Disclaimer for the first four questions: The purpose of this section is to encourage the students to interact with the elders and know about their livelihood when they were children. The answer may vary according to the students' observations and experiences. It is highly recommended that the students prepare the answer on their own.

The answer for the last part is as follows:
