The Big Questions (page 41)

1. Mukhya landforms kaunse hain aur jeevan aur sanskriti ke liye unka kya mahatva hai?

Teen mukhya landforms mountains, plateaus aur plains hain; registaan ek aur hai. Ye jeevan ke liye zaroori hain kyunki ye jalvaayu, paani, mitti aur kaam tay karte hain: pahaad barf jama rakhte hain jo nadiyon ko paani deti hai, plateaus mein khanij hain, aur plains ki upjaau mitti kheti ke liye hai. Sanskriti ke liye bhi: Kailash aur Everest jaise pahaad poojey jaate hain, nadiyan aur unke sangam pavitra hain, Kalidasa jaise kaviyon ne Himalayas ki stuti ki, Thar ke samudaay registaan ke geet gaate hain, aur Tamil Sangam kavita ne apne paanch tinai landscapes pe banaaye.

2. Har landform pe jeevan ki chunautiyan aur avsar kya hain?

Landform	Avsar	Chunautiyan
Mountains	Saaf hawa, nazaare, tourism, teerth yaatra, pashupaalan, jungle, barf se bharti nadiyan	Khadi, ubad-khaabad zameen; landslides, avalanches, cloudbursts, flash floods, thand, zyada paryatak
Plateaus	Khanij aur mining, jharne, lava plateaus pe kaali mitti	Kai jagah pathreeli, kam upjaau mitti
Plains	Upjaau mitti, kheti, machhli, aasaan nadi-yaatra, kai shahar	Bheed, pradooshan, girta bhoojal, baadh
Registaan	Anokhe paudhe, jaanwar aur sanskriti	Bahut kam baarish, garmi ya thand

Let’s Explore: aas-paas ke nazaare (page 42)

School ke aas-paas (sample): maidaani shahar ke school se samtal zameen, khet, sadkein aur koi nadi ya nehar dikhti hai; 50 km tak zameen samtal hi reh sakti hai, jabki Western Ghats ya Himalayas ke paas ka school jaldi pahaadiyon tak pahunch jaayega. Groups ko aksar dikhta hai ki pahaadi ilaakon mein nazaara maidaanon se jaldi badalta hai.

Ek safar (sample): Delhi se Shimla ki train yaatra Haryana ke samtal kheton se, phir Kalka ke paas tarhati se, aur phir terrace fields aur pine ke pedon waali khadi, jungli pahaadi dhalaanon se guzarti hai. Mumbai se Pune ka safar tateeya maidaan se khade Western Ghats chadhkar Deccan Plateau pe pahunchta hai.

Think About It: barf (page 43)

Barf paani ki thos roop mein varsha hai. Jab oonchaai pe hawa kaafi thandi ho, to baadalon ki bhaap jamkar chhote baraf ke crystal banti hai jo judkar narm safed flakes bante hain aur baarish ki jagah barf girti hai. Ye Kashmir, Ladakh, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Sikkim aur Arunachal Pradesh jaise Himalayan ilaakon mein girti hai, kyunki ye oonche aur thande hain. Ole bhi jama hua paani hain, par ye baraf ki sakht goliyan hain jo garmi ke toofaan mein bhi gir sakti hain.

Kalidasa ke shlok (page 46)

‘Pashchimi se poorvi samudra’: pashchim mein Arabian Sea aur poorab mein Bay of Bengal. Kavi kalpana karta hai ki Himalayas, yaani ‘parvaton ka raaja’, subcontinent ke poore uttar mein ek samudra se doosre tak faila hai; India ke map pe ye uttar mein Jammu and Kashmir se Arunachal Pradesh tak dhanush ki tarah faila hai.

Ganga ka zikr kyun? Kai wajahein: Ganga Himalayas mein, Gangotri ki barf se, janm leti hai; ye India ki sabse pavitra nadi hai; iska girta paani pahaadi hawa mein thandi phuhaar bhar deta hai; aur ye dikhaati hai ki pahaad neeche ke maidaanon ko jeevan kaise dete hain.

Let’s Explore: pahaadi zindagi ki chunautiyan (pages 49–50)

• Landslide: dhalaan se mitti ya chattaan achaanak khisak jaati hai, aksar tez baarish ke baad ya jab sadak ke liye dhalaan kaati jaaye. Ye ghar dabaa sakti hai aur dino tak sadkein band kar sakti hai.
• Flash flood: achaanak sthaaniya baadh, aksar cloudburst ke baad, jo patli ghaatiyon mein bina chetaavni ke bah nikalti hai aur pul, ghar aur khet baha le jaati hai.
• Be-lagaam tourism: bahut zyada paryatak traffic jam, plastic ka kooda, paani ki kami aur naazuk dhalaanon pe nayi imaaratein laate hain, aur usi maahaul ko nuksaan pahunchaate hain jo unhe kheenchta hai.
• Avalanche: barf, baraf ya chattaanon ka achaanak girna, aksar jab barf pighalne lage. Ye gaon, sadkon aur parvataarohiyon ke liye khatarnaak hai.
• Bhaari barfbaari: sadkein aur darre band ho jaate hain, gaon kat jaate hain, aur khaana, eendhan aur dawa pahunchaana mushkil ho jaata hai.
• Cloudburst: chhote ilaake pe achaanak, tez baarish ka toofaan jo minuton mein bahut saara paani gira deta hai, jisse baadh aur landslides aate hain.
• Thand: lambi, jamaane waali sardiyon mein kheti sirf chhote mausam mein hoti hai, aur roz ki zindagi, yaatra aur garam rehna mushkil hota hai.

