Activity 2
"But they can talk to one another like human beings". Discuss with your partner how two houses can speak with each other.
Ans:
Houses cannot literally talk. In this story, the author uses personification (giving human qualities to non-human things). The houses "speak" to each other by sharing their historical memories, building years, and the changes they have seen over time, with the wind carrying their voices.
