Answer:
The author in "On his blindness" refers to his blindness.
Explanation:
Jorge Luis Borges, the author of this poem, suffered from blindness and that is what he reflects in this poem.
What he means when he says "it breaks things down into a single thing, colorless, formless" is how he sees things because of blindness, as formless and colorless things.
This poem has a melancholic tone. The blindness that came to Borges in 1955 meant a great change for him, since he was a lover and fond of reading.
I looked this question up and found it online. Even without the crossword puzzle, we can answer it because of the hint sentences. They are as follows:
1. I ________ pictures.
2. I ________ my grandfather.
3. I ________ exercises.
4. I ________ books.
Answer:
1. I draw pictures.
2. I help my grandfather.
3. I do exercises.
4. I read books.
Explanation:
For this question, we need to both unscramble the verbs and decide where they go.
If by looking at the scrambled letters you find it difficult to figure out what word they spell out, the best strategy is to read the sentences. They offer context. For example, suppose you couldn't figure out EARD. When you see "I _______ books," you will quickly realize that EARD spells READ because what we usually do with books is read them. The same works for the other sentences.
