Here Are The NCERT Solution For Class 10 English First Flight Poem

Thinking about the Poem 

Question 1:

There are many ideas about how the world will ‘end’. Do you think the world will end someday? Have you ever thought what would happen if the sun got so hot that it ‘burst’, or grew colder and colder?

Answer: The way the world will “end” is the subject of several hypotheses. Absolutely, I firmly think that the world will end at some point, as we all know that everything that starts has an end. This also applies to the rest of the globe: if the Sun were to explode due to extreme heat, all life on Earth would cease to exist right away since the earth could not withstand the intense heat. Conversely, it is evident that life will die in the absence of sunshine if the Sun continues to become cooler. We know that sunlight is a plentiful supply of energy for every planet in our solar system.
