someText2.text = "Hills";
}

can someone help me? i am a very very basic understander of c#
This is a good explanation of what a Null Reference Exception is and how to deal with it.
The gist of it is that you're trying to access someObject.someVariableOrFunction when someObject == null, which throws a null reference exception. To fix it, you need to figure out which object field is null when it shouldn't be, and then either prevent it from being null, or handle what happens when it is null.
In your case, it looks like either you don't have a Text component attached to the game object, or you don't have a gameobject linked to your AreaEnterSign field in the inspector. Checking these out should solve your problem.
Side note: If you have two Text components on your object (or any two components of the same type), you won't be able to reach both of them with GetComponent. I suggest linking them in the inspector to make sure the correct text components are assigned to the correct fields.
ok my text is the problem i have checked and it goes null on playmode
