Answer:

While passing over a tree or a tall building an opposite charge may be induced causing a lightning to strike the tree or a building and if the charge is large it may cause severe damage and may prove to be fatal. Thus, it is advised to stay away from tall buildings or tree during thunderstorms.

Explanation:

Trees attract lightning because they provide a path for lightning to travel from the storm cloud to the earth. ... Lightning most often strikes oak, elm, pine, tulip, cottonwood, ash, maple, sycamore, hemlock and spruce trees.
