Sample Answer:
I would like to have a butterfly garden filled with colourful flowers such as marigolds, sunflowers, and lavender. I would also include a small fountain, benches, and a path made of pebbles. The garden would be enclosed with a wooden fence and decorated with stone sculptures. I love this type of garden because it would attract butterflies and birds, making the space lively and peaceful. It would be a perfect place to relax and enjoy nature.
III. 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.
Answer:
Sample Answer:
When I hear the word ‘concrete’, I think of hard grey cement or building material. But the word can also mean something I’m clear and real, like a ‘concrete example’ in language.
Yes, the word has more than one meaning: Literal meaning: Cement or stone (like in Mrs. Jones’ garden).
Figurative meaning: Something specific, real, or definite (as in a clear example). This double meaning is a play on words or pun, which makes the poem’s title interesting.
