Read the following passage carefully:

Trees are of importance not only to man but also to birds and animals. The
branches of trees give shelter to millions of birds and forest give shelter to
numerous wild animals. We value trees not only for their usefulness but also for
their beauty. They have a way to refreshing the eye and also refreshing the
mind. Perhaps that is why the rishies of olden days were drawn to the forests,
and they and their peoples chose to going forest homes in company of Nature.
In modern times when Rabindranath Tagore started a school, he too chose a
place full of trees and called it Shanti Niketan or the home of peace.

Once upon a time large areas of India were covered with forests full of
numerous kinds of trees. As the population grew, trees began to be cut down for
mans use. That is how the wonderful forest described In our ancient poems
came to be destroyed, and a great part of our forest wealth was lost. Now we are
trying to replace this loss, and our government wants trees to be planted all over
the country. A new festival called ‘Van Mahotsava’ has been started for this
purpose. Since trees are the country’s wealth we must consider it our sacred
duty to protect them. We should plant new trees wherever we can and look after
them well.