Log phir bhi wahan kyun rehte hain: pahaad unka ghar hain, parivaar, zameen, paramparaon aur tyohaaron ke saath; hawa saaf aur nazaare sundar hain; jungle, jharne aur nadiyan lakdi, paani aur khaana dete hain; pashupaalan, terrace farming, tourism aur teerth yaatra se rozi milti hai; aur pahaadi samudaayon ne sadiyon mein in chunautiyon ke saath jeena seekh liya hai.

Let’s Explore: duniya ke map pe landforms (page 53)

Book ke map (Fig. 3.8) ke colour code se:

Let’s Explore: satellite view (page 54)

• Ganga plain tasveer ke beech ka chauda hara hissa hai, uske kheton aur fasalon ka rang.
• Upar ka safed hissa barf se dhake Himalayas hain, kuch baadalon ke saath.
• Neeche-left ka bhoora hissa kam hariyaali waali sookhi zameen hai, pashchim ke registaan aur pathreeli oonchi zameen ki taraf.

Let’s Explore: nadiyan aur ghoomne ki jagahein (pages 55–56)

Pavitra udgam aur sangam (udaharan): Uttarakhand mein Gangotri (Bhagirathi, Ganga ki mukhya dhaara, ka udgam) aur Yamunotri (Yamuna ka udgam); Devprayag, jahan Bhagirathi aur Alaknanda milkar Ganga banaati hain; Prayagraj, Ganga aur Yamuna ka sangam; Amarkantak, Narmada ka udgam; Talakaveri, Kaveri ka udgam; aur Trimbakeshwar, Godavari ke udgam ke paas. Apne ilaake ke udaharan chuno.

Nadi ki yaatra (sample notes): aarthik kaam jaise machhli pakadna, logon ya ret ko le jaati naavein, kapde dhona, sinchaai ke pump, aur kinaaron pe khet; saanskritik kaam jaise tyohaaron pe snaan, ghaaton pe pooja aur deepak, moorti visarjan, aur kinaaron pe mele.

Questions, activities and projects (page 58)

1. Tumhara shahar aur uska landform

Sample: Lucknow Ganga plain mein hai. Chapter ki baatein jo aas-paas dikhti hain: samtal zameen, upjaau mitti, gehun aur chaawal ke khet, nadi (Gomti), sinchaai ke liye nehrein aur tube wells, aur badi aabaadi. Shimla ka koi pahaad bataayega: khadi dhalaanein, seedhiyan, pine aur deodar ke jungle, sardi mein barf aur tourism.

2. Chhota Nagpur se Prayagraj aur Almora ka safar

• Chhota Nagpur (plateau): uthi, lehraati zameen, lagbhag samtal upari hissa aur khade kinaare, pathreeli mitti, jungle, coal aur iron ki khaanein, aur Hundru jaise jharne.
• Prayagraj (plain): Ganga plain ki samtal, neechi, upjaau zameen, gehun aur chaawal ke chaude khet, Sangam pe milti Ganga aur Yamuna, aur kai shahar aur gaon.
• Almora (pahaad): Uttarakhand ki Himalayan pahaadiyan, khadi dhalaanein, seedhi-daar khet, pine aur deodar ke jungle, ghumaavdaar sadkein aur barf se dhaki chotiyon ke nazaare.

3. Teerth sthal aur unke landforms

Landform	Teerth sthal
Pahaad	Kedarnath, Badrinath, Amarnath, Vaishno Devi, Hemkund Sahib, Sabarimala
Plateau	Deccan Plateau pe Pandharpur aur Shirdi, Amarkantak
Plains	Varanasi, Prayagraj, Bodh Gaya, Amritsar, maidaan ke kinaare Haridwar
Tat	Puri, Rameswaram, Dwarka

4. Sahi ya galat

• Himalayas gol chotiyon waale naye pahaad hain. Galat: ye naye hain, par oonchi, nukeeli chotiyon waale; gol chotiyan Aravalli jaise puraane pahaadon ki hoti hain.
• Plateaus aam taur par kam se kam ek taraf khade uthte hain. Sahi: inki kuch taraf aksar khadi dhalaanein hoti hain.
• Mountains aur hills ek hi prakaar ke landform hain. Sahi: dono oonchi zameen hain; hills neechi, kam khadi dhalaanon aur gol choti waali hoti hain.
• India ke pahaadon, plateaus aur nadiyon mein ek jaise paudhe aur jaanwar hain. Galat: har maahaul ke apne paudhe aur jaanwar hain, jaise pahaadon mein conifer aur yak.
• Ganga, Yamuna ki sahaayak nadi hai. Galat: Yamuna, Ganga ki sahaayak nadi hai.
• Registaanon ke paudhe aur jaanwar anokhe hote hain. Sahi.
• Pighalti barf nadiyon ko paani deti hai. Sahi.
• Maidaanon mein jama nadiyon ki talchhat zameen ko upjaau banaati hai. Sahi.
• Saare registaan garam hote hain. Galat: Gobi thanda registaan hai, aur kuch experts Antarctica ko bhi registaan kehte hain.
