Answer 2

1. People were not happy because the sun moved too quickly across the sky, causing their crops to not have enough time to grow and ripen. 2. Māui was a demigod and a hero in Polynesian mythology. He was known for his mischievous and clever nature. 3. Maui went to the island of Hawaiki to trap the sun. 4. Maui and his brothers hid in a large pit or hole in the ground to protect themselves from the scorching heat of the sun. 5. Maui and his brothers used ropes made from flax to trap the sun. They laid the ropes as a snare, and when the sun rose in the morning, it became entangled in the ropes. 6. Maui wanted the sun to slow down its movement across the sky so that people could have more daylight and time for their crops to grow. 7. Maui made an arrangement with the sun that it would move more slowly in the mornings, allowing people to have longer days and giving their crops more time to grow.
