Science and Our Life

Today is 28th February. It is World Science Day. There is a science exhibition in Kartik’s school. The Maths-Science Club of the school is in charge of the exhibition. (Kartik visits the science exhibition with his mummy.)
Kartik : Mummy, hurry up.
Mummy: Are we late for your science exhibition ?
Kartik: Yes, because it is really very important for me and also for you.
Mummy : For me ?
Kartik : Yes. For you, too !
Mummy: OK. We have already reached your school.
Kartik: Wow! All parents have come. What an atmosphere of the school! Come, mummy.
Mummy : Take it easy. (Now they are at the entrance.)
Kartik: Look, here are the three sections,

  • Environment
  • Health Plus
  • Agriculture.

Mummy: Where shall we go first ?
Kartik : To the Agriculture section.
Mummy : Why ?
Kartik: Because I am interested in it. Then we will go to the section of Environment, And after that, we will visit the Health section. Let’s go.
Mummy: OK.
Kartik: Hello, Prachi! What is your project about ?
Prachi : Hello, Kartik ! Hello, Aunty! My project is on terrace gardening and hydroponics method of agriculture.
Kartik : What is that ?
Prachi: Nowadays, because of urbanization, we have no enough space to grow trees or plants. Therefore we should use terrace for gardening and for that, hydroponics method of gardening. In this method, we have to make layers of stones on plastics on the terrace. With their help, plants can stand. After that, plants will be planted at appropriate distance. And then give them water. We can also use PVC pipes. By hydroponics method, we can grow vegetables and fruits.

Mummy : OK.
(They are at another science project.)
Vasant: Hey ! Kartik ! Hello, Aunty !
Kartik : Hey! What is your project about ?
Vasant: The project title is ā€˜Bamboo and Banana are the Best’. Really, bamboo is a wonderful plant because there are many uses of it. The bamboo is very strong therefore it is used to build bridges. We can make many ? things like fences, fishing rods, rafts, baskets, furniture, etc. A plant may grow eighty feet or even more. Some times it shoots up three feet in a single day!GSEB Solutions Class 8 English Sem 2 Unit 4 Tell Me Why 6
Kartik : It’s wonderful!
Mummy: How is music produced in a flute ?
Vasant: It’s magic The bamboo has joints all the way up the stem. The stem is hollow between the joints. So we can play on a flute. See these pictures.
GSEB Solutions Class 8 English Sem 2 Unit 4 Tell Me Why 7
Kartik : What about the banana tree ?
Vasant: Yes! The banana tree is also very useful, because its leaves, flowers, trunk and fibres are important. Banana leaves are large, flexible and waterproof. So they are used as food containers or plates. It is also useful : in making cups, papers and dishes.
Mummy : Really useful! I have heard that we can make sari from banana. Is it true ?
Vasant: Yes, it is right. The Nepalese give the rough material to Rugmark, an institute which stands for child labour. It is also known as Good Weave International. They make clothes. ThisĀ  institute helps to abolish child labour. In Tamil Nadu, weavers weave fibres of banana and make saris.

Anjana : Hey ! Kartik ! Hello, Aunty ! My project is about ā€˜Health is Wealth’. Herbs and spices do more than add flavour to a dish. Spices and herbs are really very useful to our body. See the chart.
