Test: The Kite - 1 - Class 6 MCQ

A new kite looks bright in the blue sky because of its vibrant colors and its position against the backdrop of the sky.

The kite dives and dips in the sky as it is flown by someone on the ground, and its movement is influenced by the wind and the person controlling the kite.

Kite soars high due to the power of the wind, which lifts it upwards as it catches the kite's wings. A strong wind can make a kite fly very high in the sky.

'Seems to rest' means that the kite appears to be resting in the sky, but it is actually still being flown and controlled by the person on the ground. It may look like it's resting because it is momentarily stable in the air.

The string is wound when it goes slack, meaning there's less tension on the line. This happens when the kite is not being pulled by the wind, and the person flying the kite has to reel in the string to maintain control.

When a new wind blows, it fills the wings of the kite and helps it to lift off the ground or gain altitude. The wind's force is essential for the kite to fly and remain in the air.

"And up it goes" refers to the kite in the poem, which is being flown and controlled by someone on the ground. The phrase describes the kite's ascent into the sky as the wind lifts it.

'Breeze' is a type of wind, which is a natural movement of air. A breeze is a gentle or light wind that can be felt on the skin and is often responsible for the movement of leaves and other lightweight objects.

The author of the poem "The Kite" is Harry Behn, an American writer and poet. This poem is part of the Honeysuckle English textbook for Class 6 students in India.

A kite becomes a rag when it is stuck in a tree, as it is no longer able to fly and its once-vibrant colors and structure become tattered and worn. The kite loses its original purpose and beauty when trapped in the tree branches.
