NCERT Solutions for Class 2 Hindi Chapter 25 Sabse Bada Chhata

Question 4. Why would we not see any fish in a rain, even if the rain were heavy?
Answer: The structure of a fish's body is designed in a way that lets water flow past it when it swims down. Fish have gills instead of lungs, and they take in oxygen from the water through these gills. During rain, the water level goes up, but it does not reach the air - fish live only in water, not in air. Rain falls from above into the water body, yet this water stays separated from where the fish move about.
In simple words: Fish live in water and breathe using gills. Rain comes from the sky, but it just adds more water - it does not bring fish into places where there was no water before.

Exam Tip: Remember that fish need water to survive and breathe - the question tests whether you understand that rain alone does not create new fish habitats.

Question 4. Which animals came to the rain?
Answer: From the rain, Bistar (a term for several animals), Amma's goat, Dadi's cow, and the whole city became active and wet with water.
In simple words: When rain came, animals like goats and cows also got wet because they were outside.

Exam Tip: Look for sentences that name specific animals when answering questions about "which animals" appeared in the text.

Question. From the rain - looking at the game with fingers and hands
Answer: This is an entertainment and indoor game that develops focus and thinking. This is a type of genuine skill-based training in which the fingers' movement and the brain's speed work together. Through different patterns in this game, even children build their strength and learn to think fast. Music combined with this skill, and practice with variations of steps, both help children grow smarter.
In simple words: The game using fingers and hands makes children smarter and faster at thinking, just like sports makes their bodies stronger.

Exam Tip: When describing games or activities, mention how they help children learn or develop new skills.

Answer: Last week on Wednesday my younger sister came home from school. The path had heavy rain pouring down. There by myself, one girl was going somewhere because my friend was also with me. Together both of us went to her house at 3 o'clock. For the next portion after school, when rain was still coming down, the weather seemed right for playing sports.

With this simple explanation, a student can understand the passage clearly - on one afternoon during rain, the narrator and their friend walked to the friend's house after school, and despite the wet weather, they saw it as a chance for outdoor play. Every detail in the answer supports the main ideas of the story: timing (3 o'clock, right after school), setting (rain, the path), and characters (narrator, friend, younger sister).
In simple words: A girl went to her friend's house after school when it was raining. Both of them thought the wet weather was good for playing outside.

Exam Tip: When retelling a story, mention the when, where, and who - these details help readers understand what happened and why it matters.
