A 2-dimensional drawing would be comprised of flat shapes: squares, rectangles, triangles, circles, etc. A 3-dimensional drawing would be made of shapes that imply depth: cubes, pyramids, cones, spheres, etc.

A scaled drawing is referenced to an "original" drawing or object and is proportionately the same as the original. Scaled drawings allow one to draw the original in a larger or smaller size (scale) without changing how the individual parts of the original relate to each other.

What is the scale and why scale must be considered when the draughtman drawing the plan?

Scale is how much smaller(or bigger) the drawing is compared to the real object. It'd be real awkward if you were drawing a house to have to make the drawing as big as the house would be. But for the drawing to work out you need to know how to translate between the drawing and reality - so you decide something. Scale 1:12 for instance would mean that something that's one inch in the drawing would be one foot in reality.
