Sample answer: I would like a garden with flower beds, a small herb area, a hedge and a shaded sitting place. The flower beds would add colour, the herbs could be used at home, the hedge would make the garden look neat, and the shaded place would be useful for sitting and reading.
Question 3

Read the title of the poem. What comes to your mind when you read the word ‘concrete’? Does it have more than one meaning? Share your answers with your classmates and teacher.
How to answer:
Think of where you have heard the word “concrete” before. Try to recall both a physical meaning and another everyday meaning.
View Sample Answer
Sample answer: The word concrete first makes me think of the hard material used in buildings and paths. It can also mean something clear, definite or specific. So the word can have more than one meaning.
