Answer

Bumoni lives in Assam, a state in India. Her house is near a river and a national park where wild animals like elephants and tigers live.

Answer

A backyard is the area behind a house. Bumoni’s backyard is bursting with banana trees where her family gets food and materials.

Answer

It means the backyard is completely full of banana trees—so many that it looks like it might burst! It shows how rich and green the area is.

Answer

They use every part: eat bananas, make boats from stems, make bowls, eat banana blossoms, and use leaves as plates. After eating, they toss the leaves into a pit for cows to eat.

Answer

A national park is a protected forest area where wild animals live safely in their natural home. Bumoni’s house is near one with elephants, tigers, and rhinos.

Answer

A herd of wild elephants came from the national park and ate the bananas and leaves for three nights. They trampled the backyard, which made Bumoni’s family upset.

Answer

Trample means to walk heavily on something and crush it. The elephants trampled the banana trees while eating the leaves and fruits.
