Explanation
A zone is an area or place that is used for a special purpose or has certain rules. For example, “This is a no-parking zone.” It can also mean a state of focus, like she was in the zone while studying, which means she was focusing very well. It also means to divide an area into parts or to set limits for a reason, such as the city zoned the land for schools and parks. Zones help organise spaces (like school zones, time zones, or play zones), and make them easier to manage. Zones help people know where something begins or ends and what they can or cannot do there.
