Why would large holes have been made in the fort?
From
the large wells on the top of the fort, the army could have a view of the large
area outside. In this way the fort can be protected. Also, since the advance of
the enemy army is known in advance, there is time to deal with it.
What
is the difference between a view from a straight-flat wall and a view from a
high bastion?
A
single front view can be seen from a straight-flat wall. While viewing from a
high bastion one can see distant objects in different directions. This is the
main difference.
What
would be the help to the soldiers by hiding behind the bastion and attacking
through the holes?
Attacking
through holes while hiding behind the bastion gives the soldiers the protection
of the wall. Also, soldiers in the fortress can target enemies outside the
fortress as they can see them. But as the enemy army cannot see the soldiers in
the fort, the soldiers are saved.
What
happens if our house has no electricity for a week? Where can it be difficult
to work without it?
Our
house will be dark without electricity for a week. It has to be run with small
lamps or lanterns. Without electricity we cannot run fans, mixers, ovens,
washing machines, heaters, water pumps etc. Also, we cannot use mobile, TV, AC,
computer, internet service etc.
Thus,
without electricity, our businesses, industries, factories, banks, electric
trains and our day-to-day activities would come to a standstill.
