The correct answers are these two options: “but the towers themselves look blind” and “shattered image of a man or a god”. Taken from the short story “<em>By the Waters of Babylon</em>” by Stephen Vincent Benét (1937), the passage presented above narrates the moment when John, the son of a priest, visits the Place of the Gods. <u>The Place of the Gods</u> or <u>The Dead Place</u> was a great city that was destroyed by a great burning and it was said to be inhabited with spirits and demons since then. Since the passage describes this <u>desolate place</u>, the writer used a suspense tone in the narration. By definition, desolation is the state of a place that is completely empty or where everything has been destroyed. In this case, the two options “<em>but the towers themselves look blind</em>” and “<em>shattered image of a man or a god</em>” are the correct phrases that describe the details of a destroyed, desolate place which is <u>the Place of the Gods</u>.
