Directions (Q.Nos. 61-66): Read the poem given below and answer the questions that follow by choosing the most appropriate option.
It takes much time to kill a tree
Not a simple job of the knife
will do it. It has grown
Slowly consuming the earth,
Rising out of it, feeding
upon its crust, absorbing
Years of sunlight, air, water
And out of its leprous hide
Sprouting leaves.
So hack and chop
But this alone won’t do it
The bleeding bark will heal
And from close to the ground
Will rise curled blue twigs
Miniature boughs
Which if unchecked will expand again
To former size. No,
The root is to be pulled out.
