees"
• The other words which can also appropriately fill the blank are: "speedbreaker", "traffic lights", "animal" etc.
• The word "Trees" is appropriate in this case because, highways are made out by cutting dense vegetation and plantation.
• So, trees are very scarce on a highway.
• Also, the amount of pollution in and around highways is very high for a plant to survive healthily.
• Measures are being taken to keep the environment clean around the highways.
