To chase the birds away from the papads

Step 1: The story says birds try to eat the papads that Grandma dries on the terrace. Step 2: Anu and her sister help Grandma by chasing the birds away. Step 3: Watering the plants is done to help Grandpa, not Grandma. Step 4: Watching stars and sleeping are things they enjoy but are not ways they help Grandma. Step 5: So the correct answer is chasing birds away from the papads.

The stars

Step 1: The story says, 'We love to watch the stars at night.' Step 2: This happens when they sleep on the terrace. Step 3: Birds are seen during the day near the papads, not at night. Step 4: Plants are watered in the morning. Step 5: The story specifically mentions 'stars', not just the moon. So the correct answer is the stars.

Chase

Step 1: In the story, Anu and her sister 'chase the birds away.' Step 2: To chase means to run after someone or something to make it leave. Step 3: 'Spend' means to use time doing something. Step 4: 'Bright' means full of light. Step 5: 'Beautiful' means very pretty. So the word that means 'run after to make go away' is chase.

Garden

Step 1: A noun is a naming word — it names a person, place, animal, or thing. Step 2: 'Garden' is a place, so it is a noun. Step 3: 'Run' is an action word (verb), not a naming word. Step 4: 'Big' is a describing word (adjective), not a naming word. Step 5: 'Quickly' is a manner word (adverb). So the noun here is 'garden'.
